We stayed here for 1 night but wished we could have stayed longer. Johnny (I think he is the owner or manager), could not have been more hospitable. He welcomed us with a coffee and snacks after a long journey from Nicaragua. He arranged a room with 2 single beds into a double room with air conditioning even though the hotel was busy. He also helped us with transport and recommendations for activities, as well as showing and telling us about all the wildlife that surrounds the hotel. He is so kind. The hotel is very cute and comfortable. The breakfast was filling and delicious, and you eat it whilst sat outside listening to the birds and nature. Would absolutely stay here again!

This is a great place with a lot of value for the money. The only thing better than the location and surroundings were the people there, especially Kenyer who really took his time to show me around and did everything to make me feel welcome. He even spoted a sloth in a tree on the property. The pool area is great and although the water is a bit cool, it is chlor free as it comes directly from a river. Very refreshing. Breakfast was great as well. The outdoors shower in the bungalow a bliss. All in all one of the best places I've stayed in terms of feeling relaxed and welcomed.

Our family travels nearly half the year, across continents and lodging types, and NEVER have we received such a warm, thoughtful, and over-the-top welcome! I mentioned when booking that we'd be staying the night of our youngest daughter's 2nd birthday. Some accommodations place a little note in the room; I thought it'd be a nice touch for her baby book. The host reached out prior to our arrival stating they'd do a little something for her and I was already so touched. But when we arrived, we walked into a chalet filled with personalized balloons, a birthday sign, cupcakes, a candle, AND a note. Needless to say, both our girls were elated and my husband and I were completely blown away by the host's care and love toward our littlest. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts!! You made a long travel day so special, and a little girl's 2nd birthday an unforgettable one! On another note, the chalet itself is beautiful: modern, nicely situated in nature, and possibly the best-equipped rental we've ever stayed in. They have every kitchen appliance under the sun, a very obvious 1st aid kit (just in case), and a wonderful washer out back. Even more impressive is how spotlessly clean the place was - we were amazed! We'd highly recommend!

This is a forest hut lodge indeed, on the cacao farm. Pictures reflect it well. What is not seen on the pics is the spotless cleanness and the hospitability. Huts are modern and well equipped. Fine chocolate drinks, good brekky. Recommended.

FAQs about hotels in Bijagua

What guests said about Bijagua:

Bijagua is a small Costa Rican town.

Bijagua is a small Costa Rican town. It’s not a tourist town. You are very submerged in the culture. Learn some Spanish. Everyone was kind. We ate at several restaurants. We shopped at the grocery. We seemed to be the only tourists. It seemed very safe. The food was EXCELLENT! We drank the water. Read up on tipping. Stray dogs are everywhere. Do NOT pet them at the restaurants. We did the Sky Bridge Tour in Bijagua (a little hard to find - it’s at a resort) and the Tree Top Chocolate Tour. Both we excellent. We hiked to the Rio Celeste waterfall. That is not an easy hike. It’s through the jungle. Wear boots! Snakes are a VERY REAL. We also did tubing down the river. SO FUN!!!

We drove from SJO to La Fortuna, to Bijagua and then to Puerto Viejo. We stayed for two night in each place and I probably would have loved to stay 3 night to have two full days in each location. Internet service was in and out while driving through the smaller areas (even if you pay T-Mobile for the Int'l service). We paid for a hotspot from our car rental (Adobe Rental Car) which was helpful to always be connected. Be sure to watch for the narrowing "one-lane" bridges, the potholes in some areas, and the locals on motorcycles. It's best to not drive at night if you are not familiar with the roads because some areas do not have lights and it can start raining at any time. We went into town (maybe 15 minutes away) to buy drinks and snacks from the market and ate at local spots. Soda Irma serves huge plates with this incredible pickled onions and jalapenos. We also enjoyed the local brewery, Blue River Brewery - you have to order the Chifrijo bowl.

The location within the valley was great, with short walks through the neighborhood to other areas full of birds. There was a very good restaurant about 100 meters away and a well furnished kitchen. The beds were comfortable and everything was very clean, and sitting on the verandah drinking our morning coffee or a glass of wine in the afternoon listening to and watching the birds was very relaxing and pleasant. There were panederias, restaurants and markets within easy walking distance of the property.

Absolutely gorgeous area and a must-see for nature lovers!

Absolutely gorgeous area and a must-see for nature lovers! Tenorio National Park was wonderful, although quite crowded, so get there as early as possible. I highly recommend the hanging bridges trail at the Heliconias lodge because it was incredible and hardly anyone was there. We also got to see toucans on the road up there.

The town is essentially a series of businesses along Rte 6, a major road heading North/South. It’s about 1 mile in length. Beautiful vistas coming from the south and heading between the 2 volcanoes of Tenorio and Miravalles. The town is not picturesque but it’s surroundings are. Besides hiking to the waterfall and the lagoon of Rio Celeste, which is an amazing color, there’s not a lot to do (or not a lot to do that you haven’t done elsewhere in CR). For bird watchers, Cano Negro Wildlife Refuge and its boat tours on the river and lake come highly recommended. 2 nights of accommodations is good for most people. We stayed at Finca La Amistad, a working cacao farm, which I highly recommend. Bucolic surroundings, great owner and staff, nice accommodations and a nice chocolate tour makes it a great place to stay.

Great little hike, we were happy to have Jose, as our guide.

Great little hike, we were happy to have Jose, as our guide. He was very knowledgeable and fun. We only wished his english or our spanish were better! We saw lovely birds, including scarlet macaws, a bat, monkeys, lizards. The park has 2 access points and the unofficial one was better as it was more natural and you didn't hear traffic noise.

It was a great location to get to the Rio Celeste hike early in the morning, only a few minutes away. The hotel staff was great. The pool was lovely. The room was spacious and clean. They had proper recycling bins on the grounds! We had a nice private porch looking out onto the rainforest. We inquired about a night tour (to see frogs, snakes, etc.) and they recommended a guide ($US25 each). The tour was very interesting.

The bungalow was very nice. It seemed recently renovated, the view from there - if weather allowed - was great. Staff was nice! During breakfast one could see quite a few birds including tucanes. The wald at the hotel ground with the hanging bridges in the woods was very nice, as was the guided tour to the laguna, even though it was very muddy and wet. It was a nice stay!

The finca is placed in the forest. Pretty quit there which we like a lot. Very friendly welcome and very nice accomodation with a veranda view into the jungle. Evening meal great. Next morning we had the (free of charge) 1 hrs cacao tour. A place where we would have liked to stay a little bit longer if we would have had some extra time left.

One of the most friendly hostel stuff we've ever met. They helped us organizing our trips and gave some more advices what to do around Bijagua. Furthemore, they prepared us a very large and delicious breakfast every morning. There was lots of space in the dorm room to store our luggage. The kitchen was well-equipped.

Great property standing in extensive grounds and has its own three hiking trails! Excellent location for visiting Rio Celeste. The lovely Belgian owners make their own pralines & hot chocolate which were delicious!
