Birdwatchers Paradise Lodge in Monteverde

zuletzt aktualisiert am 05.01.2010

New – ‘Tina’s Birdwatcher’s Paradise Lodge,’ exclusively for nature lovers!!

Tina's Birdwatcher's Paradise Lodge is the perfect choice for nature lovers that don’t want to be confronted by hectic and bustling tourism. Bird watching is an easy experience right from the sunny terrace at the lodge in the amazing Monteverde area in Costa Rica.

Its quiet location on the 3 acres of former farming land called &quot,’Finca Cielo Verde&quot, (Finca Green Sky) is beautiful. Birdwatchers can observe wildlife right from the large terrace, which is surrounded by primary forest and country side, with lots of flowers and coffee, and banana plants.

Walking on our trails, you can watch toucans, trogons, quetzals, the three-wattled bellbird, motmots, manakins, parrots, hummingbirds, toledos, hawks, woodpeckers, butterflies and other winged beauties of this zone with a little bit of luck. We have also seen a variety of mammals such as raccoons, opossums, agoutis, foxes, bats, which come right to the house at night time, between other more shy species.

‘Finca Cielo Verde’ has a special location. Birds and animals stay there in the mountains, as further down the Pacific slope the forests have been cut. Enjoy views of the mountains and of the Pacific Ocean from our trails.

Being only 7 minutes away from the centre of often noisy and touristy Santa Elena, gives you easy access of other attractions of Monteverde. Tina's Birdwatcher’s Paradise is protected from the wind and off the gravel road. For this reason days are warm and dust is not a bother. The huge terrace invites you to enjoy the Sun.

Many tour providers pick you up for free right at the farm’s entrance.

The spacey 36 square meters sized cabin is brand new. It is built with an artistic rustic touch. There is a fully equipped kitchen and a wonderful hot shower. In the sleeping room we provide 2 double beds and one single bed. As a special you find a Costa Rican fireplace with a cosy sitting area, to relax during cool nights.

Have a wonderful cup of our coffee every morning. We produce 100% organically coffee on the farm. See some of the plants right beside the house, or, get a branch of our peppermint plant and prepare a fresh cup of tea.

We are trying to reforest ‘Finca Cielo Verde’ as it was some 20 years ago. With the help of the ‘Monteverde Institute,’ who provide native trees, we help endangered species to survive.

For Tina it's a pleasure to assist guests with information and arrangements of the things to do in Monteverde and other parts of Costa Rica.

You can not find Birdwatcher's Paradise Lodge in any guidebooks yet, because it is a new place to stay. It is created by the same owner as ‘Cabinas Tina's Casitas,’ which are very positively recommended by the 'Lonely Planet,' 'Let's Go,' 'Reise Know How,' and other important travel guidebooks of Costa Rica.

Tina and her daughter Laura moved here, out of Santa Elena centre, to be able to enjoy the beautiful nature of Monteverde, 2 years ago, when tourism started to boom.

Free pick up from the bus stop in Santa Elena is provided.
