Birds & Breakfast Costa Rica

Pros: we loved to stay at this place. The people there are super nice and helpful and make you stay special. Breakfast was amazing! The view and all the birds there is becautiful as well. The room is super nice and the bed is soo comfortable. It is a very nice place to stay for 2-3 night, relaxing, watching birds and making day trips to la Fortuna and surroundings. We also did the night walk there and we loved it!

A dream come true

Pros: It was absolutely amazing. I honestly can’t imagine another place where you can see this many birds. It truly felt like a bird paradise. Breakfast was a dream… like watching a nature documentary, but in real life and right in front of you. The owners were incredibly kind and really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable while showing you all the beautiful birds around. They also offer night tours (which we sadly didn’t get to do since we only stayed two nights), but that just gives us a reason to come back.

Cons: The first night we stayed in one room where the mattress wasn’t that comfortable for us, but the second night we were in another room and that one was good.

Pros: Marce and Fabio were so welcoming and the breakfasts every morning were delicious. There were so many birds on the feeders, including motmots and toucans. We also walked around the surrounding woodland and saw a trogon. On the night tour we saw an opossum and many frogs! Marce and Fabio were very accommodating, helping with our food deliveries on a couple of nights, providing a dehumidifier when my camera equipment got wet after a rainy walk and surprising my boyfriend with birthday cake!

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: The birds and the breakfast! Everything was perfect

Don’t hesitate. Book it!

Pros: Great location for breakfast bird watching Great breakfast with sausage and cheese Great night walk

Had an amazing time, learned so much, Fabio and Marcela were so friendly and welcoming!

Pros: Loved the setting of the property, I felt like I was staying with friends at a cabin. It was the perfect place to relax, birdwatch and meet new people! Fabio was super knowledgeable about birds and other wildlife in the area, the birdwatching tour was super fun!! Marcela was really helpful providing recommendations for places to go for dinner or things to do.

Cons: Honestly everything was so great!

Pura vida, not only for birds

Pros: Great hosts, great location, lots of wildlife, lodge dedicated to guests. Marce and Fabio have a great knowledge of birds .... and the birds are indeed at the frontdors of the lodge. Whole team happy to fulfill the needs and wishes of guests. A place hard to leave, but easy to return...

Amazing people and place

Pros: I recommend this place to anyone. You need a 4x4 😬

Welcoming staff with a stunning view

Pros: Wow. What can I say about my short stay at Birds and Breakfast? It wasn't long enough! I will definitely be coming back. Fabio, Marcela, and the rest of the staff were very welcoming right upon check-in. Their place has endless pictures, books, maps, and even souvenirs. I appreciated Fabio and Marcela's knowledge of the species and also recommendations of activities as I often asked them for suggestions. The breakfast was the best we had in all of Costa Rica! And, the view made us want to just stay there all day. I look forward to recommending this place to others and staying here when I am back in the area.

Cons: I would just double check the areas in which you want to explore, as this is about 45 minutes from La Fortuna. We didn't mind the commute, but it is something to note. Also, definitely arrive with daylight for check-in as it can be slightly hard to find with all of the turns and no sign indications. And, as stated in their description, you will need 4x4 as the terrain was the rockiest we experienced yet.
