Discovery Pass (animal sanctuary)
Diamante is home to a large variety of Costa Rican animals that are in need. Some of the animals in our care were born in other wildlife management programs for scientific and educational purposes; others were rescued and placed under our management by Costa Rican authorities. These animals are not fit for life in the natural environment and are cared for by a large team of qualified and dedicated professionals.
Diamante’s Animal Sanctuary is known for its world-class habitat designs, addressing the needs of each species. The unique design of the habitats allows guests to learn about key aspects of the biology, ecology and natural history of these animals.
Diamante’s bilingual team is known for excellent customer service and focus on education and raising awareness among visitors and locals about the importance of respect and the protection of wildlife. We work directly with a body of professionals in biology and veterinary medicine and with technical and legal supervision by officials of the SINAC, the government entity in charge of the country’s wildlife.

Diamante Cultural Experience (double package)
Take a step back in time at our traditional Costa Rican farmhouse, commonly referred to as a “casita,” at our Botanical Garden. This historic farmhouse replicates the true design, style and materials used by the average Costa Rican farmer for over a hundred years. This traditional house offers a history tour and cultural insight into the lives of rural Costa Ricans.
You will have the opportunity to learn how these rural farmers produced coffee, chocolate and sugar extracted from the cacao tree, coffee plants and sugarcane. Guests will enjoy time with our staff as they show you dozens of flora and fauna and share with you various experiences that can include:
Cacao: Guests will have the opportunity to see cacao plants as well as learn about the origin and history of cacao. Guests will be educated on the process of drying and grinding the seeds and have the opportunity to make chocolate.
Coffee: It’s no secret that Costa Rica is famous for its coffee. Coffee has played a significant social, economic and even political role for the country. Diamante’s organic coffee plants are vibrant, healthy and uniquely found in Guanacaste.
Sugarcane: Along the walking trails in the Botanical Gardens, you’ll see our organic sugarcane crop. Our staff will tell you all about the special traditions behind sugarcane agriculture in Costa Rica. Guests will use the sugarcane press to make their very own sweet water, known as agua dulce.
