Overview

The Tenorio Rainforest Hiking Trip is a “must-do” for all eco-tourists.

Tour Description

Tenorio is located along the continental divide and our closest location to visit the tropical rainforest. Our rainforest experience will start with a guided walk through a private reserve where we will learn about its orchids, stingless bees, ornamental and medicinal plants, local culture, tree frogs, poison dart frogs and snakes, and hopefully we’ll spot some of the common sloths that inhabit the area.

From here we will go to a second location where we will first have a traditional Costa Rican casado lunch, which consists of rice & beans (alternatively mashed potatoes & veggies), salad, vegetable stew and a variety of protein choices (chicken, beef, tilapia or pork chop).

After lunch we will walk through one of area’s the most beautiful and protected patches of virgin rainforest, with chances of spotting the local wildlife like toucans, curassows, guans, agoutis, lizards, frogs, snakes, white­nosed coatis and occasionally even the rare tapir.

During the hike we will cross a series of incredible hanging bridges that will take us up (130ft!) into the canopy high above the floor of the Tenorio rainforest.  It is in these very treetops where you will find most of the incredible diversity of life that exists in the rainforest.

This trip is one of our favorites and a great introduction to the world’s richest ecosystem!  The Tenorio Rainforest Hiking trip is a full-day adventure ­­suitable for all ages.

Our January 12 to the 22 stay was our second trip to Villa la Sata. We didn’t think it could get any better but this was a very special time in this extremely special place. For all our experiences here in Guanacaste this Estate cannot be matched. The village of Flamingo provides varied opportunities for dining and entertainment. Whether at Angelina’s, Coco Loco or La Forketta the food was amazing. The in home chef Jean Luc was the BEST! The beauty of the white sand beach of Flamingo is unparalleled. The staff at Villa la Sata was extremely accommodating. There was no better way to escape the cold of Montana. We will return yet again, Michael Snow

It would be tougher to spend a week in Costa Rica in a nicer home than Villa La Sata. Not only is it centrally located to the “hopping” area of the Pacific Coast side of Costa Rica, it is positioned on the property and Bay perfectly. A view of over 180 degrees of the ocean is breathtaking. The home is beautiful, updated and unquestionably a once-in-a-lifetime vacation home. This will go down as the nicest home we have ever spent time in, on vacation.

We stayed at Villa La Sata, in Costa Rica for a few days in February. It is a very special place which is beautifully appointed with detail after detail. I can’t imagine a better location in the world to soak up the sun on its terraces, perched on a cliff overlooking a mile or so of wonderful beach. We had magnificent sunsets every night that were among the best I have ever seen. My wife was in heaven as she cannot miss a sunset.

Staying at Villa La Sata was an amazing experience! The views were immaculate and the villa was very impressive… I loved waking up to the sound and site of the beach each morning. The fact that you can see the water as the front gate opens and from every room is why I would consider this the Gem of Flamingo. I’ve never experienced anything like the sunsets here as well. As a videographer and photographer it was more than just a paradise it was Heaven.
