This secluded resort perched high above the shore on its own private ridge is the pinnacle of comfort and class in the Pavones area....The 15-acre property climbs up the front of a hill...and continues over to the other side with its own rainforest filled with abundant bird life, sloths, and monkeys. There is a wide path that leads from the one main lodge...right into the heart of the tall tropical hardwoods.

One of the finest destinations in Costa Rica...The sweeping views of the gulf, Osa Peninsula and Pacific Ocean are breathtaking....The elevation and openness of the B & B allows for almost constant sea breeze.

No, no, no...don’t wake me up yet...I’m still there...just my body got on the flight coming back and sits here in the office. My heart and soul still wanders the jungles and the rainforest seeking the wild monkeys...still listens to the lyrical night sounds of frogs, plinko bugs, and cicadas in the wilderness, and morning songs of wildbirds...still watches and waits for afternoon rains, thunder and lightning...still smells the ever present humus from indigenous growth of the forest floor...still seeks the wild crocs, cayman, sloth, exotic birds, primates on paths of solitude in the wilderness...still walks along deserted beaches searching for tropical shells and gazes out to surfers riding huge waves. No...I’ve not returned nor at all desire to. My spirit remains in Costa Rica. Thanks again Heidi and Greg for your hospitality...wishing you and your family all the best in your piece of peace on earth.

What a pleasure to sit on your patio in early morning light and spot the activity, from Honeycreepers and Tanagers to Scarlet Macaws. A dozen species before breakfast in a natural setting!

We enjoyed birding the park-like hillside below the lodge...Late in the day, as the sun set over the Osa Peninsula, we found the view of Golfo Dulce a bit distracting, but even birders need to relax with a cool beverage at the close of day. Such a panorama!

Pavones is a special place of tremendous biodiversity and an unspoiled character that is valued and cultivated by the resident population. The Golfo Dulce is rich with life...sure to provide outstanding fishing experiences. In the surrounding hills one can observe several species of monkey, as well as a boundless variety of birds, reptiles, and amphibians. All of this, combined with beautiful beaches and great surfing, is sure to provide a memorable experience.

Your warmth and hospitality are as beautiful as the land you built your home on. Thank you for welcoming us and for allowing us to bring home such lovely memories. You’ll be in our thoughts until we see you again—which we certainly will do.
