Valle Escondido Nature Reserve Hotel & Farm offers family rooms and quadruple rooms with private bathrooms, tea and coffee makers, and garden views. Some rooms include a balcony overlooking the Cordillera de Tilarán Mountains. The family room features a kitchenette with a refrigerator, microwave, and cookware. All rooms have free Wi-Fi and parquet flooring.

Dining & Farm

The hotel's farm-to-table restaurant serves organic meals prepared with ingredients grown on-site. Dishes include wood-fired thin-crust pizza made with daily farm harvests. Guests dine with views of the Pacific Ocean and Gulf of Nicoya. The organic farm operates as a learning center for regenerative agriculture and permaculture.

Nature & Trails

The reserve spans 17 hectares with trails through primary forest, offering views of the Pacific Ocean. Five waterfalls flow through the property, merging into rivers leading to the Gulf of Nicoya. Wheelchair-accessible trails include a hammock garden and a viewing platform overlooking a waterfall. Guided night tours showcase nocturnal wildlife like nine-banded armadillos and Toltecus bats.

Wildlife & Birdwatching

The reserve is a habitat for endangered bellbirds, keel-billed toucans, and blue-crowned motmots. Early morning birdwatching tours spot species like the white-eared brown sparrow and long-tailed manakin. Other wildlife includes white-nosed coatis, capuchin monkeys, and blue morpho butterflies. A 450-year-old strangler fig tree stands in the forest.

The hotel is 90 km from La Fortuna Airport and 1.5 km from Monteverde Orchid Garden. Nearby attractions include Frog Pond Ranario (1.5 km) and Children's Eternal Rainforest (0.5 km).
