PARAISO QUETZAL LODGE
Go there and contact
Finca transformed from an exploitation activity to an ecological tourism activity, with rooms with a breathtaking view.
Jorge, an ornithologist, transformed his finca in 2005 to develop an ecotourism activity. Members of the Dota community have created a quetzal preservation plan. The money from the tours is reinvested in the maintenance of the area. On the program: trekking in the 80 hectares of reserve, bird watching, sunrise on the Cerro de la Muerte... The large rooms offer a breathtaking view, and are furnished with natural materials. In the restaurant room, you can access a platform to observe the hummingbirds.

Gut angelegte Trails mit Kolibri Beobachtungs-Station.
We joined the Quetzal Tour starting at 5:30 AM. To participate in this tour at this time, we needed to rent a car and stay overnight at the Paraiso Quetzal Lodge.
For the first hour, we patiently waited, but the Quetzal didn't appear. However, we had plenty to do, such as admiring the mini avocados tree, which is the main food of the Quetzal, playing with the guide's dog, seeing many fly catchers, and we never got bored. Afterwards, we moved to a different location and walked a few minutes along a trail. Finally, we encountered the Quetzal!! I'm in awe of the guide's knowledge and their ability to quickly spot the Quetzal. The Quetzal that emerged in the midst of the great nature was truly beautiful, and its beauty was so mesmerizing that it made us lose track of time. On the way back, we visited a person who owned precious Quetzal feathers and they showed them to us. It was truly the best tour of my life.
The lodge where we stayed was equipped with sufficient facilities for cold weather and was very comfortable. During dinner, we were able to enjoy Casado, a traditional Costa Rican dish. The seasoning of the trout was extremely delicious. The hummingbirds we could see in front of the dining hall were breathtakingly beautiful. It is definitely a five-star place with no complaints.
