What our visitors have said:

“Highly recommended stay”

5 stars | Stayed March 2020

We stayed at Selva Verde lodge in mid March 2020 just as the Covid 19 outbreak was taking hold and I would just like to say how brilliantly we were treated by everyone at the Lodge…The lodges are fantastic, as is the setting, and the bird watching is superb.


“Perfect stay”

5 stars | Stayed March 2020

Great location… Fabulous team here, guides are so accommodating & knowledgeable… Would wholeheartedly recommend this place.


“Great site for birding”

5 stars | Stayed March 2020

Our bungalow was very comfortable and we enjoyed the bird package as well as visit to La Selva Reserve. Lots of other sights to check out and convenient dining at lodge and close by.


“Surround yourself in the rainforest”

5 stars | Stayed March 2020

Basic but clean room. Covered walkways that open onto nature. The restaurant is lovely and food very tasty. There is also a bird feeding station by the restaurant - eat breakfast watching the birds. Look out for red eyed frogs by the pool and basilisk lizards.

The night of September 9, 2022, during a night hike, our guide Randy Alvarado managed to spot in the primary forest of Selva Verde Lodge a species that is exceptionally hard to find in Costa Rica, a velvet worm (Onicóforo in Spanish). This is one of the oldest living beings in evolutionary terms, as it is known they exist since the Cambrian Period, more than 515 million years ago.
