The Ilan Ilan:
It is slightly larger Thatch roofed octagonal suite is (ramped for physically challenged guests).  Ilan Ilan too is perched near the edge of the bluff  next to the jungle edge.

THE SOCIAL UNIT:
A sun-dappled kitchen and living room invite you to prepare a cup of Costa Rican coffee and settle in with a good book or a good friend and let the day unfold in the spectacular way that the locals (Ticos) take for granted.

Services and Facilities

Large Swimming pool and Jacuzzi:

Our swimming pool and hot tub area is nested, surrounded by gardens, on our canyon edge. All this creates spectacular views of the Rio Grande Canyon and Central Valley with the Volcanic Mountains surrounding. The poolside bar and lounge area is a cantilevered glass covered veranda looking over the edge of the canyon. The Banana Bar offers a menu of light, tapa-like snacks for pool-side service.

The Equestrian Center:

Johanna’s passion for reviving the Horse Traditions of Costa Rica gave birth to the idea of Equestrian Tours through the Coffee Plantations, Private Nature Reserves in the area, and the nearby mountain range that offers a 360 degree vistas of the whole central valley, and Arenal, Poas, Barva, Turrialba, and Irazu Volcanoes. The town organizes several Cabalgatas (Trail Rides) as do many towns throughout the country, and guests are often included in these traditional events. A great way to “Meet the People” of Costa Rica.
 

Cliffside Restaurant

Originally we thought with our new restaurant, we would offer a full menu. Then we started looking at waste, prices, freshness, and overall appeal and flexibility to our guests. We have figured out that without a menu we can offer our guests the freshest options, but not sacrifice taste or choice.  We try to buy organic fruit and vegetables whenever available, and we’re expanding our own Hydroponic garden to provide more choices.  We try to offer heart healthy food whenever we can.   Let us know of your food preferences and we’ll try to fulfill your dietary needs.

Botanical Gardens:

There are wonderful botanical gardens in this area to visit as well like the Orchid Gardens in Palmares, or the Bromeliad Nursery in Cocaleca.  There’s also another wonderful Botanical Garden in Sarchi which is just 7km away.  All are worth a visit, and it can be done all on the same day.
