Heliconia Island  

On a river in Las Horquetas in Sarapiquí, Costa Rica — a small bed & breakfast set inside a huge heliconia garden. Minutes from Mini Zoo and Jardin Yori and a short drive to La Selva Biological Station and Braulio Carrillo National Park. A family-friendly base for birdwatching and rainforest adventures.

Five warm guestrooms and a family apartment feel like home, with private balconies or patios and refrigerators.

Cross the little bridge into the lush garden and wake up to birds, frogs and the sound of the river.

Take in river and garden views from the terrace and relax in the picnic area. Complimentary Wi‑Fi, tour/ticket assistance, laundry and car rental services are available, plus free self parking onsite.
