Located on the hills next to La Amistad Biosphere Reserve, this eco lodge features an extensive green area and private reserve for zip lining, waterfall rappelling, hiking, tree climbing and horseback riding.

We stayed at the Selva Bananito Lodge for two nights over the 2023/24 New Year period. If nature and the outdoors is your thing, coupled with a destination that is being as ecologically sound and sensitive to its surroundings as possible, then I can’t recommend a stay here highly enough. Various excursions and activities are on offer, we can highly recommend the forest walk and horse riding, Niels was an excellent guide too. I also opted for a half hour Gyro flight with Jurgen on our final morning. We flew out over the forest to the coast and back to the private airstrip with Jurgen pointing out the extent of their forest and many points of interest along the way, he really is passionate about this land and a good ambassador for what can be achieved. It really puts things into perspective when seen from the air as well. We could easily have spent longer at the Selva Bananito Lodge as there’s plenty of activities we didn’t get time to do. Even spend some more time bird watching from our cabin veranda. Finally I’d like to thank Iris for her help, who tirelessly assisted with everything around the lodge and also helped us plan our itinerary in Costa Rica generally. Many thanks to all at Selva Bananito Lodge for a memorable stay. Matt and Angela (UK)

    Superb location in the middle of nowhere. Adventurous ride to the lodge. The lodge is surrounded by lush nature. Owner Jürgen is a very driven nature and wildlife protector and by visiting this place you contribute to this cause.

    we had so much fun. it was very adventurous and for everybody who is seeking something different a must visit. the ride to the lodge was very scenic and we crossed two rivers- so a lot of fun! We did horseback riding, flying over the rainforest and Caribbean coast, Canopy tour and bird watching. we had a very good time and learned a lot! we recommend to book full-board in advance. it is worth it since the food is very good!

    - beautiful remote lodge, far away from civilization in the middle of the jungle (therefore very basic accomodations) - really nice hike around the lodge with our guide Allan (highlight of our stay!) - honorable project for maintaining the rainforest

    All in all a very special lodge in a special location with friendly and motivated staff trying to explain and show the alternative way of leading a lodge in the rainforest. Very comfortable rooms (with partially open windows-you will be in the midth of the nature and wake up by the sound of the birds and animals in the morning), good food (with limited choice) and even warm water !

    The concept of the lodge and reserve combining tourism, education, sustainability, nature conservation and regeneration on a finca that was once destinated to deforestation is very promissing. It is a great place to stay for a couple of days of more and experience the jungle and sustainable farming. Very comfortable cabins and delicous meals are provided and there are plenty of things to do and see. The whole team is very friendly and helpful. We will put this lodge on our schedule for a longer stay for our next visit to CR.

    The staff was exceptional. Jurgen is a real eco enthusiast and loved to tell us all about the objectives and achievements of the lodge. He introduced his family for a chat and they joined us for meals. When he heard that it was my birthday (75) he insisted on taking me on a flight in his auto gyro over the jungle and supplying a cake for the occasion. The bed and room were very comfortable and clean.
