Cielo Lodge is One of the Best Places to Stay for Birdwatching in Costa Rica
 

The Golfito area and specifically Cielo Lodge is a top destination for birdwatchers looking for a Costa Rica eco lodge. 

One of our guests spotted 80 different bird species during their short stay at our costa rica rainforest resort. They remarked on our outstanding visibility and variety during their jungle and water (gulf, mangrove and river) excursions. 

The lush rainforests surrounding Cielo Lodge are home to a diverse range of bird species, making it a haven for birdwatching in Costa Rica. Whether you and your group are Hardcore birders, Enthusiastic birders, or Casual birders our Lodge's unique location and expert guides will provide you with many unforgettable birding experiences.

With over 60 species spotted on our grounds, and even more spotted in the mangroves and during other included guest excursions, we offer exceptional birding opportunities for visitors.

Our journey to become a top destination for birdwatchers started with a commitment to restore and reforest the land. 

We planted thousands of trees to re-establish habitats and created an eco lodge that supports the idea of Costa Rica becoming the "world's great eco-tourism hub", as Harper’s Bazaar eloquently wrote when they included Cielo Lodge on their list of  20 Best Places to Travel.

We take great pride in promoting sustainable tourism and conservation, and we continue to strive towards providing a top-tier birding experience for our guests.

Unlike many luxury resorts in Costa Rica, you can take over Cielo Lodge in its entirety to host your birdwatching group. Beside the included personalized birding and wildlife walks with a certified naturalist, your group will enjoy exclusive access to our extensive system of trails and waterfalls, nestled within 380 acres of primary and secondary rainforest. Plus in between, you'll enjoy the private, infinity-edge saltwater pool and eat “Michelin-quality” meals. 

So, if you're looking for an exceptional location for birding, that happens to be at one of the best all inclusive resorts in Costa Rica, Cielo Lodge is the place to be. With our stunning location, exceptional amenities, and diverse bird species, it's truly one of the best places to stay in Costa Rica for bird enthusiasts.

*These are the birds that we have seen AT THE LODGE - ON OUR GROUNDS, AND IN OUR ECO GARDENS. The list does NOT include the birds that our guests see when they are out on the water. That’s a whole separate list.
