La Ensenada Lodge

Hacienda La Ensenada is a National Wildlife Refuge located in the province of Puntarenas, on the Gulf of Nicoya.  It’s just 2.5 hours from San José and 1.5 hours from Liberia. It is an ideal place for naturalists, bird watchers, and nature lovers.

The ranch is a paradise where you will find the perfect point of balance between nature and serenity. The lodge offers accommodations in comfortable rooms facing the Gulf. Each room has a private bathroom, hot water, closet and a spacious terrace with a hammock. On-site guests can enjoy a swimming pool, restaurant, and hiking trails. Because of its family management, the lodge offers guests the opportunity to participate in the daily activities of the farm as well. Guests can become part of the typical life on a Costa Rican ranch. The Gulf of Nicoya, the mangroves, and the forest offer those who love birds and photography many different species of birds, mammals, reptiles and insects to discover.
