         Natural Reserve

The hotel sits on a vast tract of lowland coastal forest, teeming with spectacular and rare wildlife.

Originally serving as the site of JardIn Gaia, a center for native orchids conservation and endangered wildlife rehabilitation, today the land remains set aside as a refuge for these many precious species. It is here that the privileged guest may take in the sights and sounds of Costa Rica’s lush and exotic natural gifts.

The Gaia Reserve is Costa Rica in its most pristine state. It is where native species thrive, their future secured by the commitment of the Gaia Hotel and Reserve project: to preserve this natural reserve for generations to come.
