Hummingbirds are among my favorite birds, they look like small flying jewelry, don't you agree? Come to Costa Rica and you will see a big variety of them.

A beautiful hidden gem of Costa Rica away from the hustle and bustle- beautiful and serene

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

It is really rural and quiet but there isn’t much to do besides hiking and nature.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

San Gerardo de Dota in particular is a place for those who love the quiet, nature, walking or bird watching. Even though I am not a bird watcher, I love the place for its tranquility and beautiful nature.

5/5 - Excellent

Jose

Great place to move out of daily base business and urgencies. Safe community, with friendly people. Easy to coordinate outdoors activities: ride horses, Mountain bike, etc.
