Chachagua Rain Forest Hotel is nestled in the eastern foothills of the Tilarán mountain range- one of the most biologically diverse areas in all of Costa Rica. The privately owned and maintained rainforest of Chachagua is contiguous to the International Children's Rainforest, which in turn is neighbor to the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve.

Chachagua Rain Forest Hotel is more than just another nature hotel. Certainly the plants and animals that can be encountered along the forest trails will thrill even the most ardent nature-lover. Part of the property is still maintained as a working ranch and visitors to Chachagua will be able to see a variety of fruits and vegetables. Poultry, beefs, eggs, milk and cheese are all also produced on the ranch. Cattle and horses are an integral part of the ranch, too.

Each of the 15 comfortable and tastefully appointed cabin has private hot shower, ceiling fan, and a porch area for relaxed nature viewing. For the traveler who wishes to avoid a lot of packing and unpacking, Chachagua Rain Forest Hotel is a wonderful base of operations for seeing the many fascinating attractions of the San Carlos region, such as Arenal Volcano, Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge, the Venado Caverns, freshwater fishing and windsurfing on Lake Arenal, white water rafting on the Peñas Blancas River, and the therapeutic benefits of various area hot springs.
