Buenaventura Bienvenido a Buenaventura... Where the Country meets the Rainforest!

Buenaventura is an Eco-Adventure Mountain Lodge, Nature Wildlife Park and Rainforest Rejuvenation Retreat & Wellness Center located in the Rio Division Valley of Costa Rica.

Buenaventura's 180 acres of mountainous rainforest property are located along the north and south sides of Rio Division, with 40% of the property within the southern border of the Los Santos Forest Reserve, an area north of Buenaventura with over 300,000 acres of protected primary and secondary Tropical Cloud Forests and Humid Rain Forests. Many endangered animals (like Jaguars, Tapirs, Sloths, etc.) and plant species live in this reserve located on the western valleys and foothills of the Talamanca Corridor.

Buenaventura welcomes small groups & families, couples and individuals seeking a remote, private and isolated destination for eco-adventure activities, rainforest retreats, and to experience Costa Rica's local culture & rural county living.

Nourish yourself with home-grown organic meals, fresh spring water, solitude, serenity and the comforts for ultimate relaxation and rejuvenation.

Testimonials from our Guests

"During our trip to Buenaventura, Harlow showed us an amazing time in Costa Rica. From horseback riding through the rainforest, living like locals on a rural organic farm, and hiking to some of the most pristine beaches, waterfalls and streams in the world, there was never a dull moment. If you have an adventurous spirit and want to see the real Costa Rica, I highly recommend exploring it on one of Harlow's personal tours of Costa Rica."
~ Matthew (Hitch) McDermid, SF



"Our stay at Buenaventura was the highlight of our 2 1/2 weeks of Costa Rica. Harlow, Tamara and Gerardo and their family are fabulous hosts who work hard to make sure you are relaxed, feel at home and are well fed and cared for! For a family from a city this was country living at it's best. Seeing our kids milk cows, eat star fruit off trees, ride horses, play soccer with Tamara's kids, grind corn for tortillas and float down a pure mountain stream and jump in big swimming holes and waterfalls was GREAT. Almost a year later our children are still talking about it. Our 3 1/2 year old often packs up a little bag and when you ask where she is going she says Costa Rica with a huge smile on her face and says she is now chuleta girl thanks to the farm :)!"
~ Manshel Rusitzky Family, SF
