Paraíso del Quetzal Lodge

4.6(714 reviews)

About

Found in Costa Rica, Paraíso del Quetzal Lodge is a local business. Ruta 2 Sur KM 70, San José, San Gerardo de Dota, 11703, Costa Rica places the lodge on the inland route out of San José, in the San Gerardo de Dota area. The setting is a mountain lodge rather than a beach resort, and the address alone tells a traveller this is a stop on the road south of the capital.

Guests have given Paraíso del Quetzal Lodge a 4.6 out of 5 average across 714 reviews, a record built on its position in San Gerardo de Dota. The lodge is known for its cloud-forest surroundings and for the quetzal that gives the property its name, a bird watchers travel from San José to see. San José, the capital, is the nearest of the nearby places, while Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde sit elsewhere in the country. Reaching the lodge means leaving the city and following Ruta 2 Sur into the mountains.

The website is http://quetzalsparadise.com/, where the lodge's own pages sit. Opening hours are not part of the listing, so the address and the road remain the practical reference points. Photographs are not included with the details.

Costa Rica's tropical climate shapes any visit, and the drier months generally fall between December and April, while the rest of the year brings more rain to the highlands. Food across the country leans on fresh seafood and tropical fruit, though mountain kitchens work with what the cooler altitude provides. Flights and ferries from the mainland connect the islands, and Spanish is the everyday language, so a few words help with routine exchanges. First-time visitors should expect a mountain lodge reached by road from San José, with the quetzal and the cloud forest as the main draw.
