Talamanca Reserve


  • Inn Details

    Nature at its best! Over 4000 acres of tropical forest in the mountains, at the foot of Central America’s highest mountain, Mt. Chirripó, and the Chirripó National Park, Costa Rica. We feature comfortable, modern American-style cabins. Eat at our fine restaurant and visit the Talamanca bar, both open every day until 11:00 PM. In the evening, sit around the fireplace and practice the friendly art of conversation. We speak broken: Spanish, English, German, and French; if it ain’t broken, we don’t speak it! By the way, evenings are cool here in the mountains; bring a sweater. Your visit to the cloud forest may surprise you, for the altitude determines the temperature. The Talamanca Reserve is approximately 2,500 feet above sea level.
