A peaceful home for a tranquil night in the San Isidro area. A strategic starting
point for the Southern Pacific exploration. A green garden with an amazing
variety of trees, fruit, and an excellent birding spot. Talari Mountain
Lodge is that and much more. Your hosts speak five languages and enjoy cooking
for guests. It is easy to find us, It is not easy to say good bye.
The 20 acres property contains virgin forest , reforested areas, river side,
orchids, and well maintained trails, all for you to have a good time.
The grounds of the lodge are just perfect for those who love birding, with
over 200 species of birds one can enjoy a wonderful day in our property. You also have
the opportunity to visit Los Cusingos Bird Sanctuary and Las Quebradas Biological
Reserve within very short drives. For these visits you can request a guided tour at extra cost.
The lodge has eight rooms with private bathroom and heated water,
a small fridge and terrace. The relaxing swimming pool in a green setting
has the Talamanca Mountain Range as impressive background.
It is easy to find Talari Mountain Lodge. From San Jose take the Panamerican Highway
South (Highway 2) for 135 km. It will take approximately 3 hours to reach San Isidro.
Once in San Isidro keep driving on the Panamerican Highway for 1 Km and you will find
the sign "Rivas 8 Km". Turn left and after 6 km (before the community of Rivas) you
will find our sign on the right side of the road. Notice in the map below that you go
over two bridges before your detour to the left.
If you are travelling by bus you will need to go to MUSOC Bus Station in
San Jose Downtown next the Carit Maternity Hospital.
It is important to be there at least
one hour in advance to get your tickets, although it is much better to
buy them the day before (office hours are from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m.) There are buses
every hour. The ride to San Isidro takes about 3 hours and you need to keep
your tickets during the trip because they sometimes check them half way to San Isidro.
