We loved the experience - Super recommended!! We got Ashly as a guide, and the truth that made our visit very enjoyable. The best he is Aryan, explained everything about the different species and gave us a hand with the theme photos. We were lucky enough to see a sloth at large inside the park. It's worth going to have some fun. It is also not a crowded park and you can walk with all the calm. Pure life!

Great! - Ashly has been a great guide, very involved with her work in all aspects of it. We have seen many animals and explained many things about them. We saw a sloth too! Very friendly taking pictures.

Good but not charming - Honestly I was disappointed with the butterfly, because they were very few butterflies and we only managed to see two species, besides that the place seemed a little neglected. It's good to know that the crocodiles they have were rescued and they can be safe there. We could see several species of birds and the trails were in good condition. The best part was the frogs and snakes part, where our guide Isaac helped us locate a sloth and then showed us and gave us information about each of the species they have, as well as helping us to take pictures of the amphibians. Apart from his kindness, he was very knowledgeable about frogs and snakes. Thank you very much Isaac!

Please attention - It can be a little expensive, but they see it being invested to take care of the animals. Well guided by Noelia, nice walk to meet.

Fantastic butterflies and frog displays - The butterfly garden and frog and snake displays were fantastic! We could never have spotted the frogs without the guide,MSO despite her limited English we really appreciated her input! The rest of the park was pretty tired looking, and no sloths or monkeys to be seen. Good place to see a few crocs and an alligator and a few turtles though. We were fascinated by several convoys of leaf-cutter ants along the nature trail.

Not recommended - We had to wait about 40 minutes at the park entrance. Because our booking and payment could not be found. We had presented the receipt of payment. Employees are friendly but helpless about the mismanagement. We advise against booking this tour in advance. The park is medium-sized and partly unkempt. Staff friendly and endeavoured.

Dilapaded Dismaying Eco Park - Excited to go as this was just down the road from the hotel. If we could give 0 stars we would. No frogs in the habitats. Extremely run down enclosures. Told there would be a guide to show us frogs and no one showed. Trails under maintenance. Incredibly disappointing. Don’t waste your time or money.

Bad - One of the biggest disappointments in Costa Rica! It could have already discouraged us that they only accept dollars, and when paying 88 dollars, they don’t have change for 100 dollars. Although this wasn’t an entirely unsolvable issue, the real problem arises when you pay 88 dollars and see only about 10 butterflies. ☹️ It felt like quite a scam to me. 🤔 The only redeeming part was the goose with goslings, but when you visit a butterfly house, that’s really not enough. 🤦🏼‍♂️ I definitely do not recommend this place. The entrance fee is 22 dollars per person, and you really see nothing.
