About me       

The bed &  breakfast El Colibri47 was set up in 2001. Nowadays the bed & breakfast is a one man business, however I prefer the private tours. This does mean that if I´m on the road with my guests the bed & breakfast will be attended only in Spanish, so my main activity is being on the road with my guests or being a private driver. The accommodation was designed by me at the end of 1998 and little by little I realized this dream: the house, the cabins and the tropical garden with many fruittrees. My goal was to create a little paradise for me and for my guests and of course I'm still proud of the result: a very nice place to live and to stay. Besides I still try to find new places to visit, to improve the cabins, my service and quality. I offer middle class cabins for almost budget prices, at many other places you have to pay double my price!

I chose the western part of the central valley of Costa Rica for the bed & breakfast, because it has one of the best climates in Costa Rica and in the world: warm and dry, but not too hot! Daily the temperatures are between 17 degrees at night and max 32 degrees during daytime.

The bed & breakfast is situated outside the village of Turrúcares, more or less in the middle of the mountains, because I like nature and peace! Still it's easy to go to Alajuela, San José or your next destination. In the morning you will be woke up by the many birds in my garden and in the afternoon you can watch some birds taking a bath in the pool.
 My goal is to offer a vacation like you are with a friend so I invite you after your arrival to drink something with me.
I´m a hobby photographer, so all the pictures (except the one on this page) are made by me

I am not part of any group of hotels in Costa Rica, because I like to be free in suggesting places or accommodation to visit in Costa Rica. I am delighted to help you with tours or planning your vacation all over Costa Rica, I make tailor made vacations at your wish. Visit my Tours page to get more ideas, combine my 4-days tour with 3 days at the beach and you have a exceptional week in Costa Rica. I try to collaborate with the local people of Costa Rica, for this reason I'm in touch with various small, most of the time local companies, in other words I have my own network.  I can attend you in English, Spanish, German and Dutch.
