Turrialba Vista
Bed and Breakfast with a view. Your jumping-off point for adventure
Close to town and the pacuare river
Get ready for the Pacuare River
When we started offering Pacuare river rafting trips, we realized that many guests were looking for local lodging the night before their trip launched. We’re happy to have recently completed our Turrialba Vista, private guest suites and casitas featuring a stunning view of Lake Angostura, and when the rainforest clouds cooperate, views of Turrialba Volcano.

These are private guest rooms at my house, where I live with my wife, Ana. I invite you into our home to enjoy a Bed & Breakfast experience like never before in rural Costa Rica.

Close to town, yet in the country
- This accommodation is best suited for those starting a Pacuare river experience the next day.
- We love dogs and hope you do too :). You’ll get to meet Rocky, Shaq, and the other dogs that we love dearly. While they’re not allowed at your guest house, they will likely greet you when you arrive, so please keep that in mind.
Accommodations
Our guest suites are the primary accommodates at Turrialba Vista for parties of 1 – 4.
We built both of our casitas in 2022. They have all the amenities as the guest suites including power, bathrooms, and a great view.
The main house is where I live with my family and our loveable dogs. We treat everyone like family so we encourage you to hang out with us and relax inside or on the deck.
Why the Pacuare

Hilda RamirezApril 1, 2024.Our school Riverstone International School had a fantastic time with Pacuare Outdoor Center. All guides were very knowledgeable and fun! They knew how to interact with students and made all the adventure excursions fun and exciting! The food, drivers and lodging was awesome as well! Students enjoyed the fact that they got choice for food in many areas. All activities were appropriate and fun. We especially enjoyed our homestay visit and loved getting to know all the our homestay families and to be able to celebrate with them was a highlight!
Nancy TiffanyMarch 20, 2024.We had an amazing experience during our Pacuare River trip and lodging in the rainforest with POC! Our guides, Max, Arturio and Fernando were so friendly, fun and most of all, knowledgeable about everything! The hand-prepared meals were outstanding. They completely catered to my food allergies and prepared a feast for us in the middle of the jungle, not to be believed. The private bungalow had an incredible view of the river and was pristinely decorated.

You think you know how well you will be treated. You think you know the amount of beauty you will experience. All of those thoughts will be exceeded beyond what you can imagine. Just book. Go. Live. Enjoy. The outstanding memories will last you a lifetime.

terryFebruary 27, 2024.After much planning and conversation about wanting to do an adventure together, my friend, Sara and I chose to do a Costa Rican adventure that would challenge us both in different ways. We love the outdoors and the exhilaration of doing something different and adventuresome, We found it!!! Our experience with POC was wonderful. We rappelled down waterfalls, whitewater rafted, zip lined, hiked, and did the tarzan swing and SUP. We always felt safe and encouraged (even when I was bit out of my comfort zone) as our guides explained every activity thoroughly, gave us an opportunity to practice (when possible), and were incredibly competent in each of their areas of expertise. Rafa, our main guide, was incredibly knowledgeable about anything we wanted to know about Costa Rica and our fearless leader in getting us from place to place. We trusted him for our well being as we participated in the activities. He was kind, confident, and easy to talk to as well. Our other guides: Johan (repelling) was always cool calm and collect . Max (white water rafting, zip lining, tarzan swing) had a great sense of humor an expert in all, and knew how to help people feel comfortable to engage in experiences that were new to them. Walter (SUP) was a pleasure to be with as we shared the calm of the river and his incredible knowledge of the wildlife and scenery we observed. Chene (our kayaker extraordinaire) was there to rescue us, should we have a rafting mishap, which, fortunately we did not need. and we so appreciated Julian for being behind the camera lens. This will be trip that will live forever in our hearts and our soul. Thanks to a great team for making this a most memorable trip!!!
