The Hacienda Experience
The 1.000 acres Hacienda la Esperanza is more than just a hotel or luxurious eco lodge resort. It is a unique and natural haven for the true traveller who is looking for a touch of luxury while enjoying real country life with adventure and excitement of an exotic and tropical destination. With the alluring Pacific Ocean nearby, from Tambor to Montezuma. But most importantly, it is a continuing process of nature conservation, reforestation and community development, offering passionate travelers agro and eco tourism at its best. That’s why we at Esperanza (= hope) call it The Hacienda Experience. Make it yours…
Enjoy real country life by taking advantage of one or even more of all our seven sustainable areas of activities:
- forestry by planting your own hardwood tree in our still growing reforestation area
- hospitality by living your own life in our typically Costa Rican ‘El Pueblo Esperanza’, even for a couple of days; navigate to our rates + packages
- aqua culture by catching your own delightful ‘Pesca San Pedro’ in one of our fish ponds
- cattle breeding by becoming overwhelmed by the varied livestock on the Hacienda
- agriculture by tasting long forgotten food: fresh products of our fertile fields; in fact the woody plant bamboo is a very special grass that strictly belongs to agriculture as well
- education by using our field guides to discover real wildlife in our protected primary forests and/or visiting -after a heavy hike- ‘our’ indigenous cemetery & memorial in the Esperanza Mountains
- sports by hiking, (mountain) biking, horse back riding, rafting and swimming (water-falls as well) in the rural world of your own Hacienda
