Located about 2 hours northeast of Bagaces, set between two volcanoes, Miravalles and Rincon de la Vieja, Finca La Anita is a family business run by two lovely people, Pablo and Ana. Not only do they grow cocoa and hearts of palm, they also produce ornamental plants and greenery for florists. They have turned the farm in to a multifaceted... More

We traveled to La Anita as part of a surprise trip for our anniversary. The biggest surprise was how excellent a visit this is. First you need to know that nobody travels this part of Costa Rica except people just like yourself looking for an experience like La Anita. Welcoming hosts (2 agronomists no less) committed to managing their perfect... More

This is a wonderful, relaxing place nestled in the most gorgeous family farm of Pablo and Ana. We were immediately made to feel like family coming to visit. The cabins were very clean, rustic and comfortable, open air, and private, surrounded by beautiful, hummingbird-attracting native plants. The meals were fresh and beautifully prepared, with vegetables and fruits from the organic... More

My fiance and I visited Finca La Anita for 5 nights (Feb.4th-8th 2013) and consider it the highlight of our trip! I had good vibes about the place from all the warm reviews on this site and I was confident that booking as many nights we could spare would be worth it, and I was SO RIGHT!!! There was still...

We only stayed two nights here and we wished we could have stayed two weeks! The cabins are beautiful and the hospitality was more than we could have asked for. All the food was good, but my favorite was the desert topped with chocolate made from the on-site cacao plants. Even in the midst of Finca Anita's natural splendor, resident... More

We stayed 2 nights in this beautiful, bucolic setting. We didn't have a rental car (as most other patrons do) but called ahead and they gave very nice detailed instructions re how to get there by bus. One of the owners was there to pick us up when the bus dropped us off as well (would've been a few km... More

We knew this was going to be a bit of a journey. The Ranch is located outside of the usual tourist spots in Costa Rica in the northwestern area but it was well worth the trip. The road was easy to navigate (with all of the warnings we were tentative)The owners have developed an idyllic world for themselves and their... More

What a wonderful experience we had visiting this ranch. Pablo and Ana are truly lovely people doing a lovely thing. If you're interested in seeing a good example of sustainable farming that comes from a lot of heart and is helping the whole community around them, come and learn from these two. The rooms are rustic -- not fancy but... More

Every now and then when traveling you find a place that is unique and unforgettable. La Anita is an outstanding example, and we wish we could have stayed longer than our three nights. I'm thankful to have found it thru Trip Advisor reviews and now I gladly add my voice and experience to the chorus saying "go!" Hosts Ana and... More
