Our farm is conveniently located only one hour from the airports and San Jose yet in the rural, mountainous countryside. Our vacations combine horseback riding, farm life, nature exploration, cultural activities and time for play and relaxation. Children love our farm animals and everyone loves swimming in the pristine rivers and waterfalls nearby.
