Rainforest!!! :)
It is absolutely amazing here!!! We are staying in lodges that are on stilts above ground to keep us from the "slithery sneaky snakes" (that's how Alex refers to them). We've seen two so far, a coral snake and a hognose snake. Yesterday we learned about making chocolate from cacao beans. Not very tasty to start with but eventually we started to …

Snakes Alive
We did actually see two " live" snakes. Two pit vipers. They were small, very camoflagued, and we wouldn't have seen them without the help of our guide, Indira. Our last activity in Arenal was to visit the hanging bridges. I don't know much about the place other than that, and the fact that you ascend up a hill with a series of suspension bridges …

TravelPod Member ReviewsSelva Verde Lodge Sarapiqui
The lodge really is squeezed into the jungle with rooms here and there amongst the trees. On our stay (mid December) we were swimming in the pool with Howler monkeys in the tree's just above us. The food is plentiful - nothing too fancy at the buffet but all fresh and tasty. The guides really know their stuff and are all friendly.
Our room was fine - don't expect hotel style luxury but it was clean and spacious. The windows are covered in mesh to keep out mosquitoes and are slatted which lets in all the sounds of the jungle.
Great place to stay - will hopefully be returning at some point.
