Wildlife in Capitán Suizo
Costa Rica is very well known for its diverse flora and fauna and for its environmental protection and nature conservation, and we try our best to be part of this commitment.
The garden of Capitán Suizo is a little tropical paradise, with more than 60 different species of trees, many of which are native, and ornamental plants.
Thanks to this wide variety of plants and to a large amount of our organic waste and the production and application of 100% organic fertilizers, our lush garden has become a safe place for all forms of life.
The flora in the hotel grounds offers wildlife a site to feed, mate, nest, rest or move freely.
In each corner of the hotel one can observe the magnificent beauty of Costa Rica’s nature.
Here are some of the animals that can be seen almost daily throughout the hotel’s garden:
With some luck, sometimes nocturnal wildlife such as porcupines, anteaters, skunks and opossum can also be seen.
If you would like to know more about the animals you can spot in our garden, please visit our wildlife page.
It is very important to us to be able to live in harmony, side by side, with many different species of wildlife and nature in general.
We are grateful to all the animals that choose our tropical garden as their home or that come visit from time to time, and we are very happy that our guests can enjoy their presence as well.
