Well, I just returned from the Finca and I would have to say that it was the most profound life altering experience of my life. I have traveled all over the world and never before have I seen such unbelievable natural beauty!! I spent 6 days crawling all over the Finca for 4 to 6 hours a day. words can not begin to describe how overwhelmed I was by the life and beauty of the rainforest. The rivers, waterfalls, trees, flowers, birds, insect were the most amazing thing i have ever seen. I will write much more later but if anyone has any questions about the property, or anything going on down there please feel free to send me an email or reply here and i will do my best to answer. I truly believe that this project will be the most incredible experience of your life and that if you embrace the beauty and energy of the rain forest it will be the most cleansing and replenishing place you will ever spend time. I intend to build not only one tree house but potentially two or three. Please take the time to visit and i believe it will touch your soul. Reply to this

We just saw an article on the area and are very keen to come down next November and potentially pick a tree or two we thing. I will be scouring the site as more info goes up, sounds exactly what we are looking for in our 5-10 year plan. Any info you have would be great! Reply to this
Let us know when you would like to visit...November and October are typically the rainiest months of the year here, but then again, it's a La Nina year, which has tinkered with all the normal weather patterns.
If you'd like more detailed info on land availability and specific lots, send me your email address via info@fincabellavista.net.
Thanks for your interest in FBV! Erica Reply to this

I've only read, emailed Erica several times, and now subscribing to the blog on the treehouse living they have set-up. How did you get there ( I'm from Toronto, Canada )? How did you choose your lot? How far are you from the sea? Reply to this

We read about it mid march and first week of may we were on site. We wanted to go dec 08, then aug 08, but lots were selling and we wanted in. So we own 2 riverfront lots now. We wanted waterfront so that narrowed down the choice, and there are a few left, but not many on the river. We flew thru TO, since that was when the american airlines were all stalling and cancelling for a bit there. Now tho, Mexicana Air flies direct Calgary to Mexico City and then to San Jose, thats' the way to go from now on. I would suggest as they do, to take a regional flight from San Jose to Golfito, that drive took years off our lives. I am going back in jan 09 to start preliminary plans for building our first treehouse. We are about 45-60 minutes from the ocean, but it's a great and adventurous drive. And the rivers are cool, accessible and refreshing, clean and beautiful. You ahve to see it it to believe it, tho some have bought sight unseen i heard. Once you see, you're in tho, careful!

Hi Brad, We share your appreciation of FBV. My daughter and I visited in March only because a friend told us about FBV, and we fell in love with the place so much that I bought a lot on the spot! I'm glad to hear that you're planning to build a treehouse or two, so are we. Have you started the planning process yet? If so, where would you recommend I go for some sample treehouse plans? Reply to this
It was a pleasure showing you around the finca and we are glad you love it as much as we do! It's a pretty amazing place and we look forward to seeing you down here again soon!
In all honesty, I believe this site found its way to me through some very awesome people I share space with on MySpace. I purchased property in Parrita, CR a few years back and have been preparing to move, body, mind and soul within the next few years. I often wondered if I could build something that would not cause impediment among the wildlife and their habitat, the naturally beautiful and abundant, flourishing surroundings. I believe this came to me as a gift, and would so very much like to see and know more. So this is my first step to seeking and finding. Can you please let me know how we may come for a visit, the best way to travel from San Jose and-or Parrita, possible places to lodge and any other helpful info would be greatly appreciated. I have been a member of Scott's site, welovecostarica.com for several years now, but have never known about this wonderful habitat. I will be checking as soon as I finish this note.
Please do keep in touch!
