"The best option in Monteverde"
De Lucia Inn Hotel
Monteverde  Costa Rica

While in Monteverde be sure to visit our botanical gardens where you can see hundreds of tropical butterflies.

Our nature center includes an extensive collection  of butterflies and displays on their biology.  Both in the all-weather greenhouse flyway garden, you will find many of Costa Rica’ s most interesting and colorful species.

Because we hand raise all of our butterflies, it is easy to observe all the different stages of their life cycle.  Learn about butterfly ecology from our bilingual guides, or just sit quietly and enjoy the array of colors and flight patterns.
