tkherold, thank you for your visit. I'm glad that we were able to exceed your expectations.
The owner, an expat, has a real passion for butterflies. We expected the place to be bigger but if you like butterflies it's a must see in el Valle.
Butterfly Haven is a small pavillon with different kinds of Butterflies. The staff is very friendly and explaining everything you want to know. Though its small and therefore 5$ are not really cheap.
Guy R, we are glad that you had such and enjoyable visit. Thanks for taking the time to review.
Bryan Y, Thank you-we are so happy that you had a fantastic visit!
The haven is small, but the guides are very knowledgeable and the kids loved feeding the butterflies. Just as we finished, there was a torrential downpour. They let us wait it out in their lounge. We would go back.
Thanks for your review Michael W. But I'll bet that you did not opt for the (free) guided tour. That makes the Haven come alive...If you get back here, we would love to provide it to you...
K_rainbow1. We are so glad that you loved your visit. Many thanks.
We spent about 1 hour there, unbelievable considering it is a very small space. They don't have many butterflies to be honest but the guide is very helpful and very good with kids. They have a nice slideshow at the end. My kids (10 and 6) loved it. It was an interesting way to spend the morning.
Wonderful place to spend a morning, even if you have no interest in butterflies. Intend to make it a regular stop when we visit El Valle. I know my English visitors will enjoy as there is nothing quite like it there.
