Welcome to Villa Vanilla - Spices, Flavors and Gardens |
|
All that the good Earth has to offer. Villa Vanilla Spice Plantation is a sustainable organic spice farm in Costa Rica. We are certified organic and biodynamic and grow a variety of spices and essential oil plants, including vanilla, cocoa, and ceylon (true) cinnamon. Experience our Spice Plantation Tour! Because of tourist demand from the hotels in the Manuel Antonio National Park/Quepos area, we have initiated a “Spice Plantation Tour“ where we explain and identify the various aromatic spices, medicinal plants, and essential oil plants to visitors. The tour is a gentle walk through the plantation and is very sensory, with multiple stops for tasting and smelling along the way and includes our new "Flavors of the World" tasting - an assortment of gourmet spice treats and drinks prepared by our in-house pastry chef. As proponents of sustainable development we are also proud to demonstrate the cultural practices we apply on our farm which has been certified organic since 1992 and biodynamic since 2000. For more information on visiting the plantation, check out our Spice Plantation Tour page. What's being said about the plantation tour: "Best food tour on Costa Rica's central Pacific coast!" ”Truly a paradise where we toured a vanilla plantation unique of its kind that is visited by students and researchers from many countries.” SABORES Culinary Magazine "Loaded with goodies we purchased from the shop we departed Villa Vanilla…with a sense that we had experienced all that the good earth had to offer.” Nature Landings Travel Magazine Rainforest Spices is the marketing label for Villa Vanilla's spices and products.
