Sloth Sanctuary

Sloth Sanctuary of Costa Rica is the world's first dedicated facility for injured, orphaned, and abandoned sloths, proudly serving as an advocate for these unique creatures since 1992. Open Tuesday through Sunday, visitors can book informative tours to learn about sloth care and conservation without direct interaction, ensuring the safety and well-being of the animals. The Buttercup Tour offers a one-hour experience to meet sloth ambassadors, while the more extensive Insider's Tour allows guests to go behind the scenes, discovering the vital role of wildlife rescue centers.

Aside from educational tours, Sloth Sanctuary features the charming Buttercup Inn for visitors wishing to extend their stay while exploring the surrounding area. Guests can enjoy various workshops and materials catered towards enhancing awareness about sloth biology and conservation efforts. Committed to research and rescue, the Sanctuary stands as a beacon for wildlife biodiversity and conservation education in Costa Rica, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation for sloths while supporting their rehabilitation and release back into the wild.
