Perfect place to stay while exploring Monteverde. Large, clean room with balcony, excellent breakfast and restaurant, friendly, helpful staff and large preserve area to explore. We enjoyed the night tour with an excellent guide
One of the single greatest places we stayed the entire trip. Gorgeous property, fantastic night walk tour, amazing restaurant, perfect views. I want to go back!!
Beautiful property with hiking trails and views. We saw so many animals and birds here! Ideal for families. Breakfasts were great.
Excellent, professional staff.
Amazing breakfast! Made my teenager jump out of bed in the mornings which is every hard to do. Loved the food. Great atmosphere for families. I just wish the permaculture tour and night tour were more affordable for guests staying there - as we are Canadians and $40 usd per person for our family is a lot.
Nice location at the end of a fairly short unpaved entry road. Comfortable and clean rooms, nice breakfast buffet. Check in was easy and on-site parking a plus.
Beautiful room and property, delicious breakfast, attentive staff. Glad to support a place that is working to provide a great visitor experience while respecting and caring for the land.
The rooms were clean and comfortable. The food was excellent and a good variety. But the highlight was the staff. They made you feel like part of their family, made recommendations of things to do, and were interested in your story. In our two week trip to Costa Rica, this will be a repeat visit.
My family of three was pleasantly surprised by the rooms, view, service and overall experience. Inqould definitely recommend and return!!
The harsest part was the drive fepn san jose!
We were blown away by this property. The room was cozy and comfortable with a sizable outdoor balcony with the most incredible views. We enjoyed walking in the nature preserve and that we didn’t even have to leave the property to have that experience of being in the cloud forest. We saw all sorts of birds, plus coatis, agoutis, and monkeys! The breakfast was delicious and we appreciated the emphasis on farm to table, which you could definitely taste the freshness in the food! Staff was always welcoming and available to answer questions.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Stunning views, perfect location, lovely staff and loads to do locally: its own little nature reserve with loads of wildlife on the 5km trails on the property
Rooms are nice
The view from the room or the lake and mountains was amazing
Very clean
Great staff
Amazing grounds, bar, and breakfast area
Highly recommend this hotel!
The property was beautiful and the hotel was clean and we enjoyed our stay. The food was delicious and fresh. Love the farm to table experience and the food growing throughout the property.
The only negative was our safe key didn’t work and wasn’t fixed as requested.
Erik went above and beyond to ensure an item we left behind was couriered to our next destination. Thank you.
Overall, would recommend and will return again.
We had a great stay here! The room was spotless, breakfast (free!) was delicious and their restaurant catered to variety of audiences. Everything around this place was beautiful! Great location! We went for birdwatching and hiking around the hotel, and the views were spectacular!
Room was clean, large with spectacular view from nice balcony. Lamps didn’t work but there was electricity. Walkways were nice, but gardens were disappointing. Best botanical gardens in CR are at EL ARCA, Santa Barbara, Heredia - world class!
The stay was great, best shower ever, great trails around the property, dissapointed on the night tour would not spend the money! The food was delicious!! Would have loved to have some table games available as well!
A lovely hotel with a superb location. We were given a room with a view that was absolutely out of this world. Far exceeding my expectations. The staff were lovely, particularly Melanny who served us at dinner. She was friendly, polite and happy to accommodate our dietary needs. Beautiful extensive grounds on a private reserve. Could have stayed here longer
Clean, large, comfortable room, with a fantastic view from our third floor balcony. Food was wonderful: fresh and flavorful. Staff were very friendly and helpful. However the best part was definitely the nature preserve - we loved walking the trails where we saw all kinds of wildlife. Had one amazing half hour where we were surrounded by capuchin monkeys and coatis, climbing, running and playing around us! Incredible.
Amazing sunset view, nature reserve property. My boys had great time playing scoccer with other kids at mini play ground. Also, food was great too, very helpful staff Miguel security was amazing and helpful. We surely would like to come bck in future and stay.
