Lovely property. The room was exceptionally clean. Comfortable bed and nice comfy pillows. Great patio to sit on. Close to birding spots and can bird on the property. The owners were very friendly and helpful. If we're ever back in Monteverde would definitely stay there again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others. Really enjoyed ourselves.

Short walk to Monteverde reserve. It is really peaceful and has a beautiful patio where you can watch wildlife. Can easily catch a bus to get into town, but is more isolated and peaceful compared to the busy town. Saw monkeys and toucans on the walk to the reserve.

Very close to the cloud forest. The staff is very courteous and willing to help you everyway possible. The rooms are well built and located in a scenic area, you can watch the flora and fauna without stepping out! Highly recommend

The location is so wonderful! It’s far away enough from downtown that cars don’t bother you, yet close enough to quickly go anywhere you might want. The decoration of the rooms is pretty, and the owners were absolutely amazing! Bugs can sneak in under the door, but not horribly. And I never figured out the shower… could be a me thing. Overall such a wonderful stay!

Great location, walking distance to entrance of Monteverde Cloud Forest! The front desk person was very sweet and helpful in guiding us - from parking in the property to where to eat and how to navigate the park. Staying here was a surreal experience, like you’re in the jungle/rainforest itself. We initially booked a normal room but asked whether we would have a kitchenette and the staff was very nice to upgrade us to the one bedroom apartment. Great amenities, would definitely come back and recommend others to stay here!

Nice place and awesome host

The location was very nice, our cabin was right at the woods and we saw an armadillo from our balcony at night. The cabin is well equipped and charming. The only thing I would add is an explanation of how to use the air conditioner or hot air, I’m not sure. Also as the clima is very humid, maybe offering an option to use a dryer for clothes.

Great location...enjoyable stay

Stayed 2 nights. Family of four (2 adults and 2 kids). The staff is very courteous and willing to help with anything from suggestions on tourist stops to restaurants. The location is very close to the cloud forest. Yay! The rooms are well cleaned and comfortable. You’re surrounded by trees/forest (very scenic). As a bonus, we had monkey’s playing outside in the trees next to us! Highly recommend!!

Very beautiful property, very comfortable beds. it is a bit out of the way so you either have to drive to access food and shopping, or are you have to be willing to walk a lot! Although it was called a B&B on the website, there was no breakfast included. That was surprising and disappointing That is my only criticism. Otherwise, it was lovely.

One of our favorites

This was our second stay here. We love the secluded feel with the "forest" at our back door. Easy walk to Cloud Forest entrance. Easy to walk or take taxi into town. The walk wasn't long, but back is a steep climb that our children complained about. Helpful and kind service.
