Parking was easy and free. Can’t beat this great location! Shops, restaurants, coffee shops, and grocery stores are all walkable. Very beautiful forest around the hotel and walking trails. We saw lots of wildlife from our room! The room is spacious and clean and the shower was very nice since it had good water pressure and a large shower head. The staff are very helpful and nice. The breakfast is very nice. I would definitely recommend this hotel and I’d would love to stay here again.

Room was clean and staff very helpful. The breakfast at the Fiscus hotel was very good . The area around the hotel is really neat - right in the forest . Felt like a cabin. Our only complaint would be the poor lighting in the room. Perhaps LED lights would brighten the room.

We had a nice stay at the Jaguarundi Lodge. There were definitely pluses and minuses to the accommodation. On the plus side, the staff was lovely and the cabin was very clean. It was definitely rustic, but was nestled in the jungle and so it was a cool immersive experience. We had coati, agouti and lots of birds at our doorstep. The breakfast buffet was very good and was served in their sister hotel, the Ficus. There was also a great happy hour there with a gorgeous view across the mountains to the ocean. The hotel was right in town so we could easily walk to restaurants. On the minus side, the cabin is adjoining another one. The walls were so thin that you could hear the neighbour rolling over in bed, snoring and chatting during the night. We had a great sleep the first night when the cabin next door was empty but after that it was noisy. The paths between the buildings are very steep. This wasn't a problem for us but it should be considered if you have mobility issues. Finally, we found a scorpion on our bag on the last morning. If you don't like creepy crawlies, you might not be happy here.

The location is gorgeous, you feel like you’re right in the middle of the rainforest! The staff at Jaguarundi are extremely helpful. Maria was wonderful at booking activities and communicating with us before we arrived and Arlet was amazing at providing helpful information and suggestions of things to do not only in Monteverde but also other areas of Costa Rica we were travelling to. Both are a great asset to the hotel. The breakfast is at the sister hotel a short 3mins walk away, and there is a good selection of food. In regards to the room, it is clean and the bathroom has a good shower. The only downside is the walls are extremely thin and we were able to hear every single sound and movement of the neighbours on both sides all throughout the night and in the early hours of the morning. This meant we slept quite badly during our stay. If there was a way to soundproof the rooms, this would be the perfect stay!

This was a lovely hotel that allowed us to submerge ourselves in the rainforest. We enjoyed watching the wildlife from our porch. The complimentary breakfast was delicious and happy hour was a hit. The staff were friendly and very helpful when needed. I would highly recommend this hotel for your next trip to Monteverde.
