The staff was wonderful. We loved the hiking trails on the property and location. There is a beautiful hollow tree we had permission to climb which we absolutely loved.

Kristin United States of America

Perfect located for exploring the Monteverde Cloudforest. Quiet with a lot of wildlife around. Country-style, simple cabin with a lot of charm. Hot shower & good wifi. Super friendly staff - family owned. Cafés and restaurant close-by.

Julia Germany

Great price, good nearby amenities, close to the cloud forests. You can get a shuttle to the Santa Elena Cloud Forest. Beautiful location, couldn't be better.

George United States of America

Cabins are far enough from town to be away from down town noise and close enough to walk to town. The staff, Marco and Kenneth were extremely helpful and friendly. Across the street was an amazing restaurant, Stella's for breakfast, and the restaurant on the property was incredible for dinner. We stayed an extra day.

Byron United States of America

Amazing place to stay. For the price there's nothing like it.

Percy Costa Rica

The clean room. The natural surroundings. The restaurant which offers a discount to guests and stellas over the road.

Beth United Kingdom

Stunning location, very quiet but walking distance to an amazing coffee shop, restaurant and breakfast place!

Penny United Kingdom

Nice garden surrounding the rooms. Well maintained

Marcelo Israel

great location for town, restaurants and national park. staff were great and the lodges were fantastic. peaceful and comfortable and lovely restaurant connected with 10% discount for lodgers. great value for money, can’t fault it!

Luke United Kingdom

My friend and I booked this place last minute without any reviews (the place has changed names and ownership recently). When we arrived, we were greeted instantly by the warm and friendly Marco. We loved staying here! It was a great price. Quiet and surrounded by nature and hummingbirds. The stars at night are incredible. Right across from a great breakfast place (Stellas) and next to a wonderful local food market. Also a ten minute walk to the most gorgeous sunset spot! The cloud forest is walkable but a little tiresome. We booked another night with ease and Marco was available when we needed him. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this little slice of paradise if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle and in a quieter spot!
