Extremely disappointed with this property. Have been using Expedia for a long time and the first time i experienced a below par status hotel. Would not recommend this next step up from a hostel, and i had ugraded to the honeymoon suite when booking this property. First time ever I asked to see the room before payment was made at checkin. Several first for me on the Expedia booking site.

I wouldn’t recommend this place.
We were over charged for our room, when I contacted Hotels.com they put me on hold and said no one at the property spoke English, when we checked in the lady spoke English? The room was very small, bed was uncomfortable, the walls were paper thin. The room was located over the front office/kitchen area and had loud noises coming from it all night. We were woken by loud talking by the owners. Breakfast was ok nothing special. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place.

Our stay here was brief, but lovely. Leslie, the owner, was kind and helpful. His daughter even gifted us a bottle of wine when we arrived <3 We also had a beautiful view and saw some wildlife from our balcony. Something I would love to see them implement, given their efforts in sustainability, would be the Acopian BirdSaver curtains. There is such a diversity of birds there, but since the windows are so clean and clear, birds collide with the window and can concuss themselves. We saw a motmot collide with one of the windows. I hope it was fine afterwards.

Book it!
This was our favorite place in Costa Rica. We actually decided to stay an extra night and upgrade to the Honeymoon suite. Both of the rooms were excellent money for the value, but I recommend the honeymoon suite if possible. The owners were incredibly nice and helpful throughout the entire trip! The view is absolutely gorgeous and it’s just far enough out to enjoy nature.

Our family of four with two teenagers stayed here in June using two rooms. The accommodation is simple but clean and cozy. The balcony was refreshing and we enjoyed the rain and birds. The shower was hot and the food excellent. At the recommendation of the owner, Lesli, we visited Curi-Cancha reserve and saw monkeys, coati and other animals. It was beautiful. We also drove to Selvatura for zip lining and hanging bridges. The roads are difficult but we managed in our rented Geely 2X small SUV. We ate one night within walking distance and drive into Santa Elena (5mins) the other nights eating at Taco Taco and Bon Apetite, both great. Lesli and wife were very hospitable and we enjoyed our stay. Lesli even set up a telescope to give us views of Howler monkeys in the trees. All very memorable.

Wonderful experience in the cloud forest. We all felt like we were staying in a tree house, loved all te birds and animals we saw right on the property. Sebastiano, Leslie, and all the family could not have been nicer, helping to arrange tours and transportation, suggesting activities and restaurants. Shout out to Willy, our great driver who go us to Montverde over some pretty rough roads, and then down to Guanacaste. Definitely recommend

Amazing experience, and right in nature! This family run business sure made our trip better. Great recommendations, breakfast and even kept finding wildlife to show us. More than we saw in the cloud forest! We will definitely return one day!

We had an amazing time staying in the beautiful honeymoon suite. The entire side of the suite facing the forest is windows, including in the bathroom ! Probably the most scenic shower I’ve ever taken. A cooked homemade breakfasts is included every morning and you can pick between a Costa Rican or an American breakfast. The owners are very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely recommend staying here.

This is a fantastic find in Monteverde! It’s about 5 minutes (driving) from downtown, but a very short walk to several restaurants and a little store, just up the street. The property itself is beautiful with trees and wildlife (birds, coatis, etc). We stayed in one of the “honeymoon suites”, which was set apart from the main building a little bit, and had a wonderful porch overlooking trees. Leslie and his family were excellent hosts. Breakfast was delicious, and they were always available and knowledgeable to answer any questions we had. We would highly recommend staying here.

I can't say enough about my incredible experience in the capable hands of Leslie (the owner) at his beautiful B&B tucked right into the rainforest. The rooms are clean and comfortable, the main feature for me being the large windows. You really do feel like you're right inside the jungle. You will see a lot of nature just from your balcony. During my time there I saw coatimundis, agoutis, capuchin monkeys, toucans, and motmots. The sounds at night are incredible. Leslie has his own nature scope at the property and was always happy to give guests a closer look. Leslie's wife prepared a wonderful breakfast every morning. You have two options: 1) gallo pinto - the local specialty of eggs, rice & beans, and fried plantain, or 2) eggs and pancakes. Both meals come with fresh fruit, orange juice, and coffee. Gallo pinto was excellent fuel for the hiking days. You will likely want to be making many excursions to the parks and coffee farms, as I did. Don’t stress about planning this stuff in advance. I simply told Leslie what I was interested in, and he would hop on the phone and book a spot and transportation. You will literally have no worries about your time in Monteverde staying here. The owner and his family were extremely friendly, and that really made the experience staying here as a solo traveler. My first evening, they were celebrating a family event outside and his son offered me a beer. I felt very welcome. Do yourself a favor and stay here!

We stayed three fantastic nights here in June. The bed was very comfortable, the room was spotless, and we had plenty of hot water in the shower. The owner was born and raised in Monteverde; he gave us great advice on where to hike and where to eat. His wife made us a delicious breakfast each day. Capuchin and howler monkeys visited the property each morning, as did countless birds; the motmot and bellbird were frequent visitors. The owner, a birder himself, called us over to his spotting scope one morning to get a close-up view of a toucan in the trees. We had a magical time here and highly recommend it!

The room we stayed in had very large picture windows facing the forest and the king size bed was very comfortable. The host was most accommodating, pointing out wildlife around the property, assisting us in making tour reservations and recommending local restaurants. Only complaint was the shower had warm water, but the water pressure was very low making it a little difficult to comfortably shower.

Peaceful and friendly
We booked this property as part of a last minute change of travel plans the night before we arrived. I was a bit surprised at how far out of the main town the hotel was when our taxi brought us in, but any fears I had were soon wiped away. Lester the owner is a charming and friendly host who made us feel immediately at home. The rooms are spartan but clean and the hotel is tucked away in the forest so it is very quiet and lots of opportunity for animal sightings, including a resident grey fox that makes nightly appearances for a banana snack on the front step. Being a bit out of the town was not an issue as all the tours (we did ziplining and hanging bridges which can be arranged via the hotel for no extra charge) all include transportation, and there are several very good restaurants within a few minute walk. Breakfast was great and the perfect start to a day of adventure in Monteverdi. I can't overstate how helpful and friendly the owner is, and he speaks excellent English which was very much appreciated as I had lots of questions about the area and Costa Rica. We will definitely be back!

We are a family of four and booked this hotel on Expedia. When we arrived late afternoon, the manager said our booking has been cancelled. He said they have just 7 rooms, but somehow 8 rooms get booked sometimes and the had to bump us. We had to scramble and ultimately found a place to stay in a local hostel. Advise caution when booking this establishment.
