Lovely stay with very comfortable beds! Spent a lot of time in the communal area that had a great view and breeze. The guys at the front desk were always so helpful and friendly. 5 min walking to a great supermarket and restautants.

The rooms are very large, with comfortable beds, luxurious robes, scented bath products and a refrigerator with complimentary drinks. The balcony was very nice with a comfy hammock swing to lounge in! The hot tub was most enjoyable too. The food was delicious and the staff couldn’t have been nicer. ...

We loved, loved, loved the fireplace. The view was nice. The location was great. It rained mostly while we were there, but we had a great time anyway. Would highly recommend.

Lots to do and see
Cloud forest is impressive especially in Santa Elena National Park. Walking around misty forest for hours is so calming. Monteverde cloud forest offers amazing views of the whole area. Santa Elena town is fine, just few restaurants and nothing else.
Monteverde is busy. Titally geared up for tourists. Don’t expect there to be clouds in the national Parks; we went there to walk in the cloud forest but there wasn’t a cloud in the sky! The last hour of the journey there is on extremely bumpy gravel.
