Amazing, my first thought was there is no way a hotel at the end of this road, but what a lovely surprise.

Heavenly
My Daughter and I did a girls getaway. The hotel was fantastic. The huge fire with chairs surrounding it was a perfect place to sit and read a book. Although it rained every day, the hotel offered boots and umbrellas to use. The setting is so serene and the employees are very friendly and helpful. They even offer turn down service…we felt like queens. I would definitely recommend this hotel for your stay in Monte Verdi.

We absolutely loved our stay. The hummingbirds were something else to watch at breakfast! The staff were very attentive and friendly and the food was amazing. A fabulous stay

8/10 Very good

I absolutely loved the dining experience here! The food was quality was excellent. I will say they do need have ventilation in their units as the condensation makes everything totally wet. Also, the drive up is unpaved and very bumpy. Get an all wheel drive rental. I do still recommend this place and I would stay here again.

Loved our stay. An amazing location in the heart of the Rainforest. Great food in the restaurant, very friendly staff and a real bonus that the original zip line tour is onsite.
Andrew, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very friendly staff and great restaurant. Beautiful view from the restaurant and bar. The food was fantastic! There is fun wildlife all around the property, all able to be viewed while having breakfast! However, We didn't like that this was a zip lining property, on the surrounding hiking trails there were many cables strangling large beautiful trees and noisy construction due to zip line maintenance. The rooms did not have a refrigerator or air-conditioning or heating or TV. A ceiling fan would have been nice. These conditions made the bedding moist and smelly. If you are planning on doing a night tour, I would recommend doing it at a different facility. A pleasant stay overall.

Wonderful stay
What a great experience! Staff was wonderful, room was Uber clean and comfortable, and lodge was so special. Walking paths around property, guided night walks to see creatures was huge plus. Food was outstanding, creative and delicious!

10/10 Exceptional

We recently visited Monteverde and had an amazing experience. The staff are very attentive to our needs and assist in a very timely manner. They are excellent with customer service. The restaurant views are just breathtaking as you can see Toucans, a variety of different Costa Rican birds, and zipliners. (One minor recommendation is the rooms need to be updated and there is a lot of space and not very good utilization...)

Best stay so far in Costa Rica
Quiet, modern room with lovely bedlinen and soft towels. Only disappointment was no coffee making facilities in the room, although there was a coffee station for those requiring coffee before the restaurant opened,
