The best place to stay in Monteverde… central location, comfortable and spotless room, delicious breakfast, amazing team that takes care of you beyond possible and most of all, it is a place with a soul … managed by dedicated couple, Joan and Ronald who embrace the kindness and travel spirit together with the mission to help the less privileged kids to broaden their educational and life options… it is place where you can rest after an exciting and adventurous day in the beautiful nature of the Monteverde knowing that by staying here you help the local community to be a better place for their kids. What a wonderful idea. Joan and Ronald, thank you for all your effort and dedication, you are doing an excellent job❤️ Special thanks to the kitchen for the one of a kind pancakes for our daughter🥰

I only came for one night and it was worth it! Javier welcomed me warmly and showed me the way to the glamping house. The first impression was wow🤩 The path through the forest leads right to my entrance, next to it is a stream with orange fish. Everything is tastefully decorated, everything you need is there, even extras. There was a small clothes dryer and it worked perfectly, as did the hair dryer. The air conditioning worked, there was hot water, an extra blanket for the night. The bed was very comfortable, as were the pillows and blankets. I felt comfortable sleeping there alone. The path through the forest was lit and looked romantic. And a special experience was the night view of the dancing forest, it was magical. Coffee, tea and juices were offered, and even snacks. The people who work there are very helpful and kind. In the morning I was greeted by Pizote (Coati)🥰 I left this camp very grateful and satisfied🙏🏽 I recommend it wholeheartedly it’s a unique experience💫

This place is amazing. I booked only one night on our way from Uvita to Monteverde due to a misscalculation, and already at the reception I was feeling sorry that we were staying just one night. The welcome was so hospitable and warm, the welcome drink was the cherry on top. Our room was spacious and beautiful, stylish decor, facing the jungle as I had hoped, cause we are light sleepers. They have a lovely pool area over looking the ocean, there is also a bar and a very nice restaurant, which both close at 10pm, so there will be no noise coming to the room from there. Be sure to try the chicken dish and mango monkey margarita! All the staff were kind, attentive and smiling. I hope we can return to this place, it was so relaxing. No need to leave the property at all, but there is a small town center a few kilometers to the south with a grocery store and a few restaurants, if you want to.

These are full size apartments, not hotel rooms, all facilities available, full kitchen, washer/dryer etc.... loved it. Plenty of space to hang out, work, lovely balconies. I'm not usually a 'pool area' person but it was really chilled out, nice sunbeds, drinks service, i can't fault it at all! Staff were lovely and didn't mind my pigeon Spanish. It's only a 5min walk to the main avenue with bars/restaurants etc so you are nearby without dealing with the noise etc. Plenty of parking with security 24/7. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks guys!

A stunning hotel located on the cliffs of Jaco. Our room was stunning and everything was really clean. Check in was easy and the staff were exceptional. The food at the restaurant was really good but expensive, but I guess you are paying for the view really. The infinity pool is stunning, made even more magical by the macaws that flew past twice! A wonderful hotel and would’ve loved to have stayed longer

So, 16 years ago, we had a very different experience at the park. The interactions with the wildlife was quite exciting (and so different from anything we experienced before). Now, they very tightly regulate the food situation in the park, which I 100% understand and respect. But in so doing, the wildlife really couldn't care less about interacting with the tourists. You cannot bring food in (they will go through every nook and cranny of your back packs/bags). You have to buy food and consume it in a caged area. Think about that for a sec: now the humans are in the cage consuming the food and the wildlife is outside watching us. The irony! Anyway, the abundance of wildlife was significantly diminished on our day there. We decided to spend a day at the public beach instead of going back to ManAntonio because you can rent a cabana and a lounge for cheaper than entry to the park. Plus, they have vendors there that sell you food/drinks/trinkets, etc. The beach faces the pacific and so the waves are a bit more fun. It's a nice sandy beach that wasn't that crowded last week.

Great location Gorgeous house throughout. Sergio was the best host. He made all the reservations for what we wanted to do and even rearranged a few things when it was cold and rainy. The breakfast each morning was amazing. We were able to cook our tuna in their kitchen and use it to make lunch and snacks. Sergio was attentive and made sure we had a great time. I would HIGHLY recommend staying here if you get to go to Monteverde Cloud Forest. We did hanging bridges, zip lining, sloths, butterflies, snakes and frogs. We did a great coffee tour.

I go there to do dental work at Crystal Dental, as their prices are 2-3 times cheaper than in the USA and the quality is better, they speak English and have German equipment. I do not care about touristy stuff, I did it on my first visit many years ago. You can take buses for daytrips. Tours with agencies are very expensive and geared for young athletic people. I wish there was a sightseeing tour for the whole day on a bus to take pictures without any hiking or horse-riding.

Quepos itself is a little rough, but Manuel Antonio is a gem. Be wary of all the hustlers on the beach. Would have liked to go fishing but the prices for charters were steep. Great eateries. I forgot the name but the seafood restaurant before the bridge into town was excellent.

This is basically a cruse ship harbor and not much to do in low season. A few bars and stores open. A lot of tour is not given due to no crusie ship arriving in this time of the year. Also, extreme weather resultet in that most tours from Puntarenas was cancelled. If you are planning a vaccation, you should choose another city such as Jaco or Uvita. Very easy to take a 2-3 hour bus shuttle from San Jose, terminal 7-10 for a few dollars.

Puerto Jiménez served as a rest-over before going to, and when coming from a trip to Corcovado Nat'l Park. We were able to take and ride bikes from the hotel to restaurants and to look around (the walkway to the pier was torn up so we had to go the long way around and the bikes came in super handy). The staff was friendly and could answer all our questions.

There were people from all parts of the world in one little town. It is worth exploring the surrounding areas, because the actual town of Montezuma is rather small. There are different dining and lodging options for all tastes and budgets. The town/beach is at the bottom of a very steep hill, and getting up and down could be a challenge for walkers.
