Burbi Lake Lodge Monteverde

Everything! The staff is extremely nice and helpful. The premise is fabulous with nice dining room when a very good breakfast is served in the morning, and you can have hot beverages and banana bread all day long. The room is cozy and comfortable. One thing to bear in mind: 4x4 is a must to get to the hotel, and actually for all Monteverde area.

The staff were beyond attentive, kind, and hospitable. The breakfasts were hearty, delicious, and served with love. I especially appreciated the clear communication, the lake and its amenities, and the overall calm that surrounded the property and our stay there.

We stayed in the main building above the kitchen / dining area - unfortunately, the walls are not very soundproof, making it so you do hear most of the noise from any surrounding room, including your next-door neighbor. This is a big con for folks who are light sleepers, as we could even hear the early morning music from the dining area in our room, making for early wake-up calls, whether you plan for them or not. While I understand the desire to support local businesses, for safety and comfort, it would be great to have additional options for lunch and dinner on property or very nearby.

We absolutely loved our stay at Burbi Lake Lodge in Monteverde — it was one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica! From the moment we booked, Ana Christina was absolutely exceptional. She kept us updated before our arrival, messaged us along the route to make sure we were on the right track, and welcomed us with such warmth. She speaks English fluently — like it's her native language — and is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. She gave us great recommendations for places to visit and even helped us book tours to El Tigre Waterfalls and Don Juan Coffee Tour, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The lodge itself is peaceful and surrounded by stunning nature, with beautiful lake views and a cozy, rustic atmosphere. Our room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable — perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Breakfast each morning was exceptional! It felt like a buffet, but with fresh local food and personalized touches — the omelets were made to order and absolutely delicious. The staff were all incredibly kind and attentive. The dining area is cozy and family-friendly, with plenty of board games and activities to keep the kids entertained while the adults enjoyed their coffee and the views. If you're visiting Monteverde and want a quiet retreat with amazing hospitality, beautiful views, and a true local experience, Burbi Lake Lodge is the place to stay. We would return in a heartbeat!

Everything was perfect and the customer service is amazing

Everything, very nice and clean room, great view. The host Ana is a great person, explaining everything and helping in every way.

Its a nice place but the road to the facility is very bad

Very well looked after establishment with delighted full staff and full access to small lake with own pedalos

No dinner facilities and nearest restaurant a few miles drive

Right at the cloud forest, very good hiking and lake view

Driving there on bumpy road
