Rancho de Lelo Ecolodge

While a bit difficult to get to, it was well worth the drive to get to see a family run farm with lush fruit and coffee trees which were used to make the provided breakfast. I wish we would have stayed longer.

Great hosts, Great facilities and beautyfull location. Very Nice dinner and breakfast on site

Dinner very expensive and room not impressive clean.

This is a beautiful spot to just 'be', surrounded by luscious jungle and a wonderful cacophony of bird sounds in the morning. The family are very friendly and helpful, and there are lots of sweet dogs. The 4-5 person lodge was comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and you have the option to stay for a lovely dinner too ($20pp). It's a 10-15min drive to the car park for the Monteverde Cloud Forest.

We came in rainy season so the road down to the ranch wasn't comfortable driving, as with most of the roads in that area, a 4x4 would be a sensible choice. The pool was also very small and a bit too cloudy to swim in after the rains.

+Overall, a beautiful place to stay. +Incredibly kind and friendly family. +Comfortable room. +Great meals!

-A 20 minute drive to Santa Elena/Monteverde

The staff was super friendly, helpfull and enthousiast. The food was great for a reasonable price.

- English is spoken well by host which was great since our Spanish leaves much to be desired - Dinner was fresh, well priced, and tasty. The tilapia was fresh from their pond - Quiet, this is slightly outside of Monteverde town center and made for a fun journey back and felt like such a hidden gem - They have very sweet and well behaved dogs which gave us our puppy fix while travelling - Breakfast is included served with plenty of fresh fruit - Accommodations were spacious and clean - We can't say enough about how kind the family was, we felt so comfortable and made to feel right at home

Nice folks, comfortable, great breakfast

not very near town of Monteverde. Access to small pool was difficult

Lovely staff. Nice and quiet location to hear the birds and experience the landscape. The small soccer field was great for the kids to play on. The breakfast was nice that was included. The dinner we had one night was also delicious. The pool is small and gets cleaned out and filled up everyday, it was nice and refreshing.

It was a hard drive on a dirt road for about 10km. We didn't have a 4WD so it was a difficult drive on a bumpy, hilly, very windy journey. It is also about a 20 minute drive from Santa Elena up a very difficult dirt road. We arrived at night so it was a stressful journey on the roads up to the Cloud Forest.
