Guest Reviews

• Severine (9/5): Beau logement au calme - La véranda est vraiment agréable Cuisine très bien équipé Lave linge et sèche linge très pratique Parking privé Linge de maison impeccable Calme, pas de bruit de circulation Pas loin du centre ville de Elena Maison sombre Manque juste un grille pain à notre goût sinon c’est parfait
• SARA (9/5): -
• Elke (9/5): -
• Nancy (8/5): Bad weather but very nice spot to stay. - Easy check-in, private secure parking,good location, CLEAN! It was very cold and windy when we were there, not their fault but made upstairs quite loud and difficult to sleep. Some kind of heater would be nice
• Ina (10/5): Wir fühlten uns wie in einem Chalet, alles passte. - Auch ohne Auto war die Lage gut, wir konnten vieles zu Fuss erreichen oder nutzten Taxis. Alles was man braucht war da und noch mehr.über den Tumbler waren wir sehr froh. Den offenen Kamin haben wir sehr genossen, es war auch ausreichend Holz da. Die Betten waren bequem und auch in der Küche konnten wir alles zubereiten, da es an nichts fehlte. Nichts. Alles war gut.
• Christine (10/5): Would recommend and hope to return again. - A lovely well equipped cabana, very clean, comfortable and nicely designed. Was private and secure. Only wish we stayed a few more days. Not a single complaint.
• Nora (10/5): The perfect comfy cabin for adventuring AND relaxing! - It was such a pleasure to call this spot home for a couple weeks! This cabin is so homey and well-appointed. The appliances seemed new and functioned without problems, and we couldn't have been more grateful for the dedicated washer/dryer. With an abundance of towels, dishes, kitchen appliances/supplies, extra blankets, and electrical outlets, it felt like we had everything we needed and more! It was perfectly in the middle of everything we needed, with about 20-25 minutes walking to downtown Santa Elena and a similar distance to our other destinations around Monteverde. We were very active during our time in Costa Rica and it was so nice to have a safe, warm, comfortable place to return to after long days of work or exploring that really felt like a home. It was the perfect cozy size for four of us, and the loft layout is darling! The back balcony and front table were perfect places to sit and enjoy the outdoors, and you can see the gulf of Nicoya from the balcony! We spent a lot of time working on computers when we were home and the internet/electrical access met our needs easily. Our hosts were so friendly, helpful, communicative, and generous, making sure we had what we needed but giving us lots of space (shoutout Mauricio and Roger!). I also loved the art on the walls from local artists. The space was so colorful and lively, but serene at the same time. I really cannot emphasize enough how much we hit the jackpot with this place, and I hope to return someday soon! (Photos show coati in front driveway, view of street from front driveway, and view of gulf from back balcony) The kitchen/dining/living area is a little cramped, but that was an inconsequential detail for us and makes sense for the size of the house. If we had done more cooking (and/or used more of the small kitchen appliances other than the coffee maker) we probably would've felt the need for more counter space, but it was perfect for us doing minimal/basic cooking and we were able to navigate the space pretty easily without too many cooks in the kitchen, so to speak.
• Bruno (9/5): Logement vraiement agréable, confortable et grand, bien situé à Monterverde. - Logement très confortable. Propreté impeccable. Sanitaires parfaits. Lave linge et sèche linge. Literie confortable. Cuisine bien équipée. Cuisinière un peu vieillotte (plaques électriques). Manque des rideaux aux fenêtres du haut pour la lumière du matin.
• Muriel (9/5): Super location - The cabin was well laid out and equipped with everything you need. It was a short drive to the town. The bed was comfortable. The soundproofing was not good but I think this is normal for Costa Rica. The room upstairs was too noisy for sleeping.
• Elizabeth (10/5): A beautiful wooden chalet - We stayed at Flaki for two nights in July 2025 and really enjoyed our time there. It is a beautiful wooden chalet which is set back against the cloud forest. It felt very secluded but also safe. The chalet was large with a bedroom downstairs and a mezzanine with two separate but connected sleeping areas upstairs for the kids to sleep in. Washing and drying facilities much appreciated. It has a lovely balcony at the back which you can sit out on and watch the birds and animals. Although we were out doing activities for most of the time we were there, we saw plenty - hummingbirds, a coati, an agouti and possibly a tayra (although it moved fast and could have been the neighbour’s cat).
• Stephen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anthea (9/5): What a magic place. - Great location and delightful cabin.
• Steven (8/5): Recommend if you need more bedding options and a good location. - Excellent location. It's a small place, but it's laid out nicely with good bedding options. Everything was very clean. The wifi worked well enough. It was cool inside and air conditioning wasn't necessary. The amenities were perfect. Communication from the owners wasn't great. I think they were traveling at the time. It was very windy when we were there, and it was loud at night with things (acorns, maybe?) landing on the metal roof.
