Guest Reviews

• Allison Ruth (10/5): -
• x-dana (10/5): Immerso nella foresta ... Un paradiso - Ottima la posizione , in mezzo alla foresta ! Piscina gradevolissima. Ovviamente non dovete venire qui e aspettarvi di vedere gli ara o i tucani , perché va molto a fortuna , infatti noi non li abbiamo visti. Ma la posizione e la passeggiata in mezzo al verde sono ugualmente fantastiche ! Patricia è dolcissima e molto accogliente , ci ha dato un sacco di indicazioni utili. Con 5/10 minuti di macchina si raggiungono molti localini interessanti. Colazione abbondante. Camera molto spaziosa.

• Michaela (9/5): -
• Jakub (9/5): - Great breakfast (one of the best we had in Costa Rica). Nice rooms. Beautiful garden. There is a path to watch sunset, which was great. It’s a bit noisy in the morning due to the main road, mostly because of motorbikes.

• Aurora (10/5): -
• Ben (10/5): Wir würden wieder kommen👍🏻 - Preis-Leistung war Top. Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt. Das Personal war wirklich sehr nett und das Frühstück sehr lecker. Die Zimmer waren sauber und schön. Leider gab es keinen Kaffee im Zimmer :(
• Uta (9/5): - schöne Unterkunft, nettes Personal war eigentlich alles gut
• Christopher (10/5): It was a great first stay at Monteverde and I can’t wait to com back and stay for more than one night. - It was a pleasant stay, the location was phenomenal with the views and eat to find and walking to the dining hall along the path was very creative and adventurist for the short few minutes. Nothing to comment about.
• Dominique (7/5): Bon établissement - Les chambres très confortables, les petits déjeuner mais surtout les repas de grande qualité. Gros bémol, le bruit de la route qui est proche. Dommage... Le bruit de la route
• Patricia (8/5): - El lugar rodeado de vegetación, vimos monos, tucanes, pisote El desayuno muy bueno
• Maria (9/5): - Muy limpio y amplio, la cama muy comoda. El desayuno que incluye está bien. Ubicación perfecta para todo lo que quieras hacer
• Christina (8/5): Schöne Unterkunft in den Bergen - Eine gemütliche Unterkunft, die sehr familiär wirkt. Wir hatten einen schönen Ausblick von unserem Balkon aus und ein großes sauberes Badezimmer. Das Personal war super freundlich und hilfsbereit :) Außerdem haben wir jeden Tag Tiere vom Frühstücksraum aus gesehen! Das einzige war, dass das Frühstück sehr begrenzt war. Müsli, Brot mit Ei oder ein Pancake. Weitere Möglichkeiten wären schön gewesen. Wenn es nur Käse für das Brot wäre oder ähnliches. Die Zimmertür war bei starkem Wind sehr klapprig.
• Luis Diego (10/5): Una estadía súper placentera, en un hospedaje administrado por una familia con calidez humana! - La habitación muy limpia y confortable
• Lizet (9/5): -
• Andrea (10/5): Fantastic place, with a super view of the mountains, countless wild animals, very kind hospitality - Belcruz Family Lodge was the best place we stayed in Costa Rica. The host was very kind, helped us with everything, booking programs, making recommendations, telling us a lot about the animals living there, and suggested programs, like night walk, that was super cool - we saw so many animals! You can walk on small forest trails in the property, we met a raccoon, heard monkeys, and saw lots of birds. The food in the restaurant was super good. The restaurant has a very nice view of the forest. We saw monkeys from the restaurant window, just an arm's reach away from us. The view from our room was also very nice. The view of the mountains is impressive while sitting on the terrace. We saw hummingbirds right in front of our terrace. The host recommended us a sunset lookout point above the property, which was also breathtaking. The room was spacious, comfortable, clean, the breakfast was very delicious, we also got homemade jam. Thank you for this unforgettable experience! -
• Lori (10/5): Great basic rooms with bathrooms. Patios with great views and lots of animals! - Breakfast are always fresh and the jungle is right outside the windows with monkeys and birds visiting. Randall is the most personable host and always smiling. The rooms are basic and that is really all you need since you won't be spending much time in the room. Randall was also super helpful by booking tours for us and making recommendations for trails. Also loved the walking path from the room to the restaurant. 5 star location The pillows were flimsy but they made up for it by giving us 2 extras.
• SIMON (9/5): Agréable séjour dans ce petit hôtel familial charmant. - L accueil du patron, l emplacement et le restaurant. La disponibilité du patron pour nous organiser nos visites. Service trop rapide ne nous laissant pas le temps de boire nos apéritifs car ils ont été servi en même temps que les plats.
• Michael (9/5): Great experience for this price with a very friendly staff! I would recommend this to others! - Breakfast was great, rooms were clean and safe parking no tv yo watch Netflix and tricky walk to breakfast. no problem in dry season though!

• Michel Pare (8/5): - Le personnel, leur gentillesse et disponibilité, leur recommandations, effectue.les réservation de visite pour nous. Le bruit des passages de motos la nuit
• Sarah (10/5): - Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit. Besonders die Herzlichkeit der Gastgeber (auch der vierbeinigen) ist positiv hervorzuheben. Das Frühstück war klasse!

• Dorota (10/5): -
• Laura (10/5): Calme, verdure et repas incroyable !, - Les cabines ont une belle vue sur les montagnes et sont au calme. Le soir, on rejoint le restaurant par un petit sentier illuminé tout mignon. Le repas du soir était divin, vraiment ! De la cuisine de très grande qualité !
• Christine (9/5): Aanrader! - Super aardige mensen, heerlijk ontbijt en top restaurant, wel van te voren reserveren. Geen airco, maar dat was ook niet nodig
• DAVID (8/5): Jolie vue et très bon petit déjeuner - Les cabines au calme avec balcon et vue sur la montagne. Chambre spacieuse. Le petit déjeuner copieux et très bon. Pas de clim mais il ne fait pas chaud. Pas de sèche cheveux.
• Adriana (10/5): Descanso - La vista que tuvimos desde la habitación; la amabilidad de los anfitriones; la mermelada del desayuno Se oye mucho el sonido de motos. La decoración de la habitación es anticuada y opaca
• Sarah (8/5): - Friendly owner, nice walk, liked watching the monkeys at breakfast Lot of road noise, restaurant had good food but no ambience and very rushed, difficult to find check in on arrival
• Ruslan (10/5): -
• Alice (10/5): -
• Anja (10/5): - Ruime zeer schone kamer met goed ontbijt. Gastheer is heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam Eigenlijk niets Misschien gewone stoelen op het balkon
• Rob (8/5): -
• Thomas (8/5): Great place to stay. - Good host. Easy parking, onsite hikes. Dark room and hard bed.
• Renata (7/5): - Śniadanie było ok Zdjęcia trochę przekłamują. Obiekt jest stary i wymaga renowacji. Domek nie był za czysty. Bardzo trudno było nam tam trafić.
• Antonina (9/5): A pleasant surprise - Amazing views right at the door step, spacious rooms, very kind and welcoming hosts. Breakfast was great, too. We really enjoyed a little nature walk from the rooms to the restaurant. Tip for the travelers: check carefully the amount of rooms you actually need to book. Some of them literally have 2 separate bedrooms listed as one room. We’ve learned we were not the first ones to overbook.
• Nathalie (9/5): - Le personnel était très sympathique et le petit déjeuner était parfait.
• Mehdy (9/5): Very nice - Loved the place. The view is incredible and the room is spacious White curtains in the room let the light comes in
• Laura (8/5): Súper recomendable! - El entorno y la atención por parte del dueño. En nuestra habitación se respiraba mucha tranquilidad y estábamos rodeados de colibríes muy a menudo.
• Rob (8/5): Goede uitvalsbasis voor Monteverde - Staff, het diner
• Kwan (10/5): Like stay more days, but was booked full. - Beautiful location, nice owner and staffs . They are willing to help you with your request.
• JOSE LUIS (10/5): Perfect experience, very peaceful - Great staff, very good breakfast, good views and location being able to enjoy a nice route within the property and above Enjoy everything maybe it could be good to add a pool
• Arrieta (8/5): -
• Florin (10/5): Great place in great location. - Everything Nothing
• Chaput (10/5): - L'accueil, la super chambre, la vue, les petits déjeuners, l'emplacement.... Rien
• Grazyna (10/5): - Polożenie i otoczenie hotelu. Cisza, intymnosc, komfort, czystosc, widok. Przepyszne i swietnie serwowane sniadania. Nawet skorpion, ktory nie wiemy jak dostal sie do pokoju nie obiży oceny :) wszystko bylo ok
• Guiard (10/5): Un séjour reposant en pleine nature avec pour grande compagnie les colibris et les montagnes. - Nous avons tout aimé au Belcruz ! Les amateurs de calme aimeront l’emplacement un peu reculé, le personnel est adorable et les chambres sont spacieuses et propres. C’était incroyable. Rien.
• Humberto (9/5): -
• Ryan (10/5): A beautiful setting with amazing welcoming staff that make you feel right at home! - There’s a lot of things we loved about our stay here. The sunset viewpoint that one of the staff told us to do that was on the property up a garden path that gave us an incredible view of the sunset. We loved the location, a short drive from the local town. The room was very clean and had everything you needed including a spacious balcony area. Staff were very friendly! Had a beautiful breakfast and made us feel at home. The pathway to the restaurant was very nice and we saw a tarantula hidden in the tree which was very cool! Overall a great stay and would highly recommend Only negative that we had was no air conditioning in the room however at night it does get a lot cooler so it was perfect to get a comfortable nights sleep. Also has an electric fan to keep you cool which was great!
• Kaat (9/5): Excellent - The premises are beautiful. We saw monkeys, tucans and other wildlife from the restaurant and our room. Staff is very friendly. The room was very spacious and had a beautiful view. Bathroom is outdated but very clean and has everything you need.
• Miriam (8/5): Excelente experiencia! - Solo podemos decir cosas positivas de este alojamiento. Gloria, la propietaria, en todo momento esta pendiente para que no te falte de nada. Las habitación estaba super limpia y las camas son muy cómodas. El desayuno riquísimo con zumo natural. Recomendamos reservar los tours directamente con ellos. Nosotros hicimos el nocturno con Gloria y la ruta por los canales con Giovanni, un guía local amigo de Gloria desde la infancia. Ambos tours muy personalizados, una pasada, vimos muchísimos animales. El pueblo donde se encuentra el alojamiento es San Francisco a 15 minutos en barca de Tortuguero, un pueblecito precioso y muy tranquilo (Tortuguero esta muy masificado). En definitiva, 100% recomendable.
• Maria del Mar (9/5): Un lugar sencillo, agradable, muy limpio en dónde sentirse muy a gusto. - La amabilidad del personal. El desayuno super completo y a medida. La naturaleza que rodea el lugar. La comida del restaurant, si bien hay que pedir con anticipación, fue uno de los lugares que mejor comimos en Costa Rica.
• César Antonio (10/5): Una linda estancia en monteverde - El entorno me encantó No es que no me gustó, solo nos costó un poco ver el letrero del alojamiento. Faltaría un letrero con flecha 😁
• Jose Francisco (9/5): - El anfitrión y las habitaciones
• monica (10/5): - La stanza era molto spaziosa e pulita. I proprietari ci hanno accolto con gentilezza e ci hanno dato degli ottimi consigli. La colazione era ottima con pancake buonissimi e marmellata e granola fatte in casa. Peccato essere rimasti solo una notte!
• Nathan (8/5): -
• lucie (8/5): Belle vue, chambres confortables et bon petit déjeuner - Belle vue et parenthèse de « fraicheur » à Monteverde qui fait du bien ! Le personnel très gentil et restaurant de l’hôtel super bon ! Meilleur petit déjeuner du séjour Pas grand chose
• Matteo (8/5): -
• Sajeed (10/5): - Location. Service and amazing breakfast. Loved everything
• Isaac (10/5): One of the most peaceful and beautiful locations during our trip. - Breakfast with a view of the surrounding forest and many birds and a very delicious dinner.. The property had several trails to explore with a beautiful sunset vista. The attached patio was peaceful to drink a morning coffee or afternoon tea while watching hummingbirds and parrots fly past. It was a short drive to Santa Elena / Monteverde and the nature preserves but far enough outside to be very peaceful. Warmer colored led lighting in the room would be nice.
• Agnes (9/5): Mooii plekje met heel vriendelijk personeel en een super ontbijt - Een mooi plekje, iets buiten het centrum, 10 min met de auto. Heel v Tiendelige personeel, heerlijk ontbijt. Ze hielpen ons met het boeken van activiteiten. Helaas konden we er niet eten, zag er ook heerlijk uit. Niets
• Pierre (8/5): - Bon rapport qualité-prix. Proximité. Bon petit déjeuner.
• sylvie (8/5): Parfait calme et beau un peu loin du centre mais au calme -
• CHABRIER (9/5): - L'accueil, la gentillesse et le côté nature Le bruit de la route
• Michelle (10/5): Great place to stay in Monteverde - This was a nice, cozy little place at a great price. Perfect for seeing the sites around Monteverde.
• Lou-Anne (9/5): -
• Milagros (10/5): -
• Francisco (10/5): Estancia tranquila y placentera - Atención muy personalizada, lo recomiendo al 100%
• Lena (8/5): - Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal und sehr leckeres Frühstück. Leider ab etwa 5.00 Uhr aufgrund der Nähe zur Straße durch Motorräder recht laut.
• Jean Jacques (9/5): - La chambre spacieuse offre une belle vue sur les monts et sur la vallée, elle était fonctionnelle. Excellent petit déjeuner dans un cadre agréable. Le service était super avec beaucoup d'attentions
• Mathilde (10/5): -
• Gianna (9/5): -
• Lorenzo (8/5): Bel posto ma un po' rumoroso - Immerso nel verde con bella vista sulla montagna. Personale gentile e accogliente. Camera grande. Camera molto rumorosa troppo vicina alla strada principale che é in salita e trafficata anche da camion. Bagno, asciugamani, letto e accessori in camera possono migliorare molto.
• Henray (10/5): Merveilleux lieu où il fait bon poser sa valise - Nous avons été très bien accueillis par le propriétaire faisant l effort de s adapter à notre langue. Nous avons choisi de dîner chaque soir dans son loge. On nous a servi une cuisine digne d un grand restaurant. Beaucoup de saveurs nouvelles, de belles présentations et un personnel très attentionné. Le loge est spacieux et d'une grande propreté. Un très bel établissement à conseiller. Aucun reproche à faire.
• Phani (9/5): -
• Irene Zumbado (8/5): Hospedaje con bebé - El personal es super simpático y estar alrededor de la naturaleza es muy lindo, los senderos los tenían super limpios y esta cerca de un supermercado Nosotros viajamos con un bebé de 1 año y 4 meses y estar en más habitaciones de arriba era un poco complicado con el. El balcón por no tener baranda completa en la parte de abajo nos complicó con el bebé. Mejoraría un poco el desayuno porque solo eran huevos con tostadas y pancakes, un poco de variedad no estaría mal. Le falta lock a la puerta del baño también
• Paula Sophie (8/5): -
• Ignasi (4/5): -
• pierre (10/5): Confortable, accueil bienveillant, petit déjeuner parfait. Restaurant excellent. - L'accueil, la gentillesse, le côté familiale. La nourriture excellente, locale et familiale. Les chambres sont propres et confortables dispersées sur l'ensemble du terrain. Le sentier menant des chambres au restaurant est intéressant. La promenade au départ des chambres amène à un point de vue magnifique. Allez y sans hésiter ! Merci à toute l'équipe, nous avons passé un séjour parfait malgré la pluie. Rien.
• Michel (10/5): - Le restaurant est vraiment exceptionnel : autant mets que vins . Le personnel très serviable. L'hôtel est d'un bon standard
• Bennie (9/5): - The family were very welcoming and helpful. The location has beautiful gardens and views - we were able to see so many birds from our balcony. Breakfast was also very good.
• Regis (8/5): - Large room and great patio The road nearby is quite loud when you are not used to noises. Restaurant at the hotel was tasty but quite pricy
• Michal (10/5): - literally everything. Super nice check in, getting to my room, the view, the surroundings, the breakfast to the check out. At every step I had a feeling that I am being taken cared of. If I look at the price/ quality ration, that was more than I imagined.
• Elisabeth (9/5): Schönes Hotel mit persönlicher Betreuung - Sehr netter, hilfsbereiter Gastgeber. Geräumiges, ruhiges Zimmer mit Balkon. Leckeres Frühstück und hervorragendes Abendessen. Wir haben ganz in der Nähe des Hotels auf Empfehlung des Gastgebers eine Kaffeetour bei einem Familienbetrieb gemacht. Nach Monteverde sind wir mit dem Auto gefahren und haben den Nebelwald im dichtesten Nebel erlebt. Bei unserer Abreise hat die Sonne gescheint, so dass wir noch das bergige Hochland mit Blick auf den Pazifik bewundern konnten.
