Guest Reviews
- Patrick (9/5): In de natuur maar super comfortabel - Prachtige en heerlijke cabin met prachtig uitzicht!
Heerlijk balkon met lekkere privé jacuzzi en relaxbank waar je uren kunt genieten van de omgeving.
- Rebecca (8/5): - central location, nice host, nice cabana (photos on website do not do it justice). I think the hot tub chemicals need to be monitored/checked as I developed a skin rash (contact dermatitis) which I am fairly certain was from the hot tub.
- Koen (9/5): - Beautifully located at the edge of town. Nature all around you. There’s almost nothing in kitchen supplies
- Bas (8/5): - De hot tub beviel ons en de kinderen heel goed De eigenaar woont naast de cabin en was de hele middag (terwijl wij een relaxte middag hadden gepland) bezig met klussen met zijn slijptol. Het lijkt erop dat hij een nieuw bijgebouw aan het bouwen is. In een gebied waar je voor de rust en de natuur komt, was dat een tegenvaller.
- Mariska (9/5): Great place with view and jacuzzi - Heerlijk terras met jacuzzi. Daarnaast had het huisje zelf veel sfeer, iets wat we niet heel vaak zagen in Costa Rica. We dachten dat er meerdere huisjes lagen, maar het was echt 1 huisje. Als laatst was ik heel blij na ons verblijf, want ik was een boek vergeten waar ik veel waarde aan hechtte. Ik had contact of ze het op konden sturen naar San Jose zodat we het later konden halen, maar ze hebben het zelfs naar ons hotel in San Jose gebracht toen ze in de buurt waren. Super lief! Er werd wat verbouwd terwijl we er waren maar goed. Als je iets nodig had moest je even appen.
- Cecilia (10/5): Had a wonderful stay. Everything was great! - Property was easy to find. It was clean. Well maintain.
- olivia (10/5): Very special stay with incredible views - The view from the balcony was just amazing - even better than in the pictures. Sitting in the jacuzzi in the mornings and evenings felt very special.
The location was great - close enough to restaurants and shops but tucked away in the jungle to feel immersed in nature. Nothing!
- Jane (8/5): It’s a very nice place, enjoyed the relaxing hot tub area - The hot tub was great, daybed on porch cozy. The cabana was pretty, loved the wood. Nice parking spot, good gate, easy access. Comfy queen bed. Nice big shower,
Plenty of hot water. TV with Netflix, UTube, Wanda showed us how to log on. Peaceful views, lots of windows. Great window treatments. Hosts were very nice The short road directly to property, is very rocky, bumpy. We did get a little cold in-the mornings and evenings, did not feel like dealing with the wood stove.
Kitchen needs a baking sheet, oven mitts
The refrigerator was empty, would’ve been nice to have a few condiments, ketchup, butter
- Alice (10/5): - El lugar es un rincón muy lindo, te permite disfrutar de la naturaleza, arboles, aire fresco y la comodidad de un lugar seguro, cerca y con acceso a todo, pero a la vez perdido en la montaña.
- Katherine (10/5): Encantada!!! - Hermoso, limpio, acogedor!!!! No hay nada que no me haya gustado. Todo increíble.
- Guido (9/5): -
- Beaumont (8/5): - Great location just a 20 minute walk to the centre of Santa Elena. Comfortable cabin, quiet and secure with a lovely balcony and hot tub giving views out over the forest. Would have appreciated more pots/pans etc in the kitchen. We found the lodge difficult to find using the map provided by the b&b at check in.
- Astrid (9/5): Een heerlijk privé verblijf in de rust van de natuur - De lokatie is geweldig met uitzicht op al het groen om je heen. ‘s Morgens word je wakker met het geluid van de vogels om je heen. De jacuzzi buiten is natuurlijk het grootste pluspunt, een unieke ervaring om in het donker in alle rust in je eigen jacuzzi te zitten.
Het huisje is comfortabel en vrij compleet. De bedden sliepen fijn.
Wij vonden het als gezin leuk hier twee nachten te verblijven.
Ook heel fijn dat er een goede was service is die je kunt gebruiken (tegen betaling) Jammer dat de handdoeken niet elke dag vervangen worden en daardoor vochtig zijn de volgende dag en dat de prullenbakken niet dagelijks geleegd worden.
Een broodrooster zou een fijne aanvulling zijn in de keuken.
- Chantal (9/5): Heerlijk verblijf met mooi terras, prachtig uitzicht en fijne jacuzzi. Overal dichtbij. - Ruimte, terras met jacuzzi, ligging (overal dichtbij en vrij uitzicht) De geur was minder, waarschijnlijk door weinig afzuiging met koken
- Stephanie (8/5): - The balcony with the hot tub and bed were wonderful. We loved watching the clouds as they swept past us! The hot water ran out very quickly while taking a shower. We also had many bugs come in (especially through the front door), and swept up dozens of dead bugs each morning.
- Mandy (10/5): Top! Aanrader! - Mooie ligging vlakbij het centrum van Monteverde. Op 10 minuten afstand van 100% avontura en 10 minuten afstand van het Cloudforest.
De villa is van binnen goed schoon, de keuken heeft alles wat je nodig hebt. Het buiten gedeelte is de kers op de taart. De jacuzzi is heerlijk. Er werd door iemand geklaagd dat deze niet warmer dan 32 graden werd. Maar wij konden hem zelfs 40,5 graad krijgen.
Als je in de avond in de jacuzzi zit zie je de mensen beneden lopen van de ‘nightwalks’. Vanuit de jacuzzi zagen wij een toekan in de boom. Niets
- Kateřina (8/5): Very good -
- Sophie (10/5): Peaceful cabin in lovely setting - Such a gorgeous cabin! Very peaceful and nicely furnished. Comfy beds, lovely seating area on balcony. Good shower.
Staff very helpful and friendly. Nothing!
- Grace (9/5): Easy experience thank you - Pretty much everything was great, the hot tub was great We didn’t realize there was no AC, but it was not a big issue. The place did not feel overheated
- Michael (9/5): Great house and jacuzzi with a super view! - Everything was great but the jacuzzi made it perfect!
Enough towels and a comfy bed made our stay wonderful.
Locatiom is super quiet and very close to the center of Monteverde.
The pictures on Booking are ok, but the real think is better, Therefore I added some drone-shots 😉 The lights inside could be more “warm” and cosy instead of bright white 💡
Outside it’s great by the way.
- Donald (1/5): A very upsetting experience. - The representative of the owner insisted we pay in cash before we had a chance to see the location and was told if there were any problems to come back and they would take care of it. The cabin was located on the owners driveway with a view of their clothesline. They did not take care of. They would not give us our money back or even partially. We did not stay there. Definitely would not recommend this.
- Wei (9/5): Pleasant cabin and jacuzzi - It is a single standalone cabin. There are three beds and one more on the balcony. Location is not that convenient but it's ok if you drive. The jacuzzi is excellent. The only house next is where the cleaning lady lives. There are no houses facing the balcony, so perfect if you are concerned with privacy. The night tour company is just across the road. You can take the trails yourself too. I wish there are instructions somewhere for those appliances, such as the stove and jacuzzi. We didn't figure out how to turn off the blowing water in the jacuzzi. There is a full kitchen, but it's missing condiments (salt, oil, pepper). When we were there in late March, I almost couldn't sleep because the wind at night was so strong and the noise from the tree was so loud. Maybe other seasons are better. Also remember check your messages in booking.com. Their check-in location is 5 minutes away by driving.
- Megan (9/5): Superb -
- Inês (7/5): Very nice rustic stay. - Very rustic and surrounded by nature. Close by the city centre if you have a car.
The jacuzzi is perfect The small bed in the living room is very old and not comfortable at all should be replaced.
The location is not ideal if you don’t have a car as the cabin is deep in the woods.
- Deirdre (7/5): Nice Cozy stay for my family - Cozy little spot. The covered patio was really fun to use. I thought when booking we would be surrounded by trees and nature but it looks like the area was just opened up so it wasn't as private as I thought it would be. I wish we were more secluded or closer to town.
- Susan (9/5): Superb -
- A.r. (4/5): Overall a bit disappointing - Jacuzzi I was not feeling so comfortable in this cabin, it was smeeling not so fresh in the house. The fridge was quite noisy and beds seem to be a bit older, like the kitchen equipment.
- Laura (10/5): Amazing lodge with beautiful hot tub and lovely view - Everything! Although the real winner was the outside area…hot tub was great, it was set into the decking so easy to get in and out, great view and very comfortable day bed outside. The kitchen was fully stocked with it utensils so we were able to cook a meal to fully enjoy our evening in the accommodation. Would have been easier to have self check in that go to the hotel in town.
- Darcelle (10/5): - The house, property and landscaping was amazing. The outdoor bed by the hot tub is covered and wonderful for napping. The view is amazing. I would definitely stay there again. The neighbors are really nice and washed our clothes. The gate made us feel safe and was easy to locate.
- Silvia (10/5): Wonderful cosy place - Exceptional! The jacuzzi is amazing, the room is fully equipped and the view is beautiful. A little bit far away from the city centre but totally worth it
- Tímea (10/5): Exceptional - The hot tub with beautiful view was amazing. -
- Sarah (8/5): Very good -
- Veronica (10/5): - Nice, and love the jacuzzi!
- Lian (10/5): We loved our stay. It was very beautiful. - A beautiful cabin. The location was amazing and the outside space made our stay very enjoyable. The hot tub and sitting area are very special. Great communication. It was easy to collect the key. We only had to drive a few minutes up the road to get to our activities. We enjoyed a meal at the rainforest restaurant. We liked everything (if we were being really picky, it would have been good to have a toaster 😊).
- Aravind (10/5): - Awesome property
- Husam (10/5): Incredible views in a log cabin - View was incredible. We loved the sound of birds in the morning. The enviroment was very clam and peaceful.
- Benedikt (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice whirlpool. Great house!
- Cornelia (10/5): Super cozy, clean, quiet (except of wildlife) place - Wow wow wow - everything! and just across the nighttour entrance Check in was a little chaotic and took quite some time
- John (4/5): Disappointing - Bathroom was not clean. There were spiders and webs in many places. The toilets kept getting blocked (and no we did not throw any toilet paper in it).
- Bruce (10/5): Lovely place to stay. - The cabin is very nice and in an absolutely beautiful location. The view from the hot tub is amazing. Short cab rides to town. They only take cash payments, check in is at a hotel in town.
- Marie (8/5): Very good - The whirpool was excellent. A quiet location too. I think that here we saw most wild animals during all our trip. We were lucky enough to spot a sloth the first night, monkeys in the nearby forrest, coati and many birds. It is quite small, not secluded as seems on pictures and quality of furnishing not great
- Marcin (8/5): Great small cabin in the woods experience - Great location
Fireplace
Jacuzzi Road to Monteverde is terrible. A 4x4 car is a must. many turns and large climbs. Not recommended to go during night
Rather expensive- like 4* hotel
- Khushi (8/5): Very good -
- Rachid (10/5): Really good experience - Great place. Great location. Great experience. Just don’t use their map to find the place, use Waze or something else.
- Scott (10/5): Beautiful spot for rest and relaxation!! - Very private location. Great spot to see birds in the mornings. Close to town but far enough away for real privacy. We would definitely visit again! Great night walk location across the street as well. We enjoyed the space immensely
- Kangling (8/5): Great stay, would consider come back - Great location , beautiful view, clean room and cozy hot tub A little bit noisy night time
- David (8/5): Very good - The wifi and the fireplace.
- Dan (10/5): Exceptional - We loved staying at this cabin. It had everything we needed for our stay. The hot tub was wonderful. Only minutes away from town. The staff were very friendly and professional. We would definitely book here again in the future. Nothing
- Hubbell (10/5): Exceptional - Really cool place. Nice deck with hot tub and outside bed. Nice bedroom, kitchen, living area. Picked up keys in town at the Mar Inn and the young lady working the desk(whom we had also communicated with by WhatsApp - her name was Z...) was wonderful to work with and very helpful! We would have liked an oscillating floor fan available in the bedroom. No A/C and it was comfortable, but it would have been nice to stir up the air a bit at night.
- Maia (9/5): Superb - Family of 4.
Lovely caban outside of town but not too far (5mins driving from center).
Perfect Jacuzzi, very nice terrasse set up.
Very confortable cabin.
Kitchen ok for a couple of days.
Wooden fire all ready inside.
Very clean. The only things missing for us would have been a sieve and kitchen towels to dry the dishes
- Anjara (10/5): Wonderful and quiet little house - This place is so beautiful, we would have loved to stay longer! A little away from the hustle and bustle, but still very close to everything, the little house is located in the green, with beautiful views of a garden and the forest. It is quiet, spacious, clean and equipped with everything it needs for a great stay. The jacuzzi and the terrace are a dream, whatever the weather is. It is also safe and a parking space available. We can only recommend anyone to stay there! Not that we didn't like it, just a note: every morning we thought someone was knocking on our door. But it was birds pecking at the window above the front door 😉.
Also, scissors and a sieve would be handy in the kitchen.
- Kate (10/5): perfect - views and proximity to night walk, we saw a sloth, toucan, snake amongst others. so relaxing and clean. easy check in and check out. monteverde brewing company within walking distance for dinner and drinks. perfect end to a 2 week trip. bathroom was lovely and toiletries were great. nothing
- Elizabeth (9/5): Perfect little retreat - This was a great little cabin on someone’s property. It was a perfect little retreat for me between adventures. It was only a few minutes drive into town, but was quiet and peaceful. I especially loved the little bed out on the patio. I spent most of my time at the cabin curled up out there both in the morning and evening drinking juice and reading or just enjoying watching the bugs and animals. It is very close to one of the largest night walks in the area.
I also loved that the shower here had hot water. Some of the places I stayed on my trip the water only got a bit warm, but here the water got nice and hot. This was especially nice because this was the place with the coolest temperatures I visited and after a day of adventuring I want a hot steamy shower. The size of the cabin was perfect for a solo traveler or couple, but if you were to fill all the beds and have 4 people it might be pretty tight with everyone’s luggage.
Also, WAZE isn’t always accurate when it tells you to turn, and there are not street signs most places, so I went up a small steep private road before being directed by a kind local that the next road was the one I needed.
A couple things to keep in mind is that you have to check in and out at a hotel in town and you don’t have on site help if you have any kind of problem (I had none) and that you have to pay cash for the cabin. I don’t prefer to carry a lot of cash with me when traveling, but it was only 2 nights, so wasn’t that large of a sum.
- Shruthi (9/5): Beautiful cabana with a fantastic balcony - it’s a very beautiful cabana tucked away in the woods. it has very nice balcony and beautiful decor. Would love to stay here again! A few basics for cooking would have been nice.
- Tom (8/5): Very good -
- Agathe (9/5): Cozy stay - Super cozy The reception is too far away
- Vivian (10/5): We loved staying at Hoja Verde. It is a beautiful space in the middle of nature. Stunning! - it was like a home away from home with every detail that you can think of in the middle of nature. Just amazing! It felt like a home. Lovely!
- Xenofon (9/5): Fabulous accommodation in a stunning place - Did not have breakfast at the location. It was offered in a good price. We prepared our own breakfast Collecting the keys probably could be easier, needed to drive to a different location
- Vicky (9/5): Very happy with the little house! - We loved the location of the house. Its literally next to the place where the night tours are and the sloth we saw during the night tour were on the tree we can see from the porch. I have to say our favorite was the bed on the porch and glass sides so when you lay on the bed you can have a great view of the nature in the backyard. We had a great stay there. But If I had to nit pick the shampoo and conditioner can use an upgrade.
- Alok (9/5): Superb - Good location and beautiful balcony with a nice arrangement for relaxing
- Olga (10/5): Beautiful refuge! - I loved this cabin, it was one of the greatest stats I’ve ever had!
beautiful, comfortable and quiet!
the only recommendation to the owners is to put some more orientations of how to reach the place, I came very late and it was raining so it took me a few minutes to find it.
- Sergey_sianisyan (10/5): A very cozy house with a stunning balcony -
- Bernhard (7/5): Think whether you want to be a 15 min walk away from town with no-one available before booking this. - While logistics getting to/from the place are challenging, the peace and ambience of being in forest was wonderful, the bed on the porch for watching night sky and life is a great perk, and once we learned there are a few stores and restaurants closer to the property than all the way back to town center, we enjoyed the rest of the stay. With this difficult to reach a property, host should be proactive about getting guests there. Instead we were left to ask around to find the related property where we needed to check in, and find transportation again to get to the property because it's at the outskirts of town. The official taxi service is terrible, the first one (near the bus station) denied us transport, and we ended up walking almost 1 km up a fairly still hill to the inn that holds the keys. Then, the taxi we called stood us up after they indicated they'd come within 10 mins. To top the bad experience off, the receptionist forgot to give us the keys - we didn't know how we'd enter, so didn't think of challenging them. - Finally, the host buried the important detail that they only accept cash payment in many pages long boilerplate communication from Booking.com, which most don't pay attention to.
- Kara (10/5): Exceptional -
- Carole (8/5): Sympathique cabanon en lisière de forêt - Charmant petit cabanon, le seul souci est la toiture. Lorsqu'il pleut, cela génère beaucoup de bruit dans le cabanon.
Attention, il faut récupérer dans un hôtel situé à environ 3km.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Could not find the property. Poor communication. You should give better directions and check in information.
- Maria Muller Uhrskov (8/5): - Great place! I can only recommend this place. If I have to mention one bad thing is that it’s pretty noisy in the bathroom/bedroom when it’s windy due to treetops scratching the rooftop.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great cabin. A bit of a long walk to Sta Elena center but taxis are only 2,500 colones (max) one way
- DC (10/5): - Location and quiet... Other reviewers stated this person or that person offering suggestions for area but we did not see anyone except at check-in
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Private, clean, lot of Space, it’s like à house in the Forest
- Mac (10/5): - Friendly helpful owners/management. The cabin is well kept and located close to many of the sights. We liked that two beds in one room and one in another - allowed for privacy.
- Grace (8/5): - the place is lovely but i had a room on street side and it was so terribly noisy, had a hard time sleeping. if you can get a room up stairs towards the back you will be in heaven.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Beautiful setting. Beds were not comfortable. The owner is very nice and the location was wonderful.
