Poco a Poco Hotel and Spa

Monteverde

Good to Know

Poco a Poco Hotel and Spa in Monteverde offers a harmonious blend of cloud forest adventure and serene relaxation. Guests can unwind in the heated indoor pool or outdoor hot tub after exploring the nearby Cloud Forest Reserve. The hotel features a restaurant serving local and international cuisine with forest views, alongside the Naroa Spa and Wellness for rejuvenating treatments. Comfortable rooms and spacious suites, some with private terraces or hot tubs, provide a restful retreat amidst landscaped gardens and sustainable practices.


A warm-water return to Poco a Poco

A warm swim after a cloud forest outing is one of Poco a Poco Hotel and Spa's inviting pleasures. The heated indoor pool and outdoor hot tub make it easy to move from an active Monteverde day to an afternoon devoted to unwinding. Landscaped gardens, a restaurant and Naroa Spa and Wellness give you reasons to enjoy the hotel itself rather than fill every hour with an excursion.

From the forest to the warm water

Walk through the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, look for the region's birds or take a canopy tour for a different perspective on the treetops. Ziplining and horseback riding bring other possibilities. Coming back to Poco a Poco can be part of the anticipation: a swim in warm water, a soak outside or a spa treatment before dinner.

The comfortable rooms and spacious suites provide a restful place between those experiences. Categories have different layouts and comforts, with some offering terraces or hot tubs. Compare the accommodation if private outdoor space or a more secluded soak is part of the stay you have in mind; those features belong to particular choices.

Give the gardens and dinner their own time

Fresh, locally sourced ingredients bring local flavors and international dishes together in the restaurant. Its cozy atmosphere and cloud forest views make an evening meal part of enjoying the hotel, rather than another journey after a day out. Allow time to linger over dinner, then decide how much of tomorrow you want to spend away.

The gardens leave room for quieter moments between meals and excursions. Energy-efficient lighting, recycling and water-saving practices form part of the property's conservation approach, connecting the workings of the hotel with the landscape around it. Helpful staff can offer local recommendations and assist with requests as you shape your Monteverde plans.

A spa benefit for Pacific Trade Winds travelers

Keep the Pacific Trade Winds spa benefit’s treatment terms in mind when choosing time at Naroa Spa and Wellness. If workouts are part of your holiday, confirm gym availability before your stay. Poco a Poco's appeal is in the balance: outdoor discovery, comfortable accommodation and worthwhile time devoted to the hotel itself.

Guest review

Good food and choices for breakfast. We had dinner at the hotel one evening - food was very good.

Elizabeth M.

This hotel is a great location. It's within walking distance of the town. It has its own little nature path and gardens and nice views. The staff at the front desk was very accommodating when we were trying to reserve activities.

Samantha D.

Cute hotel. Staff was friendly, okay. The pool was nice.

Wayne F.

GREAT FOOD AND POOL/SPA. STAFF WAS GREAT.

Susana L.

Better than I expected. Close to some of the best restaurants in Monteverd. Large and confortable rooms.

Paula F.

This was a perfect location to town, yet quiet. Restaurant and hotel staff were very friendly and helpful.

Lionel T.

The staff and view were too good and the guides and all the drivers and people everywhere and no matter where we went it was too perfect.

Megan W.

Hotel was wonderful. Bar was never open, but hotel was extremely clean and nice. We loved our stay here.

Jeremy W.

Hotel was very nice. Breakfast was good and had plenty of choices. Staff was helpful and courteous. Our room was very clean and comfortable.

Hans D.

The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the overall facilities (pool, bar, restaurant) were fine. The primary downside was the four flights of stairs that had to be climbed to get to our rooms.

Anne M.

Excellent breakfast choices, with local breads, yoghurt, OJ, etc. Helpful people. Great location within walking distance of both Santa Elena and the restaurants and shops in Monte Verde. Room could have used a frig, especially since there were local cheeses around.

Debra K.

I have no idea what we paid for the hotel b/c everything was packaged up together. The hotel did exceed my expectations. This is really a nice hotel. I was very afraid with the 3 star rating and how they say everything out there is different than our US expectations, but this was a really good hotel and you should always recommend it to Americans. It was super close to town and easy to walk to restaurants each night. The hot tub was great after hiking and zip lining.

Denise P.

I would recommend that future customers be warned about the temperature difference and the wind. VERY windy. Also we were lucky that we had long pants and sweatshirts. Dinner was reasonably priced and breakfast was good (not a buffet).

John C.

The staff was very professional and the restaurant meals were excellent. The hot tub was a nice end of day perk.

Terry L.

No air conditioning so we had to leave the windows open. Received numerous bugbites in the evening while sleeping due to the open windows. Food was very good.

Amanda F.

This hotel was amazing wished we could have spent more time here, staff were faultless and breakfast was the best ever.

Shelley A.

Pros: Professional and friendly staff, great ambiance, modern, newer appearance, good WiFi in room, good location and delicious breakfast, Cons: We could hear the people in the next room talking when we wanted to go to sleep, at night the rain was very loud on metal roof, no fridge in room, jacuzzi was not hot, cows and roosters woke us up at 4:45 A.M.

Annabelle L.

Room was a little smaller than expected

Samantha F.

Was not a fan of this hotel. Very musty and damp, bathroom was not the cleanest. Room was small and cramped. Was in a great location for wandering the town.

Paul G.

Very nice hotel amenities. The room felt dated and definitely cramped for our group

Sarah W.

Think we were spoiled at Arenal

Marilou P.

Very noisy, breakfast was limited
