Monteverde Country Lodge

Monteverde

Good to Know

Monteverde Country Lodge offers a welcoming highland retreat amidst Costa Rica's misty mountains, blending rustic charm with comfortable accommodation. Guests can unwind in rooms featuring private bathrooms and garden or cloud forest views, while savoring locally sourced Costa Rican and international cuisine at the on-site restaurant. The lodge provides tranquil common spaces, including a fireplace lounge and gardens, serving as an ideal base for exploring the nearby Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve and engaging in sustainable practices.


Highland warmth at Monteverde Country Lodge

A garden pause, dinner with Costa Rican flavors and a lounge with a fireplace give Monteverde Country Lodge a welcoming highland rhythm. Set amid greenery and misty mountains, the lodge brings rustic character and comfortable accommodation together. It is a place to enjoy returning to after a day in the cloud forest, with more to look forward to than closing the room door.

Rooms have private bathrooms, comfortable beds and garden or cloud forest views. Classic and Superior options give you different details to compare, while the buildings sit naturally within their surroundings. Leave room in the itinerary for the grounds and common spaces, so the lodge's quieter appeal becomes part of the visit.

Taste the region, explore its forests

The restaurant uses fresh, locally sourced ingredients in Costa Rican and international dishes, served in a warm, inviting atmosphere. Tropical cocktails and local spirits at the bar offer another way to settle into the evening. On-site dining makes it easy to bring the day back to the lodge rather than organize another outing for a meal.

Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve is within reach for hiking and a closer look at plants, wildlife and the cloud cover that shapes this landscape. Staff can help arrange guided tours and activities and offer local recommendations. You might explore on foot one day and choose a different pace the next, with the lodge as a comfortable base for both.

A fireplace, a garden and time to pause

After exploring, find a seat in the cozy fireplace lounge or spend a quiet hour in the garden. The gift shop carries souvenirs and locally crafted items, adding another small connection with the region. These spaces give companions places to come together without needing every moment to be an excursion.

Energy-efficient lighting, recycling and the use of local and organic products whenever possible are part of the lodge's conservation approach. They complement the way the architecture blends with the setting. The experience remains warm and practical: comfortable rooms, a garden and meals made with an interest in the place around you.

A spa visit beyond the lodge

A spa visit gives you another way to enjoy an unhurried highland day. Arrange transportation from Poco a Poco and choose an eligible treatment when planning to use the Pacific Trade Winds benefit.

Milagritos B.

Very happy with the service provided. The food at the restaurant was delicious and the staff very friendly and helpful. The staff at the hotel manage to prepare breakfast just for us since we were leaving very early (5:30am)

Gina D.

Liked the two for one drinks early evening! Room very clean - which is lovely.

Alexandra M.

Nice hotel and a good room on the upper floor with a private balcony.

Kirsten H.

thin walls, but was just fine

Alix N.

This was the worst of all the hotels. Although it looks great the walls are so thin you can hear everything from the room next door. Breakfast a bit chaotic, one morning it was great but the second, when it was a lot less busy, we had to almost force them to bring us coffee.

David C.

Old and outdated.

Dolly T.

Overall we had a lovely time at this lodge, don't understand the lower reviews we saw online. The only thing was we didn't sleep as well, probably due to a bit of draft from the door and windows. But we really enjoyed our stay and really liked the service at the restaurant.

Ruth R.

The grounds of the lodge were also very nice and the restaurant food and staff were great.

Barbara H.

Our reservation was changed from this lodge to Poco A Poco resort in Santa Elena. We had a gorgeous room above the office. The view was tranquil. The room was very modern and Rob and I enjoyed our stay. We used the pool and the jacuzzi. The staff was attentive and friendly. We liked that we could walk into the town and explore, shop, and eat. All 10’s for this resort.

Rob H.

These ratings are for our upgrade to Poco A Poco resort. I visited the original resort and it did not seem nearly as nice.

Amy O.

They switched my room after my initial concerns and everything was perfect after that!

Marilyn M.

Great breakfasts.

Anukta P.

We loved this hotel. The staff were excellent, specifically at the restaurant and front desk. The ambiance was excellent with a rustic feel, and yet beautiful grounds to sit and read. We particularly loved the little Italian style garden next to the restaurant. We also really liked the quality and variety of the menu at the restaurant, including the price. We will be highly recommending this place to other friends and hopefully can stay there again

Geoff S.

The hotel was excellent. We enjoyed our stay there.

Aaron C.

This hotel was beautiful! The staff, especially in the restaurant were amazing. The only issues here were: 1. Room walls didn't stop any sound - the guy next to us snored so loud all night he woke us up...I feel sorry for his wife! 2. Shower was great, but having only a half door allowed water to go out of the shower onto the floor making the bathroom floor very wet.

Kathleen F.

Liked the hotel and location but could only get one key to the room and the door could only be locked - otherwise the door would not close.

Melissa R.

The breakfast could have been better

Robert B.

Restaurant experience was great and good value so we didn't have to eat anywhere else. Hotel staff were very good in accommodating our requests. Would definitely stay here again.

Anne T.

The only reason I didn't choose 10's everywhere was because the room was very cold and no heaters were available for the rooms. The one they did have didn't work.

Jean-Nicolas R.

A little bit far from town. Windy.

Kelli B.

Beautiful

Fabienne D.

It was a totally different world. everything was clean, no noise. We loved the contrast. the breakfast came very slowly (we had a morning tour, and no much time)

Gilda G.

I would of arranged all of the beds to face the TV. If possible have ceiling fans in the rooms.

Parris M.

Very humid in the room, but better once we got a new 'dehumidifier/fan'. One bed was in a darker area of the room and did not have a bedside table or lamp, so we didn't use it. Otherwise, beautiful facilities and grounds. Nice breakfast.

Chris K.

Showers were cold in the morning if you didn't take them early enough.
