About this house rental
Sobre la casa:
Esta casa es muy diferente a cualquier otra que vayas a encontrar! Primero que todo es una de las casas más grandes y espaciosas de la zona. Tiene amplios jardines, y dos zonas sociales grandes e ideales para compartir entre familia o amigos. La casa se compone de una unidad principal, donde se encuentra la cocina, una sala para estar con chimenea, un comedor, una cama matrimonial y un baño privado. Adicionalmente hay 3 cuartos privados con su propio baño también, que están dentro de la misma propiedad pero con entradas totalmente independientes de esta unidad principal. Uno de esos 3 cuartos es un mini apartamento con su propio balcón y terraza, pero todo dentro del mismo terreno, de hecho no rentamos las unidades por separado.
Cada cuarto independiente cuenta con una cama doble y una cama nido donde caben dos personas también, y la casa principal además de tener una cama doble, tiene varias camas nido y sofás donde pueden dormir cómodamente algunas personas también.
Una de las características más curiosas de la casa es que cuenta con un anfiteatro, que es de uso totalmente gratuito para los huéspedes. En este anfiteatro muchas veces se han hecho pequeños eventos de música, retiros de yoga, meditaciones, entre otros.
Hay varios parqueos disponibles dentro de la propiedad y quedan en un espacio seguro.

We stayed in June for 4 nights, it was a large family gathering. The house and garden are a conglomerate of multiple rooms on the side of a hill that are not connected to each other but you can access from outside. Each room has its own balcony view and charm. The garden had lots of flora and intricate pathways, zig zagging to the rooms. When it rains it can be wet and slippery; it was the rainy season.
The main living room and kitchen is well equipped with pots, pans, kettle, coffee maker, microwave, large toaster. We spent most of our time here and enjoyed playing card games on the large table.
Plenty of sleeping options, lots of warm blankets, large safe to keep documents and laptops (ipads).
The best part of the house was early morning and evening bird watching from kitchen balcony; lots of humming birds, emerald toucanets, motmots, trogans, finches...
in addition to birds there were some larger animals that visited as well; squirrels, peahens, coatis, armadillos, agoutis.. In the night you can hear them jumping on the roofs.

The caretakers Maria and Jorge were terrific. Wonderful pool. Lots of places for small groups to gather. Saw monkeys in the trees at the house on our first night here!

You literally feel like you’re staying in the forest - the property is beautiful and expansive, the rooms are spread out a bit and there’s quite a few stairs involved. I had my old parents (75 yrs+) who could walk up and down the stairs - we kept that to once a day though so they didn’t have to make multiple trips up and down. Our teenage boys took the rooms that were detached from the main unit while our parents and us stayed in adjacent rooms which are part of the main unit. Taking the luggage up & down for Checkin and checkout was certainly a bit of a haul - so, you need to be ready for that if you’re carrying a few check in bags. Our teenage boys got some workout with me:-)
The location is very nice - we didn’t get to see the moneys as they never showed up. Stella’s bakery next door is great for breakfast & brunches.
The host even arranged tour guide for night walk etc and provided tips for booking zipline etc. Selvatura park was a great family experience for Zipline as well as sloth habitat, butterfly garden, etc.
Overall, a memorable cloud forest expedition staying at this property.

The house is very large so everyone could have there own room - all ensuite. Very well equipped kitchen. We really liked the location on Monteverde which allowed us to walk from the house to restaurant, shops and nature walks. We saw an Armadillo by the gate on the first evening. Highly recommended for big groups. Wish we could have stayed longer - 2 nights was not enough. Also the weather was much warmer than we expected.
4.8
We enjoyed this home and the Monteverde area. The home was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. We saw lots of wildlife on the property including birds, agouti, monkeys!!!

Very spacious, unusual eclectic property in heart of Monteverde. Kenny made sure we had all we needed. Our family had plenty of space for privacy and the main gathering room was perfect for dinner and being together as a group. Moderate walk to town with hills but easy walk to Stellas and restaurants/shops near by. Stellas is fantastic food with wonderful presentation. Monkeys are very entertaining. Think bohemian vs. Hyatt. We really enjoyed our time!
4.8
Fantastic property. Very comfortable - every room has its own bathroom, tasteful, clean. Tons of space. Very well appointed with everything one could need. Best place we stayed in during our trip to Costa Rica. Loved the wildlife and proximity to all Monteverde activities. Had a wonderful visit from a monkey family who wanted to snack on our food.

Our family of seven (four adults and three kids) stayed at this beautiful and unique home for two nights. There are many places to sleep, including several beds with private bathrooms and lots of uniquely designed sofas that convert into extra beds, depending on how you want to arrange yourselves. The house is surrounded by amazing wildlife. We saw beautiful birds each morning, and were visited by a small and entertaining troop of white faced capuchin monkeys one morning. The location is outside the hustle and bustle of Monteverde, but just a few minutes walk from Stella's (a favorite for healthy and delicious breakfasts and lunches) and a few other stores and restaurants. Sergio was very responsive to any questions that came up, both before and during our stay. Thanks for a great stay!

House was unique and beautiful. Very private with fantastic wildlife spotting on the property.

The main apartment is large and quite nice. The other apartments are in varying levels of updated Ness. And they were all clean. Beds were comfortable. And we had a large group of six adults and four children so it fit the bill in.

This unique property was a great place to experience Monteverde. The location was great and we loved watching the birds and the monkeys! The bedrooms were all private with their own bathrooms. Would recommend for couples and families with older children!

This is the most beautiful and magical place I have ever stayed. The house is lovely and our group of 11 had plenty of space the beds were comfy and monkeys came to visit in the afternoons most days for a banana! On the property we saw the aguite (a large Guinea pig that is local here) and a local raccoon like animal, tons of birds, stick bug and leaf bugs. The magic of this amazing place came to us. Jairo and Jeanne cooked for us and made the most amazing food and accommodated our group (half our vegetarian) with amazing food and introduced us to local fruits and vegetables that we would never have experienced at a local restaurant. Everything was beyond perfect. I will miss this place so much!!!!

Very quiet spot, even though it is up just a short dirt road from the main road through the area. Some great space for hanging out on this property. We had 9 people, and we didn't even utilize all of the space, generally hanging out in the main kitchen area. Daily visits from white-faced monkeys were a good source of entertainment. The local "town" is rather small, but the larger Santa Elana is less than 10 minutes, with access to groceries, restaurants/sodas, and other shops. This is a great location as a base camp for excursions around Monteverde, including the biological preserve and other activities like zip-lining and hanging bridges. The listing shows it is for up to 12 people. There are a few more private bedrooms, but there are several small beds that are less private. Fine if people are ok with just sleeping anyplace, but a bit limited on individual private spaces. We were able to spread out, but 2 kids were sleeping in the "semi-private" bedroom that is basically a half wall separated from the kitchen. We all still had a great time, and the rest of the space is quite a fun layout. I would certainly recommend it!
4.8
Very unique home with plenty of space for larger groups...but also a good choice for less people. Beautiful, well maintained property that put you right in the middle of the cloud forest. Would definitely recommend and the clincher was the monkeys on the porch in the afternoon...just an awesome experience to hear them running around on the roof of the house, entertaining us through the windows, and interacting with everyone in the family...an experience that everyone in the family will never forget!
4.8
The house is situated perfectly to excess all that monteverde has to offer. We were able to walk to the preserve and to the nearest restaurants. The monkey's at the house were highly entertaining and the birding at the house was fantastic.
4.8
This is a fun property that even includes your own amphitheater! As a family of 6, everyone had room to both spread out and to hang out together. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans, so it was easy to cook our meals. ARRIVAL TIP - Do not trust GPS coordinates on Google Map as a way to arrive, that is not trustworthy in this part of the world. Instead orient yourself to Stellas restaurant. If you find yourself leaving Santa Elena and heading down to San Luis, you are going the wrong way.
4.8
Beautiful location and property. Since we were only 2 people most rooms were locked except the main house. Lots of wildlife. Sergio and team were wonderful. Only complaint would be that the team arrived early on our last day to prep for the next guests. Check out eas 10a and they were there before 8a. Would have been nice to have a few hours of quiet, especially since it was our honeymoon. Other than that everything was great.
4.8
This well-loved property was clearly created to be an event venue. It has lush tropical growth with monkeys and birds, including one insomniac rooster, where the rooms were very clean. Be warned that there are numerous uneven steps to carry luggage. We were there for only two nights, so we didn't get to use the "custom jacuzzi" or other parts of the property. Jairo met us, showed us the features of the property. One downside is that there is no A/C and no screens on the windows, so some tropical bugs made their way into the rooms at night. Lovely eclectic place to recommend.

We had a wonderful time staying here. The monkeys were the best entertainment!

What a wonderful stay in monteverde. This property has tons of nature and feels perfect for the cloud forest. The rooms are scattered outside the main living area but this was perfect to give our teenagers their space. We mad a campfire at night to roast brats abs marshmallows. It was very much like camping with nature but staying safe inside. We were recommended the xtreme zip line tour and it was soooo awesome. Teens will never forget the experience. We also did a night tour of St Elena with a guide abs saw tarantula, frogs, birds, lizards, etc. Get to Monteverde cloud forest early to see the Quetzal bird. The park is so quiet and great am hike. My only regret is we could have stayed longer. Be sure to eat at Stella abs walk down the driveway for coffee and bakery in the am. What a perfect stay!

This property is a must ! The property is amazing with lush gardens/trees that attracts the butterflies, hummingbirds, birds and our favorite - monkeys ! The monkeys came around our balcony every morning and every afternoon. There were so much fun to watch and even had one monkey (we called jumper) that would jump on the roof of the balcony for a few minutes each day. The property also has an amphitheater - which my two adult children and 1 teenager daughter took advantage of and entertained us with songs from Hamilton and Hunchback. The property is very close to all activities. Most places picked us up at "Stella's" restaurant which is about a 5 minutes walk from the property. Rafa and Anita made sure that we had everything we needed and helped us book a few adventures including the Santa Marie night hike. There's plenty of space for everyone and the rooms were comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was stocked with spices, oil, etc and had all the dishes you could ask for. They even had firewood ready for us. I can't say enough about this place !! The only downside to this property is that this property would not be for someone that is unable to walk up steps. This property does have some steps going up and down but it wasn't a problem for our family. LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE !! My favorite property in Costa Rica !!
