Room was very musty, and the bed were very uncomfortable. They gave us the wrong room and we got really wet to go back to reception to get another room. I asked for an extra towel and they say No. only one towel per guest.

Wonderful hotel
We had a wonderful stay! Everyone was so nice. We were greeted with a lovely lemonade and ginger drink. The grounds are well manicured with beautiful flowers and fountains. We ate at the restaurant for dinner and breakfast and the food was great. The rooms are clean. They are not air conditioned, but it gets cool at night and we were comfortable.

Safe, clean hotel. No elevators. Minimal places to hang clothes or unpack. Good breakfast buffet. Helpful staff. We were able to use pool facilities at sister hotel, although not advertised. Would stay again. Lots of families, so not so quiet though.

This is a lovely little gem tucked away in Santa Elena. Great for families, couples and large groups. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant is fantastic. Lots of outdoor seating and garden areas to relax. Would recommend and hope to return.

Great place to stay while visiting the area. The room was quite comfortable, the breakfast on site in the hotel's own restaurant was great, and there was a great second choice restaurant just across the street. We ended up eating there twice and the food was great with great prices. The hotel is convenient to everything but just far enough away from the noise of the downtown to relax and enjoy your visit. I would definitely stay there again.

Check in process was almost 2 hours later after arriving because they gave the room we booked to someone else. They were expecting 3 grown men sleeping in just one king size bed even thought we book one queen bed and 2 twin beds.

Monteverde Country Lodge was an excellent choice for our visit to the Santa Elena area. The on-site restaurant served delicious food and had nice happy hour specials. We enjoyed multiple meals there. Location is close to all major sites/activities. Property had gardens with fountains and sitting areas to enjoy after each day's activities. Staff provided excellent customer service. Would definitely stay here again.

Uncomfortable mattresses. Zero exhaust fans , no fans...so if you have wet clothes it's gonna stink up the room. Rooms look nice. Front desk staff could use a bit more of the Pura vida niceness. Wait staff in the restaurant was good. Food was decent.

Nice hotel with a restaurant on premises. The rooms were clean and the facilities well kept. We reached the hotel a little late for one of the tours and the hotel staff helped take care of our luggage so we could head out for the tour. The restaurant staff also managed to accommodate our dietary restrictions even though some options were not on the menu. MonteVerde is colder and has higher humidity and as the rooms don't have AC it can be hard to keep clothes or bathrooms dry.
