Great house, but needs some work.
After a long day of travel my friends and I were very excited to arrive at the treetop house. The property is absolutely beautiful and while it was late when we arrived, we were all blown away by the house itself. Upon closer inspection the house had noticeably been neglected. Spiders and dead bugs were abundant in the beds at the lowest level, while spider webs were visible on the ceilings in every room. There was a nest of baby spiders in the lowest bathroom, which really stinks because that shower was cool. Another issue we ran into were the ants. Ants were everywhere. Even before bringing any food into the house we noticed ants in some of the beds. By the end of our first full day here there were ants everywhere you looked. There is also nothing sealing the doors closed, so one night while we were playing games in the upstairs room a tarantula hawk somehow made its way into our space. We were able to handle all of these things ourselves as 6 friends in our early 20s, but I feel these things are important for people to know before booking the space. Don’t get me wrong, we still had a fantastic time at the treetop house. Check in was simple, same with check out. Sabine gave very clear instructions on how to get to the property. There were plenty of rooms to accommodate our group, despite not entering the lowest level after the bug issues. It is a great location in monteverde, and it feels pretty secluded. I would recommend to a friend, but it would come wIt’s a warning!

Top-tier host, charming property in a magical place
Monteverde is a magical place, and the treehouse offers a great location, charm, and amazing host for new and returning visitors. Sabine offered insightful advice and help with sketching out and booking an itinerary and was attentive in all communication. The various levels of the treehouse have private access points/keys so you can easily allow groups to spread out and get some space for individual privacy and downtime while easily being able to reconnect as a whole group. Completely luscious surroundings and beauty. It's a very special property in a place the whole world should strive to visit.

Treehouse in the forest
The property is whimsical and charming, but a lot of stairs and different areas are not connected to each other. Fairly close to town and some shops and coffee houses. Great views of the forest. Loved hearing the birds in the morning. The kitchenette was bare bones and not easy to cook in. We ended up going out for more meals than we planned on.

Amazing Treetop House
Our 8 person stay in the Treetop House was great! It was a little difficult to find, in the rain, but we managed. If you're visiting, the driveway to the property is next to a golden round globe. We drove past it a couple of times! The house itself is super interesting. Lots of fun spaces, funky decor, and a maze of interconnected rooms. You really are in the trees, and the experience is well worth it. I have a super sensitive nose, so some of the earthy smells of the woods inside the home threw me off, but the host was super responsive, listened to my concerns and quickly attempted to address them. The kids, ages 11-19, loved that they had their own space, in some cases their own floor, and didn't want to leave. All in all, I recommend staying here if you're into eclectic, natural spaces.

Great Time at a Quirky Place in the Cloud Forest
My family with 5 boys spent a couple nights at the Treetop House and had a great time. The place is huge. Very artsy and unique. Much more of a rustic experience, though we personally were fine with it, just be prepared!

We loved this very funky house! Plenty of bedrooms for all, and several spaces to gather and watch wildlife. We saw toucans, parrots, monkeys, and even a pair of golden-browed chlorophonia. Within walking distance of several restaurants and Curi-Cancha Reserve. Sabine is communicative and very helpful.

Unique home
Pros- the host is very helpful with booking activities in town for my family. Lots of beds so great place for several people. House is near cute local cafes and art shops and walking distance to a beautiful waterfall. Cons- the floors creak so much. You can hear every footstep from the floor above. There was no hot water so I hope you enjoy cold water showers with very little water pressure. The bottom level shower head is over the toilet. Whoever is using the bathroom after you has to basically dry the entire bathroom and toilet because there is no shower curtain. The beds are very hard. Bring your own pillows and bath towels.

Spent Christmas break with my daughters and their children. The house was perfect for providing privacy for our party of 8 that included 4 teenagers who appreciated having some personal space. Sabine was a most wonderful host - helping plan our activities, securing reservations and recommending knowledgeable guides. Plenty of nearby restaurants, shops and vistas to explore .

Fun, rustic house
This house is a bit unusual but in a good location with lots of space. Be prepared for some steep outdoor staircases though! The rooms were nice with enough space for everyone to spread out. The views of the trees and the visiting birds were great. The house was closer to "civilization" than I expected. On the up side this meant there were about 4 restaurants, two hiking areas / reserves, and a shopping area within walking distance. CASEM is in the shopping area and has great souvenirs. There is a small market next to it with basics like milk but also flour and sugar. Not many American brands though. There is also a nice selection of milk, cheese, and bread at the Cheese Factory. However being so close to all these things meant we had more road noise than I expected. Not bad, but I really didn't expect any. It was mostly noticeable in the morni g and late afternoon. There was also noise between floors (mostly walking on the floorboards) but once everyone was settled for the night it was quiet. We had a little problem with hot water and toilets but not too significant. Kitchen was better than expected, although small. Knives were dull but plenty of dishes, pots and pans, etc. The stairs are not for the faint of heart, especially in rain and/or dark. No one fell or anything but everyone was nervous especially if the were carrying something. Overall we really enjoyed our time there and would recommend it.

Unique stay in the jungle
We really enjoyed our stay at the tree top House. It felt like sleeping in the jungle. The location is great and there is a lot of space for everyone. we were a family of 7 adults but there would have been enough space for 10 more:). The only challenge was the strong winds at night that kept my kids awake a little but to me, this is part of the charm.

Treehouse adventure for our families
We had a wonderful time staying at Sabine’s treehouse with our 2 families. There was plenty of space for all of us, and Sabine was wonderful in planning all of our activities for us. She scheduled guided tours with amazing guides, gave us great recommendations, and answered every question properly. She even went so far as to order birthday cakes with hand-written messages (one regular and she found a gluten free cake as well!) for us as we had two birthdays to celebrate. It took a lot of the stress of planning away from the trip and made it a wonderful experience.

Cute Treehouse
The overall property was nice and in a very unique location - it was nice to have so many options for beds as well. There is limited bathrooms and not a lot of hot water so that was a little frustrating for the group. For some floors you do have to go to other levels to use bathroom, and one of the stairs had a damaged step which cut my foot. There also isn't a microwave which was fine but just an FYI to people when shopping for food. We did see monkeys, lemurs and other cool animals from our treehouse which was very fun! Located within 10 minutes of longest zipline in latin america

Fun unique house set in the clouds
Sabine's house was a beautifully set unique home with 5 levels and multiple bedrooms. Loved the view from the small porch area on the third levels where wonderful birds visited every morning. Sabine was easy to communicate with and any supplies we needed were readily available. The property was set outside of Monteverde and private. The towns square was easily accessible with a short 2 minute drive. During our time there we went horseback riding at her stables and zipling at the original canopy tour both a must in our opinion.. our 4 children ages 6,9,11 &13 loved the many different places to explore on the property. Loved our time at Sabine's treetop house.

Sabine was great, she set up tours, arranged transportation and was readily available. If you won't have your own car I suggest getting groceries before you check in. The house is set up into mini apartments with a lot of stairs which could be difficult for some. The decor fits with environment. We had a great time in Monteverde, it is a beautiful area.

Fantasy Tree House
If you ever dreamed of living in a tree house, then this is the place. This 4-level home really brings that feeling alive. It's got lots of fun architectural details that will make the kid in you smile - and kids of all ages will love it. There's a ton of beds and enough bathrooms. The 4 floor lay out gives everyone their own space. Although we had a minor issue with the propane stove on the first night, we managed to cook for 7 people in the top floor kitchen. This space would not be good for people with mobility issues, but for anyone else it will be a very memorable and enjoyable vacation stay.
