"Property felt secure"

"Great hotel. The breakfast was super good and had three options. The staff was super helpful and nice. I would definitely recommend!"

"Mejorar en muchas áreas."

"This property is absolutely beautiful and located a short walk from the heart of town. The front desk is extremely helpful and arranging anything you might need including dining reservations and making recommendations for activities in the area. The rooms are beautiful and a view of the valley is breathtaking"

"Fantastic view and pretty good privacy, although wish the owners hadn't let their kids run all over the property. There is a short "nature trail" which is more like a little path that runs right behind the door to the house --- kind of annoying. It's not a great path and it takes away from privacy. In my mind this is a novelty property, not a luxury property. You can see the outside below through the slats in the floor, and the place comes with a can of Raid for any bugs you encounter. We actually had a tarantula in our bedroom upon check-in, which the staff was happy to come take care of. Bugs definitely get on the balcony, so you can't turn outside or hall lights on at night. But if you are ok with getting a stray little beetle out of the hot tub before you fill it, or sweeping a bug off the balcony, then no issues. Just be aware, you're in a rain forest. Think "super nice glamping" more than a luxury stay. They ask that you turn off the A/C if you are leaving for more than 10 mins -- that proved to be too hot, so we didn't completely comply. All that said, the house had the right amenities, nice kitchen, and was pretty comfortable overall. The staff leaves you alone unless you want them to clean the room ... all communication through WhatsApp so no one is knocking on the door at odd hours. It was super convenient to Santa Elena (cute nearby town) as well as Monteverde Cloud Forest. And you definitely cannot beat the view from this place."

"The property was very nice, the overall area is somewhat depressed. Tours that we booked in the area were good"

"The was the perfect place to stay in Monteverde. Cala Lodge was in a good location; very quiet and lots of wildlife hanging around. They had a wonderful breakfast and super friendly staff. A few nice restaurants, a market, and bakery within a 5 minute walk."

"Excellent choise quite far from “downtown” but super close to the reserve and in the hotel you can spot flora and fauna as well as the reserve "

"Amazing place. Seriously loved it. "
