Краткий обзор: It’s not a secluded jungle lodge; it’s a polished, busy hotel that feels like a safe, warm basecamp after a wet day of hiking.
Подтверждено @SpiceC1: I stayed here in Monteverde and it was magical. The private jacuzzi in my room was perfect, but the best part was spotting wild monkeys right in the hotel garden! It feels so authentic and peaceful, plus the location is super convenient.

5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The wind during 'windy season' (Nov-Feb) can sound like a freight train hitting the building.
💡The jacuzzi jets are sometimes weak, making it more of a 'warm bath' than a hydrotherapy session.
💡You can rent DVDs from the front desk if the cable TV options bore you.
💡The 'Garden' rooms sometimes just face a hedge, not a sprawling vista.
💡Room service food is the same as the restaurant menu but often arrives lukewarm due to the open-air transport.
