This hotel offers a pleasant stay with stunning views over the Gulf of Nicoya and excellent locally sourced dining. We really enjoyed the breakfast. The room felt slightly outdated and the bathroom design is impractical, as the floor floods during showers. Access to the property is via an unpaved road. Overall, it was a decent experience, though not a very memorable one.

“Peaceful Monteverde lodge”
The rooms were large, comfortable and had an excellent view. The bathroom was also nice and had a great strong shower. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet - there was always lots of food available. They also allowed us to change our booking despite it being non refundable.

“Quiet, Comfortable, Relaxed Vibe”
We stayed four nights in the new annex (just opened this year) and loved the view, decor, and comfortable beds. It was peaceful and quiet—exactly what we wanted. Housekeeping staff were visible but unobtrusive, and the chickens reminded us we were on a farm! Breakfast was included on a 2-day rotation. The fresh yogurt with farm honey was delicious, and both room and restaurant coffee were excellent and replenished daily. The wood-fired pizza was unbelievably good. We enjoyed every meal we ate there. The restaurant staff were delightful, service-oriented, and remembered our preferences after two days. We met lovely tourists with the same relaxed vibe and enjoyed sunset Happy Hour nightly. We ate dinner there three of four nights, because it was so good and so convenient! Highlights included a jungle walk on premises where we saw leaf-cutter ants, an easy drive to Monteverde Cloud Forest Park (spotted a quetzal, tarantula, and howler monkeys), and the neighbouring Butterfly Garden with beautiful Blue Morphos.

“Great hotel with a lovely nature reserve”
The property is lovely, so many animals around - the kids loved spotting the coatis and lizards as we walked to and from our room! The nature reserve is great to explore and we did the night hike through the hotel as well which was amazing. Loved the bar and the happy hour! It was great to be able to sit and enjoy the sunset with a happy hour drink while the kids played on the bikes and scooters the hotel has available.

“Beautiful location but staff attitude did not match.”
The location is beautiful with wonderful views over the valley. We also loved the short nature walks on the property where we saw monkeys and other wildlife. The room was comfortable and well set out.

Valle Escondido offers wonderful views of Monteverde and the cloud forest. The rooms are very comfortable and a good size. The trails behind the hotel are really fun to explore and we enjoyed the happy hour at the bar each evening.

“Outstanding views”
The location is fantastic, not far from Santa Elena and various amenities but also quiet and with beautiful views. The walking trails and lookout points are brilliant and not to be missed, well maintained and signposted too. The staff are friendly and helpful and the room was clean and with a very comfortable bed.
