The service at this hotel is excellent. The cabin we stayed in was beautiful and immaculate. There was a short walk up a hill to the cabin, but my parents, who are in their 60s, were able to make it without a problem. The porter helped us with the bags. We booked several tours (zip line, night walk) through the... more

Yes - it was a long walk up a grassy hill to our cabin but once there, it's bea-u-ti-ful. Backed up against a forest, gigantic wood balcony, fridge, comfortable beds, lots of birds, Only ate the free breakfast in the restaurant, but it was great. Pan fried toast, lots of fresh fruit, good coffee, and nice waiters. Even the ancient... more

The hotel is a rustic property situated in a forested area at an elevation in Monteverde. It has a nice view across to the Gulf of Nicoya. Physically, getting to your room will be a challenge - especially for seniors or those who are averse to physical activity. The accommodations were really spartan although the bird and monkey calls in... more

This place is so cute if you like rustic cabins. There is NO TV. But it has a fireplace. When you checkin they give you a flashlight to get to your room. There are no lights around the campgrounds. It is walking distance from everything. But to leave the campgrounds is a long walk down the trail and to the... more

We didnt have a fridge which we thought we would, there were no views, there was a coffee machine that you had to buy the coffee for from reception which i wasnt impressed with, and the included breakfast was... more

We stayed here for 3 nights as part of out tour of Costa Rica. The hotel was just outside Santa Elena, you can walk into town but beware walking back if it is dark as the road is bad and unlit. The cabin was very spacious and clean, sparsley furnished. We had a moutainside one, and it really felt you... more

We stayed at El Sapo Dorado in April for 1 night and were disappointed. The no frills room/cottage in which we stayed didn't have much of a view. The restaurant was nice and the service was great. We had wanted to do a noctural tour to the cloud forest and booked it at the front desk. Instead of booking the... more

If you notice on the web site of this hotel, there are some pictures of the inside of the rooms. I don't know where those rooms were, but it was not # 14. This was a "sunset view" room. There was a nice balcony with a good view. We saw quite a few birds on the property. It was a... more

The rooms here were recently renovated and they show it. The bathrooms were very nice and the room was quite comfortable. It got cold enough at night that we used the fireplace. It would have been nice to have a couch or something in front of the fireplace. We loved staying here - very close to the Monteverde cloud forest,... more
