We stayed in a family suite for 2 nights and the room appeared quaint at first glace but you quickly realize it is just rough all the way around. The faucet in the bathroom was so loose you had to hold the base to turn the water on. The toilet seat was also loose and the shower drained so slowly... more

The service was excellent. Lee Marvin welcomed us with drink when we checked in and remembered our names and room number ever time we were in the restaurant/bar. The breakfast was included with our room and it was good. The food at the restaurant was good if a bit pricey. The grounds are beautiful as was the view from our... more

Spent 2 nights there with 14 teenagers who are accustomed to traveling in style. We all thought the rooms were gorgeous and the bathrooms were as well. The only downfall was when everyone hit the showers at once we ran out of hot water and then water completely was out for awhile. The shuttle was always available and most of... more

We stayed in a family suite with a king bed and 2 twins in a loft. The room was stunning as we entered...2 story high ceilings, loft, entirely wood paneled walls and ceilings, beautiful wood detail on loft rail, natural rock accents. If we didn't have a car, I'm sure we would have quickly tired of the long uphill walk... more

If you plan to stay at the Heleconia I would recommend the upper units for the panoramic view - it really is spectacular and we enjoyed some time on the balcony taking it all in. On a clear day you can see the Gulf de Nicoya. The rooms are spacious and clean and for the most part the shuttle was... more

This hotel is in need of some upgrading. Our room was a decent size, very big comfortable beds but the room was decidedly drafty and cold, badly lit and the bathroom needed to be replaced. Staff were okay, but the overall feel of the place was rundown. Breakfast were okay, as was the restaurant. However there are better restaurants nearby,... more

While this hotel had some charm, I doubt I'd stay again. We were in a room on the very top, which was a 20 minute hike straight up a mountain. The breakfast, not included, was awful and over priced. Most annoying, however, was that we were totally ripped off by the travel desk--"Flora and Fauna." They assured us that we'd... more

MONTEVERDE AREA: We chose Monteverde for part of our honeymoon as I'd heard it was beautiful, and it did not disappoint. We did the zip lines at sky trek which has the longest and highest lines in the area, and it was fantastic; we also hiked through the national park which was truly spectacular, and very different than the forests... more
