Breakfast was exceptional. Fruit coffee juice and toast to start witha choice of 5 cooked to order mains including a burrito, waffles, granola and youghert. Hotel is brand new with a lovely minimalist design, polished concrete floors, wood and glass over three blocks. Didnt fully appreciate that this is run to generate profits that go entirely educating local kids. Amazing. Dutch couple running it are inspiring. Great bedding options ( we got 3 singles)

This hotel among the forest is so beautiful! You stay in the middle of flowers, amazing trees, teaming with life: birds, monkeys, coatimundis...We really enjoyed walking the 1hr trail starting from the hotel. Restaurant and bar are very stylish and the view breathtaking. The bedrooms are very peaceful and comfortable with huge king size beds. We enjoyed the little wood souvenir we took home with us.

The house (the big one) exceeded our expectations: spacious, all necessary kitchen utilities available, privacy and comfort. The reception staff deserve our special thanks. They did much more than could be reasonably expected to organise the sending of the documents one of our friends had forgotten in Osa peninsula. The breakfast was generous and delicious. Thank you!

Absolutely breathtaking! Our stay at Hotel Belmar was nothing short of magical. Nestled in the stunning landscape of Monteverde, this hotel boasts the most picturesque location imaginable. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The food was delicious, offering a delightful taste of local cuisine. And oh, the view! Waking up to the breathtaking vistas from our terrace each morning was simply unforgettable. To top it all off, we even had the incredible experience of sharing breakfast with some curious monkeys. Hotel Belmar truly exceeded all expectations and made our time in Monteverde unforgettable. We can’t wait to return!

The location was perfect for our requirements - only a short drive to the Monterverde Ecological Park, the El Tigre waterfalls and a night hike we'd booked. Bars and restaurants were about 5 mins drive away and there was a good range to choose from. There was plenty of parking at the accommodation and only a very small number of rooms (5?) - also a jacuzzi outside that was on and hot 24/7. The room was clean and the bathroom very nice - a good supply of hot and cold running water, a fridge in the room, a small electric heater (which we did need!) and internet was reliable.

A trip to Monteverde is one of the big ticks on the list for visitors to Costa Rica. Getting there is quite hard going on dreadful roads. Not ideal for anyone with any back or joint problems. It is a wet area so expect downpours and to feel damp at all times even when it is dry outside. The main reason to visit is to see the cloud forests and for zip lining, otherwise there isn’t much else to do in the area. Other attractions such as Ranali frog pond, the butterfly garden are poor and not worth the time or money. I stayed for 3 days and it was too long. My favourite thing overall was seeing the hummingbirds at Monteverde cloud forest - not in the forest itself, but in a cafe area just before the entrance to the cloud forest!

If you like cooler temperatures, rainy & windy mountains in remote Costa Rica then this is for you. Its a unique experience to be that high up above sea level and theres plenty to do outside between coffee tours, ziplines & hikes. But in terms of the town itself, theres not a lot going on and its expensive but I guess thats what you pay for tranquility & remoteness. And if you're driving up there you better have a 4x4 or AWD vehicle because the majority of the roads up here are unpaved & windy AF. Spots to check out that made our trip: Don Juan Coffee Farm, the Butterfly Sanctuary, El Tigre Waterfalls, Kinkajou Night walk, 100% Aventura Ziplines for the longest Zipline in Latin America & lastly tree climbing at Finca Modelo. If you want to try authentic Costa Rican food (because hello why not!) skip out on the expensive restaurants and go to Pizzeria 3R y el Sazón de Mary - best part is that they're open late. Food was bomb! Overall, I wouldn't spend more than 2.5 days up here.

4-wheel drive recommended, but not essential.

4-wheel drive recommended, but not essential. My six-year old particularly enjoyed the animal experiences: sloths, frogs, snakes and butterflies at the Selvatura Adventure Park (which was expensive but worth it - very knowledgeable guides) and also the Bat Jungle. My favourite experience was walking the trails in the Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserve - very well marked and options for different levels of ability.

Loved the adventure parks (selvatura sloth rescue is a must!

Loved the adventure parks (selvatura sloth rescue is a must!) and area restaurants Bon appetit and taco taco. Chocolate and coffee tour also worthwhile. Night tours more insect and reptile focused than in other areas. Roads in the area are very narrow and twisty, hard for motion sickness travellers.

Great place for hikers.

Great place for hikers. Unfortunately most places you have to pay to enter and it's not cheap. But there are a few free places you can walk if you do your research. There is loads of stuff to do for everyone. Families and adventure junkies.

If you love the outdoors, go to Monteverde.

If you love the outdoors, go to Monteverde. We did a coffee/sugarcane/chocolate tour, a wildlife refuge tour, night time nature walk, zip lining, and a sloth experience. There were lots of different restaurants and we loved all of the ones we visited.

Gloria, Marcelo and Julio all made us feel at home. There were delicious breakfasts served on our terrace, from which we even saw some toucans. The location was great, we were able to walk to Santa Elena. The room itself was unique with it's wooden interior. It was clean and comfortable, and had a microwave and fridge. Mayco was very helpful in booking tours whilst we were there, we enjoyed the Selvatura Adventure Park ziplines and would definitely recommend the tour of Monteverde cloud forest with Javier, he was a brilliant guide.

You can't find better value for money in Monteverde/Santa Elena. The host, Lili, goes out of her way to help you. She never intrudes. Delicious free coffee in the morning. Parking at the door, as well as a small supermarket. Close to the village (a steep road though). Shower works very well. Kitchenette where you can make your own breakfast/dinner. Also a common room. Lili also helps to book activities (with discount).

Great room on the highest level with views right over Monteverde but I imagine it could be tough if you have mobility issues. The room was massive and the access to discounted rates at the Salvetura adventure park was well worth it. We only had breakfast in the hotel and eat all other meals in town particularly The Green and Choco Cafe both just down the road.

Everything. The whole hotel space/garden is just beautiful, a very relaxed and green atmosphere. The rooms are spacious, rustic but clean and comfortable. Breakfast is delicious and staff is very friendly. Right in the center as well so location is perfect, but not noisy at night as Monteverde is very quiet anyway. Do yourself a favour and stay here.

Perfectly located in Monteverde, for any activity in the cloud forest. The staff is super friendly. We enjoyed a very nice breakfast with a nice view. The staff at breakfast was super nice and introduced us to some animal visitors including a monkey :)
