We stayed for 3 days and 2 nights at this lovely hotel in our last leg of our CR trip. Tucked away in its own little forest yet still within walking distance from the town. Friendly and super helpful receptionists and even accommodated our early arrival. Rooms, bed, toilets are all clean. Our suite had a funny sewer smell on our master bath but we just opened the bathroom window and shut the door and it didn’t bother us as much. The hotel have two small heated pools. Not the best for kids but better than nothing. They also have two dedicated fire pit areas for night gathering. Which is pretty awesome. The Kire restaurant located in the hotel is amazing. Great views with awesome staff. Erick served us a handful of times and he always had a very warm and gentle smile. Erick and Diemen made some mean cocktail drinks. I highly recommend the Sol Kire and Lapa Negra drinks. The hotel is centrally located within all the tourist spots in Monteverde. The Natuwa Reserve Sanctuary is worth a visit. The only time we actually saw a sloth up close. The jags are amazing too.

The location is so perfect! Close enough to town but remote enough to see wildlife right outside your door. The staff were so lovely. I had a family emergency and they jumped to assist me. A special thanks to Marilyn. On the way back to San Jose, I began planning my next visit.

Just wonderful experience of three nights. Hotel remodeled in 2024 so really up to date with all amenities. Really comfortable bed, very good breakfast, and top notch restaurant. Staff was especially great and exceeded all expectations. Location great for surrounding activities.

The entire experience was perfect from beginning to end. The rooms had a stunning view with comfortable beds and were well appointed. The hotel staff were incredibly nice and eager to help. They made multiple recommendations that made our experience so much better than it would have been otherwise. The food was fresh and delicious (key ingredients are grown onsite). We will definitely be going back!

Book it, you won’t be disappointed! Our family stayed in the cloud bungalow, and the accommodations were incredible! We were incredibly comfortable and had plenty of room to spread out and relax while on the property. Everything is immaculate. The staff here make you feel like family and do everything they can to make you feel at home, honoring every request you can think of. We dined exclusively on property while we were here, and every time we were greeted by name by Erick, Allison or Fio. They arrived at our table with smiles, and fresh bread or croissants that are prepared onsite. Whether it was the breakfast, lunch or dinner, the food was incredible. Breakfast included delicious coffee, an amazing fruit plate, fresh baked croissants, and an item of your choice. The French toast is the best I have ever had, and the omelette had sautéed vegetables that were cooked to perfection. Lunch and dinner was equally delicious and carefully prepared to perfection! Erick made me the most incredible latte! One night we went just for dessert and it was so good my kids were scrapping the dish. Artisanal ice cream was so good! They arranged our tours and the transportation for us which made it possible for me to really relax. Anytime I messaged the reception, we received an immediate response and every need met. While it rained, there are umbrellas for your convenience all over the property and watching the rain from here is beautiful. The onsite hiking trails are perfect for getting outside, experience the local flora and fauna, with tons of birds! The views are the best. Our driver who picked us up for our next location who was from Costa Rica, said they were the best he has seen!

The setting was magical, the staff very friendly and the rooms truly comfortable. And Koora was a perfect spot for exploring all the special places in Monteverde from zip-lining to night walks.

Wspanialy pobyt, szkoda ze tylko jeden dzien… obsluga mila, pomocna. Naprawde polecam ten hotel, jedzenie pyszne - zarowno kolacja, jak i sniadanie. Ale najwiekszym plusem tego miejsca jest obsluga! Pomogli wszystko zorganizowac, a nawet kupic peleryny przeciwdeszczowe.
