A peaceful Monteverde retreat with exceptional hospitality, comfortable rooms, and a great breakfast
Pros:

From the moment we arrived, we knew we'd made the right choice. The staff welcomed us with genuine smiles and authentic Pura Vida hospitality that made us feel at home throughout our stay.

The hotel is a modern, beautifully maintained oasis surrounded by lush greenery. Our room was spotless, quiet, and thoughtfully equipped with a comfortable bed, A/C, coffee, tea, a mini fridge, and a private balcony overlooking nature. After long days of hiking and ziplining, the excellent water pressure and endless hot water were an unexpected luxury.

Breakfast was outstanding every morning, with delicious local fruit, great coffee, and plenty of fresh options to start the day. The location was ideal—close enough to walk to Santa Elena's restaurants and shops in about 20 minutes, yet far enough away to enjoy complete peace and quiet.

If you're looking for exceptional hospitality, comfortable modern rooms, an amazing breakfast, and a relaxing place to experience Monteverde, Calathea Hotel is an outstanding choice. It exceeded our expectations and was one of the highlights of our Costa Rica trip.

Pros:

Le fait que ce soit un petit appartement, chacune notre chambre nous donnait un peu plus d'intimité! Situation géographique très bien pour les activités à faire autour. Les déjeuners sont complets (fruits; jus de fruit, café) et les omelettes sont excellentes!!

Cons:

Manque un peu de vaisselle pour cuisiner (passoire pour les pâtes, tasse à mesurer) mais on s'en est bien sortie quand même. Un ou deux linges de vaisselle de plus auraient été appréciés (pour laver la vaisselle et le comptoir)
