We had a nice stay at the Jaguarundi Lodge. There were definitely pluses and minuses to the accommodation. On the plus side, the staff was lovely and the cabin was very clean. It was definitely rustic, but was nestled in the jungle and so it was a cool immersive experience. We had coati, agouti and lots of birds at our doorstep. The breakfast buffet was very good and was served in their sister hotel, the Ficus. There was also a great happy hour there with a gorgeous view across the mountains to the ocean. The hotel was right in town so we could easily walk to restaurants. On the minus side, the cabin is adjoining another one. The walls were so thin that you could hear the neighbour rolling over in bed, snoring and chatting during the night. We had a great sleep the first night when the cabin next door was empty but after that it was noisy. The paths between the buildings are very steep. This wasn't a problem for us but it should be considered if you have mobility issues. Finally, we found a scorpion on our bag on the last morning. If you don't like creepy crawlies, you might not be happy here.

In a side-by-side sharing a wall. It’s true what they say about no noise barrier. Only stayed over one night. Fortunately we had a quiet neighbour. Great feel for being “in the jungle”

Room was clean and staff very helpful. The breakfast at the Fiscus hotel was very good . The area around the hotel is really neat - right in the forest . Felt like a cabin. Our only complaint would be the poor lighting in the room. Perhaps LED lights would brighten the room.

La jungle à proximité de Monteverde

Nous avons aimé l’endroit. Les bâtiments sont immergés dans la jungle tout en étant près des activités de Monteverde. Malheureusement, de notre côté, nous avons eu des nuits difficiles puisque les branches cognaient continuellement sur notre toiture, nous empêchant de dormir. Ce fut réparé après la deuxième nuit. L’endroit est simple mais très propre. Parfait pour observer les oiseaux le matin. De plus, il y a un petit sentier agréable sur le site, qui n’est pas très long. Les déjeuners sont servis par l’hôtel associé (le Ficus). C’est une des meilleures tables de la région, de plus, la vue est magnifique.

I thought the property was wonderful - if you like to camp and stay in a cottage. There was no AC, but the staff provided us with a fan when we asked. Quite honestly we did not need the fan as it got quite chilly at night. I would say though that this property is not accessible at all. There is a lot of steep walking and stairs. We had to carry our luggage quite far and it got heavy at one point. If you have any knee/ back pain, I would not suggest this place. Otherwise, it is perfect the able-bodied individuals. There are howler monkeys and a lot of animals in the trees- they make scary sounds but are mostly harmless!

Beautiful property in a great location. I knew the walls were thin from other reviews and it was true. Room VERY basic. 2 beds, one side table.... No chairs, no lamps. Only a ceiling light which does not offer enough light...definitely not for reading. Temp was 62 and there is no heat..and that might be off putting for some

Visiting Monteverde we knew it was going to be a bit colder, darker, rainier. However, when booking hotels - everything was so expensive. We settled on this hotel. The location is great, right in the forest and you feel like you are quite isolated in your own nature reserve which is awesome! However our room was very damp and smelt of mould (and had mould on the clothes hangers). The rooms and decor are very dark (dark wood, 70s patterns on the bedding and curtains) so all together it just felt very drab. They could benefit from a few upgrades/brightening up (neutral colours) and better ventilation to truly make this hotel amazing. Staff were excellent though and very helpful! Downside if you are staying in one of the cabins is that you do have to trek quite a bit with your luggage to get to the room and parking near the cabins is minimal. If you have mobility issues I would recommend staying in one of the main building rooms or requesting a cabin closer to the restaurant.
