Costa Rica's Monteverde Lodge & Gardens
Monteverde Lodge & Gardens
Located in the Tilarán Mountain Range at 4,600 ft. above sea level on the edge of the world's best-known mid-elevation cloud forest, Monteverde Lodge is the expression of Costa Rica Expeditions' desire to create the ultimate lodging experience for the discerning nature traveler. The Lodge has 24 standard rooms and 3 garden rooms.
The dining room with its cloud forest mural, abundant tropical flora, and contemporary design is the perfect setting for enjoying the international and local dishes created by the talented chef, Valentin Corral. The rooms at the Lodge are designed to put you "in the forest" while protecting you from the mist and strong wind so characteristic of the area. All are spacious with solar heated hot water private baths.
Emphasizing ferns and bromeliads, the lodge has chosen native plant species that replicate the natural cloud forest and attract its fauna. A running stream, pond and small waterfall provide a habitat for riverine birds and a host of reptiles and amphibians. Carefully placed benches provide a comfortable place, offer privacy and/or panoramic vistas to observe the wildlife, read, write, or just wile away the hours.
