About this property

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Bright Forest Retreat – 2BR w/ Balcony, Walk to Town, Birds & Wildlife
Welcome to our second-story eco-apartment in central Monteverde—a peaceful and inviting space designed for birders, nature lovers, families, and couples. Tucked among native trees and flowering plants that attract birds and wildlife, our home offers a rare combination of tranquility and walkable access to Monteverde’s best trails, shops, and restaurants.
Wake up to birdsong and morning mist as you sip coffee from your private balcony. You might spot toucans, monkeys, or even a curious coati passing by. In the evening, enjoy sunset colors over the canopy—a perfect end to a day of exploration.
What You’ll Love -
✔ 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment: one queen bed and one full bed—ideal for a family or two couples
✔ Private balcony with peaceful garden and sky views
✔ Fully equipped kitchen with essentials for home-cooked meals
✔ Hot water on demand and reliable 100 Mbps fiber-optic WiFi—great for remote work or streaming
✔ Safe, gated property with dedicated parking (no 4x4 needed)
✔ Bright, airy second-story unit with full access to shared gardens and small forest trail
Perfect Location in Monteverde -
✔ Just 3 km from Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve and Santa Elena town
✔ Walk to trails at Curi-Cancha and the Children’s Eternal Rainforest (Bajo del Tigre)—only 0.5 km away
✔ Directly across from:
- Monteverde Coffee Coop
- CASEM Women’s Artisan Coop
- La Cuchara de la Abuela
- Stella’s Bakery (a local favorite!)
You’re close to everything, yet nestled in a calm, bird-filled oasis. Our Eco-Friendly Commitment:
✔ Native trees and flowering plants designed to restore wildlife habitat
✔ On-site coffee plants growing Monteverde beans
✔ Compost and recycling available for guest use
✔ A portion of each stay is donated to CORCLIMA, supporting local conservation and climate efforts
✔ No pesticides used on property—we support a thriving food web for native birds and pollinators
A Note About Nature - Because you’re close to the forest, you may see harmless insects—part of the natural ecosystem here. We provide a clean, sanitized space between every stay and respect both guest comfort and the local environment. We also have essential oils and cotton if you want to rub across the window sill as this will help reduce mini-ants coming to visit. Even scorpions are not dangerous here, so we try to remember that they too serve an important purpose in our eco-system.
Your Stay, Your Way - We’re happy to offer personalized local tips—or give you complete privacy for a self-guided stay. Whether you’re traveling as a family or with friends, our home offers the perfect blend of comfort, calm, and connection to nature.
Make Your Monteverde Memories Here -Where forest meets community, and every morning starts with birdsong.
