Great place. Comfortable and quiet.

We had some trouble finding the place when we arrived after sunset. I think more can be done to help guest find this rather obscure spot faster when they arrive.Other than that, the hosts were very cordial, the room was comfortable, and the grounds were idyllic.

Idyllic setting

We spent a wonderful two nights in this property. Whilst a slightly unusual set up, everyone appreciated having their own space. The rooms were spotlessly clean and the beds were some of the comfiest we have come across in a vacation home. We enjoyed excellent breakfasts from Stella’s and had a nice meal at the local Italian restaurant (also within walking distance) The cloud forest is a 5 minute drive and we also did a night safari at the Monteverde Reserve, but we also enjoyed spotting birds, coati and agouti exploring the wonderful garden

Monteverde Paradise

We had the most wonderful time in Monteverde. Adolfo’s communication leading up to our trip was excellent and he answered all questions promptly. The emails we exchanged were very helpful and he was accommodating with our late arrival and special request for the day we checked out. Adolfo’s property was exactly what we had hoped it would be and more! Upon arrival we were greeted by Adolfo’s lovely mother, Regina who showed us around the property, answered all our questions, and gave us recommendations of things to do in the area. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and the kids loved playing soccer on the grassy lawn, playing in the treehouse, and in the morning we woke up to find monkeys in the trees. The rooms and bathrooms were large and comfortable with huge windows overlooking the lush grounds. We had a group of eight-four kids, four adults, but the property could easily accommodate larger groups and would be the perfect spot for a multi-family vacation. The location was perfect. Our airline messed up our flights so we had to cut our time in Monteverde short, but thanks to being so close to everything we were still able to do a cloud forest reserve tour, night hike, zip lining, and the hanging bridges during our short stay. Everyone in our party agreed that if we could do the trip again we would stay at this property in Monteverde longer and do less time at the beach. We were all sad to leave, but hope to return another time Thank you, Adolfo and Regina! We’ll be back!

Everything was perfect at Adolfo’s place. Communication was quick and easy. The place was exactly as described. We each had our own rooms and a shared kitchen. Our host and hostess were available for questions and suggestions. You can walk across the street for great coffee and breakfast at Stella’s. Monkeys joined us if we were early enough. Tramico’s waS great for dinner. We would definitely stay there again.

Fantastic property in an excellent location in monteverde. The property was spacious and the grounds were beautiful. It worked very well for our large family that included kids and grandparents. We saw monkeys and birds while relaxing outside. Several bakeries are located within a 5 min walk. The location was a very short drive to several of the rainforest reserves and restaurants we went to. I highly recommend this place.

Beautiful place in an amazing location!!

We loved this property! The wildlife on the property-birds, agoutis, monkeys passing through was incredible. The housing was fabulous and the central area cozy and quaint. We had a large party of 12-3 families. We loved hanging out on this property and walking to the Co-op, cafe, and market. There were plenty of places to go within walking distance and we loved the proximity to the parks and to dining. We all wish we could have stayed at this location a bit longer. Thank you for allowing us to share this beautiful villa!

Amazing nature!

This property was stunning! We saw so many birds from the yard! Agoutis roam around, and white faced monkeys visited in the trees and put on a show for us two days in a row. It was truly spectacular. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating for our large group, and great at giving recommendations of things to do and where to eat.

Incredible!

Best place I could imagine staying for our trip to Monteverde! This property is walking distance to coffee shops, small supermarket and restaurants, and a long hilly walk, or short drive to a larger city center with large supermarkets, tons of restaurants, and souvenir shops. We loved the quiet location with a private yard and enclosed group gathering room separate from the private sleeping quarters. Our group was three couples and two 13 year old girls. Each pair had their own private room with bathroom, and we could meet for meals in the separate building. Monkeys came through the trees on the property, and the Agoutis are regular guests (think large harmless guinea pig)! Lots of beautiful birds including toucans. The property is meticulously maintained! There's an awesome treehouse on the property. The gate provides for private off-road parking, though a 4WD vehicle is a must not only for the roads leading to Monteverde, but for the highly banked driveway entering the property. You will not find a more relaxing and perfectly suited location for a family or group of friends visiting this area! The hosts are incredibly gracious and more than happy to help ensure a perfect vacation!

Excellent Stay

This location was perfect in every way for our family of eight adults and two children. Communication prior to arrival in Costa Rica was excellent and very responsive. Adolfo arranged a private tour guide for us in the Cloud Forest Preserve which was amazing. Samuel has been guiding groups through the Cloud Forest for many years. It was wonderful to see the Forest through his eyes. She also had several excellent recommendations for places to eat and things to do. The location was within walking distance of several excellent restaurants and a mini market, yet it seemed we were in the middle of the forest at the Villa. There were sightings of toucan, parrots, white-faced capuchin and parrots from the property. Gabriel was a pleasant and attentive host without being intrusive. Thank you for making our time in Monteverde memorable.

Villa Yerbabuena was the perfect property in Monteverde for our group! The individual rooms allowed our big group to spread out while being nearby and using the common space to gather. Regina was wonderful to work with - she helped us book private tour guides for the Cloud Rainforest, make reservations at her favorite restaurants in town, and personally met our group for check in. I would highly recommend this property!
