Wonderful immersion in the jungle, but still close in
The house was fine, although we strongly dislike the cold white light bulbs that everyone seems to be buying these days. (You can get LED bulbs in warmer, more natural feel light but you have to look for them.) There was no end table or lamp in the living room so no alternative to the cold white light from the ceiling fixtures. Nightstands and lights beside the bed were a nice feature we often don't see in other places we stay when we travel. If you don't want people wearing shoes in the house, it would be really nice to have a boot tray on the floor beside the main entry door. It would also be a nice addition to have a place for guests to hang raincoats and hats when they come inside. The check-in process has a BIG problem: the written directions to the property are very misleading. The house is no "immediately after you cross the bridge." It would be far more accurate to say, "The driveway is about 100m up the road BEYOND the bridge."

This place is an older home but it is clean. There is amazing woodwork throughout the house. It is secluded and quiet. The kitchen is well stocked with paper towels. 😀 No paper towels or napkins at any of the places we stayed except this place. I guess I am pretty dependent on my paper towels.

Wonderful Visit
We had a wonderful visit at the Forest Garden house. We were very comfortable. Daniella was a fantastic host. We saw monkey, agotai, a toucan, coati, many butterflies and hummingbirds right out our windows. The house was close to everything we needed yet privately tucked away in the forest.

Pleasant Stay in Monteverde!
Conveniently located minutes from the town of Santa Elena, this home has everything you need for a comfortable stay! The interior has beautiful wood accents and everything you need to fix a meal or cup of coffee -- which you can enjoy outside in the gazebo! In the mornings you can see agouti in the forest/backyard (who love to eat your fruit scraps)! Daniella was quick to respond to my messages, there to greet us despite us changing the arrival time (a few times), and she delivered fans immediately upon request! We highly recommend this home for your stay in Monteverde!

Lovely cottage in the cloud forest
The property is as described. Daniela was quick and always informative when replying to messages. We were a party of five and there was room for all of us. Daniela recommended a tour guide to us (George/Jorge) who is excellent. Between the cottage accommodation and fantastic tour guide we had a great few days in Monteverde.

Amazing Stay in Monteverde!
I would definitely have wanted to stay here longer. The property was super clean, well appointed with a large kitchen and laundry, and in such a wonderful location. It was so quiet at night and super close to the cloud forest. Daniela set up a night tour that was fabulous. She is super responsive to all my questions, and I really appreciated that! If you go visit Monteverde definitely stay here! You won't be disappointed in the wonderfully immersive experience that this location provides!

Amazing location!
Forest Garden home is very central to Monteverde, which is a delightful Costa Rican mountain town. It was slightly tricky to find the first time, but once there, it is very easy to get around. Plenty of parking for 2-3 cars on the private drive. In the town, the co-op coffee shop was amazing and restaurant/art shop across the street had slightly pricey, but delicious food. The home is also just a 10 minute drive from the Monteverde Cloud Forest park. We zip lined, hiked the preserve, and went on a coffee tour all nearby. The house itself was comfortable, but could use a few improvements. TV was great, and we brought our Roku, plugged it in, and streamed our favorite shows in the evenings. However, all the beautiful couches were very hard. There could be a lot more pillows and cushions. As lovely as the tree couches are, trading them for a few more comfortable chairs/couches would be nice. Also, the lighting in the room was a bit awkward and dark. Kitchen seemed to have most things we needed for basic cooking and the refrigerator was full size and worked great. A new sponge would have been nice. Bedrooms were small and basic, but that is fine. The bathroom could be a bit more finished, but everything worked. Perhaps a few extra towels and blankets around would be nice. Washer and dryer worked fine, and soap was provided.

Quaint Basic Cottage
It was beautiful and in a great location, but I was underwhelmed with the textiles. There were only enough towels for one per person and, in a wet climate, didn't dry very fast. The bedding was very basic, not very comfortable. Seating in living area was not comfortable at all so we didnt have a space for the family to gather and relax. They did have everything you would need from day to day, but owner/manager seemed more worried about guests stealing stuff than they were about guests being comfortable.

The windows were beyond amazing- so clean it felt like you were one with nature. The kitchen was well equipped, location perfect and house sparkling clean.

Beautiful property 5min from Cloud Forest. Spectacular location. Lovely host, quick to respond. Two small notes: 1) the driveway is short, but steep and unpaved. 4 wheel drive is advisable in the rainy season. 2) If you have breathing issues, run the dehumidifier all the time. Most of the windows in the house do not open, so it gets very stuffy. Otherwise a great stay.

Great location and accomodations
The forest garden house was in an ideal location for Monteverde, wth the town on one side and the biological preserve on the other side. A small grocery store was easy to walk to as well. The house was just what we were looking for... It has the feeling of being secluded without actually being secluded. We enjoyed the outside area to relax in hammocks, and inside there was a full kitchen, three nice bedrooms, and a really large bathroom. The giant windows made it easy to enjoy the view! The local property manager was also great. She gave us excellent recommendations for food and a night tour guide!

Nice house close to Monteverde Cloud Forest
Very nice house, spotlessly clean and quiet (although you'll be waken up by the birds very early). The host was always very attentive to our requests and solve minor issues promptly. We got to see a magnificent toucan from the garden as well as other small mammals. The house is conveniently located near the Monteverde cloud Forest and the Curi Cancha Reserve.

Gem in Monteverde
We loved our stay at the Forest Garden House. It was well-maintained, comfortable, and had a quaint, almost lodge-like feel to the house itself. The yard and gazebo were a nice buffer between the forest and the home and provided an easy outdoor space to watch the wildlife. Seeing creatures around here really required as little effort as stepping out the backdoor. One morning a group of toucans roosted in the treetops and we were able to enjoy watching them-while drinking coffee! The location is a close walk to the food coop and Stella's Cafe, as well as numerous reserves, but still feels tucked away and off the beaten path. Our host, Daniela, was responsive and accommodating. This was by far our favorite lodging during our trip-we didn't want to leave. Monteverde is a wonder and the Forest Garden House was the perfect home base to experience it from. I hope we'll be back.
