Can’t say enough about our hosts. Breakfast freshly cooked, extremely accommodating. Very helpful with tours and transportation to sites(free). Rooms a bit on small side but comfy
It was incredible to see monkeys and a coati on the property.
Tony was an amazing & friendly host.
The breakfast was absolutely delicious.
Would definitely recommend this stay to others

The staff was very helpful, breakfast was very good. The rooms themselves are dated.
We had an amazing time, Tony was extremely helpful in setting up some adventures for us that we actually stayed an extra night to enjoy Monteverde. Tony was amazing and we definitely recommend staying here.
We were greeted by a group of cappuccino monkeys, a coati, and a capybara outside our room. All before breakfast. The staff was kind and helpful. Loved this stay!!!
We have had such an amazing stay at Dreams Lodge. Tony and Monse are so helpful and endearing and always greeted us with a smile.We were also lucky enough to meet Tony's brother and wife and granddaughter.
The close encounter with tbe monkeys and seeing such incredibly beautiful birds including
the elusive Bell Bird. The breakfast was huge and so delicious. This is the place to stay in Monteverde!!
Tony is an amazing host. He knows all of the area attractions and will do all he can to make your stay relaxed and enjoyable. The water temp in the shower is a bit tricky and brought the total score down a bit. Breakfast is delicious and prepared individually.
Our stay at Dreams Lodge was phenomenal. Tony was incredibly friendly and welcoming and made our experience one to remember. The homemade breakfast was absolutely delicious. Tony helped us find monkeys, and brought bananas for us to give to them. He had great recommendations for activities and food around MonteVerde. They made sure you were well taken care of and that you enjoyed your stay. We will definitely stay here again. Would recommend this place to anyone.

We got to see Capuchin monkeys. The staff was very friendly and professional. The breakfast was delicious and variety. This lodge hotel is not fancy, but it has a cozy feeling.
Very cute property. Nice, clean, smaller rooms. Beds were very comfortable. Hot water came and went (solar water heaters, so not available all of the time). Property was small, but lots of animals. Staff was very helpful! Walkable to grocery store and restaurants.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This property felt like staying at a good friend’s house. The manager, Tony, his staff, made us feel like family and went out of their way to help welcome us to Monteverde by not only recommending activities, but arranging them for us and making sure the tour companies actually took care of us. The breakfast every morning was made with care and the service was truly hospitable. The smallest minor issue is that there is no Air Conditioning in the room, which is expected in an eco-friendly lodge, however, the patio door had no screen, either so although it would have been lovely to get some fresh air into the room- the night critters from the forest made that impossible. Overall, the was the most personable lodging in our whole trip and we would highly recommend for someone seeking something family-owned and quiet.
