Close to all in Montverde. Beautiful gardens. We had a car so everything was easily accessible. Abit dated but clean and well maintained. I loved the kitchen. A great homebase for Montverde,'s attractions.

Loved that there qas a washer and drier to use. Too bad they were out of laundry soap. They siad they would get some there right away. That ended yo the next afternoon. We were there three nights and the drier really helped, no no real worry.

The property is beautiful and has a wonderful garden and outdoor area. Our room had great view of the ocean, forests, and garden and was a big space that didn't feel cramped at all. It's easy to walk to many restaurants and stores and it is a great juming off point for seeing Monteverde or Santa Elena. Our only problem was that we didn't know that check-in was at the CPI Spanish school down the road (I don't think this was mentioned on the listing, or we missed it) so when we arrived, there was no reception and we were a bit confused, but it was sorted out without too much delay. Staff is friendly and nice.

Wow!

We super-liked Casa del Toro; located about a $3 taxi ride from Santa Elena and a $10 taxi ride from Monteverde. I think the basic area of the casa is called Cerro Plano - just past the CPI Spanish Immersion school. First of all it was clean, quiet, spacious, with good wifi and comfortable. Abigail, the young housekeeper was really helpful and welcoming. We had an apartment on the second floor and the view was amazing; you could see all the way down to the Gulf of Nicoya and watch lovely sunsets. The bedroom had a tiny balcony and all the rooms had huge windows - even the bathroom. We really appreciated the attention to detail in the design: every room had crown moldings and a tray ceiling, clean tiled floors and the bathroom walls were tiled to the ceiling. There was a bath-tub/shower which was nice with a sturdy grab bar to help you get in. The casa also has a lovely garden in front with a tiny stream and bubbling fountain. A supply of salt, pepper, oil, sugar, coffee and tea was left for us. It was about a 10 minute walk to the nearest corner store, restaurants and bakery. St. Elena was about a 25 minute fairly steep, downhill walk for bigger grocery stores. There was also a free washer and dryer in the laundry room. The only drawback for Casa del Toro was not walking anywhere at night because of the steep streets and sometimes sketchy sidewalks. You are supposed to check-in first at the CPI Spanish Immersion school which is about a 5 min. walk.

Excellent choice!

We absolutely loved our choice of hotel while staying in Monteverde! Super cute little apartment that has everything one needs to have a comfortable stay! The apartment and grounds are meticulously kept. They have a washing machine and two dryers for use, just need to bring your own laundry detergent. The only complaint is that the the water does not get very warm and so it is difficult to make use of the beautiful bathtub unless you like the water lukewarm. We were on the second floor apartment #4 and from our balcony, we had the most amazing view! You will not regret booking here! I am very particular on where I stay and I was very impressed! I would definitely recommend this apartment for your stay while in Monteverde!

Quiet, safe and perfect for children

Apartment had everything we needed. Parking is inside a locked gate. Yard was great area for children to play or for us to sit and relax. It sits on a hill with a great view. Rooms were clean. The only complaint we could think of is that there were a lot of bugs inside. This was because we chose to have all the windows open all night. If you want to avoid a large busy hotel then this is a great place.

Great apartment! Beautiful yard with a wonderful view. The only negative was not knowing we had to go to a nearby school/office to check in instead of the apartment itself.

A lot of space and nice views.

Realy enjoyed being able to spread all our stuff out and have a base for a few days. Casas del Toro is a large place with beautiful views over MonteVerde. A nice bonus is the laundry room with washer and dryer. Close proximity to town. I saw some monkeys walking to town. Only draw back is the wifi was slow, not the best for video calls. Also, getting in and out of the shower/tub was tough as the tub is high. A stool might help. Otherwise, great stay, with nice parking spot. I would return.

Great value in Monteverde

Located on the campus of CIS, this spacious home has plenty of room to spread out. Layout is strange, lots of uneven stairs not so great for anyone with mobility issues. Stunning, peaceful grounds. Good location. Great value.
