<h2>Enjoy a Cabin in the Cloud Forest</h2>The Cloud Forest Lodge is right outside the village of Santa Elena, close to the <a href="https://www.vacationscostarica.com/things-to-do/cloud-forest-hike/">Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve</a>. Monteverde is one of Costa Rica's original eco-tourism hot spots, and one of the most well-known. If you want to lose yourself in nature, this is a great place to do it.This 25-room boutique eco-lodge sits far enough outside of the village to feel remote and surrounded by nature, while close enough for guests to enjoy the restaurants and atmosphere of Santa Elena. Being surrounded by nature is even easier in this hotel because Cloud Forest Lodge sits on its own private cloud forest reserve of 23 hectares. Fun fact: it is also home to Costa Rica's original cloud forest canopy tour!Each of the rooms comes in a cabin style. They're wooden rustic on the outside and clean and modern inside. All the cabins come with expansive terraces to relax and enjoy the sounds of the forest. Each cabin has a variation of bed combinations (kings, queens, twins) to suit different group dynamics and offer other amenities to make the stay even more comfortable. A/C is not needed in Monteverde, and at this hotel, neither are fans. So rooms don't have any.<h2>Indoor and Outdoor Amenities</h2>The on-site Endémica Restaurant offers a wonderful dining experience in Monteverde. The chefs use organic, locally-sourced ingredients to create healthy dishes with a flair. Although not a vegetarian restaurant, Endémica prides itself on its plant-based dishes.Guests seeking other restaurant options nearby can go into Santa Elena, the main tourism center for Monteverde. Find plenty of eating and drinking options here after a day exploring nature.Due to the cooler climate in Monteverde, the Cloud Forest Lodge does not have a swimming pool. However, the hotel has a sister property close by in Santa Elena. The <a href="https://www.vacationscostarica.com/monteverde/stay/monteverde-lodge/">Monteverde Lodge &amp; Gardens</a> has a solar-heated pool that guests from the Cloud Forest Lodge are welcome to use.<h2>A Paradise for Nature Lovers</h2>Speaking of nature, that's why travelers choose this location in the first place. The hotel's own private reserve is perfect for <a href="https://www.vacationscostarica.com/things-to-do/hiking/">hiking</a> and <a href="https://www.vacationscostarica.com/things-to-do/birdwatching/">birdwatching</a>. There's also the original canopy tour right here. This is the <a href="https://www.vacationscostarica.com/things-to-do/canopy-zipline/">zip-lining experience</a> that Costa Rica is famous for, in the area where it was invented. It's easy to access Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, the Children's Rainforest, and other natural attractions from this hotel as well.A stay at the Cloud Forest Lodge allows guests to enjoy all this natural beauty from a place of comfort.

Perfectly executed 10 days of fun! Emilie helped us coordinate the trip and the execution was flawless. The activities were perfect for our family. Our experience in Costa Rica was made amazing because of Costa Rican Vacations and Emilie!

Eloise Moodie - Emilie Witham

Monteverde - This is the best ziplining, really high and really long! Extremely safe and professional staff. This area is also the premier coffee spot due to altitude... We loved Monteverde most, as it was less tourist oriented, had smaller town vibes, a sort of lovely familiarity about it.

Roxanne Birx Vandermeulen - Monteverde

In Monteverde, we got to see Resplendent Quetzals building a nest in the Santa Elena cloud forest, and we had an amazing night tour of the Monteverde cloud forest... We saw SO much wildlife. Truly an unforgettable trip.
