Each of the 28 rooms has either a garden or forest view and feels ultra-cozy, with warm lighting and a cozy, comfortable vibe. All rooms come with a small terrace or balcony and have either a king-size bed or two full-size beds. 

Other amenities include WiFi, a fan, a safe, bathrobes, and extra blankets for those chilly Monteverde nights. A/C is not needed in Monteverde. The hotel also operates a policy of not having TVs so that guests can fully appreciate the natural sounds of the forests and gardens while in residence.

Monteverde Lodge & Gardens is one of the few hotels of its size in the Monteverde area to have a swimming pool. Many other places don't because of the cooler climate in this part of Costa Rica. The pool here is solar heated and feels perfect for dipping into and relaxing after a day exploring the cloud forests.

The main reason to visit Monteverde is to experience the natural beauty of the Costa Rican cloud forests. Monteverde Lodge & Gardens sits on its small reserve and also offers access to numerous guided hikes and tours for nature lovers.

Guests hiking the cloud forests of Monteverde can see all sorts of wildlife, including the resplendent quetzal that lives in these parts. Monteverde is also home to more types of orchids than anywhere else in the world.

Monteverde Lodge & Gardens, the small restaurant, offers a range of healthy food options locally sourced or grown in the hotel's greenhouses. The El Jardin Restaurant takes particular pride in its own vegetarian "menu within a menu."

For guests seeking to try other places to eat, the nearby village of Santa Elena offers several other restaurants and bars, stores, and markets.
