Great stay
Comfortable stay in Monteverde. Beds were comfortable and the room was clean. Free breakfast was delicious. Close to town, walkable to restaurants. There is a cute little park with a mini Zipline across the street the kids enjoyed. The hot tub was great. Would have been nice if the pool was heated (it was freezing).

Great location to shops and restaurants. No AC in the rooms and our room didn’t have a fan. Also, very loud property - could hear every vehicle drive by, especially with having to have windows open because room was warm.

The road from La Fortuna to Monteverde is an adventure in and if itself! Very drivable but bumpy! The cloudforest sits atop the mountains! Poco a Poco has beautiful rooms on beautiful property. We walked the paths on site with flowers, forestry, and butterflies! We had a wonderful relaxing massage at the Spa. I would definitely recommend!

The restaurant was excellent because they used fresh ingredients that they grew in a garden. Excellent free sit-down breakfast. All the food tasted amazing. The staff is super friendly and ready to help with anything (e.g. tours rearrangement, transport arrangements etc.) Super eco friendly too! Great location in the town. We would highly recommend this hotel.

Our stay at the hotel Poco a Poco was an incredibly positive experience. From the very beginning, the staff was very friendly and welcoming. The hotel was exceptionally clean, which added to our comfort. My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time thanks to the attentive service. The staff arranged cars for us and booked our tours, making our stay hassle-free. The food in the restaurant was top-notch, offering a wide variety of delicious dishes. The selection of cocktails was impressive, and we enjoyed trying different ones each evening. The surrounding nature was beautiful, providing a serene backdrop to our stay. The pool was clean and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax. Overall, we had an amazing experience and highly recommend this hotel.

Beautiful, faciltiy. We stayed in the Forest Deluxe room which was larger and a bit further back from the road. The grounds are well maintained, the breakfast service was great and the staff was friendly. Just across the street are some decent restaurants and a grocery store. It's a short 2-3 block walk to the town square.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay here. It was a beautiful property with a nice path through their gardens and some wilderness, that was home to a variety of singing birds. They have a fire pit with marshmallows our kids enjoyed roasting. Service was spectacular and every worked was very friendly. Breakfast was yummy too. It’s just a couple minute walk to a nice grocery store (to fill up the fridge they give you for the room), many restaurants, and a bakery if your heart desires. We would definitely come back.

Great Location
Great location and very nice resort/spa. All the Staff were great and very accommodating to requests. One thing to note is that there is no air conditioning in the rooms which was not an issue since temperatures were cool except that your wet clothing (it rained a lot when I was there) would not dry out. It was an easy walk to many shops, restuarants, etc. Biggest negative was that the hot tub was not hot and the jets were not working some of the time.
