Sustainability & Local Impact We are deeply committed to conservation and sustainable living. Over the past five years, we’ve planted more than 600 native trees and plants on the property and donate a portion of each stay to local climate action efforts through CorClima.
Guests are welcome to explore the shared yard, which features native plantings, fruit trees, a coffee field, and a newly added walking path.
Tap water is potable—there’s no need to purchase bottled water. We also encourage thoughtful water and energy use as part of our eco-conscious approach.
A Few Helpful Notes
-Please keep windows and doors closed when away, as monkeys have been known to sneak inside.
- Insects are a normal part of forest life here. They’re harmless and play an important role in the local ecosystem. During dry season, we recommend you use repellent as there are tiny mites (in leaf litter) that, although harmless, cause a mighty itch. We also recommend you shower after hikes.
-A house manual is provided with directions, WiFi codes, and local recommendations.

Beautiful nest in the trees!
This property was exactly as described and shown in photos. Lovely space indoors with capuchins, toucans, pizzotes, and agoutis seen outdoors from back balcony and front porch. Location is a short walk from a small commercial area that is very quiet after 6:00 PM. The hosts have a helpful information binder and also texted about a musical event.

Birders' first time in Monteverde
Fig Tree #3 was the PERFECT spot for our birding vacation in Costa Rica. Easily walk to Curi Cancha and a 5 minute drive to Monte Verde Biological Reserve. We enjoyed the toucanet and capuchins who were daily visitors outside our windows. Highly recommend.
The property was in an excellent location, close to shops but also very close to the Cloud Forest. The property was adequately equipped for home cooking and it had a lovely patio where we could watch the monkeys that would come by occasionally.

Comfortable stay with wonderful balcony and views!
Great location and close to a couple nice restaurants and bakery. Nice to have washer and dryer as an option even though there was a limit to 1 load during our stay. Checkin was simple and clear. The condo was nicely decorated with adequate kitchen amenities provided for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed our time here and felt the price was very reasonable. We loved trying out the traditional coffee maker with the coffee that was provided as well!

Petit mais correct
Attention à l’arbre mort à la sortie de la clôture d’entrée. Il est situé dans les airs et nous avons cassé la vitre arrière de notre voiture. Erreur du conducteur mais il devrait être enlevé
