Great service and the room is spacious! But we could hear the guy in the room next to us snoring all night and in the morning clearly hearing the conversations in that room. The breakfast is fine with options.

The location is gorgeous, you feel like you’re right in the middle of the rainforest! The staff at Jaguarundi are extremely helpful. Maria was wonderful at booking activities and communicating with us before we arrived and Arlet was amazing at providing helpful information and suggestions of things to do not only in Monteverde but also other areas of Costa Rica we were travelling to. Both are a great asset to the hotel. The breakfast is at the sister hotel a short 3mins walk away, and there is a good selection of food. In regards to the room, it is clean and the bathroom has a good shower. The only downside is the walls are extremely thin and we were able to hear every single sound and movement of the neighbours on both sides all throughout the night and in the early hours of the morning. This meant we slept quite badly during our stay. If there was a way to soundproof the rooms, this would be the perfect stay!

I wish they had more storage/shelf space in the room. But it’s a boutique hotel and they usually don’t. I had a great stay here. It is close and walkable distance to whatever action is in the town.

If you're looking for a place where you feel you are part of the jungle, this is it! The rooms are simple and cozy. There's no AC but was not needed as it got cooler at night. We saw wildlife every day, it was great. Breakfast was included and delicious. It was a wonderful stay!

Staff is amazing, room was clean and the breakfast/dinner restaurant has an amazing view of the Monteverde area, with a beautiful sunset. Go there early to enjoy the 2 for 1 drinks while you catch the sunset. If you're in lodges 31 and 32, you're in your own jungle, so while it is quiet during the day, be warned of Coatis playing on the roofs early morning and at night.

Room was clean and staff very helpful. The breakfast at the Fiscus hotel was very good . The area around the hotel is really neat - right in the forest . Felt like a cabin. Our only complaint would be the poor lighting in the room. Perhaps LED lights would brighten the room.

Immersive Jungle Experience

This lodge isn’t for everyone, but for those whom it is well suited to it offers a wonderfully immersive rainforest experience. Our room was spacious and fairly comfortable and we felt very much like we were alone in the jungle while hotel and other amenities were very readily accessible. My only caution is that those with mobility issues could find accessing some of the rooms very challenging due to steep walkways that must be climbed to reach some cabins. There are several on the same level as the lobby/reception area, so if you aren’t comfortable with a pretty tough climb on sketchy sidewalks, in the dark, be sure to specify that. If you are able and a bit more intrepid, definitely go for the “full jungle experience”! All my attached photos were taken on the lodge grounds
