We saw mot-mots and wild turkeys on the driveway!Raul was extremely helpful, easy to communicate with, and cheerful even when we arrived in the rain after dark. The house is very secure and the wi-fi's solid. Great to have the convenience of a washer/dryer!It's got a full kitchen, big fridge, stove/oven, and everything you'd need for a home stay. That said, it's a property for a certain clientele. It's not fancy, the driveway requires 4-wheel drive, there's no heat, and it's driving distance from all of Santa Elena/Monteverde's shops, restaurants and attractions.If you're looking for a simple, quiet, nature-focused stay, this is it! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9a5d4ac6-7066-424f-bce4-ec2d1c4f7cc2-1770672738760.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e25def42-6392-4cd5-98cb-34f483b5c719-1770672739825.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b5dcc7a0-3444-4ff4-9888-b9f562aa211b-1770672743744.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jennifer W.
