The drive from St Elena is worth it! There are lots of bugs at night but it is manageable. So many birds! So serene! Comfy beds. Yummy welcome food. Carlos was super kind and attentive, and took care of our needs (extra chair, longer clothing line for hanging our clothes). ##### Cecile Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timothy B 13 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication What a wonderful stay!! We got into Villa Golondrina after a long day of travel. The house was spotless, extremely comfortable, and there was a nice welcome package with some items for breakfast the next morning. When I woke up I was greeted by the extraordinary views of the rain forest and the valley below. The house is located about a ten minute drive from Santa Elena where there are some very nice restaurants and places to shop. It is also very well located for visiting the hiking trails into the Cloud Forest. If you happen to have a student studying abroad at CIEE Monteverde, the campus is located about 5 minutes from Villa Golondrina. If you are visiting the area, please do not hesitate to stay here. Villa Golondrina will be a great home base to see the area. ![View of house](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/07695afa-fba1-4f8c-8bcf-50461cfa8fe3-1763038412681.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Surrounding area ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c0d15317-df47-4e16-b2c2-6d35ec4bc7a6-1763038447758.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![House location from above. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3d684fa0-2e5e-49bd-9419-68b3a7397e43-1763038461275.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Timothy B Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kurk 17 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Lovely place to stay Villa Golondrina is in a lovely location, with great views. It was clean and comfortable, with modern conveniences. The hosts left a nice collection of eggs, bread, etc. Carlos was great to work with. The signage to the location once we got close to San Luis was quite good. Lots of birds in the yard, on neighborhood roads, and on the trail to the river. The one potential drawback is that it is more in San Luis than in Monte Verde, and the road can be rough. But the road was better than the one to Selvatura, and plenty of people drive there. The distance was easy to adjust to as well. I would happily stay there again if we return to the region. ##### Kurk Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Devin 26 Feb 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication The property was spotless, Carlos the property manager was a huge wealth of knowledge and so incredibly hospitable, everything about this location was absolutely amazing. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/241d2edd-1965-4e30-97ba-ce5f96cc7db8-1772071145208.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Devin Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2026 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Oxygen Jungle Villas & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Oxygen-Jungle-Villas.h6042557.Hotel-Information) > > [Natural Drake Bay Hotel Boutique](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Drake-Bay-Hotels-Natural-Drake-Bay-Boutique-Hotel.h100431716.Hotel-Information) > > [Kura Boutique Hotel Member of the Cayuga Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Kura-Boutique-Hotel.h5637504.Hotel-Information) > > [Costa Rica Surf Camp by SUPERbrand](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Costa-Rica-Surf-Camp-By-SUPERbrand.h17702230.Hotel-Information) > > [Iguana Lodge Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-Iguana-Lodge-Spa-Beach-Resort.h6882446.Hotel-Information) > > [Cabañas del Rio](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Cabanas-Del-Rio.h22951676.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hideaway Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Samara-Hotels-The-Hideaway-Hotel.h11027376.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tranquilo Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Drake-Bay-Hotels-The-Tranquilo-Lodge-All-Inclusive.h36517873.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Lapas Jungle Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Villa-Lapas-Jungle-Village.h1330482.Hotel-Information) > > [Kenaki Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cahuita-Hotels-Kenaki-Lodge.h8460922.Hotel-Information) > > [La Cusinga Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-La-Cusinga-Lodge.h9711849.Hotel-Information) > > [Tiki Villas Rainforest Lodge & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Tiki-Villas-Rainforest-Lodge-Spa.h8126251.Hotel-Information) > > [Chayote Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naranjo-Hotels-Chayote-Lodge.h9716642.Hotel-Information) > > [Cristal Ballena Boutique Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Cristal-Ballena-Boutique-Hotel-Spa.h1386896.Hotel-Information) > > [Villas Rio Mar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Villas-Rio-Mar.h66109.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Amavi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Hotel-Amavi.h103597450.Hotel-Information) > > [Makanda by the Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quepos-Hotels-Makanda-By-The-Sea.h2328562.Hotel-Information) > > [Costa Paraiso](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Costa-Paraiso.h38744058.Hotel-Information) > > [Lapa Rios Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-Lapa-Rios-Lodge.h1447895.Hotel-Information) > > [Macaw Lodge ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carara-Hotels-Macaw-Lodge-An-Authentic-Ecolodge.h6778240.Hotel-Information) > > [El Remanso Rainforest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-El-Remanso-Lodge.h11640675.Hotel-Information) > > [Monteverde Lodge by Böëna ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Monteverde-Lodge-Gardens-By-Boena.h4497846.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Sarapiqui Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sarapiqui-Hotels-La-Quinta-Sarapiqui-Lodge.h18261717.Hotel-Information) > > [Toad Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arenal-Hotels-Toad-Hall-Hotel.h11685037.Hotel-Information) > > [Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Samara-Hotels-Azura-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h20586535.Hotel-Information) > > [Ecolirios Boutique Hotel & Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Guacimo-Hotels-Ecolirios-Boutique-Hotel-And-Spa.h32864539.Hotel-Information) > > [Santa Juana Lodge and Nature Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quepos-Hotels-Santa-Juana-Lodge-And-Nature-Reserve.h10501821.Hotel-Information) > > [Hideaway Rio Celeste](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Katira-Hotels-Hotel-Rio-Celeste-Hideaway.h3858533.Hotel-Information) > > [Vista Ballena](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dominical-Hotels-Vista-Ballena.h10617842.Hotel-Information) ---
