Monteverde
Cloud Forest Lodge
Loated
high on the ridge above the coastal plain, near the town of Santa Elena,
the adjacent farming colony and cloud forest reserve of Monteverde
Monteverde
Cloud Forest Lodge is a true mountain hotel but is only minutes away
from everything in the zone, including the orchid gardens, the butterfly
garden, the Ecological Farm and of course the Monteverde
biological reserve.
Monteverde
Cloud Forest Lodge is in a quiet & secluded location, surrounded
by cloud forest, and offers 18 separate cabins, each with a private
porch. Each cabin also has a private bathroom and hot water. This Costa
Rican hotel has 70 acres of private property containing primary and
secondary forest, and miles of private trails where you can find more
than 180 species of birds. Read a book, take
a deep breath of fresh cloud forest air, and watch for colorful birds
and the abundant wild life only a few steps away from your cabin.
The
Monteverde Cloud Forest Lodge has a Bar & Restaurant Overlooking
the Cloud Forest and the Gulf of Nicoya. Every meal is prepared by our
local cooks using only natural ingredients and condiments. Bread is
baked every day and our granola and fruit jam is the best in Monteverde.
Fresh dairy products, rice and beans, tortillas and local fruit are
part of our balanced died, together with choices of beef, chicken, fish
and pasta. Box lunches are available.

A
cloud forest is a highland forest characterized by nearly 100% humidity
throughout the year. Here in Monteverde, warm North-Easterly trade winds,
filled with moisture, blow in over the Atlantic. As the winds sweep
up to the Continental divide, they cool and condense to form clouds,
bathing the forest in a constant soft mist.
