Clean, large room. Friendly staff helped to book outings and transportation. No A/C which I was worried about but did not need due to cooler nighttime temperatures.
Excellent breakfast.
We really enjoyed our large private patio.
Most outstanding grounds, hidden from main road, flowers and plants everywhere.
Easy walk into Santa Elena.
This was a simple hotel with everything we needed and good proximity to all the shopping. My favorite soda in CR is across the street, its a must try. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay here again.
Monteverde was enjoyable and the hotel was within distance of shops and restaurants, and the staff were quite pleasant & helpful. The room was well maintained and spacious, and I look forward to returning.
Wonderful hotel with lovely grounds and very friendly staff. Room was big and clean, with huge hot tub. The gardens are amazing, with so many birds and even a sloth.
Great location as it was an easy walk into the centre of town with restaurants and shopping, quick drive to hanging bridges and ziplining in the cloud forest.
Big and clean rooms, private covered porch for each to watch and listen to the wildlife. Small quiet restaurant for breakfast. Great spot!
It was a nice 2 nite stay. We saw a toucan in their garden. The place has lots or greenery and foliage which makes it more relaxing. Breakfast was a bonus.
Nice place with lots of trees to watch birds and some smaller animals. Near the main shopping area of Santa Elena where there are a lot of restaurants and stores. Friendly and helpful staff!
The reception staff was very helpful, client oriented and friendly. She helped with tour booking and went out of her way delivering takeout to our room. Totally appreciated.
We enjoyed our stay and the local wildlife. The hotel is in a good location, within walking distance to a bar and restaurant. The room has an exterior entrance for privacy, was large and had a mini fridge, which is appreciated. Coffee is only available in the main communal area, which is a bit inconvenient but at least it’s available.
The breakfast was plentiful and delicious!
Hotel Claro de Luna was a lovely place to stay to be close to the cloud forest reserves. Walking distance to the shops and restaurants of Santa Elena. Beautiful Spanish style units with private patios. The staff are immediately responsive to any needs or questions. Extensive complementary breakfast buffet and my favourite thing... the 24 hour coffee station! Highly recommend!
The service and location were great. The staff was very nice and friendly, and were so helpful with suggestions on tours and restaurants. You can walk (5 minutes) to plenty of restaurants in main town of Santa Elena. For animal enthusiasts like us it was great, we saw plenty of beautiful birds on property and we even saw a sloth on hotel property on the first day of visit. We will definitely be back to this property.
Welcoming Friendly Staff.
Quite location, lots of flowers, birds chirping. They had a sloth in living in their yard. Which we got to see all the days we were there. Breakfast was good. Loved the home made jam.
Overall, was a pretty cozy place to stay.
(Bed was pretty firm, but that’s a personal matter )
Gorgeous grounds, felt like an oasis. Jennie prepared a delicious breakfast each morning, including a great homemade salsa and homemade marmalade. She also pointed out a sloth (perezoso) sleeping in a tree outside. Josephine was kind enough to help me book a night tour and to find a kayak tour in another city . Highly recommend.
Great location. Beautiful garden. Simple clean room. Quick and easy checkin . Beautiful dining room with simple breakfast.
The bed was not very comfortable. It was wooden and old.
Made squeak noise with ourevery move! We had comfortable in another room they said the same thing about their bed!
We arrived early and were accommodated for a check in without any problems. The gardens and property was VERY well maintained and beautiful. There were so many birds, butterflies and flowers to enjoy. We even saw a sloth in the trees by the parking lot! The room was spacious and very clean. The shower had hot water and great pressure. I loved the morning breakfast with coffee. My only wish was coffee maker in the room not just tea/hot water. But coffee was always available if wanted. The front desk had excellent recommendations for excursions and restaurants. We had no car so they also helped with taxi when needed.
