Great cabin in the jungle

This house was great for a laid back hangout for our family while in Monteverde. In the jungle and very close to Monteverde Cloud Forest entrance. The house had everything we needed to make meals and plenty of space for the 4 of us to spread out and relax.

Beautiful home in the forest

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Ira Rosa in Monteverde. It is close enough to walk to the cloud forest preserve, but be sure to head down to the parking area below the house location to obtain your entrance tickets first! The home is cozy and spacious enofor a a family and has a decent kitchen to prepare your own meals. We loved it!

Perfect little place in the mountains.

We really enjoyed our stay. Felt tucked right into the cloud forest. Was so nice being able to just walk up the hill to explore the Monteverde park. The fresh banana bread was such a treat. Would stay here again for sure.

Cozy cabin!

Our family of 2 adults and 2 teens loved this cabin. There were plenty of warm blankets and we enjoyed lighting a fire during the cooler evenings. It was so cozy that our teens wanted to return to the cabin just to relax when we had free time. The location was perfect with a short walk to the Cloud Forest.

2 nights was not enough

This place was amazing - very well appointed, very comfortable, all the amenities, and located very close to the park and downtown. Hosts were clear and responsive, check in was easy, the WiFi worked great - it looked just like the pictures and felt like you were deep in the forest. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Absolute jewel

A stone's throw from the park. Easy access to the town. Fantastic cottage with ample space. The roads around Monteverde are terrible but if you rent a 4 x 4, you'll be fine.

Cabin in the rain forest

The location of this place was phenomenal. Just a short walk away from the entrance to the Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Preserve. So many windows made you feel like you were really part of the forest. Homemade banana bread from the host was a very nice touch. The only downside was the musty smell.

Great location, comfortable

The house is large, clean and very comfortable. It is located right next to the entrance to the Cloud Forest reserve, which was our focus of visiting. The only drawback of this property is the under equipped kitchen.

Very comfortable and cute place in a perfect location!

This place was perfect for my husband and I while visiting Curicancha Reserve and Monteverde Cloud Forest. There are 3 bedrooms so there was plenty of space. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals there. The place was clean, well-supplied, and very cute. We sipped our morning coffee on the enclosed porch.My only regret is that we didn't figure out the washer situation until it was too late to line dry our clothes. My pre-stay message to the host went unanswered. Not sure why given other reviews. Overall, it was an excellent stay.reaching out again. our last day, and iI

A cabin in the forest.

We loved how close walking distance it was to the entrance to Monteverde Cloud Forest so you could avoid the hassle of trying to park. We appreciated the hosts suggestion on where to shop and dining options. Our stay was very clean, cozy and full of nighttime bird song - which lulled you to sleep. Would recommend the stay to anyone.

Our stay at Casa Ira Rosa

The directions were perfect, we had no issues finding the home. What a wonderful experience! We arrived and there was delicious warm banana bread waiting for us! The home was clean, and comfortable. It felt like we were staying in a tree house which is exactly what we wanted. 10 min walk to Cafe Colibri and the Cloud Forest. We would definitely stay again!

My husband and I stayed 4 nights at Casa Ira Rosa and loved it! Warm banana bread was waiting for us. Lots of room! It would be ideal for families or two couples. A bit far from town, but walkable to Monteverde Reserve, Curi Cancha, and Whole Foods market. Town was a short drive.

Cabin in the clouds

A lovely cabin-house. Everything was as described. Bring warm clothes, it can be just a touch cool and damp at this elevation. The woodwork in the house is beautiful and so are the grounds. Walking distance from the preserve, a short drive to other amenities and attractions. Loved our stay.

Walking Distance to Monte Verde

Great location for our family of four. We were able to walk twice to the national park for a night hike, and a day hike. Easy and fun. The house is spacious and worked well for two teenagers. The welcome banana bread was delicious and a nice perk. Highly suggest this location if you are about seeing nature.
