Absolutely loved this place

We absolutely loved this place! All of the windows make you feel so connected with the beautiful nature outside. We enjoyed waking up in the mornings and seeing/listening to the birds. There was a nearby tree on the property with several nests of Montezuma Oropendolas which was a highlight of our stay. The space was clean and comfortable and our host Oscar was so friendly and kind. We hope to return on day if we revisit the area. Gracias Oscar!

Great spot in Monteverde

Such a great, quiet spot outside Monteverde with nice touches for its guests. Recommend a high clearance vehicle to get around the area to explore all it has to offer!

Once a lifetime location and view

Although it is a bit challenging (for an average American) to get to the property via winding road (partly gravel and partly one lane), the view and location are stunning. The feeling of being in a middle of the forest with mountains and a stream running at the bottom of the valley, symphony of birds and moving leaves and cicadas. It all comes with panoramic views out of all living areas and bedrooms and all modern conveniences. Bathrooms and showers are nice and WiFi works well. Would recommend a 4x4 car to get there.We all loved it and would want to return.

Could not be better

This is our second stay at Casa Mia. We love the setting and the house fits us perfectly. From our balcony we could see lots and lots of birds, even a troupe of monkeys came through to entertain us. Oscar and his wife are great hosts. Fresh flowers in the house! Fresh eggs and a loaf of bread were enough for two breakfasts for the four of us. Comfy beds. Can’t ask for more! We’ll be back again.

Very very special place to stay

My wife and two teenage girls had a wonderful time at this special place. The house was well-outfitted, and there was space for all of us. The location cant be beat. You really feel like you're somewhere special and out of the way, but the drive into town and around to attractions was easy.

Costa Rica wildlife vacation

Comfortable, fun house with an absolutely incredible view of the forest. The porches are perfect rain or shine and the extended yard down the trail is great for observing birds and butterflies. Felt immersed in the countryside. Close enough to town that going out is relatively quick and easy. Road into the house was in good shape.

2 days in Monteverde

Great location and very nice house in the cloud forest. Great host, very quick to respond to our inquiries. Of all the place we stayed in Costa Rica, this was easily our favorite. We would have stayed more than 2 days if we would have known!

Wonderful Guest House

Great location if you don’t mind the 10 minute drive into Santa Elena. So peaceful and many hummingbirds and butterflies in the beautiful gardens. The house had everything you needed and it was clean and comfortable. A perfect 3 day holiday in the mountains.

Our stay was amazing. The property is wonderful. Every morning we sat on the deck with coffee and watched the hummingbirds feasting on the flowers on the bank just below us. I can’t recommend Casa Mia enough.

Great stay in the cloud forest

Amazing property in a great location. Very convenient to Santa Elena and the best Monteverde attractions including Sky Adventures and Selvatura parks. The on-site hiking trails were an amazing bonus and fun for the whole family. Oscar is a friendly and very responsive host. Highly recommend Casa Mia.
