Great cabin in a beautiful location. Definitely a rustic vibe which is good if that’s what you are looking for but may be too much for some (bugs will get into the cabin). Of course when you are staying in a forest you should expect this but seems like other reviews don’t understand this. We had an amazing time and saw lots of birds on the property and even an anteater!

I wish the view was better. Unfortunately too many bushes and trees blocked any view from porch or window. Atmosphere reminded me of the people that live there. Nice to feel the culture and not just stay in an American style hotel

We loved staying in the woods with nature surrounding us. The cabin is rustic, but had a wonderful view, hammock, and repurposed wood throughout. The host was wonderful and gave us a great night tour on our first night!

We love this location! Simple but functional space on a nice property with trails. We saw over 60 species of birds on the trails on the property while staying, as well as monkeys, coatis, possums, etc. Great spot for people that want a quiet space in the woods, and only a few minutes drive from Santa Elena/Monteverde.

If you’re looking for an authentic Costa Rican experience, Casa la Paz is the place to stay. The hosts were extremely responsive. The place was really clean, and beautiful. They even leave some organic coffee to try out! If you’re looking for an incredible experience , go ahead and book Casa la Paz!

Peaceful jungle retreat

We absolutely loved it here. Beautiful view in a tucked away jungle setting. It's a bit rustic but thats part of the charm in my opinion. I would stay here again!

Great Remote Cabin in the Jungle

The cabin was great! I was very clean and very cozy, the views however, are not quite as they’re pictured due to the growth of the vegetation but they are still great!

Worst place I’ve ever stayed. It was very hard to find and the shower has exposed electrical wires. We stayed one night and wanted a refund for the second night due to the shower safety issue which could result in death. They didn’t grant this.

This house is rustic, yes, but there is no danger of death and no exposed, uninsulated wiring. This review is quite misleading, at the least. The heating system for the shower is an on-demand shower head; while some parts of the installation are visible, including insulated wires, they are properly protected—much like the wiring that powers a television—and do not pose a danger. Our system has been operating for more than 10 years, and our handyman has double-checked it. This system is commonly used in many areas of the country. While the house is rustic, it is surrounded by nature and is gorgeously quiet; it is a place for guests who focus on nature rather than luxury.

Very rustic, very awesome!

This secluded, well-supplied cabin was such a special way to experience the cloud forest. The monkeys literally cruised by right outside the window!

Magical Sunsets

The rustic experience was not short of breathtaking views of the sunsets! The bathtub was a nice touch and the beds were way more comfortable then expected. It has all cookware we needed and the trails around the property were fun to explore. Super close to Mt Verde made it easily accessible for our cloud Forest adventure.

The property was very rustic but we loved it! It was the perfect spot for our family just outside of the Monteverde area. The driveway is very steep so they are not kidding when they say you need a vehicle that can handle it. Our kids loved watching all the leaf cutter ants around the property and hiking some of the trails. The sunset was beautiful. Our first night the wind was very strong but the second night it was much more calm. We saw a gecko and a different kind of lizard on the back patio. It was also very nice to be able to do laundry. If you are up for an adventure I would recommend staying here :)

Right on the edge of forest… with howlers and a toucan. A bit rough or rustic, but fun. Very quiet and fairly close to Monteverde.

It's in a beautiful location but it's very rustic. It's basically a cottage or cabin in the woods. They need to add or turn on more solar lights outside because it's down a hill and it's pitch dark at night time so it's not easy to access.

Quiet hideaway

Casa la Paz is a quiet and rustic hideaway. Don't expect luxury, but do expect lots of birds, hidden trails and a great location. It has a steep driveway, you'll need a 4x4 to reach the house. It's about 15-20 min drive from the centre of Santa Elena and the entrance to most bosque nobuso Monteverde activities.

Adorable place

We loved our stay in this cozy cabin. The location was stunning although I would not recommend for someone with mobility issues as the walk up/down is steep but there are stairs. The place is rustic and there were some bugs, after all it is literally in the jungle. I thought it was charming. It is the rainy season so the trees grow quickly and thus the view was obstructed. The property manager was very attentive and answered all of our questions. Would stay here again, no doubt.
