"If I ever make it back to Santa Elena, I will definitely be staying at Miztli Lodge again. It's a well-run small business, and Jasser was very helpful in recommending and helping to arrange activities."

"I don’t recommend this hotel. Our room had zero ventilation so it got very hot and stuffy at night. There was no fan or ac so it was hard to sleep. There was zero housekeeping and when I needed items like toilet paper or a towel I had to find someone at the front desk - most of the time staff was no where to be found and the front desk was unattended. The hot water in the shower cut off halfway through my shower twice. The most upsetting thing was that we booked this hotel based on the fact it...

The hotel is ideally located with a spectacular view. It is close to the nature preserve, restaurants, markets. The lobby, sitting area, terraces, and rooms are large and airy. The breakfast was outstanding. The grounds are extensive and had lots of exotic birds to watch. I enjoyed the hotel and will come back to stay again with my family.

Spacious clean room, no mini refrigerator in room but offer one that was shared by the guest .
Even suggested to go to the hotel across ours to purchase dinner

Recently hopped around Costa Rica staying at 7 hotels/hostels. I am talking about premium beach front hotels here and Pensión Santa Elena was decidedly our favorite. Not only was it an extremely affordable room but the service was unbeatable.
It is a hostel, so expect a diy wash-your-own-mug type feel. However, I think any sort of traveler would feel welcome and comfortable here.
This review is in no way biased by the taco stand that shares a roof with the pension. It is simply the...

My family's stay at Nafre House over the winter holiday was wonderful. The bed and breakfast is a perfect location for anyone visiting the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve and the surrounding area, the rooms were spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean, and the staff were unfailingly gracious and helpful, in both English and our attempts at Spanish. They even brought us a New Year's Eve gift. We would recommend Nafre House to anyone visiting this beautiful area.

No AC, not needed, well ventilated, big ceiling fan. HUGE room, saw several parrots and other beautiful tropical birds out of the window. Fantastic staff, they were able to help us clean our laundry for a very low price. Great food! Perfect for families-gorgeous little find in the mountains for the price. Very worth it.

The grounds at the hotel are amazing. The tropical gardens that surround the guest rooms, paths, and pool make for a very relaxing stay. The rooms are spaced well apart and have a lot if privacy from the covered verandas. The views are incredible. The location is perfect for exploring and taking advantage of the many activities in the area.

We loved this little place. The owner was so friendly and helpful. The view was amazing! Our only regret was that we should have stayed another night! lol And the sunset was breathtaking!

Paradise. If you’re considering booking this hotel, do it, you won’t be disappointed!
So much attention to detail throughout the entire property. I must have said ‘it’s just so pretty’ HUNDREDS of times. Lol.
Staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. The property is gated, so you have a keycard to get back in.
My husband can’t go to sleep without white noise, but you literally hear the river and birds (while being bug free and having great air conditioning) and this is the first time he’s been...

The view from the hotel is incomparable! You can have a very nice breakfast (free) surronded by a breatiful garden while the volcano is right in front of you! There is also a rose garden in the backyard of the hotel. Although it's named as garden, it is really an epitome of larger rain forest! Very nice!!!!! A lot of humming birds! The room is very nice to stay as well! wonderful wonderful experience at decent price!!!!!!!!

The cabins are quite basic, but the setting more than makes up for it—beautiful views and a peaceful location. Ronny is an excellent host and very welcoming.
