Mariposa/Amistad Apt. Accommodation - Apartments for Rent in Monte Verde, Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Very nice little place, very bright, very pleasant. Esteban is very welcoming, and helpful. Well-equipped kitchen, we spent two nights, it was very nice 😊 I highly recommend it. 👍🏻

Très beau petit logement, très lumineux, très agréable. Esteban est très accueillant, et serviable. Cuisine bien équipée, nous avons passé deux nuits, c’était très sympa 😊 Je recommande vivement 👍🏻

The AirBnB is beautiful, a cabin that makes you feel immersed in the woods, spacious and cozy. The location is optimal and Esteban was super friendly, always responding on time. One felt at home.

El AirBnB es precioso, una cabaña que te hace sentir inmersa en el bosque, amplia y acogedora. La ubicación es óptima y Esteban fue súper amable, siempre respondiendo a tiempo. Una se sentía en casa.

Estaban was a very helpful host. The accommodation was amazing & very close to the Cloud Forest Reserve. I highly recommend using this property for your stay in Monteverde.

Esteban’s place was so clean and he was very welcoming. The grounds are beautiful. You can tell he and his wife take much pride and care of the entire property, which seems to include 3 separate apartments. He is available at a reception area from 6:30am-9:30pm, very long hours but reflective of his dedication. We asked about laundry service and he suggested several options, but they offer it for $10/load, which was well worth it to us since we arrived with wet clothes from our prior stop. There were plenty of warm blankets on the bed for the cooler nights. Overall it was a great stay.

Neatly neat house. Very large. I really liked the price-quality ratio. We were very close to the entrance of the park  we had an early tour and we didn't have to drive from home very early because we only had to drive a little bit to the park. I do recommend a 4*4 car. We had 2*4 and missed a 4*4. Monteverde itself is a very nice village. A bit touristy, but after seeing many other not touristy places in Costa Rica at all, I liked that for a while. House was large and has a strikingly beautiful light during the day. We were very satisfied. Also nice was the laundry service that was provided. As a result, we didn't have to go all the way to the village with the laundry. There is a good, large oven in the apartment and a good gas stove so you can cook in the house yourself.

Keurig nette woning. Heel groot. Ik vond de prijs-kwaliteit verhouding echt goed. We zaten heel dichtbij de ingang van het park  we hadden een vroege tour en we hoefden dus niet heel vroeg van huis omdat we maar een klein stukje naar het park hoefden te rijden. Ik raad wel een 4*4 auto aan. Wij hadden 2*4 en hebben een 4*4 gemist. Monteverde zelf is een erg leuk dorpje. Beetje toeristisch maar na veel andere helemaal niet toeristische plekken gezien te hebben in Costa Rica vond ik dat juist wel even fijn. Huis was groot en heeft een opvallend mooie lichtinval overdag. We waren zeer tevreden. Ook fijn was de was service die er geboden werd. We hoefden daardoor niet helemaal naar het dorp met de was. Er zit een goede, grote oven in het appartement en een goed gasfornuis dus je kan goed zelf in het huis koken.

The apartment is very spacious and extremely clean. Check-in was straightforward. Very good location by car to Santa Elena and on foot to the cloud. The highlight was the many monkeys on our terrace.

Das Appartement ist sehr geräumig und ausgesprochen sauber. Check in war unkompliziert. Sehr gute Lage mit dem Auto nach Santa Elena und zu Fuß in den Nebelwald. Das Highlight waren die vielen Affen auf unserer Terrasse.

Very good place, excellent host, ideal for families!

Muy buen lugar, excelente anfitrión, ideal para familias!

beautiful apartment with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, living room, kitchen and laundry area.. parking in front of the house. They made the beds and changed the towels. Surrounded by the forest...upon waking up the cappuccine monkeys were on our balcony! Very close to the park and the village (restaurants, chocolate sale, etc.). Great value for money. Ultra recommended!

bellissimo appartamentino con due camere, due bagni, living, cucina e zona lavanderia.. parcheggio davanti a casa. hanno rifatto i letti e cambiato gli asciugamani.  circondati dalla foresta...al risveglio le scimmie cappuccine erano sul nostro balcone! vicinissimo al parco e al paese (ristoranti, vendita cioccolato etc). ottimo rapporto qualitá prezzo. ultra consigliato!

very responsive and super nice hosts 🙂

hôtes très réactifs et super simpa 🙂

We felt very comfortable in the apartment Ideal for 4 people as each bedroom has its own bathroom. The kitchen was well equipped. The Cloudforest in Monteverde is within a 20-minute walk of the property.

Wir habe uns in der Wohnung sehr wohl gefühlt. Ideal für 4 Personen, da jedes Schlafzimmer ein eigenes Bad hat. Die Küche war gut ausgestattet. Der Cloudforest in Monteverde ist von der Unterkunft innerhalb von 20 Minuten sehr gut zu Fuß zu erreichen.

This was the PERFECT one night stop to tour the Cloud Forest. We stayed here between La Fortuna and Dominical. It is close the the Cloud Forest and peaceful. Esteban was incredibly kind and easy to communicate with. You just can’t beat the value for the location and cleanliness.

We had a lovely stay at Eteban's place. The space was clean, functional, and communication with Esteban was very good. We recommend 100%.

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans le logement proposé par Eteban. Le logement était propre, fonctionnel et la communication avec Esteban très bonne. Nous recommandons à 100 %.

Very clean and well-equipped accommodation. Excellent geographical location. Esteban is very cordial, present on the premises to welcome you.

Logement très propre et bien équipé. Situation géographique excellente. Esteban est très cordial, présent sur les lieux pour vous accueillir.

Esteban was a gracious host, very kind and helpful. The place was very spacious, very clean, surrounded by lush trees that the birds were flying around in. Kitchen amenities were basic but good. The housekeeping service (beds made, bathrooms cleaned, fresh towels) was a pleasant unexpected surprise!  It was a bit out of town, so a car was necessary but it didn’t take long to get there. It was only a few minutes away from the Monteverde Cloud Forest Preserve. Overall a wonderful stay and we would definitely return.

Really helpful, informative host. Great location for exploring Monteverde Cloud Forest and local area. Peaceful surroundings. Spacious, well-equipped space.

Wonderful stay, clean, roomy. Esteban provided so much help in finding our way around and helping us with tours and activities.

An humble hidden gem to discover the beauty of Monteverde.

Esteban was really helpful and welcoming. Place is super clean and sooo beautiful! I definitely recommend.

The perfect location! The bright skylights and large windows bring in so much light and give the best views of the cloud forest. Extremely clean and comfortable. The host Esteban is amazing, makes you feel so right at home. Highly recommend, it’s a beautiful large space that will make your trip so special.

This is a lovely cottage up in the Cloud Forest, with all you need, especially for a family with a master bedroom and one for the kids. It is quiet and has lots of light - skylights - with a balcony. It is like a boutique hotel with separate cottages. And breakfast - as well as dinner if you like - across the street at a splendid resort. The family is very cordial for check in and whatever your needs. Bring warm clothes if you’re here in winter; its 1-2000 feet up in the rainforest. Highly recommend.

Spectacular views and near all interesting places. Beautiful town.

Beautiful place with gorgeous views all the way around.  Excellent service.  Close to cloud preserve, great restaurants.  Very quiet area as well.  Esteban was friendly and helpful with recommendations for food and activities.  Wish we could have stayed longer as this was truly a wonderful stay.

Muy bonita la casa y la atención espectacular!

We loved the house, excellent cleanliness and it has all the amenities you generally need. Highly recommended!

Nos encantó la casa, excelente limpieza y cuenta con todas las comodidades que generalmente se necesitan. Muy recomendada!

The Mariposa Inn was wonderful! My family  stayed two nights and loved the house, the location and Esteban! He was so helpful; we would definitely recommend this to any family looking for the jungle experience. Pura Vida!

Esteban is a wonderful host. He takes time to answer all questions. Breakfast are delicious. We highly recommend this place! Nadia & family

Esteban is a great host and very attentive to his guests needs. The place is nice and open and perfect for a family of 5-6. The deck was great to enjoy the evenings and morning coffee. Our kids loved to sit and watch the many birds and insects that would come by. Location is a bit farther from downtown but only a few minutes drive to restaurants, bakery, market and activities. We saw many people walk the sidewalks to go towards the center of town.  Breakfasts are copious and delicious and not having to move to get it was a huge plus for us. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a cozy mountain cabin feel type of place that is clean, spacious and has all the amenities you typically need.

Esteban is one of the nicest guys you will meet. He responded to questions immediately and helped us plan our stay well. Location is very central to  many attractions, food and restaurants

The house is surrounded by jungle, preferably take a car even if walkable but less convenient if it is raining or long distance. Esteban is a very professional host and the apartment is perfectly clean and warm

La maison est entourée de jungle, de préférence prenez une voiture même si faisable à pieds mais moins pratique en cas de pluie ou longue distance à faire. Esteban est un hôte très professionnel et l'appart est parfaitement propre et chaleureux

Esteban was the best part of the entire experience. 

Esteban is very welcoming. We enjoyed lunch.  Quiet and very well located place.

Esteban est très accueillant. Nous avons bien apprécié le déjeuner.  Endroit calme et très bien situé

We had a great time at Esteban’s place. The space was beautiful, comfortable, and clean. It’s about 10 minutes from Santa Elena and less than five minutes from the Monteverde Nature Preserve. Esteban was extremely nice and helpful and a delicious breakfast was included as part of the stay. Highly recommended.

Esteban and his beautiful property are awesome.  Just minutes from Monteverde Reserve, his property is quiet, very clean, and in an awesome location for any activity that Monteverde has to offer!  Highly, highly recommend!

Esteban’s little family complex is absolutely adorable! We were in the 2-bedroom upper unit in the duplexed cottage. Very nice! Kitchen outfitting was adequate but minimal (eg could use a saw edge knife). Everything was comfortable and clean. Unfortunately, we left a day early as the weather was cold and wet and windy. Not esteban’s fault 🙂. We could be cold and wet at home! So we headed back to the coast. Maripisa is a top shelf place to stay while in Monte Verde.

Basic amenities.  Was cold and no heat but extra blankets provided   One of the two showers never got hot.   The 2 bedroom unit was very spacious. Easy to find. Adequate parking.  WiFi in lobby worked well - not so strong in room.   We did not use kitchen but it had pots and pans. Terrace was lovely.  Location is perfect for hiking in National Park.  For more bars and restaurants stay in Santa Elena.  Not a far drive but roads are narrow.  We did not want to be too far away at night.

Mariposa was a very nice place to stay.  It's just out of town a short drive away.  We stayed in the 2 bedroom plus kitchen for 2 nights which was probably too big for us because we didn't do any cooking and didn't need the extra bedroom and bathroom.  But it would be great for more people.  The breakfast was great and the helpful Esteban was very accommodating to our needs.  They also have other accommodations.

It's the cutest place ever! Esteban was very welcoming and attentive. He helped us figure out things to do in the area. Breakfast was awesome and some of the best food we've had in Costa Rica so far. The place was clean and spacious. We would've loved to have stayed longer and would definitely visit again. 

Excellent location nestled in trees. Esteban is a great host. He gave us good information and tips. It was raining and he had umbrellas for all. Breakfast was good 

Our stay in Esteban's BnB was absolutely wonderful! It was an awesome spot which was close enough to town but also amongst the animals and the trees in the rainforest. The wooden detail and beautiful views provide a breathtaking backdrop for your Monteverde stay and was exactly what we were looking for! Esteban himself is also the nicest, most helpful and accommodating host! He will help you with everything you need from calling a taxi to setting up your ziplining tour (complete with pickup and drop-off!). Breakfast was also delicious and freshly made each morning. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for accommodation in the Monteverde area. It was Great value and an awesome experience.

Esteban is a fantastic host! He provides great care and tourist information   The home was spacious, clean, and nice. We definitely recommend staying here - and you also get a wonderful free breakfast! Thanks Esteban for making our stay great. 

We spent one night at Mariposa B&B and we absolutely loved it. The house is very well maintained, in a beautiful setting. It is very close to the Cloud Forest. Esteban was very helpful with information we needed, the breakfast was delicious. We highly recommend this place! 

A real pleasure to stay at Esteban's!! We were greeted with a smile and lots of professionalism . Breakfast included in the price of the stay was great !! NICE WORK !! And the accommodation very spacious, clean and very well appointed !

Un réel plaisir de séjourner chez esteban !! Nous avons été reçus avec le sourire et beaucoup de professionalisme . Le petit déjeuner compris dans le prix du séjour était excellent !! BRAVO !! Et le logement très spacieux propre et très bien aménagé !

Esteban is amazing and so is Mariposa House!  Esteban is such a nice host, gave us suggestions, made a reservation for us, served a great breakfast, etc.... Just the friendly and knowledgable host you would want.  Mariposa House was spacious, clean, and really cool as it almost seems you're in a tree house.  You even have a giant balcony for looking out over the woods or the sunset through the trees.  I highly recommend this!

Estaban was the perfect host, polite, knowledgeable & helpful. We stayed at the Mariposa for 2 nights, the apartment was as described and we had no trouble finding it.  It was a lovely tranquil setting & felt like we were living in a tree house. Sadly we missed the visit from a family of armadillos but there were loads of birds squirrels and hummingbirds to watch from the windows.  Breakfast was lovely, fresh coffee, juice & hot chocolate for the children. Fresh fruit, pancakes & eggs made to order. I'm pretty sure the bread was also baked fresh in the kitchen.  Estaban gave us good advice about various hanging bridge & zip wire tours, he was very knowledgeable about what they all had to offer, timings pick up's etc. (much more than any of the offices in town) He also recommended a night hike for us to take and made the booking on our behalf.   You will probably need your own transport if you stay here, as it is out of town (15 min drive into St Elena), however, if you are looking for a good mid range comfortable accommodation away from backpacker land this is for you.
