Studio in Monte Verde

COFFEE VIEW CABIN - Farm stays for Rent in Monte Verde, Provincia de Puntarenas, Costa Rica

We loved Wil's place. First, the view is amazing. The photos don't do it justice. Wil and his dad are very friendly and the place is quite comfortable. It's a bit far from downtown Monteverde, but there's a small market nearby, and they also offer breakfast, lunch and dinner service. The family lives on the same estate/property and has two cats, one that will want to play with you and sometimes come into the house. Overall, I recommend staying at Wil's AirBnb!

Nos encantó el lugar de Wil. Primero, la vista es increíble. Las fotos no le hacen justicia. Wil y su papá son muy amables y el lugar es bastante cómodo. Está medio lejos de Monteverde centro, pero hay un pequeño mercado cerquita y ellos ofrecen también servicio de desayuno, almuerzo y cena. La familia vive en la misma finca/propiedad y tiene dos gatos, uno que va a querer jugar contigo y a veces entrar la casa. En general, recomiendo quedarse en el AirBnb de Wil!

Very good accommodation, the view is exceptional. We felt like part of Will's family. A real experience.

Logement très bien, la vue est exceptionnelle. Nous nous sommes sentie comme une partie de la famille de Will. Une vraie expérience.

The place was wonderful with the best view ever, would absolutely recommend!!!

We had a great time at Wil's cottage. The view over the green hills is great, and from the balcony you can watch sunsets and rainbows. The place was clean and well appointed. There is even a warm rain shower with a view of the countryside. But the highlight was the freshly served coffee from Wil in the morning, right next to his own coffee plants. 10/10!

Wir hatten eine großartige Zeit in Wils Hütte. Der Ausblick über die grünen Hügel ist toll, vom Balkon aus lassen sich Sonnenuntergänge und Regenbögen beobachten. Die Unterkunft war sauber und gut ausgestattet. Es gibt sogar eine warme Regendusche mit Blick ins Grüne. Das Highlight war aber der frisch servierte Kaffee von Wil morgens, direkt neben den eigenen Kaffeepflanzen. 10/10!

We had a lovely couple of nights at Wil's place. The view was incredible-definitely make sure you have time to enjoy! Wil was very friendly and we enjoyed dinners and coffees from the farm along with good conversations. Would definitely come back again

Staying with William was definitely the highlight of our trip. We based our airbnb stays around the hosts and this was truly the most heartfelt and special moments of our trip. Having coffee in the mornings and sharing dinner with William made us remember what life is really all about. We will cherish our moments spent here and will absolutely return when in the area. Not to mention, the views are gorgeous and the quiet you find here is perfect. We don’t mind/quite prefer to be outside of cities so we were good with being out of Santa Elena a short drive. This is a place of respite. If you’re looking to slow down and soak in the culture and peace of Costa Rica, you must stay here. Pura Vida

We had a wonderful stay! The family is so kind and welcoming! Very helpful when asking for local recommendations and very responsive as well. The views are amazing and a great sunset spot. The meals and coffee were delicious. We will definitely stay here again when back in the area!

Super nice, quiet location with a beautiful view and also wonderful to retreat to after activities and to sit comfortably on the terrace in the company of the cat Paquito. The owners are also friendly and arrange tours that appeal to you.

Super leuke rustige locatie met een prachtig uitzicht en ook heerlijk om na activiteiten effe terug te trekken en om aangenaam op het terras te zitten met het gezelschap van de kat paquito. de eigenaars zijn ook vriendelijk en regelen tours die je aanspraken.

An absolute gem, the view is amazing and the cabin is beautiful and comfortable. The hot shower was great! Well stocked kitchen. Wil is a wonderful host and was so great to get to know over cups of coffee made with beans grown on his farm.  His family is lovely :)  He also makes a delicious dinner and other meals that you can enjoy while watching all the birds and animals. We can not recommend his  place enough!! If your a coffee lover this is definitely for you. Thank you again Wil, we were so happy to stay with you 😊✨

If you’re considering staying here—do it. This was hands down one of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve had. William is an incredible host. Every morning he made us fresh breakfast that was honestly better than most restaurants, along with fresh-ground coffee grown right on the property. You can’t beat that. What really set this place apart, though, was the hospitality. We had dinner with William and his family one night, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our entire trip. Just a genuinely great time getting to know them and experience the culture in a real way. The scenery is beautiful—rustic, peaceful, exactly what you hope for when coming to Costa Rica. But the time we spent with William and his family is what we’ll remember the most. Highly recommend. We’d come back in a heartbeat.

Stunning view, such a relaxing place. Great hosting. The family is lovely. A small kitchen had just been installed, which was very convenient given the relative distance from the center.

Vue magnifique, endroit tellement relaxant. Superbe accueil. La famille est adorable. Une petite cuisine venait juste d’être installée, très pratique vu le relatif éloignement du centre.

Pictures don’t do this place justice - views are breathtaking. Everything was super clean as well. Wil is an amazing host that made you feel right at home. Genuinely great guy. Make sure to try some of his coffee and his delicious cooking. I’d definitely stay here again.

Wil and his family were simply wonderful and made us feel like one of their own. We were able to have dinner with them the first night of our stay and get to know them which was such a treat. Wil and family were always happy to help with recommendations and get a last minute tour of their family coffee farm. Anyone who is looking for a peaceful stay in the mountains of Monteverde this is the spot for you.

Beautiful!  We enjoyed the coffee and tour as well as excellent food and sunsets. Wil and his family made us feel a part of their family. The road to get there is not paved. We were driving a smaller car.  It would have been an easier drive with a SUV type of vehicle, but we made it and it was worth the trip.

Costa Rica is full of amazing experiences. From zip lining to surfing to wildlife viewing, it truly offers something for everyone. But through all of our adventures, staying with Wil and his family was the highlight of our trip. Being immersed in the mountains of Monteverde with views of the cloud forest and the Pacific Ocean would have been enough to make our stay worthwhile. But being able to spend time with Wil and his family is what made our stay unforgettable. We will cherish drinking coffee early in the morning with Wil, taking a tour of the family coffee farm, and relaxing on the porch as the clouds rolled over the hills. Staying with Wil is an authentic Costa Rican experience that should be at the top of your list. We can’t wait to go back!

Words cannot describe how special our visit was. Jaw dropping view, bird watching, rainbows, coffee, friendship. The best part of our stay was having the deep privilege of getting to know Wil and his precious family. We felt deeply connected to them. William is one of the most kind, gentle, hospitable people you will ever meet. He made us coffee every morning and we shared many meals together. He shared his home and heart with us. He was wonderful with my children and they adored him. His daughter Kim was also so kind and hospitable and my kiddos had tons of fun playing with her children. Wilfredy was friendly and helpful as well...they are a gem of a family and we felt like a part of their family by the end of our visit. If you're looking for resort-like accommodations, this isn't the place for you. If you want a peek into authentic Costa Rican life, and the privilege of spending time with the nicest people you've ever met...book now! We definitely left a piece of our heart behind.

Staying at Wil’s place was one of my favorite memory in Costa Rica. Wil’s family especially his dad and his sister Kimberly were very friendly and welcoming! We opted to do the coffee tour and meals made by them. It was very informative tour and we were able to try their Arabica coffee at the end. The meals that they made for us were very fresh and good as well! You will also get to witness the most beautiful sunrise and sunsets here!! Unforgettable stay. Wil’s dad was such a kind and hard working man and it was heartwarming to chat with him.

Staying at this coffee farm in the cloud forest was truly divine. It was the perfect place to rest, recharge, and soak in nature. The room and balcony were amazing, with views that honestly take your breath away. Indeed, I sat there for hours reading and taking in the natural beauty all around me. Wil was a fantastic host, and it was such a joy to meet and spend time with him and his wonderful family. Their hospitality, warmth, and kindness made this stay even more special. I’m deeply grateful for this stay and would return in a heartbeat.

This place is full of magic. From the very beginning, the family who lives here makes the experience truly special — they are incredibly sweet, kind, and welcoming, and they make you feel like part of their own family. The view is absolutely breathtaking and fills you with a deep sense of peace. The beds are extremely comfortable, and the bathroom is very practical and stylish. I highly recommend the coffee tour — it’s an amazing experience where you can truly learn and connect with the culture. The breakfasts they offer are delicious, and the coffee is simply divine. Honestly, don’t think twice — just book this place. It’s a complete experience and a beautiful representation of Costa Rican culture.

Thank you Gretty for staying with us and taking the time to write such beautiful words. We're so excited you liked our place.

Wil and his family's finca is a little treasure in the middle of Monteverde's lush nature. And the exceptional view offered by this modest but oh so moving place will remain etched in our memories forever. If you choose this adventure to meet a Costa Rican family who has lived in contact with nature for 3 generations, to learn more about coffee culture and to eat in the company of the patriarch William, a man with an inspiring soul and a heart of gold, you will be forever marked by your stay! An experience in the heart of "tica" authenticity! *4x4 car required to get there! And for sensitive hearts, the road is wonderfully winding and steep! I'll remember that too ;-)

La finca de Wil et de sa famille est un petit trésor au milieu de la nature luxuriante de Monteverde. Et la vue exceptionnelle qu’offre ce lieu modeste mais oh combien émouvant, restera gravée dans nos mémoires à jamais. Si vous choisissez cette aventure pour rencontrer une famille costaricienne qui vie en contact avec la nature depuis 3 générations, pour en apprendre plus sur la culture du café et pour manger en compagnie du patriarche William, homme à l’âme inspirante et au coeur d’or, vous serez marqués à jamais par votre séjour! Une expérience au coeur de l’authenticité « tica »! *voiture 4x4 obligatoire pour s’y rendre! Et aux coeurs sensibles, la route est formidablement sinueuse et pentue! Ça aussi je m’en souviendrai ;-)

An absolutely lovely place, the family was very welcoming and nice. The view is unbelievable, we saw dozens of bird species including two types of toucans and all kinds of different colors, just as good as the bird watching in the reserves. Highly recommend visiting Finca Ecologia San Luis just down the road, it’s owned by the same family and the trails and wildlife there were fantastic, just as good as the more popular reserves without the crowds, we had the place to ourselves which was amazing, there is even a swimming area along the river there, and they set out fruit for the birds attracting dozens of species. Their coffee shop they own Kaffi was also lovely and had very good coffee. Can’t go wrong getting this place, especially if you want a more authentic local experience in Monteverde.

Wil is an incredibly nice and accommodating host. The accommodation is a bit out of the way, but we were also aware of that and wanted it. The view and the surroundings of the cloud forest were a dream. The room itself is very simply furnished and is often haunted by one or the other insect. Nevertheless we had a lovely time!

Wil ist ein unglaublich netter und zuvorkommender Gastgeber. Die Unterkunft ist etwas weg vom Schuss, aber das war uns auch bewusst und so gewollt. Die Aussicht und die Umgebung des Nebelwaldes waren ein Traum. Das Zimmer selber ist sehr einfach eingerichtet und wird gerne von dem einen oder anderem Insekt heimgesucht. Dennoch hatten wir eine schöne Zeit!

Most amazing time at Wil’s and his family, definitely the highlight of our trip! The house has a beautiful view (pictures don’t give it justice) and surroundings, it’s super peaceful! Wil and his family were super welcoming (especially his father who is super nice), we felt at home straight away. The food was great and they gave us a little of very useful tips on the area (nice unknown reserves, road advice..) and a super interesting coffee tour. The kids were super super cute and nice ! Location indeed requires a 4WD, but that’s for everywhere in the country so it should not be an issue when one plans his/her trip there, and the instructions to the house were very precise so it was easy to find! Overall an amazing stay! Thank you again!!!

Gracias Chahin por visitarnos y tomarte el tiempo de dejarnos tan gratas palabras. Fue un verdadero placer conocerte.

When in / around Monte Verde, Wil's cabana is a good choice. overlooking San Luis Valley and mountains. the view is hard to match elsewhere. The cabana is new and crisp. it is next to their home, sharing the outdoor space which was a blast for our toddler as she could play with theirs. Wil is very knowledgeable about coffee, having his own microlot farm with great coffee! Closeby is their coffee bar Kaffi, a must visit as well.

Thanks Arnoud! We also enjoyed having you!

A place with an amazing view. Very beautiful. The company of the owner of the house was also a pleasure. He took us to see his farm and we learned a lot. A beautiful experience

Un lugar con una vista increíble. Muy hermoso. La compañía del dueño de casa también fue un placer. Nos llevó a conocer su finca y aprendimos mucho. Una hermosa experiencia

Gracias Florencia! Fue un gusto hospedarte

Wil, the host, is truly one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. Since the cabin is located just outside of town, we opted for a home-cooked meal for $12 per person—and it was absolutely worth it. The portions were generous, delicious, and made entirely with organic ingredients from his own farm. We had the chance to meet Wil’s kids and grandkids, and our children had a great time playing together on the swings. Communicating with Wil was also a fun opportunity to practice our Spanish, as he doesn’t speak English. The cabin itself offers stunning views of the valley and mountains, often with breathtaking rainbows. It’s a unique and authentic experience—one that left us with a new friend we hope to see again someday.

We absolutely LOVED our stay here. It exceeded expectations in every way.  The views were stunning. Wilfredy and his family welcomed us into their family. Would definitely recommend enjoying some meals with the family and spending time with them - they are so welcoming!! Also stop by Kaffi, their coffee shop, downtown. Some of the best coffee (and croissants) I’ve had.

Highly recommend this place to stay in Monteverde! The host was super welcoming when we arrived and was kind throughout. The place is as described with a beautiful view overlooking the mountains which allowed for a peaceful and relaxing place to stay. To note, having a car or using taxi’s is most likely needed to stay here. There wasn’t really any restaurants or places to walk to without driving into the main township.

Just the most wonderful stay on Wilfredy’s family farm. They are a lovely family and made my daughter feel right at home. Highly recommend doing a coffee tour of the farm and also make a visit to their coffee shop Kaffi, in town at an art gallery.

We had a fabulous time getting to explore the area and getting to know William. It felt like a true Costa Rican experience. As long as you anticipate bugs (it’s the rain forest) and it being a bit of “glamping”, you’ll love it.

Don't miss this enchanting place and its welcoming and generous family to make a memorable visit to MonteVerde. The plantation tour as well as the few meals shared with the family made this experience even more special.

Ne manquez pas cet endroit enchanteur et sa famille accueillante et généreuse pour faire un passage mémorable au MonteVerde. La visite de la plantation ainsi que les quelques repas partagés avec la famille ont rendu cette expérience encore plus spéciale.

The home is tucked into the mountain. We were greeted by Williams' huge smile and made us feel welcomed. The porch overlooks the valley. The view is incredible. The family is precious. Our daughter loved playing with their children. The family has a coffee farm that you can walk a trail to view. We lived sitting on the porch, listening to thr birds and immersing ourselves in nature. Our last morning- a rainbow was in the valley. The family is helpful and kind. We would be thrilled to stay here again if we make it back to Monteverde. (Their coffee is pretty amazing too)

Gracias April por visitarnos y por tomarte el tiempo de dejarnos tan gratos comentarios!! Esperamos su regreso!

Will and Family are truly incredible hosts and have a small slice of heaven. The property is absolutely beautiful and the scenery is unmatched. We were lucky enough to see the beautiful purple orchids bloom and have bird visitors each morning. The location is very close to the Cloud Forest and about 115 minutes from town. We drove out and back quite a few times and the view is stunning as it goes over San Luis peak, perfect for Sunset watching. William and Will were so kind, responsive, and helpful to our needs and very kind to our 4 year old. This house is off the beaten path so expect an adventure on the way in, and keep in mind your in the jungle on top of a mountain there will be plenty of bug/animal visitors and sounds.

I cannot possibly describe how incredibly beautiful and lovely my stay was. If you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle for a while nothing else can compare. Beautiful and peaceful surroundings. Most importantly Wilfredy and his family are phenomenal, kind and loving people. Wilfredy’s father William showed me around town, made me delicious meals, coffee every morning. He is a kind and thoughtful person who wants to make your stay magical. I not only found a lovely place to stay but a life long friend. Wilfredy’s sister Kimberly and her wonderful family were lovely as well and we had an incredible time on the coffee tour. If you are looking to get a local experience, this place is unmatched. Two things to note, I would recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle as the roads to and from can be difficult to traverse at times. Make sure you are a comfortable driver. Lastly, you will encounter wildlife and insects there. It is unavoidable, keep that in mind. Will be back. Pura Vida!

Un super séjour à Monteverde chez Wilfredy

It really was a great stay at the appartment. The Family was very kind and always ready to help. Great view from the appartment and definitely worth the money.

Beautiful location and super nice and fun family! Delicious food for purchase! Intimate coffee tour available upon request.

Excellent accomodation with spectacular view hosted by great people. Both Wilfredy and his father have gone one step beyond to make our stay unforgettable. We have seen monkeys, coati and many birds with tucans among them. His father even showed us the process they follow to select the good coffee cherries and dry them. We definitely recommend this exceptional accommodation! This is one of these places you wish to come back!

One text would not be enough to express the gratitude of having had this amazing stay in La Cabaña. From the beginning, we were beautifully welcomed by the family, they always smile and make you feel like you're part of the family. They take the time to chat with you and show you all the beauties of this place. In fact, we were lucky enough to be able to taste the good meals prepared by William. We are so grateful to have been able to experience these beautiful moments in La Cabaña and to have met this wonderful family. We also recommend visiting the coffee plantation. Thank you for everything and pura vida 🌈🐒

Un texte ne suffirait pas à exprimer la gratitude d’avoir vécu cet incroyable séjour à la Cabaña. Dès le début, nous avons été magnifiquement accueilli par la famille, ils ont toujours le sourire et vous font sentir comme si vous faisiez partie de la famille. Ils prennent le temps de discuter avec vous et de vous faire découvrir toutes les beautés de cet endroit. D’ailleurs nous avons eu la chance de pouvoir gouter aux bons repas préparés par William. Nous sommes si reconnaissants d’avoir pu vivre ces beaux moments à la Cabaña et d’avoir rencontré cette merveilleuse famille. Nous recommandons également la visite de la plantation de café. Merci pour tout et pura vida 🌈🐒

Gracias Valentin por tomarte el tiempo de dejar tan grato comentario.

if i could give this stay more than 5 stars i would. there is a special magic to this place, thank you to William and his family for hosting us. the hospitality, views, conversations, and food were all unforgettable. we felt more like family/friends staying here than just visitors. we will be carrying the memory of this experience with us forever.

My family and I loved our stay at Wilfredy’s place. We were looking to expose our kids to a Costa Rican experience that is a little off the beaten track and this was perfect. His family is so welcoming and friendly and made us feel right at home. It was amazing to wake up each morning and see such an abundance of birds and even monkeys. Highly recommend partaking in the home cooked meals and the tour of the family’s coffee farm.

Melissa, thanks for visiting us and taking your time to leave a kind review!

The location is incredible with an amazing view. It is surrounded by nature and from the deck and room window we saw tons of birds, monkeys and even a tree frog at night. The whole family was incredibly welcoming and friendly. They respect your privacy but also make you feel right at home, offering a cup of coffee from their beans and bananas grown at the farm. Our children also loved playing with the two children in the family. Our kids also loved having their own bunk bed to sleep in!  It's a bit of a bumpy and curvy drive to get there but it's worth it for the view and natural setting.

It makes us happy that this stay made you happy! Thanks for choosing us!

What a fantastic experience! The property is as advertised - a quaint, comfortable cabin with an amazing view. We chose to have suppers and breakfasts made for us and they were delicious. William is the consummate host and a great cook! Wilfredy gave us great guidance and was always available to answer any questions that we had. Kimberly gave us a tour of the farm and was a wealth of information. We learned a great deal in a relatively short time and enjoyed every minute of it. We stayed for two days and met many members of the family (William, Wilfredy, Alexandra, Victor Manuel, Kimberly, Gabby, Amaya and Freysel) and they are all such wonderful people who made our stay so warm and friendly, we hated to leave. We will be recommending their property to every one of our friends who might travel to Costa Rica. It’s a must for anyone interested in a genuine, authentic, multi-generational family farm experience.

We already miss your beutiful family Dave! See you next time!

Me and my friends loved this beautiful stay in San Luis hosted by a very warm and welcoming family. We enjoyed a tour within their coffee plantation just outside of our stay and also bought a nice home made dinner which we had together with the family. Would really recommend this stay for anyone who loves coffee and would like to experience a more calm and beautiful rural Costa Rica experience.

Words cannot express the magical experience we had in Monteverde with the Leiton family! If you are looking to really immerse yourself into the Costa Rican culture, this is it. William and Wilfredy were amazing host, we were welcomed with fresh coffee at our arrival and every morning. William was the sweetest purest soul you'll ever come across and Wilfredy did amazing, booking our Night hike and giving us the coffee experience of their farm, which is 1000% worth doing. We enjoyed delicious authentic Costa Rican food cooked on the property. We left our hearts on the coffee farm and we cannot wait to be back!  already!

Wilfredy and her father are welcoming and warm people. The place totally matches the photos with an amazing view. We were able to taste Wilfredy's coffee which is very good. Excellent stay

Wilfredy et son père son des personnes accueillante et chaleureuse. Le logement correspond totalement aux photos avec une vue incroyable. Nous avons pu goûter le café de Wilfredy qui est très bon. Excellent séjour

Wilfredy’s place was phenomenal!!! We absolutely loved hanging out with and getting to know William - he is such a great guy and so friendly. I definitely recommend having a meal with him especially if you are able to speak even a little Spanish - you’ll learn a lot about his life and feel immersed in the culture. The farm is stunning and hearing the rain on the roof was such a peaceful way to end the day. Definitely need a 4x4 car but it’s not too far from main roads. Would absolutely stay again!!

My wife and I felt very comfortable with Wilfredy, Willy and the rest of the family. We had great conversations, got great tips and were cooked deliciously. Really a fun stay! We recommend trying the food and taking a coffee tour of the plantation. If we get to CR again, we'll be back! Best wishes & Pura Vida!

Meine Frau und ich haben uns bei Wilfredy, Willy und dem Rest der Familie sehr wohl gefühlt. Wir hatten tolle Gespräche, haben super Tipps bekommen und wurden lecker bekocht. Wirklich ein toller Aufenthalt! Wir empfehlen das Essen zu probieren und eine Kaffeetour durch die Plantage zu machen. Sollte es uns nochmal nach CR verschlagen, kommen wir wieder! Viele Grüße & Pura Vida!

We loved our stay. The family was so nice and welcoming. The views are spectacular. Unfortunately I was on a new medication and not feeling well so I didn’t get the chance to visit their coffee shop or do the coffee tour.  My husband had a dinner they cooked and said it was delicious but I did not due to not feeling well. If you would like a rustic stay in the mountain side I would definitely stay here.

Wonderful stay - such a beautiful setting! Loved hearing and watching the birds in the morning.

Thanks Steven for taking your time to leave a great review! We are glad you enjoyed your stay.

Excellent attention given by very nice people.

Excelente atención dada por personas muy agradables.

This was one of the best stays we’ve ever had. If you want a local, down-to-earth experience in Monteverde I highly recommend you stay here. The host’s family took amazing care of us and made my partner and I feel like family. We toured their coffee farm and ate breakfast with them in the mornings. This place is peaceful and full of love and genuine kindness. The views are incredible! It’s a bit of a drive so a 4x4 car is a good idea but probably not necessary. We loved how it was outside of the main town but easy to access. The space was large for 2 people and it was clean!

we had a wonderful time her with our family. it was so peaceful we wish we had longer time to stay and relax. theie family was so welcoming and friendly.

Great experience thank you to the whole family for making this stay very nice memories!

Super expérience merci à toute la famille pour avoir faire de ce séjour de très beaux souvenirs !

We were welcomed with open arms with the family and had a great time. What a lovely family. The house we sat in belongs to his father. The meals were nice, the cottage very neat and the view beautiful. Taking a meal is recommended, because you get to know them better. The road to it does require a good car. We hope to come back!

We werden met open armen ontvangen bij de familie en hadden een top tijd. Wat een lief gezin. Het huis waar we zaten is van zijn vader. De maaltijden waren lekker, het huisje heel netjes en het uitzicht prachtig. Een maaltijd erbij nemen is een aanrader, omdat je ze zo beter leert kennen. De weg ernaartoe vraagt wel om een goede auto. We hopen nog een keer terug te komen!

All the previous rave reviews are 100% true. Probably one of my fav stays of all time. such a beautiful location, and even more, Wilfredy and his family and endlessly kind and wonderful. It was a true gift to stay here. i travelled with my two small children, 5 and 3. They loved the space and the cat and dog. Kimberly was super kind and even braided their hair, they were very excited. it is more than an airbnb. it is a truly magnificent expérience. Also we chose to have breakfast there, made by Wilfredy and it was delicious!

Kayla, thanks for being wonderful guests and leaving such kind comments! Doors Will remain Open!

William is the owner of the property, and Wilfred’s father. He was there to greet us and show us around the property. He had breakfast available for 12$ which was alittle much but the food was fantastic, just not a lot for 12$. We paid for a tour of the coffee farm which was also a tad expensive but loved what I learned from it. The views both day and night are something I have never seen before, absolutely stunning. It felt safe and comfortable as we were essentially staying in someone’s home while they were there. I truly can not thank William enough for his hospitality and kindness it really gave something extra to the stay. Would recommend this to anyone looking to get off the grid but close enough to all the activities of the surrounding area. Thank you so much William for everything! Pura Vida!

We had a fantastic stay with Wilfrey! The accommodation was clean, modern and stylish and the view was incredible. We had breakfast and dinner with Wilfrey and he was the kindest person we have met so far in Costa Rica! A beautiful family (cat, dog and chicks included). If you’re in Monteverde and was to escape the hotels come here! A slice of real refreshing life ✨

Extremely nice family and knowledge, we loved learning about coffee and talking to Mr. William ! He is such a kind person and is very respectful.

Thanks for such Nice words! Looking forward to your next visit.

Wilfredy and his family were very warm and friendly. They also helped us when we got stuck with the car. We felt very welcome and comfortable.

Wilfredy und seine Familie waren sehr herzlich und freundlich. Sie haben uns auch geholfen, als wir mit dem Auto steckengeblieben sind. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen und wohl gefühlt.

We arrived earlier than the listed check in, yet even though we were early, Wilfredy and his family made us feel welcome and at home. We went on an excursion through their coffee farm, they invited us to their coffee shop, took us to a local swimming hole, a guided forest walk and they accommodated my food allergies. This place and the hosts exceeded our expectations! An authentic and unforgettable experience! Would love to return and until then, highly recommend!

Thanks Rachel and Guy for being the best guests one could have!

Absolutely gorgeous spot, a little ways out of town but worth it for the very special location on the family coffee farm. Wilfredy and his family were lovely, excellent hosts!

If you're looking for a peaceful, relaxing place to stay - this is it!  The cabin was wonderful, as pictured, and the views are incredible. Most importantly Wilfredy, William, and the rest of the family were responsive, welcoming and generous. We got to do the tour of the coffee farm and visit their new cafe (Kaffi) and really enjoyed both. Would definitely recommend this place!

The surroundings, the view is spectacular. Wilfredy and his family is a great host, we felt like at home. The breakfasts and dinners were tasty. Monteverde is very close, about 15 minutes by car. Super nice family, great location, highly recommended!

Was greeted by William, Wilfred’s dad along with doggy and el gato, the sweetest animals. Offered us coffee upon arrival. The views are absolutely amazing, one of kind. The drive is about 15 minutes to town down a steep hill but we were able to manage no problem. We had a great stay and loved the hospitality and the traditional Costa Rican experience. Be reminded this is in the jungle and you may see some spider/bugs. We are both squeamish of spiders and we saw one but the views took over our experience.

One of the best views we’ve had ever! We really appreciated the time we spent on our private balcony. The entire family was very welcoming, and our kid enjoyed petting the family dog, and play with the little cousin. You will be surrounded by nature, so take it in 😊

We loved our stay at Wilfredy’s place! It was so beautiful and quiet with amazing views of the plants and clouds in the morning. Friendly and sweet dog and cat on the property

We’ve never stayed at an Airbnb where we felt more at home than we did here. From the absolutely stunning view and the beautiful nature, it was truly the most peaceful and authentic experience. They just put in a brand new roof and private bathroom that was gorgeous! We’ll never take a shower with that good of a view again! This family clearly cares about each of their visitors - they were so kind and welcoming. We did the coffee tour on site and I highly recommend!! We had a car so it was easy for us to get to, it’s a bit outside of town and the roads aren’t fully paved all the way, but it was completely safe and very easy to get to restaurants, shops and things to do nearby all within 10 minutes! Their father William even made us homemade arepas and fresh coffee the morning we were leaving and even though our Spanish isn’t the best, he was so patient with us trying to communicate and just so happy to have us there. Left with so much gratitude. I could go on forever - we will be back

Wilfredy’s entire family is very warm and welcoming- one of our favorite parts of Monteverde was our conversations with William and Kimberly! For a (very reasonable) additional cost, William will cook you a meal. The breakfast he cooked us was absolutely delicious! It was so fun to try out our Spanish and eat an authentic home cooked meal. They have multiple air bnbs on their coffee farm with breathtaking views. We also got a coffee tour from Kimberly where we learned so much about coffee production and even got to pick some coffee beans ourselves. Thank you for welcoming us into your home!

We had an amazing stay with this beautiful family. They opened their home, farm and hearts to us! This is an amazing authentic experience we were so fortunate to have while in Costa Rica. Make sure you ask about swimming in the river while you are there. You will have it all to yourself as no tourists go there. The farm tour is also a must do! Christine and Charlie

The place was beautiful and the owner of the coffee farm was extremely welcoming. He treated us like family and was always there to help. Very good cook as well!

El lugar era hermoso y el dueño de la finca cafetalera fue extremadamente acogedor. Nos trató como a una familia y siempre estuvo ahí para ayudar. ¡Muy buen cocinero también!

Gorgeous, gorgeous place in the Monteverde hills. Sunsets and Stargazing from the balcony and hammock were the best thing we did in Costa Rica full stop. Honestly the Patio exceeded expectations. Wilfredy and family were very communicative and accommodating.You will need to be willing to try Spanish to communicate with William, but he is so fun and friendly. Both of their pets are so fun and cute. Coffee Tour with Kimberly was fun too! Place can be a little hard to find in the dark, but Wilfredy's instructions were pretty good. There will be a handful of bugs and insects. The shower is serviceable but not great.

The view is truly amazing, and the owner is friendly and kind. He showed us around and told us a little about his coffee. In terms of convenience it would be amazing if there were a way to make coffee in the room. (The owner did make us coffee in the morning by request which was very nice).

The place was perfect! The family was were friendly, inviting and responsive. The views from the patio were great! All attractions were close by

It was a top location for a top location. This was one of the most breathtaking views to wake up to. The host was cozy and offered a tour in his coffee plantation tour and we could enjoy a delicious meal with all the fresh from the garden. Our host's father lived nearby and was a very gentle man who could tell us all about the location and its meaningful history. Everyone was hospitable and no question was too much. We felt very much at home and at ease.

Het was een piekfijne kamer op een toplocatie. Dit was een van de meest adembenemende uitzichten om bij wakker te worden. De host was gezellig en bood een tour aan in zijn koffieplantage en we konden genieten van een heerlijke maaltijd met alle vers vanuit de tuin. De vader van onze host woonde vlakbij en was een zeer zachtaardige man die ons alles kon vertellen over de locatie en de betekenisvolle geschiedenis ervan. Iedereen was gastvrij en geen enkele vraag was te veel. We voelden ons erg thuis en op ons gemak.

A great Cabana with one of the most beautiful views I have ever seen. Nice little accommodation, tidy and clean, where you can enjoy peaceful moments in a quiet and idyllic place in the middle of a coffee plantation. What a wonderful place off the beaten tracks! But the most beautiful is the family owning the property: Wilfredy, a coffee lunatic who can teach you everything about how to prepare the best coffee and what you need to know. And then there is his Dad, a kind-hearted coffee farmer who has worked with coffee all his life. You can feel his passion in every word he says about coffee and how he his treating his coffee plants, cherries and beans. Spending a day with him on the plantation, picking coffee, washing it, putting it out to dry was one of the most beautiful experiences I could have imagined. He is one of the best persons I have ever met and I feel very happy I got to know him! I have travelled the world and this is one of the best memories I made! Thanks for this!

Dennis, Thanks again for taking your time to write such a valuable review. We are very honored that you enjoyed your stay at our farm and you have valued our family, farm and facilities. We try our best so that every visitor has a memorable experience in our property.

Wilfredy, William and Kimberly are amazing and kind people. This family takes care of the property quite well and also has amazing coffee plants all around the llace with a rich history. I 100% recommend this place. The view from the balcony is something to experience and cannot be described with words.

This place was absolutely beautiful and peaceful. We loved the views and the place was very nice and welcoming. The coffee here is some of the best coffee I’ve ever had. I highly recommend this place

Nice slice of paradise! Beautiful view from the bedroom and breathtaking sunset. Clean and warm. Would recommend!

Beau petit coin de paradis ! Superbe vue de la chambre et couché de soleil époustouflant. Propre et chaleureux. Je vous le recommande !

A beautiful and magical place in the mountains with amazing coffee. I stayed only 3 days and did not leave. There are things to do nearby, but I enjoyed relaxing on the deck with a view of the mountains and the Nicoya gulf in the distance. I enjoyed walking the farm and learning about the coffee. Wilfredo’s family is very nice and cooks delicious Costa Rican  meals for an extra fee. They also shared bananas and tea from the farm and of course I bought some coffee to take home!  The bed was comfy, they have hot shower and no ac needed because the mountains are cooler! I will stay longer next time!

Magnificent, as always! We counted several glorious rainbows during our stay, had gorgeous hummingbirds visit us repeatedly, and enjoyed the coffee and hospitality that can only be found here and is second to none. Thank you so much for everything!

Driving away from William & Wilfreddy’s place felt like saying goodbye to family. You will not find a more kind, genuine host. The view is amazing, beds are comfortable, generosity outstanding; but it was the sense of being a part of their family that made this stay magical. Thank you for teaching us about your work, playing with our kids, sharing meals, and making a real connection. This is what travel is all about. Also, the kids are already missing doggy!

This is our fourth stay at this cabina nestled on a family coffee farm, and there is nowhere else in Monteverde we will Airbnb. The Leiton family are so warm and welcoming, truly embodying the spirit of Pura Vida and always going out of their way to make us comfortable. If you want more than a tourist experience and you want to unwind in the most beautiful place imaginable, you have found your Airbnb! If you add on the extra experiences, you will love the delicious and convenient home-cooked meals (breakfast and/or dinner) and will be intrigued and enriched by the coffee tours . As a final tip, you will learn so much from reading through all of the reviews to see the many fun things people did while staying at the cabina. If you do all of these things, you will more or less have your whole trip planned. :) Adventure, serenity, and authentic experience await you. Pura Vida!

Saying we loved it here is an understatement! This stay was amazing. William and his whole family were so welcoming. We ate multiple meals with them and learned about the area. The views are above and beyond. Would love to go back! The price was appropriate and adding on meals was affordable. The coffee was excellent!

We spent 3 nights here and were able to take advantage of much of what Monteverde has to offer. We enjoyed the on-sight coffee tour, walking down to the river, Curi Cancha reserve, CASEM, Zelmi’s Pizza, Belkale Beer Garden & Café Monteverde (among a few others). The cabin was suitable for a few days but visitors should know it is a rustic feel. Some of the family lives next door so you do get more of a hospitality aspect. If that isn’t up your alley, they also have a new unit (finished spring 2023) for rent with updates/more privacy. Overall, we enjoyed our stay with the beautiful views & friendly hosts! Thank you William and Wilfredy for your hospitality. Pura vida!

Amenities and privacy are lacking. Someone entered our bathroom when we were out. Someone removed furniture from our patio during our stay. Resident kept attempting to talk to us. No hot water in shower. Shared very old washer. Rusty refrigerator. Dated bathroom with cracked tile. No interior ceiling, roof and walls are not insulated from sound (wind and people). Some gaps in bathroom walls (enclosed porch with gaps) Stained curtains. Tears in bed linen. Very close to neighbor and door is often open. Remote and dangerous to leave at night due to treacherous dirt roads - no street lights or food options in the immediate vicinity. Owner tried to sell us a $30 per person ($90) tour of the farm. We felt uncomfortable. Perfect if you want to be social in an authentic, no frills environment, but not as described. Stunning view and adorable cat and dog.

Julia, we really appreciate that you have told us about your experience. It helps us improve for future guests and this is very important to us. It is unfortunate that you focused on the negative aspects that have actually been minor for other guests to enjoy a lot more our, as listed, rustic farm stay. Yes we are already starting to rebuild the place little by little as to offer a better experience in the near future. We have changed the hot water system which was actually working but it was a little tricky, this was one of the reasons we kept trying to talk to you so that we could explain how it worked, but you kept turning your face away. It is understandable that you were maybe seeking a place, like a resort, to stay in and not an authentic local farm experience. As it is indicated on the listing, the patio section closer to our home is a shared space with the family so yes, furniture can be moved around. The private balcony is completely for the guests and we respect that space fully. We entered the batroom when guests were not inside, as to fix a water leak on the sink.

Absolutely beautiful location, I cannot reccomend this place enough. Pros: Extraordinary host in terms of being available, friendly, and just a wonderful human being. 20 minutes from Monteverde. There is LOTS to do within a 30 minute drive. THE VIEW IS AMAZING. I was absolutely stunned every time I looked outside. The view and ambiance alone make this 100% worth it. Also, take advantage of the coffee plantation tour. It's excellent and worth the price, can be booked through abnb app as well. Cons: The location absolutely requires you having rented a 4x4. Anything less will be... Challenging... To get to. One other con we had was no hot water for the shower, which was fine for a few days but a longer stay might become an issue.

Our stay there was amazing. The place is simple but the view from the little porch outside is stunning and we enjoyed waking up to the rising sun. William was super kind and cooked us nice meals. We enjoyed the homemade coffee.

A magical stay in all ways. From the stunning views, farm harvested meals, and abundant wildlife to William and his family’s warmth and kindness. Wilfredy, William’s son is an expert in all things coffee and the farm tour was fascinating. The farm is a labor of love for this family. We are grateful for the time we had with them. Best part of our trip.

We feel honored knowing that you enjoyed your stay with us. Thanks for appreciating and valuing what we have to offer

Wish we’d had the great experience other guests wrote about. After booking, Wilfredy let us know he would be away on vacation. His partner was sweet but we missed out on the coffee tours, hiking trails, hospitality, culture and warm welcome others spoke of. A lot of little things added up to a disappointing experience. The price was very high for what ended up just being a bed with a beautiful view but no dishes, no way to heat food or wash our water bottles, and no way to make coffee on a coffee farm (!). We could have paid two thirds the price for a full house in Santa Elena with a kitchen and a view. Because the bathroom is open to the outdoors, we had a scorpion in our shower. Doggy the dog is sweet but grumpy, he snapped at our daughter. Ants in the bar fridge. Porch wet and dirty, no hammocks as seen in the photos. Really hate to leave a negative review for any host, but so many things added up to us being glad to leave a day early.

I do not usually like to contradict a customers review as the experience each one has it is what it is and things can go unperfect at times and we are humbly aware of that. For this terrible review I just cannot remain quiet as I honestly think it is more about the guest being biased prior to the arrival than about our location being that bad. On one hand the guest marks the place as unprivate, but on the other hand complaints that nobody is there during the stay (what could be more private than having an entire location to oneself?). Yes, as it is shown on the advertisement, for the moment this is a room just to sleep, rest and enjoy the view and the farm, not having a kitchen, dishes and a coffee maker should not be a surprise as it is never offered. I do have to clarify that we will always do our best to let you use our microwave, dishes and sink even if we are not there as we could have a family member come over to assist. Heather never asked for such facilites even though we were transparent and clarified that we would not be there but were still available by chat in case they needed ANYTHING. If you are doubting to book out location only because of this review, the only one thing you should do is book and find out that this does not describe our experience fairly. Please let me guarantee that If you come and find Doggy being that grumpy, or if you have such a terrible stay, you let me know and I will reimburse you for one night and even gift some specialty coffe for you to take back home.

I was lucky enough to share a cup of coffee with Wilfredy’s father one morning. Lovely man who told me a lot about his farm, process and coffee in Costa Rica. The coffee was so good I bought some from him! He gave me a pineapple a friend had grown and it was one of the best I’ve ever had. Very rustic setting and simple accommodation, but it’s priced accordingly.

Eric, thanks for such a great review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay.

Great jumping off point for adventures in the Monteverde area. Wilfredy and his family were great hosts. The views from the room are incredible - the best we had in Costa Rica.

My goodness. By far the best place we have stayed yet in Costa Rica. The hospitality was a home away from home. We would 10/10 recommend a coffee tour with Wilfredy at Montanoa! Stop in and have a great traditional Costa Rican breakfast/coffee with the family! We loved every second on diving into Costa Rican culture and we will be back! Pura Vida!

Awesome experience. William was very warm and friendly. We felt like we we staying with a friend. Very private and beautiful surroundings.

Few words can describe how much we enjoyed our stay here. It was a bit closer to the main house than we expected, but the view somehow exceeded the pictures and the host and his father, William, were two of the kindest people we’ve ever met on our travels. We really enjoyed talking to William while enjoying the gorgeous sunsets in the evening and his son Wilfredy’s tour of the family’s coffee farm on the property was a highlight of our trip. It was also so delicious that we had to buy some to take home! We loved learning more about life in Costa Rica from them and seriously could not have asked for a better view. We had a car, which made it much easier to get to and from the house, and speak a bit of Spanish which made it very fun to be able to talk with William. We can’t recommend this stay enough! Definitely our favorite stay in Costa Rica.

Heaven on earth would be the most suitable description of this place. Would recommend to anyone who wants to relax, immerse yourself in unreal picture of mountains and sky, drink delicious coffee or learn more about it! ❤️ definitely a highlight of our trip to Costa Rica.

Rustic stay on the coffee farm. The place as described. The views are fantastic. The family  was very welcoming. It was great experience for us and our two children to meet and experience Costa Rican family.  When we visited it was very windy at night. No one can control the weather but if you a light sleeper the wind is quite loud at night. Overall a great place to stay.

We LOVED our stay at Finca Montanoa! The cabin is located right beside the home of Wilfredy’s father, William, who takes great care of his guests. Our hosts were kind, generous, and very responsive. The view was stunning. William practiced Spanish with us (he has limited English but it was easy to communicate with him), brought us delicious coffee from their farm, and even made me special tea for my stomachache. He has a very cute little dog whom we enjoyed hanging out with as well. We would definitely stay here again! A few things to know before your stay: The cabin is very open, but we didn’t have any trouble with bugs. The shower only gets hot when the water pressure is very low. It was excellent mid-day when we were hot from hiking, but chilly in the mornings and at night. The cabin is not very private. It is perfect if you want to meet local people, practice Spanish, and see what it is like to live in Costa Rica.

Great points: Beautiful sunset and sunset! Friendly hosts. Quiet environment and outside the tourist flow. Less positive points: The quality of the mattress.

Points positifs: Vue et coucher de soleil magnifiques! Hôtes sympathiques. Environnement calme et en dehors du flux touristique. Points moins positifs: La qualité du matelas.
