This hotel is run by a very warm and friendly family. We stayed with them over Christmas and they provided a special (and delicious) Christmas breakfast as well as a gift! We were very touched that they made the day special for guests. They also provided info about local plants and animals and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. For example, my husband caught a cold and they sent a tray with breakfast to our room. Our room had gorgeous views, was very clean, had nice decorative touches, and had options for temperature control (blankets, a heater, and a fan). The windows did not have screens, but there weren't any issues with bugs after leaving them open periodically to cool the room. The mini fridge also had 2 bottles of water, which we appreciated. Lastly, we really enjoyed the sound of rain on the roof at night and being greeted by monkeys outside our windows in the morning. Hotel Flor de Bromelia exceeded our expectations and was delightful.

Everything. It’s absolutely stunning. 11/10

Was hoping to have a coffee maker in the room

The property was very cosy and rural. It had kitchen facilities, fridge etc so one evening we ate in which was really pleasant. The balcony was lovely to sit in with sun in the evening and lovely birds flitting around. We also saw cute capuchin monkeys at the breakfast area which was delightful. The hosts were delightful people helping us order taxis etc. Really kind people.

Hill to the property is very steep so taxis or own transport is necessary for getting about. This wasn’t a big issue though.

The rooms (with fridge) are nicely spaced among a natural setting with a great view. The rooms have a large window front, surroundings are peaceful and quiet. Nearly each morning an Aguti and a Coati family came to have 'breakfast' in front of the reception. I also heard (but not saw) moneys nearby and you can watching birds right from your room. the owners are very friendly and helpful and organized transport, a water cooker and a heater to dry my clothes (it was rainy season). Overall I can only highly recommend.

If you don't have a car it's a steep climb up the hill to get to the hotel. Just something to be aware of. You are compensated by a great view ;-)

Absolutely fantastic experience from beginning to end! In terms of location you could not ask for more, perched high above Monteverde cloud forest. Our cabin was cute and cozy, which also had a balcony with breathtaking views. Even with all this, the heart of this hotel comes from the family who run it. Sofia is a conscientious, kind and caring young lady, who will make you feel at ease with instantly. She immediately took care of our dinner reservations, guided tours and additional travel plans. We did not need to worry about a thing! Her father Rey is equally as hospitable. We were unsure how to get to a restaurant, so he walked us all the way there to make sure we would not get lost! We also loved the breakfast included. It was delicious!

The wooden cabin we stayed at had huge windows for walls, we felt like we were sleeping in the jungle! Technically it’s not the jungle, but it’s very close and it has a very nice lush garden. Lots of animals live around the cabins: coatis, monkeys, capibaras, toucans (nesting next to our cabin) and armadillos. Breakfast was amazing, the staff exceptionally friendly (it’s a small family business). They make sure you see the animals while having breakfast by offering them some banana… They come every morning! The wifi was very fast. We could check-in late.

There is no a/c, although it didn’t bother us. Some parts of the interior of the cabin were a bit oldish, the tap wasn’t properly fixed on the sink.

The family that owns the property were very nice and accommodating. They welcomed us and prepared breakfast for us a half an hour earlier than their usual time so we could meet with a guide on time. The room had a refrigerator, two bedrooms, a microwave, coffee and a kitchen sink. The shower was hot with good water pressure. We had a nice private balcony to step out onto. The breakfasts were homemade, very filling and delicious. There was a different one each of the three mornings we ate there.

The walls were thin so we could hear our neighbors talking and walking around in their room. Also, the noise from the town came up from below the property. There was no air conditioning, which was okay, except that there were no screens on any windows or doors so we could not let in the fresh air without insects getting inside, especially in the evenings.

The staff were excellent, the view from the rooms was gorgeous. It's a family run operation that gives you a lot of privacy. My partner and I were on our honeymoon and the staff gave us a a lot of reccomendations and helped set up tours and guides for locations we were interested in. Sophie and Don Davide were perfect hosts. Breakfast is usually a fruit platter followed by traditional costa rican fare like gallo pinto, scrambled eggs, pancakes. The coffee really hit the spot as well.

We were amased by the room, the plants seemed to be crawling into it, a very special feeling. The staff were exceptional, the way they treated us, as if we were just long seen friends. They were extremely kind and helpful as well with proper information and accommodated our requests. David and Fabrizio went out of their way to make us feel like at home.This is a unique place, I'd recommend it to anyone who is looking for a tranquille and friendly place for their stay. Oh, and we could spot minkeys, koaties ad aguties. Thank you!!!

No such thing

I’m going to give this place 5 stars, but you may not. It depends on what you want and expect. If you like to be pampered at a 5-star resort, look elsewhere. Flor de Bromelia is perched on a mountainside with a magnificent vista that sweeps 35km to the sea. The family that owns this small place is warm and friendly. Breakfast is delicious, and we got to enjoy it in the company of monkeys and coatimundi. It’s a short (but steep) walk into the town.

Before you book, you should know that La Flor is muy rústico. Rustic. Like a camp in the mountains, with lots of real wood, it oozes charm. There is a microwave and fridge and kettle in the room, and the shower is good and hot. But you should know there is no heat or AC. We didn’t miss it, and neither probably will you—you don’t really need it. The bathroom and kitchen faucet produce only cold water, but again, not a problem. The total vibe more than makes up for it.
