Fodor's Expert Review Koora Hotel

Monteverde, Puntarenas, Costa Rica Fodor's Choice

Tucked into the mountainside, the main lodge with the restaurant and bar has a decidedly sophisticated feel, with spectacular views of the Pacific in the distance. Two-story suites are spacious, simple, and beautifully appointed. In addition to the main lodge, there are stand-alone bungalows, including a family suite with three bedrooms and two baths. The attentive staff is like that of a much pricier place, doting on you, knowing your likes, and helping with every last detail. Don't miss sunset happy hour with expertly crafted cocktails, or the restaurant with meals well suited to the epicure. Entrance to the Agouti Reserve with a 4 km (2½ miles) nature hike is included with your stay.

  • super-spacious bungalows for families
  • great restaurant and bar on-site
  • attentive service

CONS

  • rooms get warm during the day
  • capuchin monkeys can get cheeky
  • bungalows seem far from main lodge at night
