Located two kilometers from the town of Monteverde, the Cloud Forest Lodge is situated directly between the famous Monteverde Cloud Reserve and the Santa Elena Reserve in the Bellbird Biological Corridor, an important landbridge for wildlife between the two reserves. The lodge has recently undergone a major renovation in which no detail was spared. The lodge now offers spacious standalone units with private terraces overlooking the forest and local wildlife. The Cloud Forest Lodge is now a member of the exclusive Böëna Wilderness Lodges collection, a distinction focusing on farm-to-table gourmet cuisine, conservation, sustainable luxury, and community involvement.
Amenities
Guests will enjoy the walking trails within the lodges’ 23-hectare private nature reserve. The Cloud Forest Lodge comprises 25 suites, a main house and restaurant, an outdoor fire pit and bar, and elevated platforms for observing wildlife. The reserve is home to Costa Rica’s original zipline and canopy tour, a unique opportunity to explore the cloud forest from a bird’s eye view.
Endemica Restaurant has a fresh and lively menu sourced from local vegetables, fruits, and conscientiously harvested seafood, meats, and dairy. Each dish perfectly pairs with the selection of exclusive fine wines that the lodge offers.
Rooms
The Cloud Forest Lodge has 25 suites in total. There are three different accommodation levels accessible at the lodge: Manakin Suites, Euphonia Deluxe Suites, and Tityra Junior Suites. All rooms are non-smoking. The suites do not have a TV or a mini-bar but do have high-speed WiFi, a laptop-size safe, gourmet Costa Rican coffee, nightly turndown service, luxury linens, and soft bathrobes.
Manakin Suites
From your cozy private terrace, enjoy the melodic song of tropical birds like the Manakin bird for which the suites are named. Natural hardwood and artisanal details define the inner space. Choose between a King or two Queen beds with plush pillows, pillowtop mattresses, and fine linens. A spacious, bright bathroom is stocked with naturally sourced amenities, twin vanities, comfortable bathrobes, and a solar-heated rain shower.
Euphonia Deluxe Suites
Named for the Euphonia bird that can be heard from within the private 23-acre reserve, the Euphonia Deluxe Suite has either one King or two Queen beds able to accommodate four guests. Plush pillows, pillowtop mattresses, and the finest linens make the bedding particularly comfortable. The bathroom features spacious and bright twin vanities, bathrobes, natural amenities, and a solar-heated rain shower. Artisanal decor and wood furnishings are definitive of the Euphonia Deluxe Suite experience. A covered cozy terrace in view of the forest is an idyllic way to unwind after a day of exploring.
Tityra Junior Suites
Named for the Masked Tityra birds that inhabit the forest’s highest branches, the Tityra Junior Suites feature one King-size bed with luxury pillows and linens and an integrated parlor with a reading nook/daybed, comfortable sitting areas, and a desk.
