Dreams Lodge

We got to see Capuchin monkeys. The staff was very friendly and professional. The breakfast was delicious and variety. This lodge hotel is not fancy, but it has a cozy feeling.

We like the location. Tonny, the owner and the team were excellent All there recommendations on activities and dining were spot on

This was a great place to stay in the cloud forest. The rooms were perfect and breakfast was really good. The bonus for us was when the capuchin monkeys showed up after breakfast while we were getting ready to leave, so we got to give them bananas to eat. The staff was super friendly and always accomodating. They recommended a superb night tour and made arrangments for us to be picked up. You cannot go wrong with this place - it is a must stay!

Staff is friendly and helpful. Location is near downtown and restaurants. Very clean. Breakfast is excellent.

It was a short stay but it was sweet! Laundry service was quick and professional. Tony helped us organize popular tours including coffee farm, night walks, ziplining, and horseback riding. He gave us the best recommendations and my kids had a great time. The breakfast was also delicious and we enjoyed Tony’s homemade marmalade. I highly recommend staying here!

Extremely friendly staff, and Tonney won't let you leave for your daily activities until you've had his breakfast!! Fairly quiet (there is a small dirt road that runs adjacent to the property, where dirtbikes and ATV's occasionally go down, making noise), secluded property. Good location, outside of the hustle and bustle of downtown, but close enough to go for restaurants and activities! Rooms are a little small. Bathroom, including the shower, was less than 2 meters square. A lot of colorful birds around! We saw some wild parrots in the treetops!! Howler monkeys will wake you up at sunrise!! (we enjoyed hearing them :) )

We had an amazing time, Tony was extremely helpful in setting up some adventures for us that we actually stayed an extra night to enjoy Monteverde. Tony was amazing and we definitely recommend staying here.

My family of 4 (2 adults/2 teens) traveled to Monteverde to show the kids where we had visited 15 years ago on our honeymoon. (For this trip we decided to splurge on a place in Arenal and keep within a stricter budget in MV. Ironically, we found our hotel in Arenal extremely overpriced and unpleasant.) While it is true that the Dreams Lodge is low-frills, and the bathrooms are small and sp****, we were not looking for nor expecting luxury. What we needed was some TLC from staff and pleasant surroundings. This is exactly what we experienced! The rooms were clean. The beds had multiple standard-sized pillows (including some smaller throw pillows) and we each found what worked for us. The bathrooms were equipped with pedestal sinks, and a hutch with shelves for toiletries. (Having had no towel bars in the more expensive place in Arenal, we made due without the towel bars here as well. I brought a hanger in the room and hung my towel out to dry.)… What made the Dreams Lodge experience so wonderful for us was the staff, the surrounding wildlife, and the location. It was far enough from town to see wildlife on the grounds and appreciate a starlit sky on a windy night, but just a short drive to grab dinner in town. We had a troop of capuchin monkeys visit us each day. The staff were friendly, they allowed us to store our belongings in the office both for our early arrival AND our late departure. Breakfast was delicious. They offered transportation services to various locations and provided recommendations based on our interests. We also really enjoyed a nice little restaurant just a short walk down the dirt road that served great drinks and food in a lovely wood-paneled dining room. (I wish I remembered the name). Our friend’s daughter had a leg brace on and did fine walking the short distance down the road to the restaurant.

Very comfortable. Excellent breakfast included. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Location is excellent! Highly recommend.
