Hidden Canopy Treehouses

Top choice in Monteverde & Santa Elena


The accommodations are perched on stilts (not in trees) but, goodness, everything else is perfect. Floor-to-ceiling windows encase this opulent forest retreat, while multihued hardwood floors and ceilings and tree-root furnishings highlight the natural surrounds. Spacious chalets of varying layouts offer private decks overlooking the Gulf of Nicoya, along with Jacuzzis, canopy beds and waterfall showers.

If you can stand to leave the chalet, there's a lovely shared den and breakfast nook, a terraced pool system and a relaxing spa, all connected by an elevated boardwalk. Your worldly host Jennifer has gone to great lengths to satisfy, constantly making small adjustments based on feedback.
