Representing excellent value for money in Monteverde, the Trapp Family Lodge is a friendly and comfortable place to stay. One of the closest lodges to the Monteverde cloud forest reserve itself, the lodge’s location means you will need to take a taxi if you wish to visit the town, but the tranquillity here will appeal to those looking to immerse themselves in nature. The rooms and communal areas of the hotel are constructed in a charming wooden chalet style and are situated around hilly grounds. The higher altitude here means you should pack plenty of warm layers and ask for extra blankets if you are feeling the cold in the sometimes chilly evenings in the cloud forest.
