Could not be better

This is our second stay at Casa Mia. We love the setting and the house fits us perfectly. From our balcony we could see lots and lots of birds, even a troupe of monkeys came through to entertain us. Oscar and his wife are great hosts. Fresh flowers in the house! Fresh eggs and a loaf of bread were enough for two breakfasts for the four of us. Comfy beds. Can’t ask for more! We’ll be back again.

Such a great, quiet spot outside Monteverde with nice touches for its guests. Recommend a high clearance vehicle to get around the area to explore all it has to offer!

Costa Rica wildlife vacation

Comfortable, fun house with an absolutely incredible view of the forest. The porches are perfect rain or shine and the extended yard down the trail is great for observing birds and butterflies. Felt immersed in the countryside. Close enough to town that going out is relatively quick and easy. Road into the house was in good shape.

Very very special place to stay

My wife and two teenage girls had a wonderful time at this special place. The house was well-outfitted, and there was space for all of us. The location cant be beat. You really feel like you're somewhere special and out of the way, but the drive into town and around to attractions was easy.

Gem in Monteverde

Lovely home on spectacular piece of property with trees and a stream right outside. A very rough road to get to the home taking 15 minutes from town. That was the only issue with the property. Otherwise it was perfect and the hosts left fresh bread, preserves and flowers. Thank you!

Great location and very nice house in the cloud forest. Great host, very quick to respond to our inquiries. Of all the place we stayed in Costa Rica, this was easily our favorite. We would have stayed more than 2 days if we would have known!

We will be back

Wonderful home!! Perfect for two couples. Comfortable and well maintained! Best part was the setting. Beautiful, peaceful and lovely! We enjoyed walking the trails around the home and watching the birds from the decks off the bedrooms. Short drive to Santa Elena and plenty of restaurants closer. Kitchen was small but workable with 2 burner induction system & toaster oven.

Wonderful Guest House

Great location if you don’t mind the 10 minute drive into Santa Elena. So peaceful and many hummingbirds and butterflies in the beautiful gardens. The house had everything you needed and it was clean and comfortable. A perfect 3 day holiday in the mountains.

Beautiful private home in Monteverde

Nestled in the cloud forest, this beautiful well-appointed home was perfect for our 3 days in Monteverde. Oscar was easy to communicate with before and during our trip. We arrived to find fresh eggs and delicious homemade bread in the kitchen. It was a quick drive into town, close to attractions and restaurants. It was hard to leave this wonderful place! Thank you, Oscar for a memorable stop on our CR adventure!

Wonderful

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful property in the cloud forest. We only stayed 3 nights and the weather was cloudy and rainy most of the time but that’s why they call it the cloud forest. The property was a short drive from town, beautiful view and full of flowers and birds. The owners left us fresh eggs and bread and lovely fresh flowers. Would highly recommend and would definitely return.

This place is magic. The large windows. The decks. The incredibly efficient use of space. The cozy decor. Perfect. I wish I could of stayed longer. If I ever needed a getaway to completely unplug - this would be my destination. Loved it.

A slice of heaven in the cloud forest.

The pictures for Casa Mia do not do it justice. The property is nestled down a quiet dirt road and surrounded by nature. The views were incredible. There is a stream that runs thru the property that plays its own symphony while you sleep. The balcony wraps around 2 sides of the house making it easy to sit outside and explore the wildlife amongst the trees. A property close by had cattle that grazed on a nearby field that you could enjoy watching through the trees. We were greeted by a beautiful woodpecker in the morning, there are hummingbirds galore to see and a wide array of other birds and critters to keep your eyes wandering. Highly recommend having binoculars on hand. We toured Cafe Monteverde coffee farm and give it high praises as well. Hanging bridges is a must, WITH a tour guide. Any of the trail walks are best with a guide as they see what we don’t. Come prepared for it to be colder in the mountains, bring mosquito wipes with deets, they worked very well. Oscar and his wife made sure we got there safe and stayed in communication with us throughout our stay. We felt safe the entire time. It was a pleasant surprise to see that they provided with fresh eggs, coffee and a loaf of bread in the kitchen. We were sad to leave this little slice of heaven in the clouds.
