First I would like to say the customer service and communication was great at Rancho de Lelo. They did a great job suggesting activities around the area. The breakfast was delicious and property was beautiful. My kids loved spending time with the dogs. The view from the room was beautiful and calming. The negative is there was heavy rainfall while we were visiting and as a result the room felt very wet due to poor window and door insulation and condensation. All our items in the room felt damp. There were also bugs in the room that bit us. My kids had a hard time with this and spent most of the night awake and upset.

We love our stay. It was only one night but very memorable with the friendly staffs and the welcoming gift basket. We feel like staying at a family's home. Would definitely plan for a longer stay in the future.

The Rancho de Lelo was AMAZING! When we arrived, Beatriz was so kind to us and very helpful. She helped us planning activities and she recommended restaurants. It was probably the best welcome that we ever experienced at a hotel! The Rancho is located on a great property. It's beautiful, peaceful and very quiet! It's a family-owned hotel. They even have their own coffee plantation. The rooms are private "cabanas", so cabin style. The breakfast is delicious. The pool has nice clean natural water (no chlorine). There are very friendly dogs on the property and they were my son's trip highlight in Monteverde! The Rancho is located about 25 min from Santa Elena, the nearest town. The views from the town to the Rancho are absolutely stunning!

Cest un tres beau site,dans la nature et beaucoup d'oiseaux . Route pour sy rendre est ardue, on se demande si cest le bon chemin haha. La piscine est froide puisu'ils utilisent de l'eau des montagnes pour la re remplir a tous les jours. Quelques insectes a l'intérieur des chambres mais pas de moustiques. Personnel tellement accueillants et gentil. Déjeuner bon.

The owners were polite and kind. But it is a drive up into the mountains on a very bumpy gravel road, so make sure you have a good SUV not a car. Our room was not one of the photos that you see on Expedia so it truly wasn’t what we expected. It was clean and we did have what we needed (shower and bed), but we would not go back. The property is beautiful and with the walk up the gravel road allow us to see many birds which was pleasant and joyful. Also, if you are not a dog person, this property is not for you. You are constantly greeted and escorted by their dogs.

I wish staff and service had an option for six stars. This is a family run farm and B&B and the family is fantastic. Very helpful and friendly.
