I spent 2 nights at La Pradera in January 2013 as part of a 7 day trip to Costa Rica. This was by far the best value accommodation that I experienced. The cottage was spacious, very comfortable, clean and had a fabulous view of the countryside. The staff were courteaous and helpful too. Highly recommend La Pradera.

the family was so helpful in making plans for our time in Santa Elena. The property was beautiful. The cabins are simple, clean and comfortable. Helps to have a car but its walkable if needed. All the tours pick you up at the hotel. We enjoyed the kitchen and walking the grounds.

My family stayed 9 nights here recently. We wanted something moderately priced and away from the hustle and bustle of Santa Elena and Monteverde. This is the perfect place which offers kitchen facilities and spacious bedrooms to accompany large families such as ours. The owners and hosts, Jenny and Raphael are very friendly and helpful with calling taxis when we... More

We have stayed in Cabanas La Pradera twice in the past two years for a total of three weeks. It is a very quiet place away from town that is perfect for nature lovers and people who like to prepare their own meals. Jenny and Raphael and their children, Melissa and Anthony, are wonderful hosts who make us feel like... More

We just spent 3 nights at La Pradera. It was just great: clean and confortable cabins with a well equiped kitchen. The cabins are spread out so everyone has privacy. The view over the hills is nice and relaxing. The pool is small but big enough for kids. The gardens are well maintained. Frendly staff. Not far from down town,... More

We were 2 couples exploring the Cloud Forest and we spent 2 nights at Cabanas. What a wonderful, peaceful place to stay. It's a 4 minute drive from the noisy 'downtown' with the clearest view of the hills and sky you could ever ask for. Beautiful gardens too. Anthony, the wonderful English speaking son of the owners, was so helpful... More

This was our second trip here - and for good reasons. First, the cabins are well equipped if you need a kitchen. They are very open and roomy, yet quaint and relaxing. We liked how you were able to park right next to the cabin. Our favorite was the trail around the property - really nice! The owners did not... More
