The sustainability concept of the hotel. Farm to table to farm. That's the way it should be done. Hotel Belmar stands out as an example how to operates in a sustainable way in this business.

This place is beautiful. We had the most outstanding sunsets just outside our window. It is isolated and you need a car. Staff are kind and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Expect to be woken up by a burro with an attitude!

Lots to do and see
Cloud forest is impressive especially in Santa Elena National Park. Walking around misty forest for hours is so calming. Monteverde cloud forest offers amazing views of the whole area. Santa Elena town is fine, just few restaurants and nothing else.
Monteverde is busy. Titally geared up for tourists. Don’t expect there to be clouds in the national Parks; we went there to walk in the cloud forest but there wasn’t a cloud in the sky! The last hour of the journey there is on extremely bumpy gravel.
