Lodge Review: Cala Lodge, Monteverde, Costa Rica

Cala Lodge was built on three acres of property or 1.2 hectares of forest right next to the world renowned Children’s Eternal Rain Forest which has an area of 52.800 acres and it is the largest private reserve of Central America.

What I really love about this place is that even though it is a short walk from town, it’s still in the cloud forest and feels like it’s out in the bush miles from anywhere.  The views are amazing and we saw hummingbirds, toucans and other birds on the property.  The staff are really nice & helpful!  Rates are very reasonable and you get a choice of cooked breakfasts in the morning, nice pancakes!

I must have accidentally messed up the white balance but those are toucans!
