There are also unique opportunities for the observation of endemic trees and the exuberant wildlife that characterize Monteverde, plus a great quantity and variety of local birds

“Jaguarundi Jungle Lodge feels deeply embedded in Monteverde's cloud forest; howler monkeys greeted someone right in the parking lot, which already says a lot about the experience you can expect. The cabins offer a truly immersive rainforest stay with the town still within easy reach; it's a good blend of convenience and nature. If the idea of a peaceful, walkable jungle escape appeals, this could be a solid choice.”
