Rancho de Lelo Ecolodge is a family owned small lodge, located about 20 minutes from the main area of Monte Verde. We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay with this charming family. The National Park is only 10-15 minutes drive. The farm to table cuisine was awesome. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic time at Rancho De Lelo, staying for two nights with our three kids. This ecolodge, located just outside Monteverde, is truly special. While the rooms are basic, they have everything you need for a comfortable stay. Sitting on the balcony at night, listening to the sounds of nature, was a magical experience, especially with the kids. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, even when we were a bit nervous about driving back after sunset. The food was outstanding! You have to try their dinner menu (shoutout to the chef! The fried Tilapia is a must). The property is well-kept, with a lovely little pool and a great soccer field for some family fun. Just keep in mind that the only access is via a gravel road, so in the rainy season, a 4x4 vehicle is recommended. Overall, it was a wonderful stay that our whole family will cherish, and I highly recommend it. Thank you, Rancho De Lelo, for adding to our Costa Rica adventure!

This is a very special ecolodge because the Mata family cares deeply about their home, the land, and their guests. They are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The rooms are beautiful and peaceful. The grounds are serene. The farm to table food is excellent. The drive to Monte Verde cloud forest and nearby town of Santa Elena is a fun drive on a well maintained gravel road through beautiful mountain passes and villages. If you are looking to have a special Tico experience near Monte Verde, this is the place. We hope to come back!

Nous avons adoré notre séjour au Rancho de Lelo. La famille qui gère cet établissement est très sympathique et accueillante. La cabine était parfaite pour notre famille de 5. Nous avons apprécié le calme de cet endroit. Nos enfants ont adoré le terrain de soccer, les arbres fruitiers, les petits chiens et les excellents jus préparés maison. Il faut avoir un véhicule pour s’y rendre car c’est un peu éloigné mais ça vaut le déplacement!

Felt like staying with friends!
Great stay, lovely family run Ecolodge. The food at the onsite restaurant was delicious. We had the whole fried tilapia, and smoked pork dinners. As well as an amazing huge breakfast with delicious fresh fruit, rice and beans and eggs and coffee. Our casita was equipped with everything we needed to cook. Plenty of room, deeply relaxing to have the windows open and watch the birds. We saw a toucan and a hummingbird, there are coffee plants and banana plants and orchids growing right outside the door. They had excellent suggestions for tours, restaurants and the best places to stop and watch the sunset. The lodge is about 25 minutes drive outside Santa Elena, it’s a pretty drive with a couple incredible views. One afternoon we just relaxed at the lodge, sat with our legs in the spring fed pool, watched the birds and played with the dogs.

We enjoyed our stay and think you probably will too. This assumes you are comfortable with a family run operation and you can manage a little mountain driving to get there. Oh, and they have some dogs. The cabin was comfortable, the food was good and the property is nice. Also, as mentioned the staff are helpful and terrific. Beautiful area and the price was reasonable.

Rancho de Lelo was a wonderful place to stay as a family of 4. Our hosts were very hospitable. The food was amazing at breakfast and dinner. The kids loved the natural spring fed pool (a little cool, but didnt bother our Canadian kids!). The cabin was clean and well kept. It is a bit off the beaten path, but we had no issues finding it and didnt mind the 25 minute drive to the Monteverde activities.

It was a great stay here, the family is wonderful. They have a lot of dogs on the property which gave us a lot of joy. Bronco is the lead German Shepherd and he’s very friendly. Their restaurant serves good food, breakfast and dinner were delicious. The cabins are nice and relaxing. Who ever you talk to before arriving will try to warn you not to follow google maps, we didn’t listen and got to cross the river without a bridge. Again, they warned us and it was our fault, it worked out because we had a SUV. My advice is to put in your map Monteverde Reserve Cloud Forest, and then when you get near there, then put in Rancho de Lelo. That way you’ll avoid an insanely steep mountainside road that requires crossing a river. It’s a good story for us and added to our enjoyment of our time here.

My partner and I recently had the most incredible experience at Rancho de Lelo , nestled in the heart of the Costa Rican rainforest. From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in the serene beauty of the lush surroundings and the warm hospitality of the staff. The lodge itself is a true gem, seamlessly blending with its natural environment. Our secluded cabin was beautifully appointed, offering breathtaking views of the mountain range and the soothing sounds of wildlife all around us. We felt a world away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, yet we were still treated to great amenities and exceptional service. Every meal at the lodge was a culinary delight, featuring fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a delightful fusion of Costa Rican flavors. One of the highlights of our stay was driving up to Monte Verde. From hikes through the jungle to some really cool local shops and restaurants there. What truly sets them apart is the genuine care and attention to detail provided by the staff. From the moment we made our reservation to the day we departed, they went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was great!

This property was very nice with clean and high quality cabins and a great breakfast and environment. There were beautiful ponds with fish surrounded with coconut trees and a variety of other plants. However, ensure you drive to this property from Sta. Elena road and go north, this is a smoother and shorter route. DO NOT go south from 606, the road there is very rough and rocky.

Awful Experience
The owners closed the kitchen to guests and we discovered that when we arrived at dusk. They expected us to drive 45-60 minutes to the nearest restaurant in the dark and torrential downpours. The ranch is located at the bottom of an extremely steep 4x4 road (20 minutes from Monteverde). It’s very difficult to access and very inconveniently located. This was the worst experience of our trips throughout Costa Rica.

Quiet spot
Cute little cabins with a small deck and sliding glass door. Beds were comfortable. There is no air conditioning, but they did supply a fan which helped. It was about 15 minute drive on a rough dirt road to Monteverde cloud forest biological reserve, which meant it was quiet and peaceful. Included breakfast was delicious with options such as typical Tico breakfast, eggs and toast, or pancakes. The pool is tiny. Staff were super responsive. They run their own tilapia farm here. We ate at the onsite restaurant for dinner. A bit pricey but we watched them bring our fish fresh from the farm. Can't beat the freshness!

This was one of our favorite places in Costa Rica. An amazing property in the valley surrounded by the beauty of the mountains. The family that runs the place is so friendly, yet professional. We had to leave on a tour before breakfast, they made a sandwich and cut fruit to take with us. We also went on a night tour with Joseph, who also lives on the farm. It was by far the most informative tour, and we saw so many animals from toucans to vipers to sloths, and of course we’re blessed by the quetzal. The kids adored Bronco, the german Sheppard that slept outside our cabin window and greeted us daily. He is one of the smartest and nicest dogs we ever met. So connected with nature, your soul just opens up! A definite must when in Monte Verde.

Séjour agréable et paisible
Lodge très confortable et agréable. En revanche, la piscine n'était pas utilisable lors de notre séjour, et surtout il faut savoir le ranch est très éloigné des réserves de Monteverde/Santa Elena (difficile d'accès, la route est très pentue et endommagée, il faut un 4x4), impossible de faire les nights tours car ils ne viennent pas vous chercher au ranch. Personnel très arrangeant, notamment pour les petits déjeuners à emporter tôt le matin. Le restautant est délicieux, mention spéciale pour le poisson pêché à la minute.

We also had dinner at their restaurant twice and got to catch our own tilapia which was a fun ending to the day. It is a bit from town (which was great in many ways). If you are looking for a farm to table echo resort, in a very safe and tucked away location, this is a fantastic option.

We are a family with 2 kids (5 & 10) and stayed at the farm for 2 nights. The facility was very nice for the price. The room is rather small though and the bathroom is tiny. The pros are definitely the staff, everyone was extremely nice and accommodating. They contacted us ahead of time and were waiting at the gate by the time we arrived. The food at the restaurant was delicious and inexpensive. The main con was the road, it’s bad. When I was reading the reviews everyone mentioned that the road was bumpy, it’s also a serpentine so if you have a weak stomach I suggest to think twice about staying there. It’s about 30-40 mins drive from all the main attractions which wouldn’t be a problem if the roads weren’t that bad.
