Fonda Vela Hotel
Monteverde, Costa Rica

Picture
Dedicated to the idea of eco-tourism in harmony with the earth, the Latin root “Fonda” means a place of rest or nourishment after a long journey. “Vela” or candle, for us represents service and good faith. To this  add peaceful atmosphere that is sensitive to the local environment.

Picture
Seven buildings are scattered about the landscaped property, and are designed with the natural lighting, privacy and warmth in mind. They all have huge windows with views of the forested reserve allowing the beauty outside to be a part of the cozy interior.


The Fonda Vela has 38 rooms in 7 separate buildings, which include 18 standard rooms, 20 junior suites. All rooms have private bath, hot water and 2 queen size beds. The suites have a small refrigerator, tables, balcony, queen-size bed on the main floor and a loft with a single bed. All of the rooms are wheelchair accessible.

On the 35-acre property, you will find the lush forests and verdant pastures excellent for birding and hiking. In this tranquil setting, you may see flocks of parrots come to feed in the fruit trees while riding horses graze peacefully below. A 15-minute walk away is the world famous 10,500-hectare Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, which incorporates eight tropical life zones. The Santa Elena Reserve is a short drive away, where on a clear day you may observe vistas of the Caribbean lowlands and Arenal Volcano.


Throughout the Fonda Vela you will find the paintings of Paul Smith, the owners’ father and original settler of the property. These, and works by other Monteverde artists display many interpretations of the mysterious cloud forest with its veils of mist – encouraging the mind to mediate the meaning of peaceful living with the planet.
