Hotel Fonda Vela

The Fonda Vela Hotel is located in beautiful Monteverde, famous for its Resplendent Quetzals, Three-wattled Bellbirds, an abundance of orchids, and a gorgeous cloud forest. The climate is refreshing, many times referred to as "eternal spring". The views of the Gulf of Nicoya from the hotel’s 1,400 meter elevation are spectacular. Monteverde is an ideal destination for relaxing and enjoying the wonders of the tropics. New wooden and concrete buildings have been built along the mountainside and are surrounded by gardens, birds and sunlight.  Their rooms are cozy, yet elegant and spacious.  Each one is designed with the environment in mind and large windows help to bring the outdoors inside.  They also have a conference hall, a lounge, Canopy Bar and their own stables for horseback riding.  Their restaurant prepares typical Costa Rican and international meals, which you can enjoy in the sun-lit dining room or on the balcony.
