Finca Aquarius

I really want to thank the host, Jan, for being very kind and helpful. He made our short stay stress free. The property was stunning! I loved waking up in the morning and seeing the beautiful mountain and the smelling the clean, fresh air. Since we had a lot of activities plan in Monteverde town, it took us alot longer to drive since the roads very unpaved and rocky. Therefore, I recommend you give yourself ample time to travel to your excursion because you need to go a little slow due to the bumpy roads. Overall, it was a great stay, can I recommend this property on who needs peace and tranquility.

Our first week here truly felt like stepping into another world. The open space, the endless mountain views, and the way nature surrounds you gently remind you to slow down and simply breathe. I’m not a morning person, but every single morning we were woken up by the sweetest little bird — and I found myself smiling before I even got out of bed. Opening my eyes to rolling green mountains and complete stillness felt magical. It wasn’t just a beautiful view; it was a full reconnection — to nature, to ourselves, and to something bigger. The room itself was incredibly comfortable and cozy — a perfect retreat after a day of exploring. Falling asleep to the sounds of nature and waking up to that peaceful view made it feel like a true sanctuary. What made our stay even more special was our host. He was incredibly generous with his time, sharing hidden roads and local spots we would have never discovered on our own. Beyond being a wonderful host, he is also a life coach, and his warm, grounded energy made the entire experience even more meaningful. From the moment we met him, we felt lucky to have found such a special place. This wasn’t just a trip — it was one of the most relaxing and rewarding experiences of our lives. If you are looking for an authentic Monteverde mountain stay, a peaceful eco-retreat, or a place to truly reconnect with nature, this is it. Highly recommended.

Everything was incredible! Pure beauty and magic! Thank you so much to Jan and his family for the generous and warm hospitality! Words cannot do this amazing place justice. You have to experience it!

Finca Aquarius is a very special place to visit. It is not your “normal” hotel. You feel at home immediately and are welcomed by the owner Jan, his family and lovely pack of dogs. He and his family are so friendly, you can just simple be and enjoy the incredible mountainview, or have great conversations about live, work in the garden, cook or even become “Senor Fermentino” and ferment vegetables from the own garden. Around the finca there are many things to do like horseback riding and bird watching (do so with Diana and Kai!).
