Stay details

Overview

Casa Monita is a thoughtfully designed eco-home in La Ecovilla, near San Mateo, Costa Rica. Set in a peaceful hillside community, it offers a calm and nature-connected stay for guests who want to slow down, recharge, and enjoy a more grounded experience surrounded by tropical greenery. It is especially well suited to travellers looking for a blend of privacy, comfort, and community. 

The Space

The home combines rustic warmth with a practical, well-considered layout, creating a stay that feels both cosy and comfortable. Rather than feeling like a standard rental, Casa Monita offers a more personal atmosphere designed for relaxing, settling in, and enjoying the natural surroundings at an unhurried pace. 

The Setting

One of Casa Monita’s standout qualities is its setting within an edible landscape of tropical plants and fruit trees, including banana, pineapple, avocado, lemon, and jackfruit. Guests can also enjoy the wider La Ecovilla experience, including community events and wellness activities, the infinity pool, and the weekly farmers market held at the sister property in Ecovilla San Mateo. Guests staying over a Saturday also receive a weekly basket of produce from the community’s permaculture garden. 

Ideal For

A great fit for couples, small families, remote workers, and nature-loving travellers who appreciate eco-conscious spaces and a slower pace of travel.

Good to Know

This stay is best suited to guests who enjoy natural surroundings, community living, and a peaceful hillside setting. The experience here is less about polished resort energy and more about comfort, nature, and feeling connected to the landscape around you.

Is this stay a good fit?

Best suited for
Couples, small families, and remote workers drawn to a calm, nature-connected stay inside La Ecovilla — guests who'd enjoy an edible landscape of fruit trees (banana, pineapple, avocado, lemon, jackfruit), access to the community's infinity pool and wellness activities, and a slower, more grounded pace of travel than a polished resort experience.
Not ideal for
Guests seeking a glossy, resort-style stay or a fast-paced home base for sightseeing — Casa Monita's appeal is its quieter, more personal hillside setting and unhurried rhythm, described in its own listing as 'less about polished resort energy and more about comfort, nature, and feeling connected to the landscape.'
