Casa Batsu

Top choice in Monteverde & Santa Elena


Carlos and Paula remodeled their family farmhouse, filled it with art, jazz and delicious food, and then opened their doors to share the love. Five rooms are furnished with pillow-strewn beds and striking stone showers. You’ll enjoy the decadent breakfasts, for sure, but do make a reservation for dinner one night (mains US$25 to US$30 with a drink included), as Carlos is an amazing chef.

Batsu is the indigenous Bribrí word for hummingbird.
