Very nice hotel, beautifully decorated, beds and pillows very comfortable. We only stayed one night but it was a pleasure. Staff was very professional and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. Appreciated that you ordered off a menu and not just a buffet. But. They also had buffet items out like cereal, fruit and bread. Overall wonderful experience.
David
Really enjoyed our stay at the Sibu. Excellent location, walking distance to main shopping area, short driving distance to many attractions and parks.
Well maintained, modern and comfortable rooms. Attention to detail, it had everything we needed. The decor and grounds well maintained. Excellent staff service. Breakfast included was delicious, order off a menu.
Highly recommend, would stay again

This place was top notch! Absolutely immaculate! Drinks on arrival; delicious inclusive breakfast with made to order meals, along with buffet in a gorgeous restaurant, with friendly and attentive staff. Can walk to downtown off of hill. Not all rooms have air, but mild temps made it tolerable.
And, just the most beautifully manicured garden setting. A real deal for price point. Would definitely stay again.

Room had no ac which we knew but there was and no air flow got very hot
Shelda
Can’t say enough about the hotel. It was a wonderful stay and we will recommend to friends and family!
Claudio
The hotel it’s in a good location, the breakfast was great. I think they can improve the amenities, but overall good choice.
Sandra
The grounds, rooms, food, and amenities at Sibu Lodge were exceptional. The property is beautifully maintained, and overall it was a wonderful place to stay.
Service, however, was inconsistent. Our breakfast and lunch servers were very good—Marilynne, in particular, stood out for her warmth and attentiveness.
Unfortunately, our dinner experience was quite the opposite. Both Eric and Katherine appeared preoccupied with paperwork, and we were largely ignored throughout the meal. At one point, a fly landed in one of our water glasses. When Katherine eventually came to the table, we informed her. She removed the glass, but despite our request for a replacement and a refill for the table, she did not return for nearly 20 minutes. There was no apology or acknowledgment, which came across as dismissive and unprofessional.
This was especially disappointing given how much we were otherwise enjoying our stay. With more consistent service, particularly during dinner, the overall experience would have been outstanding.

We stayed at this property fot two nights. It was clean and beautifully landscaped and decorated. Would highly recommend!
As an added bonus, if you book a spa treatment (at a sister property) you can use the hottub and pool area for free. Not sure if that's available without a spa treatment.
Also, the restaurant was quite good. Breakfast was tasty and included. And Erick took great care of us for dinner.

Beautiful boutique hotel. Food was excellent and the staff was amazing - especially Erick and Sofia. Would definitely stay again.
Erica
I read so many reviews when planning our first trip to Costa Rica and so I hope this review helps someone!
We were a couple and two teenage girls and we stayed two nights. We felt extremely safe. We met the owner, Suzzana, multiple times and she is not only kind, but an excellent listener. All the staff seem hand picked for their exceptionalism. I wish I could name each one here, as they often greeted me by name each day. Our room and bathroom were pristine and the grounds… oh the grounds! So beautiful with winding pathways and a lot of places around to sit and relax. Hammocks and chairs out by the beach, which was Zero waves, very calm and warm. We did the tour they offer and we left and returned from the hotel beach- how convienant is that? We did the excursion which was a boat ride, lunch, Isla tortuga, snorkel and also seeing the bioluminescence, which may be a highlight experience of my life. The lunch was so good that we asked them to make the same food and had it to go the next day when we needed to drive back to San Jose.
Comfortable beds, hot shower water, beautiful and peaceful. The pool was also a highlight for us. We were in there each day.
I’m trying to think if I have anything I didn’t like and I would say, if you have many food allergies they do try but this might not be the best spot for you. Also I did end up using my own shampoo/conditioner since they have only an all-in-one s/c/body wash. The a/c worked great. I sincerely hope we get to return! Thank you!

The good: The lobby and the hotel is actually beautiful. The owner-designer has done a pretty good job there.
The OK:
1) No pool
2) Nothing much for kids to do on the property
3) Breakfast for vegetarians is fruits. Upon asking the previous night, the next day they served rice-beans burrito.
People, learn to accommodate those who don't want to harm animals.
4) Extremely tiny rooms

Very Clean and close to everything . We stayed for 2 days with family and they have sister hotel where we can use pool / hot tub and spa . Will definitely come back and stay at Sibu
carolyn
We had a very nice visit the 4 days we stayed. We booked 3 large rooms with Expedia with much better pricing than directly from hotel. The place is charming and peaceful. The cleaning is not consistent and they don’t have enough white towels as I was told to provide everyday. The front desk Diego and Francisco can improve customer service skills. Francisco specially was not very pleasant. I also tried to booked with him for August for an upcoming visit with family and parents but he told me he could not offer rooms or pricing because it was 2 months in advanced. I could easily book on Expedia. Francisco needs some customer service skills.

Room was clean, Staff were super. Food was good. Missed the hot tub - never saw it. One minor suggestion would be to install even the smallest of space heaters into the rooms to help take the chill and dampness out on those cool nights and mornings. It was about 15C during our visit.

Clean room with great amenities. Lovely property in a great location. Parking was easy. Good breakfast. Our family had a great experience and would stay here again.
Jonathan
Fabulous hotel with great staff and excellent restaurant. Room was very nice and spotless. The bed and bedding was excellent. The breakfast was excellent and the Capiwo Beef Tenderloin is the best tenderloin in all of Costa Rica. The grounds of Sibu were well maintained and very attractive. The location is convenient on a paved road.
Imola
Pancake was not soft rather dried out and imlett wasn’t warm either! Options were limited
Harpa
Beautiful hotel and great staff
Rachna
Breakfast was good. Room was nice and comfortable. Too much wind noise
MIchelle
We loved everything about our stay at Sibu Boutique hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly. The hotel is very well maintained and thoughtfully designed. Monteverde can be very windy, however we had a finished balcony that was protected from the wind by glass, so it was easy to enjoy the outdoor space despite weather conditions. The restaurant was excellent, with a cooked to order breakfast included in your stay. Also included were beer, wine, drinks and snacks in our room. Literally everything we needed was taken care of.
Dean
The room was heavily scented in air freshener, but the staff corrected the issue to the best of their abilities. Sophia in the restaurant was outstanding! 5 stars for her service!!!
Michael
Great location. Center downtown. Easy access to restaurants and night walk. Simple but well kept rooms. Great balconies.
John
Excellent service and accomodations. Highly recommend
Emily
Excellent!
Brett
The whole place was one on the cleanest place ever stayed at. Staff was excellent-greeted you each day - made you feel welcomed- a luxury place in near the rain forest! Great!!
Tuhin
Lovely grounds but location was rough as it’s on a hill, roads are bad, parking is very limited. But the parking attendant was very helpful and friendly even though he didn’t speak English and we knew limited Spanish. The rooms were great and the best part (but on the smaller scale) - otherwise highly recommended. The restaurant service was horrible as they did not give coffee and tea for 20 minutes! Our food came out at 45 minutes after order was placed (just omelets and pancakes) and was cold! Other than 1 waitress, there was no one to talk to. When we spoke with the hotel manager, she said “oh! Is that so?” But did not apologize nor say it would be addressed. We just gave up and ate breakfast elsewhere in town for the next 2 days even though we had free breakfast option. So it is with ambivalence that we stayed at this hotel (for the cozy rooms and few nice people) but not for everything. If you want to be close to town, then this is a good place to make as your home base but be aware.

Gary
wonderful place
Rodolfo
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This beautiful hotel is small, quiet and elegant. The forest rooms opened to beautiful landscape with a small patio to sit. The included breakfast was made to order and the dinner was fabulous. Lastly, the hotel reception was super attentive; one afternoon we needed a taxi from a soda and I just messaged them on Whatsapp and they took care of it.
Maurice
Nice place awesome staff
Anne
The room was very clean and comfortable. The mini bar items were gratuitous and a welcome addition. The bed was very comfortable and the grounds were immaculate. The staff were all friendly and met our needs. The included breakfast was filling and service was very good. We also had dinner twice there during our stay. The food and service were excellent. I would highly recommend this hotel. It is in the center walking distance to downtown area with shops and restaurants.

Lovely chic unique modern hotel. Online check in, restaurant on site, breakfast included. Our room was in the rear of the hotel. We walked a winding pathway outside, past the restaurant and to our duplex room with cute chairs in a covered porch. Clean and bright room.
Amrutraj
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this charming property. The reception and bar/restaurant teams were unfailingly courteous and attentive. The tasteful design and inviting atmosphere instantly make you feel at home and encourage a sense of relaxation. Conveniently located near the town center, it offers the perfect balance—close enough for a somewhat short hike, yet tucked away enough to feel removed from the bustle (such as it is in this quiet hillside town). The short walk to the center is scenic, though a touch steep. An added delight is the afternoon happy hour at the bar—a thoughtful detail that rounds out the experience beautifully. It wasn’t an issue for me at the time of the year that I visited, but some rooms don’t have air conditioning and it could be an issue during warm/hot days.
David
All aspects of the stay were excellent
Kathryn
Wonderful stay in the clouds
Sibu was a beautiful property with clean, cozy rooms and a great restaurant on site. Loved the access to Poco a Poco for the covered pool during rainy afternoons. Hotel grounds were beautiful and lots of cozy nooks to spend time in. Wonderful included breakfast. Highly recommend!
John
We really enjoyed our stay at Sibu. It is a short (but steep) walk into Santa Elena. The hotel itself is very nice and modern and offers a great made-to-order breakfast. Service is also excellent

The property is amazing. The service was great.
Dawn
Sibu Lodge is absolutely beautiful. The grounds and common areas are well-kept, and the room was lovely. There was a small fridge and we received a complimentary half-bottle of wine. We had happy hour drinks and food at the restaurant, and a lovely breakfast was provided. The town was about a 10-minute walk, so accessible, but the return trip to the hotel was very steep. The staff at the hotel set up our reservations for a zip line tour and a coffee farm tour, and we were able to include transportation for both activities. This is a lovely hotel, and I highly recommend it.
Jackie

Natarajan
The rooms had a cottage feel but located close to each other . Our family in 3 rooms were able to get together in the nicely apointed lobby and the 2 restaurants. These places were tastefully decorated with very exquisite artefacts. It was also conveniently located close to santa Elena town where many dining options were available at a walking ditance.
The staff were very friendly, courteous and professional The food was very tasty.
Overall our family enjoyed staying at Sibu lodge
