Lovely view, family friendly atmosphere. More like staying in someone’s house. The food was excellent. If you wanted choices, taxis were readily available and inexpensive. We hiked to the terribita and did some of the waterfall trails. Highly recommend if it is your style. My only wish would have been for better, faster coffee!

It is truly a dream hotel if your dream is to sleep amongst tropical birds and plants. It was incredible to wake up to hummingbirds, toucans, and parrots every day. The rooms are wonderful and the food is great. Strongly recommend

We had a magical stay at Casa Vista Alta. We stayed in the cabin, which is a bit of a distance from the lodge. I wouldn’t recommend it for folks that had mobility issues. However, the cabin was immersed in nature and conveyed a sense of serenity and Connection with the amazing jungle. The staff were kind the food delicious and I highly recommend this lodge.

The pros for this property are endless! The property and surrounding area are breathtaking. The staff go above and beyond to ensure a happy stay. A breakfast of fruit, fresh juice, coffee, eggs, bread and jam using high quality, local ingredients. We felt safe in Mindo and the property is located in between the town and the excursions. We opted for dinner and a bird watching tour, i highly recommend both!

the casa is up a road away from the town so you have to get a taxi to anywhere except the tarabita to the waterfalls. The environment is lush and beautiful. The room of the cabin was spacious and clean and comfortable. The first night I stayed there was an accident which knocked out power to Mindo for most of the day, I think the water heater was electric and thus there was no hot water. The staff were very nice and helpful. I did not take meals at the casa so can’t comment on the food.

We had a lovely stay at Casa de Vista Alta in Mindo. It's a gorgeous property in a stunning location, high up on a hill, surrounded by a bird-filled cloud forest. The views from the veranda (and balconies) are spectacular. The staff at the Casa were very friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed hanging out with the Casa's dog, Kyova. We spent one night in a room in the main house and the other night in a cabin. Breakfast was very tasty. We also ate dinner once at the main house -- tasty trout on the spacious veranda. We greatly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be returning.

Definitely Recommend!

This is a FANTASTIC property. Located in the mountains, the villas are nestled in the moutains with either forest views or valley views. The staff was amazing. It is a 45 minute walk from Mindo, or a $4.00 taxi. Less that 2Km walk from the hotel is the cable car over the valley to additional hikes and waterfalls. The staff were wonderful, food and wine were excellent, and many, many, many birds. Our guide Esther was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable. It is a great place!
