Architecture Alpine beauty in the forest
A blend of heritage and modernity, the building was originally constructed in 1985, but was expanded in 1991 and again in 2017, with new suites and a more contemporary design complementing the original architecture. An extensive use of natural wood, subdued earth tones, and large floor-to-ceiling windows bring in light and connect one directly with the forest.
Interior design NAAS Interior Culture
Each room is designed to feel serene, with warm earth tones and floor-to-ceiling windows opening to private balconies. The property draws from its Alpine chalet architecture while embracing Costa Rican craftsmanship and regenerative design. Natural woods, stone, hand-carved locally crafted furnishings, and organic fabrics are central, creating spaces that feel both timeless and deeply connected to place. Interiors have a midcentury-modern influence, drawing from tropical and mountainous elements to contextualize it.
Sustainability Farm to table
Hotel Belmar champions sustainability through farm-to-table practices, renewable energy, and water conservation. It was the first hotel in Monteverde certified as carbon neutral. Its farm was also the first in Costa Rica to receive the same certification.
Activities Full immersion
Restaurante Celajes Pure local
Restaurante Celajes serves farm-to-table cuisine and cocktails made with organic ingredients from the hotel’s gardens and farm. Seasonal menus highlight edible plants, artisanal fermentations, and creative plant-based options, while sustainable ingredients pay homage to Costa Rica's agrarian traditions. Cervecería Belmar offers a more casual approach while staying true to hotel's farm-to-table concept and culinary philosophy.
