We loved the Monte Carlo condos. The condo was large and luxurious, the manager was always very quick to reply to any questions both before and after our trip, and the guard at the gate made a point of knowing your name and always greeting you. The complex is small but a lush tropical paradise. The location was perfect. You were just off of the main street so you had no noise, but were able to easily walk to great restaurants, grocery stores, Fish market, etc. of all of the places we stayed in Costa Rica, this condo was our favorite. It was very clean, stocked decently, and was actually very big. The veranda was also huge and overlooked a beautiful pool and the lush foliage. We loved our time there and hope to return soon.
