Hotel Belmar was one of the pioneers in the tourism development of the area. In the early 1980's there were only two Quaker pensions and a small hotel. Hotel Belmar started in 1985 with its first building (the Chalet) as a family style Guest House where its owners lived. The hotel was started by a Costa Rican-Chilean couple who came to Monteverde after living for many years in Europe . The Austrian Chalet architecture came from their memories of time spent in Austria . The second building, the Main Building , was built in 1991 because of the growth and demand of tourism, but always under the same concept of a small, family business in harmony with nature. Nowadays, the hotel is still managed by its owners and their children. |
