--- title: The Splendours of Monteverde | Ocotea Boutique Hotel (2) description: "Ocotea Boutique Hotel | Monteverde’s Hospitality and Tourism Industry is growing fast, and Karen and Valeria Fallas Monge, the Hotel’s owners, have been there from the very beginning. 25 + years of experience and a reputation for excellence has made them leaders in the field.\n\nKaren was not born in Monteverde. However, her father came to the region just a year after she was born. He worked on a dairy farm. And later on, her mother began working as a cleaning maid for the different scientific organizations that first came to research the incredible diversity and unique environment of Monteverde. Hence, she grew up surrounded by wild nature, yes, but more importantly, she developed in an atmosphere of highly educated people from all over the world that came to enjoy or study the breathtaking cloud forests of the region.
