Location: Montezuma in Costa Rica

Car: recommended
Montezuma is a long-time favorite for travelers in Costa Rica. The picturesque little town is famed for its bohemian flair and the stunning beauty of the surrounding nature. The town's center feels like the cozy open-air living room of the community where a continuous mellow party takes place. Just sit down in some bar or eatery and watch the scenery. The colorful stands of artists who are chatting and joking with their neighbors. Nestled into a landscape reflecting the tropical paradise Montezuma also draws eco-tourists and beach lovers. Tour operators in Montezuma offer a range of packages to nearby sights and activities. A day jaunt to the nearby Tortuga Islands including snorkeling in crystal-clear water and a barbecue at night. One kilometer out of Montezuma you can go on a canopy tour through a verdant river valley topped off by a waterfall, maybe you go scuba diving, sport fishing, kayaking, the choices are endless.

Family with 2 teenage girls in August

the lesswares devon, england
Review Submitted: September 2, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
*Good point about the location

The villa is right on the beach

The villa is set in a sizeable plot so it feels quite private.

Cabuya is very tranquil.

It is close by car to Montezuma which is buzzing and has many activities

Cabuya has several good restaurants and bars, a bakery, and 2 supermarkets which is essential if you are self-catering.

It is very near to the Cabo Blanco National Park which is stunning.

Good white sandy beaches are not too far away and one is within walking distance.

* Bad points

The beach in front of the villa is shingle and jagged rocks. Not great for swimming except at high tide.

In the rainy season, with all the mud from the rivers, the sea in front of the villa is rather murky and brown.

The beaches along this part of the peninsula can have bad rip currents and are not great for swimming especially for children.

You really need to hire a car if you want to make the most fo this area.

*Good points about the villa

It's very clean, spacious and tastefully decorated.

Masssive kitchen/diner.

It's very well equipped with all mod cons: aircon, cable TV, wireless internet, phone, microwave etc.

It's got 2 huge comfortable double beds (and sofa bed)

The caretaker (Jose) is very helpful and close on hand to fix any problems.

*Bad ponts

It could be constucted to a higher standard and seems to need constant maintenance from poor old Jose.

There is a half built grey block constuction right next to the villa with numerous "Clausurado" ("closed" ie built without authorisation) signs slapped on it. This spoils this aesthetically pleasing site.

We had no hot water for the first 3 days because the boiler had burnt out. Good old Jose fixed it though.

The upstairs shower leaks and wets the downstairs bedroom wall.

If you have the aircon on at night upstairs in the master bedroom, people downstairs can't sleep because it's too noisy.
The ceiling fans which could relieve this problem are noisy and ineffective.

There is no hot water in the kitchen.

The Kitchen sink was blocked most of the time we were there so we had to buy a washing up bowl and empty the water outside. (We had had enough of asking poor overworked Jose for help so we just put up with this minor inconvenience)

The aircon hot air outlet from next door blows across the downstairs terrace.




At the end of the day we had the best holiday and the good points far outweighed the bad ones.

My Favorite Place in Costa Rica

enigmax009 Cooper City, FL
Review Submitted: May 18, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
I stayed at the house for 3 nights with my family and it was truly one of my favorite places in Costa Rica. I've been going to Costa Rica for almost 5 years. We had a large pack of howler monkeys that would visit us every sunset. It is a short drive to Montezuma and Mal Pais, and it was nice to have a quiet place to relax after a day of adventuring. Thank You Neil for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home.

Relaxing Getaway

Darlene64 Rutland, VT, USA
Review Submitted: April 21, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
My husband and I were looking for a place, close to beautiful beaches where we could relax and enjoy our first getaway from our 2 1/2 year old twins and we definetly found it! We became friends with the groundskeeper who took us on a fishing tour and prepared us dinner right on the patio. MalPais and Montezuma are only short drives away. All the amenities of the house made it extremely comfortable (especially the king mattresses) and being in such a small village, we forgot about all the "problems" of the outside world. (Not having cable was actually a plus :)!

Many thanks,
Darlene and Scott

Nothing short of Magical

LANGOSTA! Rhode Island
Review Submitted: April 2, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
In my opinion there are two basic kinds of vacationers.

There are the typical tourists who want to fight for beach chairs on crowded beaches covered with pasty fat men scantily clad in speedos while being served crappy drinks with umbrellas,
or,
There are the people who want something special. Something beautiful, something unique. And most of all, not your typical, tourist-ridden same old same old crap.

So with that said, here is why I would recommend this rental house.
I loved the quiet, secluded location just outside Montezuma, one of the most delightful and interesting towns I had ever been too. Not to mention the local spots and restaurants in and around Cabuya, some within walking distance that are truly authentic and delicious.

Only a short drive down the road to beautiful sandy beaches with water clearer than anything I had ever seen. But best of all they were small and not crowded, some days having them almost completely all to yourself.

The house itself is also right on the beach, with a breathtaking view from the back porch. I have never been to a resort where I watched the sunset as howler monkeys passed by just above your head. The house is also comfortable and nicely furnished.

Oh, and how often do you have the caretaker and his adorable family go fishing for you every day and bring back lobster and fish and cook it for you on the beach? I have never eaten anything so fresh and delicious. I love a fancy seafood dinner, but nothing beats fish less than an hour out of the water prepared and grilled right before your eyes.

I could go on but the bottom line is if you want to enjoy nature, beauty, peace and quiet, beaches from heaven, and meeting other interesting travelers who have the same appreciation and respect for the local laid-back lifestyle, then this is for you.

Beautiful House and Surrondings! Highly Recommend

tstaff Boston, Ma
Review Submitted: April 2, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
Perfect place to stay if your looking for a beautiful, private place to relax, minutes away from a fun, and a great central location close to Montezuma and only 20 minutes from Mal Pais. Great for sightseeing, beach lovers, surfers and any one looking for peace and tranquility. The renter was very helpful, making himself accessible prior to and during the trip. The price of this rental is well worth the money and the pictures accurately show just how wonderful and unique the house really is!! This is my second time staying at this house and I plan on returning next year as well!
