It was the perfect spot for what we wanted to do during our stay. It was only a 5-10 min hike to the waterfalls which is free since we were guests there. The rooms were very clean and had fantastic views. Breakfast was great by the pool every morning. Definitely a hidden gem!

This place was such a pleasant surprise. We travelled all over Costa Rica, and while this certainly isn’t the most luxurious place you’ll stay in, it definitely has wonderful service and an overall great vibe. The owner is amazing, and was super helpful for us in getting back into town with our luggage to catch the ferry back. Speaking of which - if you’re walking from the town up the hill it’s a very steep walk, so be prepared! Excellent proximity to the waterfall with your own special entrance, your own private hanging bridge, and a fantastic brewery right next to the property to walk to. Overall, we’d happily stay here again!

Beautiful jungle retreat on the hill above Montezuma. Limited number of rooms, bright and airy. Clean, with mini fridge and a complete kitchen below an open air dining with a great ocean view patio where a nice breakfast was served daily. Laundry is available for a fee. Access is up a steep, potholed road just out of town. Turnoff to lodge is a narrow dirt with ample parking. A trail head leading to upper falls with swimming is right out the door. Staff is outstanding and the owner was from the State where I live. Some erosion control work was being done during our visit and only a minor distraction. Highly recommended if your in the Montezuma area.

Intimate small hotel with beautiful views of the ocean and tropical landscape (monkeys come visit you at the balcony). Staff and owner go beyond to make you feel at home. You do need a car (as there are no Ubers/taxi readily available). Access to the waterfall was a plus!

Tucked into the jungle it is definitely a Sanctuary. Monkeys and birds greet you along with an amazing view of the sunrise. A short walk to the water falls and Butterfly Brewery. The owner is a sweetheart and her hotel shows that. Everything about my stay was great

Excellent stay, cute and relaxing! Close to the waterfall, friendly helpful staff, very clean rooms and easy parking. Amazing breakfast. After reading some reviews we were a little worried about the place, but it was not the case. Would highly recommend this place.
If you are driving you can park right beside the hotel. If you are walking it would certainly be a trek, but the whole area is like that.

We loved the property itself however it was difficult getting into the parking as it is a very narrow dirt road with large bumps, the water was also not working and we needed tubs of water to flush, now sink water or shower water. Views were incredible!
