Breathtaking view of the ocean right in front of the hostel. Staff were very helpful too!
Sometimes the kitchen and bathrooms are dirty. Lizard droppings can be found on chairs in the common area.

The location and the furniture.
Little bit warm during the night, because there's no AC, only fans so it's okey.

There was a good atmosphere at the property with friendly fellow guests. Cooking facilities were available and there was a nice view out to sea with natural pool in the rocks nearby
We were in the private room which had a terrible shower (water came out above the shower head rather than through it which created bad water flow), only one of the two fans worked (otherwise $7 for air con per night), the lockable storage was full of ants. The room is tired and needs an update

Property was very very beautiful! Walking distance to town and a pretty waterfall that you can swim at the bottom of, for free!!
Small town so you run out of things to do pretty quickly

Beautiful views of the sea with hammocks to chill in.
It is more like a 12 bed dorm even though advertised as a 6. (2 6 bed rooms with a door joining them and the bathroom was in the other room). Quite expensive but I guess your paying for the view

Very friendly people and the sound of the sea is so close you feel like you’re on a boat

Very nice vibe and incredibly cool view on the ocean from the garden. Watching sunrise from there is recommended. The hosts were super nice and helpful.
The hostel is 10 minutes away on foot from the center of Montezuma. Although the area is supposed to be safe, it didn't feel nice to walk back to the hostel after dark.

This is the most beautiful located Hostel we stayed in during our four weeks trip in Costa Rica.
The staff is very nice, the rooms are clean and the kitchen well equipped.
Just be prepared that Montezuma is a very small town and there sometimes can be issued with water and electricity. ;)
We enjoyed our stay here very much!

The staff and the owner were super nice, also it’s owned by local which is nice. The view from terrace is amazing and the rooms are good value for money.
8.0
The owner of the hostel is super helpful and gives you loads of tips at check-in. The beds were relatively comfy and there were 3 fans in the room so it was cool enough at night. The location is the best thing about the hostel, overlooking the ocean. There is a small beach you can access from the hostel and the main beach is only 10 mins walk, along with the centre of Montezuma. The hammocks are a great place to relax. The free waterfall entrance is also only 5 mins away.
Only two bathrooms for the whole hostel. The upstairs bathroom is shared by a maximum of 10 people, definitely not enough.

The location and the sea view with an amazing sunrise every morning was the best of this hostal. Then the treatment of the owner and staff was lovely! Although the location is 10min walking distance to the village it was worth it for the sea view!
The shared dorm was basic and only okay. Two shared dorms share one bathroom which is joint with an entrance from each dorm. So you have to lock two doors - which is no problem if you remember to unlock both doors when you leave. When someone does no do that and you want to go to the bathroom during the night or in the morning and the bathroom door for you is locked even though no one is in there is a bit annoying. The internet was down for one of the two days I stayed there (not sure if it was weather conditions or internet companys fault - but also annoying). The kitchen and stove did no work well the first night, the gas in the stove was so low that it took forever to fry or cook anything. The next 2 days it worked well.

Such a beautiful place to stay, the views are incredible! A great base for exploring Montezuma, or just relaxing in a hammock looking at the sea. Naty is lovely and very helpful with organising transport and tours!

View from the garden
Kitchen/Fridge were a mess. A lot of insects everywhere. Kitchen was closed in the early morning, so we couldnt eat breakfast on our last day.
