Montezuma Ocean View Casita - Romantic, Relaxing Luxury

Set above Playa Montezuma in a lush, private tropical garden with spectacular ocean views and gentle sea breezes, this is a quiet haven for relaxation and rejuvenation. The private self-contained Casita with plunge pool and sundeck has king bed, beautiful large bathroom, and kitchenette.

Monkeys, pizotes and toucans are regular visitors! The beach, the famous Montezuma waterfall and excellent restaurants are close by.

DETAILS
The Space
The Casita was built in 2014 to accommodate visiting family, friends and coaching clients. It is cozy, quiet and luxurious.

Imagine this - arriving at the property you come to a plateau of tropical plants. You will walk past the main house, the ocean to your left. Past the owners' private swimming pool and yoga deck, you will come to a tropical path that leads to the Casita. There you will see papaya trees, helaconias and ginger plants, flowering, colorful bushes and palm trees. The private outdoor patio with its hammocks gives way to amazing expansive views of the tropical foliage below and the ocean.

The private plunge pool at the Casita invites you to cool off 24/7 and enjoy the magnificent ocean views and starry nights in tropical splendor.

The undercover patio offers al fresco dining at a beautiful handmade table and chairs from local wood, and a fully equipped kitchenette. Wide sliding doors open the Casita bedroom with its large, comfy king bed, its small inbuilt desk, and at the far end the bathroom.

OTHER INFORMATION

*The Property
The property comprises of 2 acres with the Casita set separately at the far end of the property. There are also the owners' residence with its private swimming pool, reserved for them or those staying at their home; a building with lodging for their private guests, and a nursery. The garden has an abundance of tropical foliage.

The entire property is fenced, and a remote-controlled locked gate at the bottom of the driveway offers added security. The structures are not visible from the road, hence very private and safe.

* Nearby
The Casita is located in Delicias, on a cliff above the small bohemian beach town of Montezuma. The immediate neighborhood offers various adventures - the canopy tour, Montezuma waterfall, the butterfly farm, and excellent restaurants are all within easy walking distance. The beach is just down a (steep) hill, and the town is about 1km from the property.

* Other Things to Note
The Casita is a vacation rental and not a full-service hotel with round-the-clock personnel. Guests are responsible for keeping the Casita clean during their stay, and for handling their own luggage. For stays of more than 6 nights, there will be a change of sheets and towels and a basic cleaning service at no extra cost halfway through the week. The private plunge pool at the Casita is cleaned every other day. A skimmer net is supplied so that guests can skim off anything that may have fallen into the pool inbetween pool service times.

The Casita is available for a minimum of 2 nights and a maximum of 14 nights.

*** Answers to some FAQs:

LOCATION: You would fly into the Costa Rican international airport in either San Jose or Liberia. From there you have various options to get to Montezuma: from San Jose, a shuttle service costs approx $55 per person and takes approx 5.5 hours; for example with Interbus Online or Zuma Tours. A domestic flight to Cóbano with Costa Rica Green Airways or Sansa (20 minutes) followed by a 10-minute taxi ride to my Casita near Montezuma. Or, a rental car either from San Jose airport (for example with Enterprise), or from Cóbano (with Budget).

From Liberia the transfer takes approximately 3.5 hours by car. Shuttle transport is available with Tropical Tours Shuttle Services.

GROCERIES: There are two grocery stores in Montezuma. They stock pretty much everything one might need. Also, every Saturday there is an organic produce market in Montezuma.

MEDICAL: A medical emergency service is available in Montezuma. A hospital, pharmacies, doctors and dentists are available in the next biggest town Cóbano, about 10 minutes drive away.

This was our second stay so we got to know the area quite well as we were there for two weeks. We found several great walking/hiking routes and great restaurants nearby to drive or walk to. This trip we went on a private fishing trip with spicy tuna, the zip line and golf so there is a lot to keep you busy. We love the property and the staff. The gardens are amazing and the casita met all our needs. We plan on returning in a couple of months for our third visit.

30th Anniversary Stay

My wife and I spent our 30th anniversary in this Casita and it was wonderful. Beautiful views, surroundings and overall just a great place for 2 people to get away. 5 to 10 minutes from everything you need for a wonderful trip and all Lokita's suggestions are spot on. Thanks Lokita for sharing this little gem with us.

Invasion of the howler monkeys!!

Wasn’t really an invasion, but we had an awesome first two days with a group of 8 howlers camped out in the trees right above the casita.This is truly a wonderful spot, and a great place to base out of when exploring zuma and the nicoya peninsula. Starting every day with a short hike down to the falls is amazing!

Beautiful Ocean View Casita

We loved our stay in this casita. The views from this place are better than the pictures. We loved being close to the town of Montezuma, but still tucked away in the beautiful oasis. This place is very well thought out and very clean. We hope to stay here again someday!

Beautiful Views and very cute Casita. outside kitchen as nice but lots of ants, understand why plastic bins were supplied. the listing said a short walk to town was misleading as the house was on a VERY Steep hill with a narrow road and somewhat busy (dangerous). we ended up having to drive to town and beach each day we stayed there which we cut short (by 4 nights) for this reason. we paid for entire week (7 nights) and only stayed 3 nights.

Lovely property!

We spent five nights at Lokita's charming Casita. Very hot while we were there but always seemed to be breezes on this hilltop setting. Beautiful sunrises and a great pool. Quiet and peaceful landscaped setting. Some really good restaurants- eg Clandestina- close by as well as some lovely beaches. We had a great time and would love to return in the future.

I feel so lucky to have found this cozy, romantic and adorable place to spend a few nights. Away from the center of town and yet so close to it.
