"Property is beautiful, lots of birds and monkeys. Room was perfect, clean, very comfortable, overlooking the native jungle garden. Breakfast was fantastic! Service was great, everyone was very friendly and helpful. Pool is beautiful and well maintained. Could not have been better. As VIP Platinum members we were able to upgrade to a balcony suite. Had dinner at the restaurant one night and it was amazing! Josue was our usual bartender/waiter and he was great, so friendly and a great conversation."

"Can’t beat the view - property was clean. Short drive to beaches"

"An awesome place in an awesome location! Beautiful and remote!"

"We stayed at 2 places on our family trip to Costa Rica. This was the second (first was on the Caribbean side). This location is remote, and off the main road so you will need a 4X4. But that is exactly what we wanted and that is exactly what we got! Unbelievable view. Great deck, plenty of room for a family of 5. It was not on solar when we were there which to me was a plus as we did not have to worry about running the dishwasher, etc. The washer was not working, which was a disappointment. But things break so you just deal. Dave was responsive and tried hard to get it going, which we appreciated. If I had to find something we did not like, it is very minor. Several of the light switches were broken or not operational. But, we managed just fine and it was not a big enough deal for me to call Dave. Some of the screening had holes and some screen doors show their age. But again, it was manageable and was not a deterrent in any way. Just an observation. Dave was great and responsive on any inquiries He set us up with a sweet captain to go fishing and, unfortunately, when we had some stomach issues, he recommended a great pharmacy. Overall this was a really nice and enjoyable experience. You will love the view and all the peace and quiet that comes with this beautiful home. Would stay there again for sure!"

"I wouldn't stay anywhere else after staying here!"

"but do be prepared for a wonderful, fascinating experience. This is an older/rustic retreat. If you're looking for an air-conditioned fancy facility, this isn't for you. But trust me, the sometimes harrowing drive to the tip of the peninsula will lead you to a memorable stay. Paradise with an ocean view. The place is called the Howler Monkey Hotel because, guess what, the monkeys will wake you early. The ocean was very warm to swim in at high tide, and the pool cool and refreshing. James, the owner, is great, very kind and knowledgeable about the area."

"I would like to first say this, I absolutely had no clue, really, of what I was about to venture on for the next 30 days when I arrived in Montezuma, (Montezuma Heights), as a single middle aged woman who didn’t speak any Spanish, driving myself, in a country that I truly was not completely prepared for. So I will assume my part of responsibility. I am happy to say that Peter was very good with his prompt communication with me. If I had questions he was good to get back to me in a timely manner. You must be aware that the roads are very very rough leading to this property. I myself, would never want to travel those roads without 4 -wheel drive. The property is beautiful, yes, with a gorgeous view and lovely pool. My unit was comfortable and clean, however, it’s located behind and below the other units, therefore fairly dark atmosphere. (Lighting maybe). There is a pathway back to this unit that also is very dark so a light source is needed. The pool area also needs to be put on some sort of automatic motion detection for lighting. Was not able to enjoy the pool area one night due to no lights at all. I did enjoy listening to the Howler Monkeys out there somewhere. I did enjoy very much the actual area and the beautiful flowers, and the awesome sounds of the jungle. Costa Rica is a magical place. Laurie W."

"The lot is beautifully treed and natural and the pool area is refreshing and quiet. This is a great place to chill in nature and simplicity."
