Montezuma Hostels - Reviews and Rates

After a sad goodbye to my besties from back home, I hit the road again. This time, I was headed to Montezuma to hook up with a friend who I met previously in Boquete, Panama...JAIME! I arrived on the late bus and hoofed it up a hella-steep set of stairs to the reception for Luna Llena. I had all my bags including my daypack, which I now refer to...

Surfed Mai Pais in the morning, again good waves but it was a ***** paddeling out stronger currents then I´m used to. After breakfest we set out to Montezuma for a hike that would lead us to waterfall that had 3 tiers and the 2nd tier allowed for some cliff jumping. Unfortunately on our way up the falls a traveller attempted the cliff jump but l...

We had two early mornings in a row - brutal! First for bird watching and then to catch the bus to Puntarenas which departs from Santa Elena at 6 am! Not my idea of a good time but we had no choice. And once there we would have 4 nights on the beach to catch up on relaxing...and we took full advantage. It was a beautiful day and the ferry ride wa...

Ahoj mladata, tak jsme prozili v Kostarice dalsi nadherny den, tentokrat jsme si udelali vylet k ukrytemu vodopadu s jezirky ukrytem v nadherne dzungli. Voda byla prijemne osvezujici, parkrat jsme se zhoupli na lane a klabosili s holkama z Argentiny. Odpoledne jsme vyrazili na dalsi plaz Santa Teresa, kde jsme se ubytovali ve velmi pohodovem hos...

Upon rising i resisted the temptation to slide down the firemans pole and wake all those partying *******s up from last nite. We caught an easy bus to Cobano to change buses to get to Montezuma, a laid back surfie village near the southwestern tip of the peninsula and popular with travellers who enjoy the mellow atmosphere, fuelled partly by fai...

So we were supposed to get up at 5am to catch the 6am bus, but I guess we had too much fun the night before and got up just after 6am, so we were forced to take the 8am bus. The 8am bus didn't leave till 8:30. Brett, Chelsea and I took the bus to Puntarenas, a port town where we take a ferry across the way to get to Montezuma (our destination). ...

Our Montezuma adventure started early. Really early. We took the bus from downtown San José (yes, early) Saturday morning, jumpstarting a long day of travel. It went a little something like this: nice, comfortable 2 hour bus ride, a bit of waiting... a 3km walk in the heat, a 1 ½ hour ferry, and finally a terribly bumpy, sweltering, overcrowded ...

Pura Vida or Pure Life, you hear it everywhere you go in Costa Rica, from smiling Ticos and Ticas, the locals around here. The country is absolutely beautiful, with amazing palm fringed white beaches dotting two different oceans, heaps of national parks, reserves, rainforest, cloud forest, mountain ranges, wild rivers and volcanos. Add to that t...
