No one was there to greet us. I had to contact them via WhatsApp to find out that they had placed keys already in the hotel door the road from Montezuma to the hotel was extremely steep and the road looks like it was freshly cut out of the rock. the views were very, very nice, but the hotel itself felt very much like a youth hostel. We decided not to stay the night and to the credit of the hotel they did give me a refund minus one night . The pool is super tiny and had a dirt ring around it not very cared for.

We had a lovely eight day stay. This small hotel is on the top of the hill with the fantastic view, surrounded with the tropical forest. Very quite and idyllic. Very close to the waterfall. I could even go on a trail and have my morning coffee on the waterfall. Or on the cover rooftop of the hotel, or at the pool. Room was spacious and clean. Hotel is pretty new and well maintained. The only drawback was that to go to Montezuma and to the beach we had to drive. I wouldn't mind walking over the suspension bridge and to the village, total of about 15 minutes, but my family didn't want to join me. Overall it was a great experinece.

The room was lovely - clean and bright but unfortunately the construction in the adjoining unit was noisy and we had a lack of privacy. The breakfast was delicious. However, the main reason why we left a day early was the very rough state of the access road. Bottoming out in our rental car meant we were fearful of coming and going to the point of going without dinner one night. I believe your guests should be warned that they need a high clearance vehicle and warned that their room may be next to a room under renovation in your “sanctuary”.

Wonderful location and staff!! The oceanview is amazing from the hotel, and is very close to the waterfall. The waterfall is difficult to get to, no matter where you start, but worth the hike.
