I loved the little pool. We had it to ourselves which was great. Also the gardens were pretty. Staff were helpful, ordering a taxi when we were leaving. The hammock on the little terrace was a nice touch.

While the property is not all that far from Montezuma, it is on a steep, winding and fairly busy road up from the town. It is walkable down and takes about 20 minutes, but a taxi is needed back up and it is definitely not a road I would want to walk on after dark.. Also the lock on our room was broken so it could not be locked or even fully closed.

the little cabane mad us feel like we were in the trees !the hotel room is very lovely with a hammock and a private kitchen and the swimming pool is very enjoyable in the middle of the garden!

a little bit far from the Center ( not really easy to walk along the road and the hills )

beautiful garden with a swimming pool, very good accommodation conditions, kitchen at your disposal, helpful owner, theoretically close to the beach, but the return is very uphill - a car is recommended

The garden is beautiful and the pool is nice. Impossible to enjoy them with the sound of hammering, sawing, etc. all day long, though. The kitchen is well equipped.

My room was not great. It was the smaller apartment with a separate kitchen. There is no air circulation, so it is stuffy and smelled bad. The sheets also did not smell fresh. The ceiling fan is badly fitted and makes a lot of noise that is impossible to sleep with. Because it is not hung properly, it makes a loud thumping and scraping sound. I found myself trying to sleep without the fans, but then was bitten a lot by all the bugs. A no win situation. The bed is pretty uncomfortable, and the pillows were basically just 2 thin pieces of foam stuffed into pillow cases. There are a lot of bugs. I appreciate that that is part of being in nature, but the room is not well protected from letting them in. And again, the fans! There were also cockroaches living in there. There was work going on on one of the buildings throughout my stay that was a constant disturbance. I didn't find the hosts friendly and helpfully like others have said. They were mostly busy or unavailable. There's for sale signs on the entrance, so maybe they've stopped caring about reviews. I don't know, but experience was far different from what other reviewers have reported. I felt uncomfortable from the point of check-in. I was clearly exhausted and being unaware that there was no ATM in Montezuma, I didn't have cash to pay my room bill there and then. Rather than just letting me put bags in the room and sorting it out after, we instead spent 20 or 30 mins trying to get a connection for the card reader. I felt untrusted and like she wanted to make sure to get the money before I saw the room and before the noisy construction work started the following morning. The location wouldn't have been such a problem if it wasn't for all the disturbance as I'd intended to spend most of my time relaxing in the garden by the pool. Unfortunately, without a vehicle, it was problematic having to do the couple of km steep climb up and down the hill, in and out of Montezuma.

staff was very helpful and loved 5e pool and garden.

the garden is remarkable, the bungalows are fully equipped with everything you need.

there isn’t anything we didn’t like. I have read many comments stating that the location at the top of the hill was a negative, but it shows that this is the case when looking at the listing. the fact there is a long hill between the accommodations and the town is a bonus.

Very relaxing and quiet, wonderful grounds

Privacy

I really loved this place! It was absolutely beautiful surrounded by nature. It felt like home away. We enjoyed cooking and chilling there. The pool area was lovely! The host was very friendly and kind giving us two extra pillows. Parking is literally in front of the building, there were comments about the parking being far, is just not. Yes, there is a big ramp to get in and out the building but I didn’t see this as an issue as other people mentioned here. If you don’t have a car It will be complicated is not close to the beach and Center. Overall I highly recommend this place if you want to connect to the nature, have some peace and quiet and a place that feels like home.

The lights were a bit low, maybe some lamps by the bed side can be good for extra lighting.

Great place to stay ! Illiana is really helpful in case you need anything :)

Beautiful bungalows! Very clean! The owners are very nice people! The pool is cute and the property is lush and green. I did love my little bungalow a lot!

It was a little difficult to get to and from Playa Montezuma. There weren't taxis going past so you had to call someone to come get you. It was a very steep 15 min walk to Playa Montezuma which I did a couple of times but isn't easy with a suitcase. They don't accept cards for payment and there are no ATM's in Montezuma. The owner did help me figure out how to get cash.

Great place! Well set up and well run. Iliana and Gerardo are great hosts. Friendly and always ready to help and give advise.

very nice hosts with good english skills, I loved the hammock on the patio and I liked that the kitchen was in a separate room in the jungle - so you see a lot of animals, nice pool

we didn‘t like the pillows (Not very comfy) and the location wasn‘t very ideal. the bungalows are located up the hill and you have to walk on the street down/up. It‘s a Bit dangerous behause there is no boardwalk and it is steep. there are also no restaurants around, so you have to go into town for everything. but it is not expensive to take a taxi up the hill (around 3000 colones)

Nice hosts.

The pictures in the profile are for the larger and more expensive bungalows. We were not hosted in a bungalow but in a small room, with a kitchen attached. It was dark, without windows, stuffy.

Legitimate little piece of paradise. Ileana was a gracious host. Bungalow was comfortable with a beautiful pool area, private sitting area and surroundings

only downfall if you don’t have a vehicle or have trouble walking up/down hills was the hill down to Montezuma town. For us wasn’t an issue (15min walk) and a taxi is cheap to get back if needed

The place has a lovely garden around the bungalows. Everything is well equiped, including a kitchen where you can prepare your meals. Very closed to the center of Montezuma. We really enjoyed our stay!

I cannot say enough good about this property and our stay without sounding like a gushing fool! My husband and I had the best experience ever, our stay in Montezuma has become our favorite part of our 20 day Costa Rican trip. Gerardo and lleana are two of the nicest hosts going above and beyond to help their guests have a wonderful stay. The bungalows are clean and gorgeous, the grounds and setting is spectacular. Anyone can tell that an amazing amount of love and pride goes into making Flor De Paraiso and paradise getaway.

There is nothing that I didn’t like about the property however there are a couple of things to be aware of which we’re not problems for my 68yo hubby or myself (55 yo). First: the property is not in town but at the top of a very steep hill. The hill looks more intimidating than it really is- my husband and Idid walk up and down the hill. When tired, it is only a $5 or less taxi ride from town to Flor De Paraiso. Second: the walk down to the bungalows is a bit steep as well. Keep to the sides of the walkway rather than the middle for better traction.
