Ori

Paradise! I felt like a local living in a luxury but still very traditional and authentic place. You can tell the love that was put into this hotel. All the details were beautiful, the decor. the atmosphere... I can't say enough. the staff was so nice, Ori took care of my airport pick up and reception took care of me when I left. I had a relaxing 3 nights. it rained one evening and the power went out for like an hour or so... but even that was magical. I sat on my private balcony and just watched the rain disconnected and peaceful. breakfast was yummy too! Will stay again and will recommend.

Our stay at Hotel Amor De Mar was absolutely lovely! The room was cozy, clean and charming. The view of the ocean from our porch was stunning. Very grateful for such a sweet stay and will definitely be returning!

We got in early and were able to check in several hours early at no additional cost. The place felt like a retreat! It was so quiet and relaxing. The place walkable distance to town and the tour we booked. We were pleasantly surprised we had a room with an ocean view. We knew it was steps away but the view took our breath away! The staff on site were so friendly and the breakfast was exactly what I needed (fresh fruits and omelette to order)

What an amazing property with stunning views of the ocean and gardens. A complete “pura vida” vibe. Loveliest place we’ve stayed in Costa Rica. Friendly staff and impeccably clean rooms. Great patio to enjoy outside your room. Breakfast in the mornings served in the restaurant, additional cost- healthy options with lots of fruit, homemade bread, eggs made to your liking. Parking out front of the hotel. Montezuma Waterfalls right across the street which is a great hike. This felt like a retreat, somewhere to decompress and relax. Lots of places to relax on the property, sun loungers, day bed, Adirondack chairs and hammocks. I can’t wait to come back!

A very nice hotel with an excellent view.

I can only highly recommend the Oris Hotel: a magical place with a beautifully maintained garden area right by the sea, spotlessly clean, charming rooms with cozy balconies that also overlook the sea, palm trees, colorful plants – a tropical dream! The air conditioning has served us well. You also absolutely must not miss the varied breakfast! If you're coming to Montezuma, you've found the perfect place with Oris Hotel!

We stayed here for our honeymoon and throughly enjoyed the room and hotel staff. They were friendly and the environment held up to the “Pura Vida” vibe we were looking for.

Amazing room! Amazing people! Better then the pictures! Highly recommended! A real paradise!

The accommodation is as described in every way, and we were even pleasantly surprised when we arrived because we found it even prettier than in the photo! Peaceful, breakfast is very good, and it's really at the foot of a small swimming beach, and just across the street from an excellent restaurant :) Loved our stay here!

everything was perfect. the room is beautiful with a great view of the ocean & sunrise.

It’s more magical than the photos, a lovely place to stay. Staff were very helpful, although reception is limited to daytime hours, so ask questions during the day.

Amazing views and gorgeous accommodations overall. Highly recommend.

Amor de Mar is such a beautiful and peaceful location. Exceptional views of the ocean, beautiful grounds, and sounds of crashing waves. The place has so much character and charm as well. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Easy walk to Montezuma to explore there. Would recommend!!!!

Such a cozy, homey place. Right on the ocean, beautiful plants and design. We saw monkeys while parking our car! Healthy home cooked breakfast option daily. Karina made us feel so welcome and gave us tons of recommendations of things to do. Would definitely come back :)

Very friendly staff, very helpful! The location was beautiful. Also the homemade bread was delicious at breakfast! Highly recommended!

The place is beautiful, the surroundings and the hotel itself are breathtaking. A magnificent garden, ocean views, a rushing river and jungle in the window… each room allows you to contemplate nature from the terrace or balcony. You can see at every turn that someone has put their whole heart into this place. There are plenty of flowers, handmade decorations and the hotel's construction itself is a work of art. I'm so glad we could spend time there.

Best place to stay in Montezuma. So accommodating and helpful!!!

Hotel Amor de Mar was the last leg of our Costa Rica trip. The hotel and grounds were absolutely beautiful and the staff very welcoming, helpful and communicative both in person and through chat. The location is great, just a short walk to town with restaurants, super, shops and beach easily accessible. Naomi was so great helping us with recommendations and connecting us with Spicy Tuna for an affordable fishing trip. We had so much fun and caught tons of yellowfin. Everyone at the hotel including Fabiola was kind and happy to help. Don’t skip the breakfast - everything is amazing. If you want to experience Montezuma I’d highly recommend Hotel Amor de Mar. Pura Vida!

The art work and decor are original and beautiful. Most of the parking is “street” and the area is business during the day because the trailhead to the waterfalls is across the street. But the waterfalls trail is an overall advantage for the location. Tide pools at lower tides at the property and are worth a dip!

It was perfect for our needs- the place is close to everything. Also have a private yards in front of ocean, we enjoyed the view a lot. The room was cozy and clean. Thank you so much!

We loved Amor de Mar. It is a beautiful and artistically decorated hotel. It is so private and peaceful. I wish we could have stayed for a whole week. Next time!

I loved this place. I spent most my time in the garden on a hammock reading or watching the visiting wildlife. We had a daily dip in the rock pools, highly recommended this place. Lots of georgous plants and trees.

This place is a gem! A small hotel on a beautiful, well-kept site by the ocean. The place feels very private and calm although it’s only a short walk away from all the restaurants and other services. Rooms are comfortable and have AC. Breakfast menu had a lot of delicious and fresh options. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I can’t say enough nice things about this place. If you are going to Montezuma, you must stay here. Would definitely come again.

This is probably one of the best places to stay in Montezuma. It's very private, has a wonderful garden, and is a short walk to the center of town. The room is amazing and has great views. We'd definitely come again soon!

Thank you very much for our stay! The room and the gardens were so well kept and stunning! We were unlucky with the weather but I can only imagine how nice the gardens are in the sun! Easily walkable to the restaurants nearby, would stay again!

They have an amazing place and the daughter and other staff member where so nice. The view was incredible and there are alot of places that you can chill with the amazing view. They were also very honesy about their constructions and even made a compensation right away for it. Their cat Honey is super funny and sweet too. Thank you for the nice stay☺️

This place is amazing!! It’s not too far from town but also hidden in a peaceful & beautiful little sanctuary. If you are visiting Montezuma this is the place to book! The managers are amazing and attentive to anything you may need. The breakfast and coffee are also delicious. And you simply cannot beat the view from the backyard.

A wonderful stay in Montezuma at Amor de Mar. The hotel grounds are beautiful, rooms comfortable and well equipped with everything Montezuma has to offer on your doorstep. Our hosts gave us plenty of recommendations and helped us to book a tour to Isla Tortuga for snorkelling and relaxation on an uninhabited island (not to be missed!). One of my favourite places in Costa Rica and I can't wait to return. Pura Vida

Had a wonderful stay the view was amazing, room was very clean and the location was perfect. I would highly recommend this place to anyone staying on montezuma.

We only stayed one night but would have liked to have been there longer. We hiked around in the Cabo Blanco nature reserve and stopped at the Indigenous chocolate place. The town of Montezuma was a short walk from our location and the waterfall right across the street. It's definitely a good location. We enjoyed the local artwork and the pretty front yard to the ocean. The room was small but had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable.

The space was beautiful! The room was clean and had an ocean view. The AC was a welcome relief from the heat and it was a little paradise super close walking distance from downtown Montezuma. I would 100% book this room again, just know that the room is right next to the dining area so it's not isolated from the rest of the hotel. It wasn't bothersome but we needed to keep the blinds closed. Overall, it's a great place to stay.

This is such a beautiful and romantic boutique hotel in the lovely Montezuma. It’s right on the water which makes the view pristine. Svenja was a wonderful host and concierge that helped us coordinate transportation via ATV. Getting an ATV is highly recommended so you can drive around to Santa Teresa, Mal Pais, Cabuya, and Cabo Blanco National Park. We had such great adventures on our 4 days in Montezuma we wish we stayed a few more nights!

Svenja and Marlee were very communicative and helpful. They replied to every message and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. We had a delayed flight by 12 hours and ended up in Montezuma way earlier than expected. We felt very appreciative that they let us check in early to catch up on some much needed rest. Thank you for an incredible stay! This hotel is just beautiful and the restaurant had great options.

So good, we stayed at extra night!

First thing I thought when I saw this hotel was, “wow this would make the perfect wedding location”. Absolutely stunning grounds, like nothing I’ve seen before. Beautiful space. Breakfast was great. Location was perfect. If I could move here I definitely would. Definitely going back!

Another great night at amor de mar!

Beautiful hotel, peaceful & scenic. Just outside town enough to feel exclusive and private, with just a 5 minute walk into the centre of montezuma for dinner / drinks. The accommodation was beautiful, lovely breakfasts, beautiful tropical garden with multiple shaded relaxation areas. Staff were lovely, very accommodating if you needed anything. Thank you!

Perfect location - walkable to down and right across from the waterfall entrance. Beautiful grounds and friendly staff. If you don’t need the ADA I would suggest renting one of their other rooms higher up for more privacy. But would 100% come back!

Absolutely love this place and highly recommend to anyone! There's been so much love put into the hotel - from the fresh baked bread to all the decor. Book it!

loved the location. property was beautiful and quiet, but really close to the town for food and tours.

Amor de Mar is a gorgeous spot with a beautiful grassy lawn in front of the ocean and a very tasty restaurant and friendly staff. We loved hiking up to the waterfall right across the street!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This place is heaven. It is such a beautiful spot right on the water, and it is very walkable to shops and beaches. The room was beautiful and clean. We didn’t want to leave! Highly recommend this place!

I love this little boutique hotel! The location is close to everything but also nice and quiet. The staff was so friendly and helpful. It's a beautiful hotel with quality furnishings and linens. I can't wait to go back.

Great place! Easy checkin, beautiful location and room. Thankful for the air condition!

Amazing spot!

Gorgeous place, ocean front. Hammocks all over, 24 hour security and great breakfast. Very happy with our stay!

It was a great place with beautiful surroundings and relaxing. It was nice having a restaurant downstairs to order breakfast and amazing coffee. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. It was stressful dealing with our rental car being broken into on our first night, but the hotel grounds were great while we were waiting to get a rental car replacement all day. There are some restaurants and shops about 10 minutes walk away, but a lot of restaurants and services were closed due to winter period. The summer season starts in 2 weeks. Overall it was a great stay minus the car break in. We were lucky I guess they didn’t manage to steal the car. I would definitely come here again without a rental car.

The most beautiful location. The property is so well maintained. Very close to the Montezuma strip. Tons of restaurants/supermercados. The entrance to the waterfalls is literally across from the front door. Bring some colones because you do have to pay to see the upper falls. My fiancé worked with the host to set a up a little birthday surprise for me. 10/10 romantic spot 10/10 location

Amazing stay! If you are going to Montezuma this is your place. Above expectations. The view alone is worth it. I laid in the hammock, and watched the sunrise over the ocean. Gorgeous! Had a couple of monkeys stop by my balcony to welcome me in…that was awesome. lol. Montezuma waterfall is literally across the street. Not too long of a hike at all. There is a great little restaurant about 200 m down the street that serves amazing food. (Great recommendation from the front desk.) There is a guard on duty on night which is nice. Overall, I would give it 10 stars if I could.

A true paradise. Ori and his staff were super available even when booking to accommodate our needs. The garden is beautiful and the rooms are very comfortable. Super

My partner and I had a magical stay at Amor de Mar. Honestly the pictures don’t do the place justice. Our favourite part was the outside field that goes directly into the ocean. Its a very wide space with grass, several hammocks, deck chairs, an outside shower and a natural tide pool. We saw many animals as well (monkeys, iguanas and squirrels). The room had a private balcony with an amazing view on the trees and the ocean. The staff is also extremely kind and welcoming, they helped us book tours and gave us useful tips on restaurants and transportation for our next stop. The place is special, I would definitely go back!

Great location, we had a great time. The staff is very nice and helpful

🌺Beautiful ocean views, warm friendly staff , gorgeous intricate decorating & delicious breakfast 🌺

Very family accommodation. If you are looking for absolute relaxation and tranquility, this is the case. Direct access to the sea.

Everything is great here. And very very peaceful. Thank you

Our stay at Amor de Mar was magical! The hotel itself is so beautiful…a work of art, really. Cafe is such a special place with intricate art on the columns and colorful tile accents. Food:coffee was delicious. The grounds are lush and welcoming with hammocks/lounge chairs. The sun rise over the ocean was breathtaking. Our room (Orchid) had a lovely balcony which became our peaceful oasis every evening. Staff is on premises daily and very helpful. We did a Zuma snorkeling tour which we’d recommend. And Soda de Los Palmieras was good. And Butterfly Brewing was nice also. We visited in early June. Hiked the waterfall across the street. Also hiked Cabo Blanco nature preserve which was interesting. Both were nice but super hot/humid for us senior citizens (60 yo). We walked along the coast to Playa Grande which was lovely. And we drove to the Cholla waterfall for the short hike. It was muddy and buggy but really pretty once you reached the falls and the beach. Loved our stay so much!

Clean, beautiful room, we enjoyed our stay and we had great communication with the host, she even offered a mosquito bed net which was very useful. Much appreciated.

We loved our stay here in Montezuma! The property has beautiful botanical gardens & is very relaxing. The location is right next to the Montezuma Waterfall, which is a plus. It’s also close to downtown and other sodas to eat at. The AC works wonders too, as my husband and I were both chilly in the mornings!

Great place- perfect location and with a beautiful and well-landscaped beachfront area. Short walk to downtown but far enough to be isolated and not hear any of the noise.

We loved our stay! Our room was romantic and perfect for watching the sunrise!

We love to visit this place even once a year. It's beautiful , there's a lot of peace and lots of things to know around it too

Hotel Amor de Mar is the perfect private & peaceful getaway in Montezuma. It was clean, tidy and spacious. The balcony was absolutely perfect and the view of the sunrise was breathtaking. I would highly recommend staying here. It felt very tranquil and romantic! Thank you for a lovely stay.

Oh this was just so beautiful, I absolutely will be back one day and I will be telling everyone I know who even considers Costa Rica somewhere they may visit one day that they must come here! What an incredible location, exactly as described except possibly even better! The room was very clean and comfy, the bathroom was super nice too! Someone in the room before me had complained that the mini fridge was too loud, which personally I did not notice or take issue with, but the staff were super considerate and checked with me to make sure I was comfortable and content with it which I just think is above and beyond! You absolutely must come stay at Ori’s place!!

We had a lovely time at Amor Del Mar. you can’t beat the view, the breakfast, the walk ability to town (which is small and cute), and overall so relaxing. Our private deck was spectacular.

Beautiful property in a great location. You can walk to many beaches, restaurants, shops, etc. but you are away from the noise of central Montezuma. The gardens are gorgeous, and the tide pool was fun to swim in. Breakfast was delicious. Staff is very friendly. If you are not a very early riser, I would suggest either booking a room on the second floor or bringing ear plugs; at 5:45 both mornings I heard the guest above me walking around heavily, and the dining area being prepared. Other than that, my stay was perfect.

Nice place.

Beautiful location right on the ocean. Very close to montezuma. We enjoyed the food and coffee. A very professional staff. Would stay again!

Such a beautiful place! I loved everything about it!

They were amazing hosts, nice people and always willing to help. Will definitely come back !

A beautiful guesthouse right on the sea. The whole complex is lovingly designed, the breakfast very good. The location is excellent: private but in the immediate vicinity to the center of Montezuma. The hosts are very warm and make you feel right welcome.

The room was beautiful, right on the water and across from the montezuma waterfalls. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants to explore the peaceful montezuma area!

We stayed at Amor de Mar for the second time - such a peaceful place. In just some minutes, you're in downtown, but you can also have a relaxed day at Playa Las Manchas or hike to the waterfall. Highly recommended!

We loved our stay at Amor de Mar- its a beautiful hotel on the water with lots of lovely outdoor spaces to enjoy the ocean, birds, and monkeys. Our room was beautiful and we especially enjoyed our balcony which looked out over the sea. The breakfast was delicious and we loved swimming in the tide pool. This is a great location just outside of the main drag of Montezuma- quiet, but close to everything. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time at the Hotel Amor de Mar. The room is very nicely decorated and the view from the balcony to the sea is fantastic. The garden with loungers and hammocks is super nice and invites you to linger!

Beautiful grounds, beautiful service, beautiful food, beautiful stay! 100% would come back!

it was like in paradise, the house was fantastic, thank you natalie

Fantastic as always! Great place. Nice new menu. Will return again and again!

Great service, the room is very nice and clean. Just keep in mind that there are only 2 parking lots but you can park on the street

Amazing place, right on the ocean. We had a great time.

It was a great spot for a night as we travelled through the Nicoya peninsula! Great spot on the ocean.

Great hotel

A beautiful stay by the sea! Fell asleep to the sounds of the ocean waves. Calming and serene, perfectly located in Montezuma, this is a gem and hospitality is incredible. We enjoyed breakfast every morning, and felt very safe our entire stay.

Amazing view! Could listen to the waves all day. Strong ac, and comfortable room. Amazing breakfast as well, could not complain.

Super beautiful place with its own balconies, a very nicely landscaped garden and a 24h security service. Your own "restaurant" is also worthwhile for breakfast.

This place is amazing. I love the Costa Rican design. It’s right next to the hike for the waterfalls. Which are spectacular. It’s a must do. The hotel also has a tide pool you can swim in, which was great! Close walk to the town for great restaurants and bars. The hotel breakfast is amazing! I’ll definitely be back!

Absolutely gorgeous hotel with a view that beguiles. I felt as though I was in paradise! Furthermore it was very safe as there was an overnight security guard present. I will definitely be returning to the same hotel next time I’m in town. Thank you for the most lovely experience.

amazing hotel! highly recommend!

What an AMAZING place! The location is unparalleled. The rooms are beautiful, we loved the beach front view. You can walk to the town and right across the street is the waterfall. Highly recommend! No complaints!

Amazing spot! Loved having the waterfall access across the road! Lots of restaurants within walking distance. Loved our beautiful view as well.

This place is so beautiful! We loved our stay - Perfect location, sweet space, friendly and helpful host! Highly recommend!
