About this property

Montezuma Heights the cute Mariposa Cottage, into the great wide open. Sleeps 2

One of our last guest said: " if you don't like this you don't like anything".
We have to say, it is for nature lovers.
Feel the breeze end enjoy the amazing view 300 ft. above the Pacific Ocean. At night you can see perfectly the stars. The cabin is made with antics what gives it his unique warm touch.

One would find us in the tiny and graceful land: Costa Rica. We are at the tip of "Playa Manchas Azules" in the border of Montezuma and Delicias towns, where the sunrise softly awakes one skin when time comes to show. The South part of Nicoyan Peninsula embraces pristine beaches such us: Montezuma, Playa Grande, Cocalito, Cabuya, Santa Teresa, Mal Pais, Playa Hermosa, Manzanillo and more. All beaches with its own character and presence, some with calm and relaxing waters and others no matter what moon shines in the sky, they show their powerful will. Some even well know Internationally for surfing conquest. Delicias and Montezuma's town got bless by its aquifers and waterfalls formations decided to make their presence here, adorning the scenery and refreshing the visitors and the surroundings. According to some locals it could be around 70 waterfalls of all sizes, most of them hidden in the wilderness. We made a guideline booklet for our clientele of the Do's while in the area. They are plenty of activities to engage with. From a bioluminescence experience in Curu, to snorkeling in Tortuga Island, getting Yoga classes, paddle boarding, cycling, kayaking, fishing, diving, horse back riding, Spanish lessons, swimming, hiking, ATV riding, canopying, jumping into the waterfalls, exploring the rivers upstream, photographing, bird watching, fresh see food enjoyment. Our cliff nest has been sculptured with lots of love and patience over the years. First a recompilation of antics: wood, post, doors and windows for recycling purposes took place and then the Restoration of the pieces before taking the challenge to design were and how we wanted them to get alive again. We did all the details, icons and tile work one would find in Montezuma Heights and a well known Costa Rican artist Enrique Hidalgo shows his art imprint as well. If one visits us would get embrace by an outrages sunrises and taking a short cut in 30 minutes would get the ephemeral company of and stunning sunset in the other side of the Nicoyan Peninsula.

Bliss on the cliff

Stunning location on clifftop with 120 ocean view, 24/7 surf sounds. Quiet, full morning birdsong; helpful caretaker. Difficult to access; beautiful, rustic, one-of-a-kind cabin has small kitchen and detached, hot-water shower. A relic of Montezuma's early years, without the recent, "international style."

Treetop Hideaway

The cottage was exactly as described. Unbelievable views with a nice breeze. The roads are a little rough as most roads are in CR. Our host was in constant contact asking if we needed anything. The couple of times that we did, the site manager was immediately at our door. Fantastic place.

About the host

Host profile image
We appreciate life and we are grateful to be still around in a healthy way. Nature lovers, peaceful minded, love dogs as much as humans :) and all sentient beings. Play music and love dance. Followers of Buddhism as way of being present in this life. We are a couple made up, beside destiny, by our understanding of diversity. Peter an adventurous and visioner German, who left his country cause in the back of his mind since he was a child had the feeling of living abroad. Came to Costa Rica years ago and immediately, fell in love with the beauty of Costa Rica and with a sensitive Costa Rican woman, Rocio. She a former teacher of the University of Costa Rica, a dancer who has the privilege to achieve her master´s degree at Naropa University, in Boulder, Colorado. Comes from a family of a 'Zarzuela' and Operetta singer, and a well known oil painter. Visitors can enjoy his paintings that give life, color, meaningfulness and pour wonderful energy into this space and time container. Peter and Rocio blessed by the cosmos sculptured day by day a family of a 11 years old daughter and older son. A family, with an artistic eye that allow life to nurture them by being always grateful to the forces that compose their rhythm and drive in this trajectory of beingness.

Why they chose this property

We have chosen to live here, cause the first encounter with this place gave us the sense of such a peacefulness for having the lull of the ocean waves as a front neighbor nurturing our senses. Then, the stars without shyness getting out at night to wave at us. The sun touches carelessly the window with its big red face every morning. Seeing a full moon drawing a sparkly path on the skin of the ocean is like an illusion of reality or reality is an illusion? Come to hear the plays of the ocean and be a witness yourself of such a beautiful nature´sculpture. Researching that ancient Costa Rican indigenous inhabitants used to lived around, we honored them by having different icons that refer directly to their way of living and being. You would find those around.

What makes this property unique

This cliff location with a first line ocean view makes a plus hard to beat, only the frequency of your heart can beat it :) ! when being overtaken by such a gentle nature pulse. Beside, its very cozy and Feng Shui oriented. One has nature and privacy as a companion. The ocean is your closest viewer. It is quiet, safe, secluded, great for relaxation and has internet access. Here the breeze runs naked all year around, that is why the name of the town ('Las Delicias' = Delicious) cause the wind touches and embraces the visitors refreshing ones´ existence. Most of the material we used to give birth to this project were recollected for years ahead, in order to save antique windows, French doors and recycle wood floors and various wood structures. Some of the pieces come from early 1900´s. We worked very hard to restore them to be able to bring them into space again, bringing more Co2 to the planet, instead of letting them being burn or destroy, as originally planned by construction agencies. To round up the gorgeous warmness of the wood, we created spaces with mosaic designs to give a chance of any possible sensitive encounter. Come yourself to see that any photo would be able to do its justice, simple the view of the wide wide open see and the first touch of the horizon would eclipse and capture your senses like a spell drive.To really believe it you got to come here, you will not regret it.
