The villas at Casa Frangipani are surrounded by lush vegetation and offer terraces with stunning views. All villas features air conditioning, free Wi-Fi,a living area and a well-equipped kitchen.

- we had a villa with sea view (actually all villas have sea view ;-)) - we enjoyed being surrounded by amazing nature and the peaceful, quiet atmosphere to relax and unwind - it’s a very well maintained property, plants, flowers, trees and even animals (eg tucans who came close to our kitchen window) - villa had a sun-shaded terrace for relaxing, reading and eating meals and you can walk to the waterfall to the property jungle directly - we used additional roof top terrace for yoga and looking into the stars at night - Ken and Johnson are incredible nice hosts Overall recommendation to stay for some days to get the best out of it.

Surrounded by lush vegetation, this family-run establishment is located just 1 km from Montezuma, in Costa Rica.

All the casitas have a porch with a hammock and views of the tropical gardens of Casa Colores. There is an outdoor pool with comfortable sun loungers.

Everything. Honestly, we were so comfortable and loved having birds around us and hearing the howler monkeys from the poolside. The cabin was spot on and, although it's definitely in our "splurge" category for price, we would do it again without hesitation.

    Well designed, cozy, comfortable with a fully equipped kitchen. We loved the location, quiet with a good pizza nearby, a grocery store that had everything we needed and it's a walking distance from playa cuevas.

    andrea and her husband were the perfect hosts. the apartment was clean and had everything we needed to make it feel like our second home. it was nice to have a functional kitchen and the private balcony overlooking the tiny pool provided a quiet place to start our day, and act as a refuge from the bustle of santa teresa.

    felt more like a deluxe hostel, but I had a great time. ambiance and people were great! if you’re staying above the main house it’s not quiet, I was in a bungalow and pretty quiet, but very pricey for it. prices hiked because of demand.
