Aves Hotel & Resort MONTEZUMA, COSTA RICA
Set along the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula — one of the world’s renowned Blue Zones — Aves Hotel & Resort offers a seamless blend of coastal charm and jungle immersion. Located just five minutes from the vibrant town of Montezuma, the property is surrounded by tropical gardens, ocean breezes and a landscape that invites both relaxation and exploration. At the heart of the hotel stands a remarkable
150-year-old pochote tree, a natural gathering point where guests reconnect throughout the day. A 17-metre swimming pool sits at the centre of the property, while a more secluded pool within the Serenity Villas provides a quieter retreat. Accommodation is tailored to a variety of
travellers. Balinese-style rooms feature loft spaces accommodating up to four guests, making them ideal for families or small groups. Serenity villas offer a more private experience, complete with outdoor showers immersed in nature — particularly suited for couples seeking a peaceful escape. Dining is centred around Ubin restaurant, where contemporary cuisine highlights local seafood and
fresh regional ingredients. Under the direction of chef Keilor Sánchez, menus reflect a connection to Costa Rican culture and community. The name ‘Ubin’, derived from the Boruca language word for ‘school’ reflects a philosophy of learning through food, heritage and local sourcing. The surrounding area includes the Montezuma
Waterfalls, located just 200 metres from the property, providing a dramatic natural attraction accessible by foot. Nearby, the Cabo Blanco Absolute Natural Reserve — the country’s first protected area — offers opportunities to encounter native wildlife, including howler monkeys and white-tailed deer. Just a 30-minute drive away lies Santa Teresa, known for its surf culture, sunsets and beaches. Wellness remains a central pillar of the
experience. Aves Wellness & Spa offers treatments such as lomi lomi massage and reiki, complemented by infrared sauna and cold plunge contrast therapy. Guests may also take part in wellness & yoga classes, enjoy pickleball courts or explore activity-focused spaces designed to enhance both physical and mental wellbeing.
