Montezuma is a cozy and colorful little town by the ocean. This town used to be a port to embark hogs and plantain to the city; this type of commerce ended with the arrival of the significant infestation of SIGATOCA, a lethal disease for all bananas, leaving the town in misery. As a result, Montezuma was a nowhere town for many years, and only the brave remained to live there.
Years later, this beautiful end of the peninsula was discovered by adventurous foreigners who decided to settle their life here “Nicholas Wessenberg and Karen  Mogensen,” later Albert S. Ingalls III and Gitza Gatti  and with them arrived a whole crew of Costa Rican adventurous tourist, who started to give the economy of this town a shift.

Nowadays, Montezuma is a well-known backpacker’s paradise, and in the past years, those not so adventures have felt the need to come to see this tip of the country.

Filled with tiny hotels and elegant restaurants, this Bohemian town has won many people’s hearts; many of them have chosen to stay here forever, while others, like seasonal birds, visit us every summer.
