Stayed here early April 13 with 2 teenage boys . Helpful, close to town, Great balcony to listen to Howler monkeys and watch White Capuchin monkeys who come and say hello! Rooms are basic but the price is good. Shared showers are a bit thin on the ground but not really a problem. Lovely communal area, kitchen, large fridges for... More

Just outside town, up the hill, built on side of a hill. 5 minute walk to town. Quiet, as opposed to town hotels. Ok, you can get better rooms at same price in town on the ocean, but I enjoyed the nice top deck in the jungle overlooking ocean. Rooms are basic: bed, fan, outdoor communal showers with occasional creepy... More

The place is laid out on five or six levels on a hillside, with a two-story building at the top, the lower level which contained a spacious, open floorplan with living room, dining and kitchen areas. The design was extremely well thought out in this area. As other reviewers mention this place is 5-10 mins uphill from downtown, and even... More

I've never stayed in a hostel but my friend booked the room and I had heard great things about this place. It feels like your staying in the jungle but is close to the town/beach. Monkeys running around. Great view from room. Meeting some really cool people too. I highly recommend Luna Llena:-)

Our stay at Luna Llena was absolute paradise. Surrounded by the sights and sounds of monkeys, jungle and ocean waves, we couldn't have asked for a more relaxing place to unwind. While there are many restaurants in town (a short walk down the hill), we chose to purchase food from the local farmers market and fish truck, and cooked our... More

This place was amazing! I went to Costa Rica with a group of class mates who had made reservations at other locations. After the first two night, everyone had transferred over to Luna Llena! The staff was so friendly. The kitchen is spacious. The outdoor showers are amazing! They had plenty of games, books, and seating area to hang out... More

What a great place to stay in Montezuma...You are right in the jungle with monkeys off your balcony and an amazing ocean view. The place is calm, up hill (a bit of a walk up actually but you get used to it), well located and calm. The room was nice, confortable and close to the toilet. Showers have mostly only... More

We arrived to Luna Llena after dark, greeted by colorful signage that was all smiles. After winding up the fragrant stairs flecked by lush tropical green and mango trees, we were greeted with much light (and refreshing water) from Milly. She was friendly, informative and helped us ease into the laid backness of Montezuma, and also gave us recommendations for... More

A short walk up a steep hill from town, this charasmatic place has a laid back vibe, nicely nestled in among the mabgo trees. The beds aren't the comfyest and the mosquito net had a few holes but overall it is good value. The shared showers and toilets are kept clean anx the kitchen well stocked. The staff are friendly...
