Montezuma Costa Rica is a paradise

My girlfriend and I were in Costa Rica last year for our Christmas holidays. It was our first time in Costa Rica although we have been to the Caribbean Islands and Mexico so being in a tropical country was not entirely new to us. Planning for Costa Rica trip was not that difficult and you do not even need a travel agent as they are plenty of online websites that you refer to. We actually booked our flight tickets and made our hotel reservation on the Internet and it was breeze. We chose to go in December which was the peak season but it was the only time that we had and furthermore it was the dry season so we got plenty of sunshine although things were a little bit more expensive than usual. If you really are on a tight budget, you may want to consider going between May and Nov which is the off peak as well as rainy season. Anyway a little bit of rain here and there won’t kill you. We had a fantastic time there and we are already making plans for a Costa Rica honeymoon after our wedding at the end of year. There are so places to visit in Costa that we just didn’t have time to visit them all.

Since we only had 1 week, we had to plan properly and be sure on where we wanted to visit. Since we are both nature lovers so we decided that we would visit the famous Caba Blanco and Curu nature reserves in Nicoya Peninsula. We took a flight from San Jose to Tambor and then made our way to Montezuma. We sort of madeMontezuma Costa Rica as our base and would make day trips to the surrounding areas such as the reserves, Mal Pais and Santa Teresa which are popular among surfers. Montezuma Costa Rica is both relaxing and happening at the same time. It is pretty slow and laid back on the weekdays as you could just sit back and relax the whole day at Montezuma beach. However the scene changes dramatically over the weekend when the party crowds from the city arrive to join in the wild parties in town. Since we are both not party animals, we decided to spend the we weekend at the nearby Santa Teresa which was pretty nice as it was uncrowded and there are many trendy restaurants and hotels in the little town.
