“Nicoya Seclusion”

Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

The Ylang Ylang Beach Resort is the perfect place to relive yourself of the hassles of modern life, without sacrificing any creature comforts. The location alone make the traveler feel like they have made an accomplishment simply by arriving. The town of Montezuma is relatively remote, and the road getting there is lousy, but the laid back feeling and beautiful... More

Reviewed 17 May 2013 NEW

First of all, Montezuma is one of our favorite places in Costa Rica, and we stayed the two first nights in the "center" of Montezuma right across from the town bar, during the night there was a lot of noises both from the music and the monkeys running around on the roof. It didn't really bother us, but once we... More

“The perfect gateway to get away”

Reviewed 12 May 2013

Ylang Ylang is a different place … It is hard to get there (we drove from Arenal to Montezuma straight), but once you arrive there and start noticing how beautiful the area is, how Ylang Ylang was designed and built around jungle and native forest, the trip was worth it every minute. We stayed at the beach bungalow for honeymoon... More

This place was an amazing experience. Ylang Ylang was the 2nd stop on our trip and exceed all of expectations. As soon as you check in they give you a refreshing welcome drink that sets the mood for the rhythm at this resort. Time moves slow, the waves and the sounds of nature set the tone for a relaxing experience.... More

“Amazing”

Reviewed 3 May 2013

I can't say enough about the stay at Ylang Ylang. It was perfect. It doesn't have a lot of rooms and bungalows so all the staff knows your name and are so helpful and friendly. The food was the best food I've ever had. No joke. Amazing. I loved that we had hammocks outside our bungalows to lay in, the... More

Reviewed 28 April 2013

My husband and I spent 14 nights in Costa Rica for our honeymoon. We had booked most of our hotels, but left a few nights open to drive around and "explore". We both wanted to check out the Nicoya Peninsula, but only had 1 night available. ***Side Note: My husband has A LOT of experience driving off-road. He was looking... More

We went to Ylang Ylang to see our son get married. When he first told us of his plans I was excited but apprehensive also. I had never been anywhere as exotic n was nervous of the unexpected. I needn't have been. From the moment we arrived at Ylang Ylang n were given thost delicious cold vanilla smelling flannels to... More

“Absolutely Perfect!”

Reviewed 23 April 2013

We came to Ylang Ylang the end of March/beginning of April; it was my husband and our 6 and 7 year old children. We had the most amazing time! Ylang Ylang was a perfect location away from it all, but close enough to town to walk or adventures. We thought it was going to be wonderful, but it exceeded our... More

This was my third stay at the Ylang Ylang and I will be back again and again. This time I came with my cousin and she thought she died and went to heaven. It is the best find ever!
