We had a great time there. The house is surrounded by a beautiful garden. We also had a view of the ocean from there. The staff is great and very helpful.

Very pretty big house with a great kitchen and pretty garden around with fresh fruit. The rooms are nice and clean, though there are a lot of ants and other insects due to the forest around. The host ist very nice and always available for any issues. Only slightly negative thing is the location, as it is quite far from the small city. It’s 30 min by foot down to the beach/Montezuma or a 6000 colones taxi ride up/down. The host does however offer to drive you up/down one time a day. Overall we had a lovely time!

We loved everything about this place. Beautiful big lodge building on a a property with amazing view and gardens. All the amenities you need and heaps of breakfast supplies - making our own smoothies with fruit from the garden was ideal on a hot afternoon too. Host is super friendly and helpful!

Where to start... This might have been my best allround experience through Booking. And I travelled a lot. The place, it's surroundings, the energy, the host, the services and facilities, everything was 10 out of 10. You can pick fruits from the beautiful garden to make your own smoothie in the morning. There's an abundance of birds, animals and butterflies. You can hear the monkeys howling in the trees in the morning. I would wake up in the early morning to watch the sunrise while drinking my coffee and watching the ocean. If you want to immerse yourself in nature and have a peaceful stay this is your place. Every room has their own fridge in the kitchen and every morning your host will make sure there's enough products in there to have a lovely nutritious breakfast. It also has very well equipped kitchen with all utensils you need in case you want to cook at home. Ype goes above and beyond to ensure you have to most perfect stay. Property is a little bit far from the downtown and since I was solo traveling without a vehicle I was worried this might would be a problem. But in hindsight, I didn't want it any other way. You feel remote (in the best way possible) while still being close to the crowds in town. I either walked and enjoyed the surroundings (I would recommend to walk to town at least once and make a stop at the Beer Brewery <3) or Ype would drop me off/pick me up with his AT4. I wished I could have stayed longer. My 2 days felt like a month. If you want to fully recharge and enjoy Costa Rica in it's purest form, this is you place to go. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Ype. Keep it going, Pura Vida!

Outstandingly beautiful property, including a huge garden (you can pick your own fruit). Very clean room and shared spaces and tasteful interior. Extremely helpful and hospitable host. Free ATV ride into town or back if needed.

Perhaps that only gave one egg per person on the breakfast, maybe it would be good to ask this before.

The view and the tranquility of the place is outstanding, you feel connected to nature and gratefull for being in such a wonderfull place

Everything, it’s tranquil and away from noise downtown, beautiful gardens, kitchen very well equipped, it’s a 3 walk from downtown which for us was great and our host picked us up every evening. Host was superb and at one with nature, very informative and helpful. Animals and birds were abundant. We loved it there, l have been to many places in 50 years of travel and at this moment I cannot think of a better place to spend time at, will definitely return.

It can get quite warm in the room (No AC, fan) so please note if you’re sensitive to this.

Lovely garden and great hospitality. Ipe provided us with advise for area activities and breakfast was nicely organized!

The atmosphere and the personal approach from the owner were spectacular. The house was incredibly neat and everything was really clean. Other beaches are near and it's almost a few minutes from Montezuma. I definitely recommend this place to stay.

Property is a little bit far from the downtown but if you are looking for nature and peaceful stay - it is place for you. Owner is very helpful and compensates long distance with free ATV ride. He offered us free food from his beautiful garden. This place has amazing view to the Ocean. It has very well equipped kitchen with all utensils you need. You have to prepare breakfast for yourself but you get enough products for nutritious breakfast.

Beautiful facilities, gardens, common areas, communal kitchen well appointed, caring and responsive host.

There was a high humidity in the sleeping and bathroom. Unfortunately, in the bathroom there were no mosquito nets. Therefore, ventilating without getting insects in the bathroom, was not possible.

Our host was really great - very helpful, communicative and a lot of good and honest advices on making tours and where to go e.g. surfing. The host speaks German, Dutch, Spanish and English well (maybe further languages), this made the conversation easy with all the guests. We felt welcome and had an awesome quiet time in Jodokus Inn and nice activities in Montezuma (the waves for surfing are nice at playa grande, better go for a bioluminescence kayak tour in Paquera) :) The sleeping room is equipped with a good mosquito net at the windows, a powerful fan and the bed was comfortable. There is a lot of really nice wood furnitures and floors and a nice view on the ocean in distance, which creates a special and relaxing atmosphere with the amazing garden and animals. We enjoyed the tasty breakfast with fresh pineapple or mango, cheese, eggs, yogurt, cornflakes, toast, coffee etc and the well equipped kitchen very much (all the ingredients are provided in your own big fridge and you can prepare your breakfast whenever you want). The garden of our host is amazing. We saw howler monkeys, white-faced capuchin monkeys eating bananas, an agouti, a coati eating ants and the rest of a pineapple, rare doves and different fruits like starfruit, oranges and grapefruits (we were allowed to pick and eat them). We’d like to prolong our stay at Jodokus Inn!

Really nice place just walking distance from the beach. Very easy to get there. Very silent and the host is amazing. Really recommended especially if you don’t have a car.

beautiful grounds and perfectly located just away from the crowds in montezuma.

The super-white light bulb in the bedroom haha. Pretty much everywhere we stayed in Costa Rica could benefit from softer-colored light bulbs

Ype is a great host who truly wants his guests to relax and enjoy themselves

Great and friendly owner, beautiful garden. Calming place.

Stayed in January 2023

The only thing I could mention is there is no air con, however there is a fan in the room which was sufficient.

Everything, the location is superb for relaxation and taking in the natural surroundings. You can see the water from the property but are also surrounded by trees, fruit, wildlife. The host was amazing, very helpful and great to chat to.

It is such a relaxing place. You immediately feel at home. My host made me comfortable, filled the fridge everyday with delicious fruits and helped me a lot by driving my friend to Santa Theresa.

An absolutely stunning house with gorgeous extensive grounds. You won’t find peace and quiet like this elsewhere in Montezuma, and we loved every second we spent here! We saw so much wildlife on the property and the owner, Ype, often pointed out birds and animals in the garden. It’s a couple of miles out of town, and not really walkable, but this is what makes it such a secluded spot - and Ype offers a lift on his quad bike every day, which is great fun in itself! There is also a great kitchen so you can enjoy cooking meals and eating them with a stunning view. Ype could not have made us feel more welcome and was always on hand if we needed him. Staying here is a real experience, and we would love to come again! His website has some great pictures of the location, too.

The best hotel I never have. The place was wonderful, the host kind and very helpful in all ways. Definitely recommend it!

Amazing accommodation. We loved our stay there. The garden around the property is great for wildlife spotting (a troop of capuchin monkeys came by one morning) and the view to the sea is spectacular. Very hospitable and helpful host (thank you!). We would definitely go there again.

This place really is a little gem in Montezuma! I was taken care of so well and it really feels like a home where you get your own fridge and can roam the grounds freely. You’re super close to nature and will be able to see all sorts of animals! It’s a little bit away from “down town” Montezuma which I personally appreciated.

Stayed in July 2022

It is a little way from the town, you will need to take a taxi if you don't have a car.

This was an incredible place to stay - amazing views out to sea, lovely communal areas with a very well equipped kitchen, and comfortable rooms. The host is so friendly and helpful, he even drove us down to the town on his quad bike to save us getting a taxi to the bus stop.
