Sano Banano Beachside Hotel

This is a great little hotel in a perfect location in Montezuma Beach. The rooms are clean & comfortable with AC & hot water. They have a shelf with a safe for storage, but not night stands or dressers. The have indoor & outdoor dining areas and they serve a great complimentary breakfast. None of the other hotels offer this that I know. You can also use their sister resort’s (Ylang Ylang) pool & restaurant. This is a great addition. The staff is very friendly & they do everything they can to make sure you enjoy the stay.

We love Sano Banano!! The food was delicious and the service was amazing. We were In Montezuma for a week and ate here 5 times. Ishmael was so kind, funny and informative!!

I didn't stay here but stopped by for breakfast one day and it was so good!! Lovely atmosphere, staff, food and drinks.

This is the best place to stay in. Montezuma breakfast is included and it is unbelievably good. It's located at the heart of downtown right next to a store the beach, a trip activity coordinator, ice cream store bar and outdoor seating area. The rooms are clean and the AC was unbelievably good. The beds were very comfortable and each room is unique and made the whole experience for our friend group very fun and easy. We had no problems with our stay except the fact that we had to leave. The restaurant attached to the hotel is by far best food you're going to find in Montezuma if not all of Costa Rica. Nothing on the menu Mist it was all 100% grade a bussin gas pack elite tier dining. I will be going back just for the banana pancakes if not anything else and there's so much else about Montezuma that makes it fantastic but like no joke the banana pancakes are the only reason I got my extremely hung over buns out of bed at 7 AM

We realized late on the night we were supposed to check-in that we made a mistake in the booking and did a no show. The manager was absolutely fantastic and understanding, she booked us a room for the following night without charging us any penalty. She also found a solution for us to park our car upon arrival. The staff is super friendly, the room wasn't big but functional & cute, we were able to get the included breakfast in a takeaway box in the morning. Great service ! Thank you for a short but lovely stay

Sano Banano and Montezuma are one of a kind. If you want to experience the vibes of an ocean/jungle surf town, this is it. Staff is great, restaurant is by far the best in town (try the nachos and a “Mocha Chiller” for dessert). Rent some ATVs right across the street, drive around Costa Rica and experience the tropical life! A must try!

We have visited Montezuma 3 times so far and are planning to go again soon. Sano Banano is ALWAYS our place to stay. We would absolutely recommend it to anyone. The location and the beaches are awesome, too. Also, you only need to run out the door to grab all the necessities from a small supermarket next door. Very useful!

Did not stay in the hotel, however the restaurant is amazing. Good food, great views, good service
