Casa Sol - Oceanfront Villa at Hotel Amor de Mar

My place is nestled near the heart of Montezuma. One of the only houses located directly in front of the ocean in this area. Beautiful beaches are on either side of the property within a 10 minute walk and up the river next to the villa is the famous Montezuma waterfall with a big pool. You’ll love my place because of the ocean view, the tide pool in the rocks and the beautiful garden. My villa is great for couples, solo adventurers, families, and honeymooners. Daily cleaning service included!
