Pura Vida
Welcome to Las Delicias in Puntarenas, Costa Rica - a hidden treasure in the centre of the tropical landscapes that make the country so unique. This small village, located between the more tourism towns of Montezuma and Santa Teresa, exudes a special tranquillity. It is a place where life pulsates at a slower pace, in harmony with the lush nature that surrounds the people here every day.
Surrounded by green hills
The streets of Las Delicias are lined with green hills covered in exotic plants and colourful flowers. The sounds of nature - the chirping of crickets, the calls of exotic birds and the rustling of the wind through the leaves - form a natural symphony that invites you to linger and take a deep breath. In the early morning, a light mist envelops the area in a mystical atmosphere before the rising sun colours the surroundings in a warm, golden light.
The community in Las Delicias is small and warm. The people live in harmony with nature and tradition and are proud of their friendly hospitality. Here you can forget everyday life and enjoy the moment. The warmth and community characterise this place and make it an authentic retreat for our guests. The proximity to the beautiful beaches in Montezuma and Santa Teresa make this place a paradise where you can relax after day trips.
Grocery shopping
We love supporting our local dealers. Just a ten-minute walk from Roca Selva, you will find two small supermarkets that offer everything you need for your daily needs. We prefer to go to Super Mario. For your bulk shopping, we recommend Megasuper in Cobano, which is 15 minutes away by car. In Cobano you will also find a drugstore, bakery, butcher, greengrocers and much more.
Local restaurants
In the immediate vicinity you will find the traditional Restaurant y Marisqueria Las Delicias, which serves typical local dishes. There are also other restaurants nearby: the Tierra y Fuego and the Ash Sushi Restaurants y Cafe, the Puggos and the Aves Hotel with adjoining gastronomy.
Montezuma Waterfalls
Are you looking for a magic experience? The 1.4-kilometre out-and-back trail takes you through a lush rainforest that offers an unforgettable adventure at any time of year. The route is moderate and the
main waterfall with its crystal-clear natural pool invites you to refresh and linger. Immerse yourself in the magic of the Montezuma waterfalls.
Organic market
In the neighboring village of Cobano, there is a small but nice organic market on Fridays, which offers lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. The market in Montezuma takes place every Saturday. Here you can find local fruit, vegetables, fish and other delicacies.
ATV rental
