Montezuma, Nicoya Peninsula
Why Costa Rica
Because the place itself does some of the work. Montezuma sits inside one of the world's Blue Zones, where people tend to live long, connected lives at a pace the rest of us have mostly forgotten.
The Blue Zone
Longevity, community, natural beauty
Blue Zones are the handful of regions recognised for unusual longevity, and for the community and natural beauty that seem to go along with it. The Nicoya Peninsula is one of them.
It is a fitting place to spend a week thinking about what a sustainable pace of living actually feels like in the body, rather than as an idea.
Warm mornings, ocean air, and a town small enough to walk. Howler monkeys will wake you before any alarm does.
Where we stay
Aves Hotel and Resort
A twelve-unit luxury eco-boutique hotel with ocean views in the hills above Montezuma town centre, inside one of Costa Rica's designated Blue Zones.
Small on purpose. Twelve units means the group is never lost in a crowd, and the place feels like ours for the week.

- One of Costa Rica's largest ocean-view yoga shalas
- Two swimming pools
- An on-site spa
- Concierge assistance for optional excursions
Within walking distance
