    Americanized beach town. Crowded waters to surf. Really bad infrastructure, roads are bad, no sidewalks and caos in traffic. The beach itself is very beautiful and the waves are nice. Just the vibe is either you love it or you hate it.

    Santa Teresa for us was a completely disastrous in terms of development. I cannot even imagine anyone wanting to live there. The scenery once you get beyond the mishmash of stores 3 centimeters from the really poor roads is wonderful. It is a surfer place and nothing more. I would not ever go back for any reason

    Santa Teresa has the most beautiful beach.

    Santa Teresa has the most beautiful beach. There are so many places to eat that have great food. Santa Teresa does not feel as crowded as some other beaches in Costa Rica, and I honestly feel very safe there. I would highly recommmend this place.

    The property is amazing.

    The property is amazing. The pool is super cute, the rooms are spacious and modern. BUT the Beach Club/Restaurant charged us for things we didn’t order. We will always pay for everything we eat and drink but when things are added on our bills that we didn’t consume, we regretfully are super bitter. The hotel is looking into it and said they will get back to us. They have t yet. Also, they advocate that they are an adult only hotel but there were kids at the restaurant and at pool.

    Wooden shacks with corrugated metal roofs along a dusty dirt road. Restaurants use camping-style kitchens and where they get their groceries with absolutely no decent food market within at least two hours driving is their secret. There is absolutely no sewage system anywhere. Everyone just has a whole in the ground they call ‘septic system’. Just steps from the beach !! Would be interesting to have the water quality tested..

    Lovely.

    Lovely. Beautiful beach with soft sand, wonderful sunsets, great waves, a lot of nature. A bit too many people (lots of surfers) and cars in some parts, but great offer in terms of cafes, restaurants, yoga and surf lessons.

    Best hostel in Santa Teresa! The dorm was huge, with so much space between beds. Because it's not on the main road (super noisy with quads) it was peaceful and silent (except for the howler monkeys and colorful birds that live around it! :)) It's perfect for surfing, literally 2 minutes walk from the beach break of Playa Santa Teresa. Marco and his staff are super helpful and nice. And last but not least, the vibe there was amazing!

    Best hostel in Santa Teresa! We were in town for awhile surfing and loved this accommodation. Beach is a few minutes walk away down a beautiful jungle path, and the hostel is right next to restaurants and a grocery store. Room was perfect, cozy, quiet and had really good AC which is a must in Santa Teresa. The best thing about this place though was the staff who were super friendly and went above and beyond to accommodate.

    The hotel itself is incredible. However, is located up to a huge hill… our car couldnt get there so we had to walk everytime we wanted to go to the beach, eat, have breakfast… NEEDS TO IMPROVE THIS, because is a very nice place. If you are young, dont go here if you want party!!! The hostels are much better in that case, this is a place to relax and chill

    Loved the design and felt like my own private villa at times. Beautiful gardens and wildlife. Loved my white hammock and the linen sheets, bed was really comfy. Breakfast was nice.
