Nautilus Surf & Yoga Villas Santa Teresa ★★★

"We stayed in casita no.1 and we are located next to the street and the front door to the hotel. The noise is the issue coming from with 4wheeler ATV and pick-up trucks constantly zig zagging and making a carnage of noise on the street adjacent to our bedroom from what a what peaceful setting this could have been! The other HUGE issue is the front door of the hotel LOUD SLAMMING from morning to late evening. We couldn’t use the hamac for relaxation as there’s no escaping the loudness banging as we are 10feet from door and road. The DOGS ´BARKING & HOWLING will drive you insane troughout the nite and early morning The DUST from the road makes it’s way into our casita no.1 This was an ordeal …. We asked to be moved but we’re told that they were full but I noticed new arrivals constantly. Otherwise…. In the other casitas , I’m sure it is better…. Loved the staff… the pool and proximity of everything around. Pura Vida ! Maybe not at casita no.1"

Hotel Nantipa - A Tico Beach Experience ★★★★★

"Wunderbarer Empfang, sehr freundlich, schöne Zimmer mit allem, was man braucht, eine großartige Poollandschaft -sehr elegant in die Natiur eingepflegt und dennoch nahe zum Strand. Ein Testaurant direkt am Strand mit sehr guter Küche und Sonnenuntergang. Ein Dtrand an dem man ewig spazieren gehen kann ♥️"

Aduana House ★★★

Banana Beach Bungalows ★★★

"This is not a relaxing hotel, but instead a loud party hostel with budget facilities: Music noise - the Banana Beach Club plays very loud music from the afternoon to 10pm which vibrates throughout the room. We were also woken up several times in the early by parties on the beach. You will get very limited sleep staying here. Pool - Most days non-guests use the pool, including loud and rude kids, and on one occasion a kid forced their dog into the pool. Generally it is very dated and very little care is taken in tidiness. Noise from the generators next to pool is constant. Reception - no fixed reception service as a hotel would typically have - one person is available at a “reception” kiosk room between 9am and 4pm. Any assistance needed outside these hours is made via WhatsApp so is not instant. Also we had a power cut for water and electricity on our second day, so could not receive updates as the WiFi was unavailable. Restaurant - the restaurant and hotel are completely separate, apart from the breakfast being complementary for guests, and this is unclear from the website as we only found out upon arrival. This means guests can’t freely use the beach loungers or set up a room tab for food/drinks. No explanation of breakfast, timings - got there at 7am only to be told it starts at 8am so we missed this several times from leaving early for tours/transfer etc. Room - No kettle, coffee machine but no powdered milk/crema. Fridge outside (not in room) and doesn’t open properly as gets caught by the cupboard door latch - kitchen light very dim so difficult to see. Only one bedside table so had to leave belongings on the floor. No clothes hangers or even hooks."

Ventura Santa Teresa ★★★

"Dieses Hotel bekommt im Allgemeinen gute Bewertungen, aber wir waren überrascht und enttäuscht. Unsere größte Sorge war die Größe – die Zimmer sind sehr klein, fast unbequem. Es fühlte sich an, als ob wir in einem Studentenwohnheim wohnten. Es war sehr eng für zwei Personen und sicherlich weder romantisch noch bequem für einen Pärchenaufenthalt. Wir haben es nicht genossen, in einem Etagenbett zu schlafen. Abgesehen davon war das Zimmer neu, sauber und hatte alles, was wir brauchten. Es gibt auch ein Restaurant vor Ort und einen winzigen Pool. Es ist im Grunde wie ein Hostel. Achtung, es liegt am südlichen Ende von Santa Teresa und wir fühlten uns ein wenig isoliert. Ich würde empfehlen, nach einem Ort etwa eine Meile/km nördlicher, mehr in Richtung Zentrum zu suchen. Aber es gibt einen Lebensmittelladen direkt auf der anderen Straßenseite und auch eine Wäscherei und ein paar Cafés. Es ist schön, dass dieses Hotel neu ist, aber die Zimmer sind wiederum sehr klein und unbequem. Ich kann mir vorstellen, dass es schwer ist, in dieser kleinen Strandstadt luxuriöse Orte zu finden, ohne ein Vermögen zu bezahlen. Wenn Sie nach etwas Schönem suchen, würde ich Santa Teresa wahrscheinlich ganz meiden."

Blooma Boutique Hotel & Kosher Restaurant ★★★★

"The best hotel experience we had in a very long time. We were welcomed with complementary house cocktails upon checking in ( we also got an early check-in with no charge ) Everything is a brand new with top of the line facility and super thoughtful service. The pool in the Jacuzzi were great, the breakfast was super good and the cocktails are all handcrafted and very tasteful. They even have an elevator which I personally never saw in any hotel in Santa Teresa before. The room was very cozy with high ceilings and a nice balcony facing the pool , super comfortable king size bed, and very spacious shower and bathroom space. The Concierge helped us book a four wheeler rental, surfing lesson, and even a flight from Santa Teresa to San Jose. Very good experience in all aspects and we definitely coming back. Thank you for making our stay so special ❤️"

Zula Inn Aparthotel ★★

"Fabelhafte Selbst-Bungalows, aus der Hauptstraße so schön und ruhig gesetzt. Schönes Pool-Gebiet, das wir nutzen konnten, auch mit dem torrennten Niedergang wir waren unglücklich, jeden Abend zu haben! Groß für Wildlife-Spotting, wir hatten einen Armadillo besucht uns 2 Nächte und unsere ersten Toucans! Wirklich komfortable Hammock :)"
