Perfect boutique hotel with incredible views + MONKEYS

Pros: The view was breathtaking and the room was clean and quiet. The staff were personable and helpful. The only noise you could hear in the room was the occasional monkey, which was surreal. The hotel is small and the little pool area is cute. There is a lovely gym and yoga studio. The beach is a block away and there are great restaurants within steps.

Cons: There was nothing that we did not like.

Pros: Amazing staff — super friendly, helpful and kindhearted. Already them alone made Santa Teresa worth it! Also the surf teacher Nacho was great, really knowledgable and kind.

Pros: The location. Close to eateries and Santa Teresa Beach. The breakfast was amazing and the staff so friendly and helpful. And i loved the sound of the howler monkeys in the mornings and early evening.

Cons: Next time i would book a room with AC as it was very hot and exposure to Mosquitos at night.

It was a beautiful property with wonderful people that provided an excellent experience! Pura Vida

Pros: Breakfast was fine would have preferred more options, i.e. yogurt, granola, sausage/bacon, juices. Consistency in portion size and better coffee & amount of coffee would improve the experience. The place was comfortable and staff was friendly. Location was great and scenery and wildlife. Christmas Eve dinner was exceptional Argentinian style (Thanks Juan!) Guido and Franko were wonderful in coordinating excursions. Pool and Pool table were great!

Cons: Coffee was not as good as other establishments and was always low to non available. Bar restaurant closing times were not announced. Some communication was off. The need to mention steep stairs and mosquitos were crazy at night.

Best tree house ever 🩷

Pros: Our room was incredibly beautiful! Stunning terrace, super comfortable and huge bed. The staff was the nicest people ever, they truly made us feel welcome and we loved spending time with them🩷 the bodegón, provides the best food in town, honestly (milanesa is to die for). There scenery and location couldn’t be better, there were monkeys, iguanas around… great pool and great vibes! The pool, the live music night… it all made it and unforgettable stay and we can’t recommend enough!!!! I was an incredible week with you!

Cons: Just recommending earplugs here if you mind the noise. Although you can’t hear the main road and it’s very peaceful, the monkeys in the morning will wake u up!
