Points positifs: Location was good. Pool was refreshing. Laundry service is helpful. I felt safe. Food options very close.

You get your best privacy in cabina 8

Points positifs: Beautiful tropical gardens around our bungalow, spacious accommodation, cosy beach hammocks and loungers and very friendly and helpful staff at reception and restaurant

Points négatifs: Breakfast could have been included, having said that we had a fridge in the room and supermarket was across the road from hotel

Points positifs: Le cours de yoga (même si non inclu)

Points négatifs: Notre chambre était près de la route, très Bruyant Les chambres standards sont très basiques et vieillissantes, le sentiment que l’hôtel est à l’abandon . Je pense qu’il faudrait sérieusement revoir les tarifs des chambres.

Points positifs: Location was incredible - by far the BEST; LOVED the outdoor patio/pool space - luxurious!! Amazing! And stylish! A/C was great! Bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and hot water and water pressure were great! Place was very clean and well-serviced!

Points négatifs: Kitchen was very well stocked with cooking and eating equipment. The appliances were pretty much awful. Could not get the oven to work (no big deal and they had a toaster over which sufficed), the refrigerator was moderately ok, and I was afraid to try the dishwasher. However, pans were plentiful and clean and knives were great! Mattresses were not awful, but not terrific. Living room and kitchen table could use a makeover. All said though, the location definitely made it well-worth it and the patio/pool space was just unbeatable!

Points positifs: great layout that flows down to the beach. very comfortable nooks, with a bar, restaurant and shaded area next to the beach. lunch was amazing, I've never had "tacos" like that! sooooo good. The staff!! in particular Evelyn at the front desk. very helpful, courteous and with a super friendly and kind demeanor.

Points négatifs: room near the street was noisy.

Points positifs: Location, beautiful setting right on the beach with lots of hammocks and chairs. Great spot to watch the sunset

Points négatifs: Didn’t seem to have enough staff, and pool was not very clean

Points positifs: Son emplacement, la chambre, qualité du personnel, direct acces a la plage avec vue sur un superbe couche/leve de soleil

Points négatifs: Petit probleme avec le verrou de la porte. Nous sommes restes bloquer pendant un petit moment... Ceux de la chambre a cote ont ete extremement bruyant jusque tard dans la nuit. Un peu de regulation sur ce point serait appreciable.

Points positifs: N’hésitez pas une seconde Emplacement génial Personnel au top Confort et calme assure J’y retournerai les yeux fermés Nous étions là pour une nuit et nous y sommes restés 3 nuits

Points positifs: Personnel exceptionnel, d’une grande gentillesse qui nous ont conseillé, aidé, pour les activités mais aussi pour tout ce qui concerne notre voyage. La plage est idyllique, et tout est faisable à pied, le cœur de Santa Teresa est à moins de 10 min de marche. Les petits restaurants et coffee shop des alentours sont tous aussi bons les uns que les autres. Réel coup cœur

Points positifs: The staff was very friendly and helpful, they made a world difference in the enjoyment of our stay. They were truly wonderful.

Points négatifs: The limited variety of vegetarian options

Points positifs: Tout à été selon mes attente

Points négatifs: Chambres pas d’air climatisé

Points positifs: Casa Zen is a beautiful accommodation close to the beach. The staff is super friendly and helpful. It’s a place to relax with great Yoga lessons.

Points positifs: Great breakfast, super short walk right to the beach for beautiful sunsets. Friendly vibe.

Points négatifs: No air conditioning, but the room did come with a giant fan which helped at night.

Points positifs: Le calme la zénitude .. havre de paix no stress

Points positifs: On nous offre un breuvage

Points négatifs: Nous sommes arrivé à 19h et notre studio n'était pas nettoyé... On nous a dit qu'il n'y avait pas personne pour le nettoyer!!!

Points positifs: Staff was always helpful. Facilities were kept clean. There was someone always cleaning. Showers were nice. Location to beach was perfect! Breakfast was good also. A laid back relaxed vibe.

Points positifs: Very good common areas, great place to hang out when the beach was top hot. Many toilets, everything was clean and great kitchen space. A good place to stay if you’re looking for some peace and quiet! The yoga classes are great too!

Points négatifs: I move to another hostel and then came back to case zen since I liked it better there so I really don’t have any remarks

Points positifs: Location was good and close to a supermarket

Points négatifs: The first night we arrived, the receptionist was not friendly or welcoming. She asked if we spoke French and that was it. She didn’t explain anything and just opende the door to the room. We had an private room and we didn’t get any towels that where included in the price. The room was not cleaned properly there was sand everywhere and the shower was not working properly.

Points positifs: Staff made efforts to be helpful

Points négatifs: Hot and dusty location

Points positifs: Friendly personal

Points négatifs: Bathrooms are located far away from the upper rooms,and the upper rooms work better for a sauna than a bed room...

Points positifs: The yoga space was so lovely and the teachers were great too! I loved having a class in my day and they have access right on a road down to the beach (which is also amazing) so life is pretty easy! Julio is great and there is a nice chill spot outside to hangout and chat :)

Points négatifs: Sometimes the yoga times clashed with other plans (breakfast/checkout/sunset) nbd just gotta plan your days accordingly. Also! If you're going to do the yoga package make sure you book through their website to get the best price!

Points positifs: Firstly, I really love that Casa Zen has stayed open during this crazy time! It's a minute's walk from the beach, and just off the road so you barely hear the traffic. It lives up to its name as a peaceful place. Julio the owner was very welcoming and helpful, and I also loved the tropical fruits breakfast. Currently (May 2020), there's still a yoga class run in the mornings. The space is a lovely roofed terrace.

Points positifs: Bel agencement, malgré la proximite des bungalows, on se sent isolés.

Points négatifs: Dommage que le personnel ne soit pas plus sympathique et le patron plus accueillant. Petit déjeuner un peu light.

Points positifs: Charmant petit hôtel confortable, calme et paisible au coeur de l’activité de Santa Teresa. Petits-déjeuners délicieux, possibilité d’y faire des sessions de yoga, à 2 pas de la plage... Nous avons adoré!

Points positifs: This was such a lovely lodge. Driving down a white gravel lane to the beautiful entrance of teak wood was so inviting. The room was beautifully furnished and felt homey. Each room had a hammock hanging outside. The staff were so kind and helpful. Breakfast was delicious. A small pool is onsite and the beach is a short walk across the road. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Points positifs: Nous avons tout aimé, nous avons été chaleureusement accueilli par Maria et agréablement servi au petit déjeuner par Richard. L'hôtel est très bien situé à 2 pas de la plage et de la route principale de restos et surfshop. L'hôtel est très calme, confortable, fonctionnel et chaleureux.

Points positifs: L’accueil, le service, le logement, l’emplacement . Tout était parfait avec un très bon rapport qualité/prix.

Points négatifs: RAS

Points positifs: La chambre est très jolie et très confortable (grand lit, coffre, clim, ventilateur, moustiquaires..) La piscine est agréable. L’hôtel est situé à même pas 10 mètres de la plage c’est super. Petit déjeuner un peut léger selon moi

Points positifs: Great breakfast, helpful staff, quiet santuary

Points négatifs: Nothing

Points positifs: Lovely hotel, right in the middle of Santa Teresa and only a few minutes walk down to the beach. The pool was a perfect place to relax and breakfast was delicious. I took a couple of surf lessons with Richard which were great fun and very good value for money compared to the surf schools in the area.

Points positifs: The care of the staff, yoga platform, pool proximity to beach

Points négatifs: Not the fault of the hotel but there was construction going on right next door with very noisy work commencing at 0700! (Feb2020)

Points positifs: Great place for relaxing! Clean, comfortable, good food and friendly staff. And don’t miss the excellent and fun surf lessons by Richard who works at the hotel.

Points négatifs: Nothing

Points positifs: Set back 50m from the dusty madness of the main beach road this hotel is a haven of peace. Much care has been taken with the design of the buildings and rooms. Here we had one of our favourite bathrooms during our trip. The grounds and pool area are well kept too.

Points positifs: Le logement est près de la mer ( route à traverser). Plage avec des belles vagues mais très agréable même si on n'est pas surfer. Très belle piscine . Plusieurs zones de détente à disposition ( hamac grand canapé)

Points négatifs: La route d'accès n'est pas bitumée et il y a beaucoup de poussière. Les restaurants , beaucoup en bord de route , ne sont de ce fait pas très agréables.

Points positifs: Comfortable bungalow, directly on beach.

Points négatifs: Breakfast should be included, bungalows were very close together.

Points positifs: Jolie endroit. Belle piscine au milieu. Déjeuné très bon! Cocktails excellents Jolie lodge et coup de coeur pour la salle de bain extérieure.

Points négatifs: Le cour de yoga était moyen. La partie plage n'est pas trop aménagée. Rapport qualité prix vraiment très moyen.

Points positifs: The beach front location. The architecture of the villa: I felt I was staying in a tree house! The pool was beautiful and so was the yoga studio, although didn't have the chance to take any class. Friendly staff. Breakfast was great.

Points négatifs: The villas in the back, where we were staying, are very close to each other... the bed was a bit uncomfortable and the pillows are way too thick so I hurt my neck.

Points positifs: - the resort and villas are breathtaking and very well kept right at a beautiful beach - food and drinks at the restaurant were very tasty - yoga classes were very professional in a beautiful hall

Points négatifs: - the front desk staff were friendly but disoriented - i booked a specific treatment from their huge spa menu, but the masseuse was 15min late, had no idea what massage I booked and didnt understand when I talked about it, so she just did freestyle for 90min. It was relaxing but why bother advertising so many different styles. - only 1 yoga class per day is included (there are usually 2 per day for 15$). We thought this was odd in an expensive stay at a „yoga resort“ to pay extra for classes. - it always took 1 hour for the food to arrive at the restaurant. this is no problem as you are on holiday, but keep in mind when you book a massage or want to be ready for yoga.

Points positifs: Access to the beach, although a very rocky beach, and villas around a nice swimming pool. The yoga class was nice and accommodating for all experience levels.

Points négatifs: Upon arriving the first night, we were told there were no rooms, despite us booking on booking.com with a confirmation. After some confusion, an available room was “discovered.” After settling in for our stay, I received a call at 10am saying we had to move to a different villa. The new one had no windows and only screens and a tiny twin mattress where every spring could be felt. Not quite the relaxing vacation that their website suggests. The icing on the cake was at check out, when I noticed that their restaraunt had mistakenly included another tables meal on our tab. The hotel manager not only gave me attitude, but suggested that I was trying to cheat the hotel. When I asked to speak with the owner out of frustration, he suggested that the owner would not do anything since the manager had been employed by them for ten years. As a customer, it was shocking to experience this. I foolishly paid for both checks, and I will definitely be vocal in my experience with Pranamar.

Points positifs: Best yoga we ever had. Great staff who seems genuinely happy and proud to be working at Pranamar. No aggressive sales pitches. Beautiful and clean lodges.

Points positifs: Right on the beach, nice food, nice yoga class, people come from all around the beach for the yoga class. Very big room and nice outside shower, and stuff is also nice.

Points négatifs: On the beach, but you can't get in the water, really rocky, and far from all the restaurants and any other businesses. Property is very nice but require some maintenance, and for the price asked, you expect much more.

Points positifs: Great place , for the calm reading by the pool and relax beach ,surf & Yoga . Beautiful garden . Attentive staff. Like everywhere in Costa Rica Be mindful of the animal thief : Racoon ( should put baby lock on fridges) .

Points négatifs: No pancake :) for breakfast

Points positifs: Beautiful facilities and amazing villa with the pool one step from the deck. Amazing location right on the beach with fabulous restaurant on location. Very tranquil and restful. Beach walk in either direction. Hardly anyone about. Kids had an awesome first surfing lesson. Daily yoga top notch. Never wanted to leave the property !

Points négatifs: Not much to the “village” of St. Theresa or the other little towns on the strip. Rough crowded dusty road. Very hot beaches did not seem very welcoming (little shade). Long road with major construction and rough patches to get to the area. Best to just stay at Pranamar !!

Points positifs: Confortable beds

Points négatifs: Too much Noise around and animals inside the villa

Points positifs: La situation du bungalow face à la plage, le site.Le restaurant est très bon mais trop cher par rapport à d autres restaurants aux alentours qui proposent de belles prestations

Points négatifs: L hôtel est en vente et ça se ressent.L entrée donne une mauvaise impression dès le départ, il faut chercher tant bien que mal la réception.Jardins mal entretenus et pas possible de se baigner sur la plage juste en face.Attention 5$ en sus si vous demandez la moindre livraison dans la chambre.

Points positifs: It was awesome! Great location

Points positifs: we stayed in one of the little villas. It was very private. Quit and so beautiful and clean. The housekeeping staff was very friendly. I would highly recommend this place.

Points négatifs: I did not like the restaurant on the beach. It was very cool lots of seating options. Although every day I walked down with my baby to get breakfast or lunch and not one time did a server come up to us and ask if we wanted something. We waited 45 min the one day till I finally asked for a menu. After that I had to go up to the bar to order. I realize Costa Rica is very layed back. I have traveled the country extensively the past 9 years. But the service was the worst I havhave seen. And I never usually complain. I was really excited about chilling by the beach all day but the service really turned me off. It's to bad because the front dest staff was so lovely and housekeeping was also lovely. Not sure why the servers were so unattentive...

Points positifs: The property was our very own paradise. We stayed at Villa Bonita and they took care of all of our needs! Cleaned our clothes, cleaned out the pool daily and the bbq pit! Cleaned the house daily! When we called for anything that needed to be fixed it was fixed pronto! Janet the housekeeper, Danielle the concierge, and ToTo the excursion agent all were fantastic

Points négatifs: Nothing

Points positifs: Clean Location Quiet Nice restaurant/bar Beach 100meters away

Points positifs: I loved the location. The restaurant affiliated with the bungalows was convenient and the direct access to the beach was awesome! Sylvia was a fantastic massage therapist I highly recommend her services.

Points négatifs: There was no access to ice unless you payed for it at the restaurant. The restaurant manager was arrogant and slightly condescending. There was extreme noise one night from another hotel that threw a raging party until 3:30am. That was difficult to sleep through. The check out process was strange as we had to leave at 8:00 am and no one from the bungalow staff was present to return our beach towel deposits. We had to WhatsApp the bungalow manager and gave the restaurant return our deposits which was confusing and hand in our keys. There was not clear instructions upon check in to give us a heads up. Overall everything was lovely only a few things to consider if you stay here!

Points positifs: La chambre

Points négatifs: Le bruit de la route et le passage des quais incessant

Points positifs: Villa was really great, clean, three of the rooms have plenty of space, one is small. We loved the kitchen is outside and the pool to relax. Very close to beach, restaurants and grocery stores.

Points négatifs: Emilya and Danielle were great hosts, respond quickly to our questions and we're very kind. The person at the reception otherwise was careless and we felt almost threatened when he told us we were not able to pay with a credit card even though booking.com said they accepted them, be prepared.

Points positifs: We loved Banana Beach. Great location in town, restaurant has amazing food, and Great wait staff. Beautiful beach and music and entertainment.

Points négatifs: The noise late at night and early in the morning.

Points positifs: Bungalows are great and location is perfect.excelent beach.

Points négatifs: The hotel should have beach chairs under the palm trees....

Points positifs: Small, polished hotel within an easy walk to the beach, but off the main road, quiet and intimate. Big, clean villas. Overall a pleasant stay.

Points négatifs: We arrived around 3pm, check in starts at 2pm, yet nobody was at the reception already (they left us a message to contact them). After a 5hr journey an offer of water or coffee would’ve also been nice. We were also initially disappointed with the quality of included (but not free!) breakfasts (which were not the same as the hotel restaurant’s ones), but one word to the manager remedied that and I trust they will improve on that score.

Points positifs: Notre plus belle chambre de notre séjour au Costa Rica avec une terrasse très privée et une belle piscine pour un prix reasonable

Points positifs: Hôtel discret, reparti sur plusieurs bâtiments, dont une villa 2 chambres, que nous avions loué. Confortable, la villa comporte une petite cuisine, avec tout le nécessaire et la vaisselle, un salon / TV, deux chambres (une avec grand lit et salle de bain/wc communicante, l'autre avec deux lits plus petits et une salle de bain attenante). C'est propre, la literie est confortable. Climatisation efficace. C'est calme, bien à l'écart de la route. Large terrasse appréciable, avec table et banquette. Petite piscine et solarium. Restaurant ouvert de 7AM à 2PM. Petits déjeuners simples et corrects, et choix assez large disponible à la carte. Produits frais et bien cuisinés, dans la mouvance Bio / Veg du coin. Très belle plage à 500m, avec une petite route à traverser.

Points négatifs: Scandaleux : lors du check-in, on nous a demandé de payer en espèces ou, sinon, de prendre à notre charge un supplément de 5% pour un paiement en carte bancaire. On nous a gentiment indiqué où se trouvait les distributeurs de billets ...

Points positifs: This hotel is a great place to relax. It’s perfectly located, close to nice restaurants and the surf spot of Santa Teresa but at the same time a little hidden, with a relaxing pool area and yoga deck. Not much noise apart from birds and howler monkeys. Our villa was spacious, clean and the bed was so comfy! Staff was very friendly and offered us a smoothie upon arrival. Felt very special!

Points négatifs: Our bathroom sink was leaking and our last breakfast was not as good as the first two but apart from that, everything was amazing.

Points positifs: Lovely hotel, very friendly staff

Points négatifs: If you have a light sleep, the room next to the street can be a bit loud

Points positifs: Beautiful place, very calm, beautiful yoga studio, great breakfast and the staff at the reception was very kind and helpful.

Points négatifs: The water of the swimming pool should be cleaner.

Points positifs: We loved this place! I did yoga in the early evenings which was a lovely way to end the afternoon before dinner. The breakfast was delicious and all the staff were so helpful. This is such a peaceful spot off the main road and I would love to go back!

Points négatifs: The bathroom had some wear and tear and it would have been nice to have coffee/milk in the kitchen area. There are no views from the rooms - all windows are quite high up.

Points positifs: Nice place. Stayed just one night on are way home but can recommend the hotel for those who want to spend more time there. Yoga classes on the premisses and just a short walk to the beaches.

Points positifs: Super clean, fully equipped and cosí place.

Points positifs: Really spacious apartment, very clean, great yoga sessions, lovely pool area and really close to a beautiful beach. Great stay!

Points négatifs: Only small niggle was that the additional taxes and add on costs on check in, plus the extra charge for paying on card made it one of the more time expensive places we stayed during our trip, and any yoga classes etc were all charged as extras whereas other places we stayed included this

Points positifs: Beau design, calme et confortable

Points positifs: Location + friendly and helpful owners

Points négatifs: Cold water only!

Points positifs: The layout, pool, plant life, and it was VERY CLEAN!

Points positifs: The room was spacious. The common outdoor kitchen was great and it was nice to have separately allocated storage space for dry food and in the fridge for all rooms. We also liked the pool area. The owners keep the place well organized and helped us with all our questions, and also the other staff were super nice. The location is perfect for going to the beach and surfing (3 mins from the beach) and there are many nice restaurants nearby.

Points négatifs: We really liked the place, only one minor thing: There was a faint smell of insect repellant in the room - but I guess that’s what you need in order to keep the room free of bugs.

Points positifs: Loved the location, close to the beach, surf shops and restaurants. Friendly and nice owners. The room was ok with a bed and bathroom. Loved the terrace and great with a common kitchen since buying breakfast at a restaurant can be very expensive. Cozy pool area!

Points négatifs: Could have been nice with a door to the bathroom

Points positifs: Très agréable moment, proximité directe avec la plage de Santa Teresa, chambre spacieuse avec de nombreux rangements. Un accueil agréable et de bons conseils

Points positifs: Location and staff

Points négatifs: All good.

Points positifs: Emplacement parfait à 2 pas de la plage et proche de toutes commodités Le lieu est très beau, fleuri et parfaitement entretenu et la piscine est vraiment appréciable

Points négatifs: Pas de petit déjeuner proposé (sauf le café)

Points positifs: The property is beautiful, the cabins are nicely designed, clean, the grounds are very lush, the kitchen super practical and well organized, the pool a very nice plus, the location ideal for beach access. This place is a little gem.

Points négatifs: Nothing, everything was great.

Points positifs: We had a really beautiful room, everything was really clean! The location was fabulous!

Points négatifs: Nothing

Points positifs: Tout était parfait, l’accueil de Mélanie, très disponible et de bon conseils pour ce qu’il y a à faire dans les environs. La piscine a bonne température Tout est parfaitement entretenu La cuisine ou on trouve tout ce qu’il faut pour se faire les repas

Points positifs: The owners are very welcoming and helpful, the room was clean and the accomodation is cute.

Points positifs: Endroit calme malgré la proximité de la route Cuisine commune pour des repas éventuels Pas de petit-déjeuner proposé, mais café servi tous les matins à 7h Accueil agréable Proximité de la magnifique plage de Santa Teresa, avec ses couchers de soleil exceptionnels Climatisation

Points négatifs: La poussière de la route devant l'hôtel Le prix de la nuitée ( trop cher !) Devoir régler la première nuit à la réservation

Points positifs: We loved staying at Canaima Chill House! What a beautiful place! Wonderful location! A bit uphill but ok if you have a car. Staff was so kind and helpful. Beautiful rooms with big terrace.

Points positifs: The balcony, shower with glass and the pool and jacuzzi.

Points négatifs: The route from the mainstreet to the hotel. You can walk but it is to much to handle, you need the car to go to the beach. And there is a good Italian bakery in the mainstreet.

Points positifs: The rooms are spacious and well equipped. Nice to live in a sort of apartment during travelling. We were lucky that all the other people were very quite and respectful which helped to get the right atmosphere. A bit of a spa feeling. Especially cause of the beautiful private relax places. The beach is just down the road, but the road is steep. Without a car it’s a bit of a walk. Rooms are very well cleaned, every day.

Points négatifs: We had to wait to check in, the room was ready at 3:30 pm. Would have been nice if they offered us a drink while waiting. You can’t drink the tap water so it would have been nice to have bottles on the room or filtered water. The sound of the jacuzzi. It’s not really necessarily to have it on all day, people only get in in the evening anyway. We had a visit of a tarantula on the main deck. Beautiful and scary at the same time, although they are not dangerous for people.

Points positifs: La décoration Le calme de l’hôtel Le cadre exceptionnel

Points négatifs: Nous n’avons malheureusement pas eu de clim durant les 2 nuits qui sont tout de même bien chaudes. Nous aurions aimé que l’hôtel propose un petit déjeuner.

Points positifs: Tranquilité, le style de l erablissement est de tres bon gout.

Points négatifs: Rien

Points positifs: Crazy nice terrace and pretty nice pool area (with cold water) as well. Clean, comfortable and different. Wow effect may happen.

Points négatifs: The property is not easy to reach with front wheel SUV. Be sure to have awd - it’s located on top of a steep bad conditions hill. They said to have informed about this, but it still came as a surprise when got there, as it really was not emphasized anyhow. Also the reception was (at first) hesitant find solution to get our luggage 200m up the very steep hill, but eventually offered to pick them up some way.

Points positifs: Une suite spacieuse, ombragée , ouverte sur une végétation luxuriante / la douche dans la jungle incroyable / les espaces extérieurs supers

Points négatifs: L’accessibilité du lieu compliqué surtout quand il pleut mais c’est le prix à payer pour être loin de l’agitation de la rue principale

Points positifs: Le cadre est très agréableau milieu de la forêt. L'espace commun avec piscine et zone de chill est extraordinaire !! La chambre est spacieuse et la terrasse aussi. Réveil très agréable avec vu sur la jungle. Un des meilleurs hôtel de notre séjour au Costa Rica.

Points négatifs: Rien.

Points positifs: The location was very nice. Canaima chill house certainly didn’t steal its name.

Points négatifs: Nothing

Points positifs: Très belle décoration , grande chambre confortable et calme, très jolis piscine et spa

Points négatifs: la localisation n'est pas terrible

Points positifs: La déco de la chambre, le jacuzzi, le confort de la chambre

Points négatifs: Un peu difficile d'accès

Points positifs: Beautiful room Away from dusty road in town Lots of places to chill out Monkeys came very close to pool area

Points négatifs: It was dusty due to road being close

Points positifs: Villa élégante et confortable Vue sur l’océan fabuleuse Accueil tres sympathique

Points positifs: Endroit paradisiaque ! La piscine et la vue WoW ! Le personnel est vraiment gentil. Tout était parfait Pura Vida

Points positifs: La piscine et la vue

Points négatifs: Pas de moustiquaires Logements sommaires et difficile d'accès.

Points positifs: Great location. Nice and quiet. It is walking distance to the little charming town, with many restaurants options. The infinity pool is beautiful. The beauch is also walking distance, paradise for surfers. We would come back for sure.

Points positifs: We liked the warm welcome. The room was very clean. We appreciate a lot the coffee and the fresh fruits offered. The swimming pool and the view of the ocean make you feel in the paradise. All the staff was very friendly and we liked a lot the family atmosphere. We will definitely come back

Points négatifs: Nothing I can think of...

Points positifs: Très bel emplacement. Vue magnifique sur l’océan. Très bon accueil et personnel très présent pour nous aider

Points négatifs: Pas de petit déjeuner sur place. Mais néanmoins la possibilité de le prendre dans l’hôtel à côté. Nous avions une clé pour y accéder. Le paiement immédiat d’un acompte à la réservation via un compte bancaire et le solde uniquement en cash

Points positifs: Great location set right in town only a short walk down the hill to restaurants and the beach. The salt water pool is the perfect temperature and exactly what you want after a long day in the sun! Staff and owner were amazing and friendly. Helped us get set up with ATV’s and restaurant recommendations.

Points négatifs: Bring comfortable shoes Its a little walk up the hill, but the view makes it worth it. We also encountered a couple HUGE spiders and a scorpion in our room. It’s Costa Rica and we kind of expected it.

Points positifs: Location House Rooms Service Help Staff Price

Points positifs: We stayed at the 3-bedroom suite which is wonderful. The staffs are very helpful and friendly. There are nice coffee and fruits in the public area. The view of the sunset is great. It's close to restaurants, supermarket and beach. The owners are very responsive and helpful answering our questions and helping us arranging transportation. The setting is beautiful with a nice pool. There is also a yoga place at the hotel with all the items provided. The suite also has a full kitchen although we did not use it.

Points négatifs: We were there when the weather was really hot. It was a bit hard for us to walk the short distance to the beach under such heat. People with a vehicle would have no problem on that one.

Points positifs: Sweeping views & the pools

Points positifs: J'ai aimé le fait d'être sur la colline avec vue sur l'océan J'ai aimé la gentillesse du personnel et notamment Stéphanie (l'allemande) qui a été toujours adorable, avec le sourire et qui m'a donné 2h de cours de surf très chouettes. J'ai aimé l'architecture du lieu de type mexicain. Lieu très propre et restaurants à proximité immédiate

Points négatifs: Chambre dans le passage. Donc pas d'intimité si les rideaux n'étaient pas tirés (et alors sentiment d'enfermement) Juste à côté de la piscine dont les sons résonnent et donc dès qu'il y a des enfants ou des groupes d'amis, c'était très bruyant Depuis la colline, on entend beaucoup les motos dans la rue principale - et Santa Teresa en est plein ! Ce n'est pas un hôtel pour des personnes seules car il n'y a que 4 chambres réduites et le reste, ce sont des appartements où des groupes peuvent loger - ils se connaissent donc communication réduite

Points positifs: L'accueil est vraiment exceptionnel, stefani et Andre ont été adorables. Ne pas hésiter à leur demander conseil pour les activités a faire ils nous ont parfaitement renseignés et ont même réservé pour nous ! La vue depuis l'hôtel est magnifique. Chambre grande et le lit est très confortable. Merci pour tout et nous avons déjà envie de revenir .

Points négatifs: Rien

Points positifs: Everything was as described. Bungalows and area was super clean.

Points positifs: Le bungalow au calme La piscine La possibilité de faire sa cuisine

Points négatifs: Rien

Points positifs: We stayed for 14 nights. We searched for a family hotel with central location, air conditioner, kitchen to cook simple meals, two bedrooms, and a pool. We got all the requests fulfilled, but it is not a 5 star hotel. A super plus was the owner Rotinem who gave us reliable information and booked every activity we asked for. This was very valuable and saved us a lot of time! We really liked the athmoshere at Zulainn Hotel. Highly recommended!

Points positifs: The pool and surrounding areas are like a little slice of tropical paradise! The hammock outside the bungalow was perfect to relax in.

Points positifs: La localisation et la tranquillité

Points positifs: The staff, daily cleaning, the location, the pool: everything was perfect :).

Points négatifs: Nothing!

Points positifs: Super piscine, la petite terrasse privative avec hamac, employés souriants et serviables.

Points négatifs: L équipement de la cuisine est usé jusqu'à l os au point où cela devient dangereux d utiliser les cassroles et les poêles. J ai demandé à avoir une nouvelle poele mais elle n a pas ete changee. Le frigo congele tout ce qui est mis dedans. c était une grosse déception. Lit très étroit et à ressort très sensible!

Points positifs: Great lication a 2 min walk across to Banana Beach

Points négatifs: Extra bed was hard to sleep on

Points positifs: Great pool and facilities in the place, great location, close to all the good place for the sunset, restaurants and more. Totally great value for money.

Points positifs: Was completely detached. Had kitchenette and we were close to the pool. Loved the free tea n coffee! Social area was really nice. Not far to get groceries. Really like our stay here.

Points négatifs: Could do with better windows to keep out the noise from the builders merchants next door.

Points positifs: Very clean with comfortable beds and linens Love the pool, Rancho and grounds. The staff work hard maintaining the property. Thanks for the great week

Points positifs: Bungalows dans un jardin luxuriant avec la petite piscine au milieu pour se rafraîchir en fin de journée. Un supermarché juste à côté et un parking gratuit dans l’hôtel. L’accès à la plage est facile et à pieds pour la plus proche. Même si les bungalows font un peu vieillot ils sont très fonctionnels et le ménage est fait et les serviettes changées tous les jours ! En cadeau spectacle des colibris qui butinent dans les fleurs du jardin !

Points négatifs: Les écureuils qui jettent des fruits sur le toit le matin !!!!

Points négatifs: Full of insectes and it was raining in the room

Points positifs: Location was great, property was beautiful as Lea was so helpful. Great value and we loved Banana Beach.

Points négatifs: No storage for clothes..

Points positifs: La cabine était confortable, l'air climatisé très appréciable et le fait que la cuisine soit à l'extérieur était très agréable. La végétation offrait un bel écran d'intimité.

Points négatifs: Les photos de la piscine nous donnaient l'impression d'un lieu un peu plus vaste et sympathique. La piscine rafraîchit, mais c'est plutôt coincé comme espace.

Points positifs: Quitter les lieux, oublier cette mauvaise expérience, la pire sur un séjour d'un mois.

Points négatifs: Nous avons écourté notre séjour de 15 jours......à 2 nuits, c'était le maximum supportable après 2 nuits sans climatisation, l'impossibilité d'utiliser la douche, le lavabo, le frigo....A notre arrivée, pas d'accueil personnalisé, des pilules, du plastique et des excréments d'animaux jonchent le sol de la petite cour. Le lieu semble à l'abandon, au bord d'une route très bruyante, la description et les photos en ligne annoncent un parking surveillé, des jeux pour enfants, un accès direct à la plage, un barbecue, des hamacs, tout cela concerne en fait leur villa privée ou l'hôtel restaurant d'à côté par lequel il faut passer pour accéder à la plage magnifique de Santa Teresa. Pauvre Leah, qui anticipe très bien l'arrivée des voyageurs, mais qui est complètement dépassée par la négligence des propriétaires, cupides et peu compatissants de notre situation, nous avons dû changer tout notre voyage et trouver autre chose, pour environ 1000 euros de plus.....En bref, des photos mensongères, un lieu globalement cher bien que vétuste, sale et très très sombre, à éviter absolument au vu du large choix que propose Santa Teresa. Nous avons été contraints de payer nos 2 premières nuits dans cet enfer, et avons heureusement récupéré le reste de notre argent. Les propriétaires nous ont demandé, en échange de ne pas relater cette expérience, mais j'ai pensé aux prochains malchanceux......qu'ils soient avertis!!!!

Points positifs: Lovely little cabin 2 min walk from the beach. Staff were very helpful and help us arrange quad hire and surf lessons which were great.

Points négatifs: Right next to the road so can be very noisy at night due to the bikes in the town.

Points positifs: The locations was wonderful. Just a few minutes walking from the beach. Family friendly. Across the street from a natural grocery store, ice cream store, and bakery.

Points négatifs: Lots of dust from being so close to the dirt road. The room door did not have the option to be closed without being locked and we got locked out once. The water facet from the outdoor kitchen sink was not working properly.

Points positifs: The location is absolutely amazing - just steps from a beautiful beach. There are many cafe's and shops within walking distance too. The management was a pleasure do deal with as well.

Points positifs: Place was perfect for what we wanted. Cute little cabina near the beach. Nice lanai with working kitchen. Had a lot of character while still having everything you need. Air conditioning and hot water work great. Location is amazing. For the price range you can’t beat it.

Points positifs: The location of the hostel was perfect, right next to the beach, shops and restaurants. If as set back off the road so was quiet at night. The pool was excellent and very clean, the outside communal area was welcoming and plenty of space to sit or grab a hammock. Surf board rental was cheap and lots of different boards available. Felt very safe in the property and all staff were really friendly and helpful with local information. Room was good value for money for the area

Points négatifs: The room was a bit small with nowhere to unpack clothes - but this was as expected as we chose a budget room so still good value for the area.

Points positifs: The free coffee in the morning, the swimming pool in the afternoon. The nice garden to hang out and the staff was awesome and friendly !!!

Points négatifs: No bad thing to said

Points positifs: The commune area with pool, outdoor kitchen, hammocks and a lot of tales is amazing. We just loved to chill and relax there. It has a lot of toilets. Everything was clean.

Points négatifs: The pool was full of leaves.

Points positifs: Deux cuisine commune pour se faire a manger. Loin de la route ce qui veut dire loin de la poussière

Points négatifs: Le personnel sont des étrangers qui demeurent sur place. La propreté et le rangement ( peu être l'application des règlements) n'était pas celle habituelle du Costa Rica.

Points positifs: les gens etaient super sympas

Points positifs: Good vibes in a quite place close to the beach

Points négatifs: -

Points négatifs: Tres cher pour qualité médiocre. C'est une arnaque de payer 90$ une cabine de cet qualité.

Points positifs: Pool and staff were good

Points négatifs: Location and not really clean

Points positifs: Personnel sympa. L'emplacement génial, à deux pas des spots de surf.

Points positifs: Nice little lodge and it looked like an oasis

Points positifs: L'ambiance et la déco

Points négatifs: Un peu cher pour les prestations comparé à l'hôtel Luna Llena de Montezuma qui est moins cher et pourtant beaucoup plus confortable. Ils n'acceptent pas les cartes

Points négatifs: Trop cher !

Points positifs: Excelente ubicación

Points négatifs: Bed was really bumpy and uncomfortable.

Points positifs: l'espace commune cuisine.

Points négatifs: Salle de bain besoin de rénovation. Jardin non entretenu.

Points positifs: Rien

Points négatifs: Négligence de l’endroit. Lit inconfortable, vieux drap usé et filet d’eau pour la douche.

Points positifs: The pool is really fun, there's a pool table, big dining room and an amazing staff. Great location, near supermarket and the banana beach. Shanti is the best!!!

Points négatifs: Some ants and insects in the room. In reality the shower has only cold and hot modes, not an in between.

Points positifs: Séjour sympathique dans cet Hostel à proximité immédiate de la plage. Possibilité de louer des surfs, gros plus. Chambre spacieuse, mais donnant sur la cour intérieure avec pas mal de bruit le soir, un peu dommage. Le petit déjeuner était très copieux, et très bon !

Points positifs: The hostel vibe, pool and layout was good, breakfast was nice.

Points négatifs: The value of the private room did not match the cost. The bed was vert uncomfortable, bathroom was not clean and got an electric shock from the shower which the hostel was aware (it also happened to our neighbours next door).

Points positifs: Place is BEAUTIFUL. Vibe and location is amazing as well, loved the pool. The staff was very friendly as well. Price value is very good.

Points négatifs: Breakfast wasn't that good but you get what you pay for.

Points positifs: The nicest hostel I found in Santa Teresa! Included hot water, air conditioning, breakfast, a pool and free yoga!! Quiet in the evenings, easy to sleep. Great vibe. Friendly community aspect. Great deal for the price I paid also. Thank you soldiers.

Points négatifs: Our shower. The tiles had been painted and the paint was chipping and clogging the drain. Pretty gross. I mentioned it to the front desk upon check out.

Points positifs: Super nice staff nice, sweet location, awesome pool, BBQ, and art area

Points négatifs: That my vacation was ending

Points positifs: The location is awesome, just a short walk away from the beach and the town. Breakfast was yummy and the staff was super friendly. Free yoga classes and aquagym included. Comfortamble facilities and nice pool too!

Points négatifs: The AC of the suite deluxe was not strong enough and it got really hot during the afternoon. In addition, for the same price you can get a better room somewhere else.

Points positifs: Proximité du centre ville et des plages

Points négatifs: Piscine très sale impossible de s’y baigner

Points positifs: Breakfast and Sushi dinner were delicious! Location was great--short walk to the beach, off main road, but close enough to get anywhere easily. We did a combo of walking and driving to get around.

Points négatifs: We had a little trouble with the plumbing in the rooms, but the staff took action immediately and fixed everything.

Points positifs: Really super lovely staff - Guido and Diego in particular went out of their way to help us, and Eli (one of the yoga instructors) did some baby sitting for us so we could head out for a couple of evenings. Yoga lessons were great, food was yummy and the pool was lovely and great for kids. Very close to the beach, a supermarket and some nice restaurants. Our room was at the very top of the property and the view was insane - sunsets out across the coastline.

Points négatifs: Our room was quite pricey considering breakfast and yoga was not included (we did know this when booking). Also can only pay cash which is common for the area but still frustrating. Also (fine for us) but be warned some of the accommodation is up quite a few (nearly 200) steps which makes for fab views but not for everyone!

Points positifs: Beautiful location. Great staff, very friendly and personal, they all called us by our names. Lovely pool for evening swims after a long day at the beach. The food was absolutely delicious, best in town! Nice to live a little bit away from the busy and dusty main road.

Points négatifs: The bed and pillows weren’t too comfy. A bit pricy but I think most places in Santa Teresa are more expensive than average CR.

Points positifs: The staff was amazing, the bungalows super cute. Close to the beach, Great surf lessons, Everybody was like a big happy, crazy family.

Points négatifs: cash only

Points positifs: The treetop apartment is well furnished and equipped with a large balcony and amazing view. The yoga classes are offered several times a day, are varied and the instructors are great. The pool is well maintained and refreshing for a swim in the shade during the mid-day heat. The beach access is close as is a grocery store, many restaurants and a great ice cream shop. The canopy view was nice for spotting wildlife (monekys, parakeets, bats, lizards, vultures etc.) and listening to the howler monkeys.

Points négatifs: There are over 200 stairs to get to the lower treetop apartment and the climb in the heat is a cardio workout and not for everyone. The doors have a large gap by the floor so easy for bugs to come in. Many ants so need to keep all food sealed away and counters clean. The AC is above the bed and is quite loud with a bright light.

Points positifs: Nice and clean bungalow. Super nice staff and the yoga was amazing. Surf lessons from Nacho and Alex were great!

Points négatifs: You could not pull down curtains on all windows which made you feel a little exposed.
