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

"My husband and I stayed at Nantipa for 6 nights and I cannot wait to go back. The stay included breakfast at their Manzú restaurant each day which offered multiple healthy, filling and delicious choices. We also had an excellent dinner with unique cocktails during our stay. The Ninta Beachfront Bungalow offers ocean views from the the bed and a large plunge pool. It was a very relaxing way to spend time after jumping in the ocean. The bed was very comfortable and the AC rooms stayed nice and cool. They have bug spray in the room for your use that smells nice and works well. There is a mini fridge with some buy options but also plenty of space to add any drinks you might purchase in town. There are walkable restaurants and shops nearby where you can find casual choices. We also worked with the concierge, Anthony, to book a surfing lesson. It was very fun but difficult. Worth at least trying if you have time. Anthony also went above and beyond with a large gift for us during our stay including fresh fruit (mango is amazing here), cookies and chocolate! The hotel also offers house keeping 2× a day with turndown including a chocolate and fresh flowers each day. There is no gym but since this is a wellness resort the focus is on classes like yoga/pilates. They offer a complimentary 7am yoga which had a different instructor/ flow each day. Well worth booking in advance. The other classes run thru the day with a cost and pre booking as well. If you're looking for luxury and personalized care this is definitely the resort to stay at."

Surf Paradise ★★★

Blooma Boutique Hotel & Kosher Restaurant ★★★★

"My partner and I stayed here on the final stop of our four week Central America trip and it was the best place we have stayed. The staff are INCREDIBLE. They are so kind, attentive, and never make you feel like you are wasting their time. The location of the hotel is great too, walking distance to everything and the beach is about 2min walk away. Breakfast is also delicious, the granola and fresh fruit is so yum (plus a barista made coffee with every breakfast!). The rooms are modern, clean, with a comfortable bed and great pillows. We are also able to refill sparkling and still water for free. Another cool thing is the wrist band that unlocks your room instead of a key, this was great for not having to always look for the key! We didn’t book anything through the hotel, but we’ve seen other guests do it and it looks super easy."

Hotel Santa Teresa by the Beach ★★★

Dreamcatcher Hotel - Live the Dream of Santa Teresa ★★★

"Dreamcatcher is a small hotel but very well located, with gentle and capable staff, our room was very spacious with two gigantic beds and a nice balcony. The garden is well maintained and could be "experienced" in the room through the balcony. The room, bathroom, pools and breakfast area were always clean and organized at any time of the day or night. The check in and check out processes were easy and fast, with the communication starting few days after the reservation through WhatsApp and emails. Actually anytime we needed we could use WhatsApp to reach out for support."

Zula Inn Aparthotel ★★

"I can't recommend this place enough. Clean, comfortable, quiet and the perfect location. Nicely landscaped cabins around a beautiful pool, set back far enough from the road that there's no noise or dust. Surf is a short walk across the street. Zula Inn is operated by the most wonderful family who made us feel right at home and were available for any questions or to help with whatever we needed. The staff is wonderful, the cabins are large and airy with a great private deck. A great value for your money as well. Thank you guys so much for an amazing stay."

Aduana House ★★★

Laloon Luxury Suites - Adults Only ★★★★★

"I recently stayed at “Laloon Luxury Suites” and it was an exceptional experience. The suites were spacious, immaculately clean, and beautifully decorated. The staff was attentive and went above and beyond to ensure my comfort. The location was convenient, making it easy to explore the city. The food was delicious, with a wide variety of options. I highly recommend “Laloon Luxury Suites” for a luxurious and comfortable stay. It truly felt like a home away from home."

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"
