"Everything was perfect, the pool is really nice, clean rooms and great service"

"Exceeded my expectations. Room massive, two seperate bedrooms, lots of storage and an amazing front deck. Room was a bit worn, but was cozy, clean and unpretentious.I loved staying here and coming back here to relax. Many thoughtful details were added like the water in the fridge, the ability to bring food/plates/cups back from the restaurant to eat, and taps outside the deck to rinse sand off. The airconditioning was a life saver. We were on the beach-not much of a view but easy access.We could hear the waves. There were howler monkeys in the trees over our bungalow. Parking was right near us in a gated section-Felt safe. Morning breakfast was yummy and good value considering it was included in our stay. There were two options of eggs, toast and fruit or a Costa Rica Traditional Breakfast. Coffee and Orange juice was included but you had to ask to get both. It was served right on the beach which was magical. We ate at the onsite restaurant many times. Most times it was a hit- the fish was fresh and very well prepared, the portion sizes huge. The pool was a nice size and enjoyable. Sadly didn't get a chance to get to the yoga class as hoped, but did book in for a massage- one of the best I've had. Easy waking to the main strip for restaurants and shops. Security walk around at night, discreetly. Felt safe. HAPPILY will return. Cons: Shower head would clog with sand (We just took it off. Good pressure and heat, no issues). Pebbled trails on property-not easy on bare feet!"

"I absolutely loved the little bungalows at this hotel. They were private, clean, and the location was perfect. My only complaint is that it is very loud in the evenings. There is music at the bar till 10 (11 one evening) so if you’re younger and looking for a party, this place is perfect. The sunsets at the restaurant are amazing. "

"I loved our stay in this charming little hotel. We had a kitchenette which was really nice. We had breakfast and coffee by the pool every morning. The saltwater pool was so lovely. It was quiet which was really nice to be away from the hustle and bustle at the beach below. Honestly, in our travels, we have never seen the cleaning staff pay attention and work as hard as these women did. I was shocked to see them wiping the railings, and window sills every morning. Amazing. The only warning I have is, there is a steep driveway so it is a hike from the beach. Recommend you to walk to the restaurant next door through the private gate. Stunning views and excellent food. We had an incredible server named Juan. He was absolutely Juan-derful 😊. I regret we didn’t stay longer. "

"Loved everything about our stay. They took boutique style hotel to the next level. Communication with the staff was superb. Shami and Cynthia were so accomodating. Highly recommend. "

"Loved this hotel! We ended up staying in one room for 3 people which was a bit small but for a few days it worked well. Cleaning was great and every issue we had with low water pressure, for example, was fixed in seconds. Staff is great and very welcoming. Great location, close to all good restaurants and the beach. "

"We went for the standard room but it was beautiful and spacious and very clean. They came twice a day to service the rooms and did a wonderful job. The pool is the best we have ever experienced… always a lovely temperature and great design. Areas for improvement: more sun beds around the pool (a couple of times there were none available) and yoga should be included free of charge for guests. Every other hotel we stayed in during our trip had this included - when you pay a lot for the room you don’t expect to be charged for these services. "

"LOCATION, ARCHITECTURE, DESIGN, LANDSCAPING"

"We had an amazing stay at Blooma Boutique Hotel and honestly loved it from the first moment. The rooms are new, spacious, and very comfortable, you can really feel the attention to detail. The restaurant is excellent, with a great and varied menu. Everything we ate was delicious, fresh, and well made, and we enjoyed every meal there. The service was outstanding. Ricardo, Nicole, Luis, Yaron, and Merav were all incredibly kind, caring, and always smiling. You really feel that they care about the guests and want you to have the best experience possible. The location is perfect, right on the beach and in the heart of Santa Teresa, close to everything and still very relaxing. We enjoyed our stay so much that instead of moving on to another place, we decided to extend our stay to three nights, simply because we were having such a great time. Highly recommended. Amazing people, great food, beautiful rooms, and a perfect location. We would definitely love to come back."
