I stayed for two days with my family and friends, and everything was absolutely perfect. I had stayed here before, but I was pleasantly surprised to see the hotel has been completely renovated under new management. Everything is spotless, modern, and well-maintained. The breakfast was one of the highlights — freshly prepared and delicious, with excellent service throughout our stay. The staff was friendly and attentive at all times. The location is unbeatable — just a 1-minute walk to the beach. We truly enjoyed every moment and highly recommend this place!

We could not be any happier, this was the best location, close to the beach, great pool area to relax in a shady spot for peace and quiet. The rooms and room service are 5***** clean and fresh, smells amazing. The staff is incredibly helpful and so friendly. We felt like we were family. Look out for the two resident iguanas.

this spring break, myself and four other girls came and stayed at hotel santa teresa by the beach. we are absolutely at a lost for words to begin to explain how much we enjoyed our stay. we were looking for a boutique hotel feel and this is exactly that. the photos and map don’t do it justice because its beautiful and spacious and sitting not even a block from the beach. we were greeted and spoiled by the same staff every morning who went absolutely above and beyond to make us feel taken care of. the staff is truly what made this place so special. we especially loved steven, david, louis, kevin, and josue. we will forever love and remember hotel santa teresa by the beach!

Great Experience

I highly recommend this hotel. We loved it so much we booked another eight days here. It is close to the beach. The rooms are very quiet and you can hear the ocean. I love the people that work here. Lydia who cleans the room goes out of her way to make sure everything is perfect. Kevin and David who run the desk are great at helping you with anything. The restaurants that Kevin recommended were our favorites. The hotel serves a wonderful breakfast every morning. It has fresh fruit and a nice variety of choices. The staff is hard working. This hotel is great for all ages. We are so glad we stayed here.

Excelente atención desde el front desk hasta la atención en el restaurante. Se nos recibió muy bien. Los chicos del desayuno fueron super amables. El Gerente siempre estuvo muy atento y muy servicial. Incluso el personal de la noche brinda del front desk brindaba excelentes recomendaciones de restaurantes en la zona. Las amenidades de la habitación y del hotel están muy bien pensadas para satisfacer todas las necesidades de los huéspedes. Importante que cuente con parqueo y piscina, además de que tiene una ubicación céntrica y estratégica Sin duda regresaríamos y lo recomendaremos.

Great place to stay near Santa Terrsa

We had a great 2 night stay here and would definitely come back. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The breakfast included was excellent-I particularly loved the cappuccino machine! The pool was small but lovely. The ocean view was only partial due to trees, but it is only a block to to the beach which was beautiful.

Bilan vraiment partagé. L'hôtel est visiblement refait à neuf et les chambres sont fonctionnelles. Le gros point négatif est le service et l'organisation générale. Le personnel est essentiellement sur ses téléphones ou sur les ordinateurs, il communique uniquement par WhatsApp si vous avez besoin de quelque chose et la réactivité n'est pas vraiment au rendez-vous. Nous sommes également partis sur une note négative car le matin de notre départ, pas d'eau ni d'électricité avant 5 minutes avant notre départ, sans nous avoir avertis en amont. C'est vraiment dommage car l'hôtel a du potentiel, mais ces points sont importants pour l'expérience client. Nous avons été accueillis partout très bien au Costa Rica, mais l'hôtel Santa Teresa aura détonné. Petit dej limite .
