Vacation rentals with beach access in Malpais

Loved the apartment & location! Has everything you need and the host is very helpful :) would stay here again & highly recommend overall

Great Stay, close to somos and to the beach. Nice apartment !

Great place to stay in Santa Teresa. We were surprised at how big the place is. The beds were super comfortable and there was plenty of space to hang out in the living room/kitchen. The balconies are an amazing plus. The location is incredible- right on the Main Street but tucked away and safe. Chino gave us some wonderful recommendations of beaches to go to that we ended up repeating! Walking to Santa Teresa beach was a big advantage for days when everyone didn’t want to do the same thing. We hope to be back!

Simona’s place was wonderful. The check in was very easy and I felt right at home as soon as I checked in to the airbnb. The kitchen was great, it had all the required amenities and a working stove and oven. The location is prime - it is next to the beach, and many restaurants and cafes. The place was cleaned daily and fresh towels were brought consistently. Simona offered great recommendations and I enjoyed that I could use the pool next door to Griss Lodge. My only con would be that the place can get a bit noisy in the night because of the ATVs and motorcycles driving on the road so I would recommend bringing ear plugs. Other than that, the place is wonderful and I would recommend Simona’s place.

Great location and good service for check-in

The place is very clean, close to the beach and very close to the pool and in front of the store. The host is very friendly. I would definitely stay at the place again

We felt right at home, the apartment is beautiful as is the pool area. The hosts were very accommodating; they responded to all of our inquiries and even made good recommendations about the area. The only unfavorable aspect is that being on a very busy street the noise can be a little annoying.

the apartment is incredibly beautiful, super cozy plus if you go with children, Susan is always friendly and helpful. We will definitely recommend it and use it again.

Casa Dona Luisa is a beautiful gem with a semiprivate beach out its front door. It's located just far enough outside of Santa Teresa to be quiet but still centrally located to all the great activities. Maykol was a wealth of knowledge and beyond helpful in assisting always with any vacation questions we had. I'd stay here again if we make it back to the Nicoya Peninsula.

As everyone says it's hard to describe. If you are looking for a convenient, sterile, cookie cutter hotel, this may not be for you. But if you want to emerse yourself in nature and environment, this is a total paradise. Joachim went above and beyond to attend to our needs

Such a beautiful location and the PERFECT villa for my family and I. The property is exactly as per the photos. It is maintained daily by Vincete (awesome guy and super friendly/really helpful). The house was cleaned daily at no extra cost. We had such a wonderful time staying here with 2 young kids, grandma and brother’s family. The view from the kitchen and outdoor area/pool is beautiful and never gets old. Would love to come back again!

Pia's place is probably my favorite AirBnb ever. It's a little beachside oasis right in the heart of Santa Teresa. Walk across the beautifully landscaped yard and onto the sand of one of the best beaches in Costa Rica. Iguanas, monkeys, butterflies and birds everywhere. A great hotel next door for good meals and pool time for kids. Pia is an exceptionally cool and kind and helpful host. And the house itself is awesome -- beautifully designed, well maintained, gorgeous. Can't recommend it highly enough.

We had a great stay, the airbnb is beautiful and had everything we needed. It’s only a 15 min walk to the centre with nice cafes and restaurants and about 5/10 minutes to the beach. We would definitely come back

Neil’s house is a beautiful mix of the sea and jungle! The house was more than we expected, it was beyond words. The beach was just steps away from the house. The cebtral location was perfect for many activities we planned. The local restaurants were a short walk away. Jenny greeeted us with a smile and helped us get settled in. I highly recommend this casa!!!

Exc location, the excellent facilities. Very central, you can walk to many restaurants

Joseph’s property is a serene, peaceful retreat surrounded by lush greenery and just a five-minute walk to the ocean. The tranquil setting and nature’s beauty made it the perfect escape for New Year's Eve. One highlight was meeting Macho, the friendly “guardian” dog, who quickly became a cherished part of our stay. Joseph’s hospitality was exceptional—he was kind, responsive, and even made us delicious homemade pizza one evening. We had a small misunderstanding about bringing two dogs instead of one, but Joseph was incredibly understanding and welcomed both with open arms. The property itself was well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed, with inviting outdoor spaces to relax and enjoy nature. Our only minor issue was a missed cleaning service, but Joseph apologized and offered to reschedule, though it was too close to our departure to be worthwhile. Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and we’d love to return!

The accommodation is very nice and well located. Marisa is amazing! She even added furniture before we arrived to accommodate us so we can have 4 meals around a table outside as well as inside. Super well decorated. Vegetation makes us feel good. Very well insulated inside so as not to hear the quad bikes passing on the main street. We loved it!

We had a great time staying at the place. The rooms and pool area are very well maintained. In addition, the property impresses with its central location. The communication between us and the host went very well when we had a small problem. He helped us out right away.

Great condo near the beach. It was very well equipped and very clean in a nice complex with its own pool. Arman was a great host always quick to respond and comes highly recommended. 5 star all the way

Excellent place! It was well furnished and comfortable, with all the amenities from home. Instructions were good and it was well located next to the ocean and a supermarket.

Excellent place, beautiful apartment. I take care of the wildlife, special to rest and enjoy as a family.

Thank you Sharon for being a wonderful host. You always took great care of us and we had such a wonderful time at your Condo. Los Delphines is a treasure and we hope to retire there in 2026..Everything was perfect!! Jerry & Bobbi Beatty

Michaels place was very clean! Very quiet area. I felt very safe as someone traveling solo. It seems to be an older retired area.. so if your looking for fun, this isn’t the place. But if you are looking for peace and quiet, a private place to regroup- this place is perfect for that. There was a beachfront restaurant nearby that was really good. Depending upon the vibe you’re looking for, I definitely recommend!

Stayed in this lovely unit for 5 very comfortable weeks. The unit was clean, very well equipped and the outdoor sitting area was so enjoyable with monkeys, macaws, and even the odd friendly iguana to keep you entertained. Troy and Charmie were very attentive as hosts and the beach chairs and cooler were great to have on hand. Units on this side of the condo offer the golf course and treed patio surroundings as well as welcome shade all afternoon. Los Delfines is a very safe and secure location. The Azul complex has a handy mini mart across the street. It also has a nice pool where most residents got together late afternoons to enjoy some laughs and exchange ideas and findings on where they had visited that day. It had a wonderful “community” feel and we met so many terrific new friends, the vast majority from Ontario. Complex has a fabulous beach cafe … the Firebean also nice beach bar restaurant “El Rancho” - great food/good value. Played pickleball most days too! We hope to return!
