Ocean View Luxury Tree House

AliciaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

The tree house was everything I would expect from Costa Rica, no detail was spared. This was an ethereal place that was a perfect distance between both montezuma and Santa Teresa. It was easy to get into town, but also beautiful enough to spend the evening in—watching the storms! When I make my way back to the Nicoya peninsula I will 100% come back to this place

Mal Pais Chill & Work 120m² house beach 350m away

ClaraRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Maria and Martin are wonderful hosts. The house is beautiful and lots of natural light. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly. Walking distance to Playa Mar Azul with great tide pools for little ones. Short drive to town but outside of busy Santa. The wifi was fine for personal use but not suitable for business if you are planning to work on your stay. The property is lovely but there is no ocean view as the photos listed suggest. Otherwise as pictured and lovely all around!

Casa Doña Luisa, Beachfront & Surf Secret Spot

StephanieRating, 5 stars2 months ago

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.

Float Above the Ocean - Santa Teresa North Escape

JenniferRating, 5 stars5 months ago

This home had beautiful views, a wonderful staff, and was a superb find for our family’s Christmas vacation. Santa Teresa is amazing and we had some of the best food on vacation ever! Our host , Brano was very responsive and our local helpers were amazing. There is a housekeeping staff on site, but they respect your privacy and keep watch over the property. They brought us extra towels when needed and were overall extremely respectful and helpful. For those traveling to this location, I strongly recommend either a car or ATVs as the home is located up a steep driveway. It is walkable (and there are 150 stairs to use instead) but to do this on a daily basis, you would have to be pretty fit and young. In addition, there are stairs from the driveway to get down to the house and these would not be appropriate for anyone with balance or stability issues. They were fine for us at 50 years old, but should be a consideration for anyone with walking or stability issues. We had a great time!

Modern Villa 3 min walk to the beach

GlorianaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

The house is great very spacious and with all the amenities that any family needs, the perfect location very close to downtown but at the same time private and surrounded by nature… in general we loved it! The only thing to take into account is that the hosts do not speak Spanish… when explaining where our house was there was no other way than in audios or call… (in English)
