Canaima Chill House, hotel in Santa Teresa Beach

This eco-friendly, boutique hotel is located in pretty Santa Teresa on the Nicoya Peninsula.

The property was very cute and is surrounded by nature and lush greenery. The pool is small but was nice during the day, and we were lucky enough to see a troop of capuchin monkeys stop by to get a drink of water from the pool. It is a 5-10 minute walk to the beach and restaurants along Santa Teresa. Extremely walkable area if you don't mind getting in some cardio when climbing back up the steep hill to the property.

    Americanized beach town. Crowded waters to surf. Really bad infrastructure, roads are bad, no sidewalks and caos in traffic. The beach itself is very beautiful and the waves are nice. Just the vibe is either you love it or you hate it.

    Santa Teresa for us was a completely disastrous in terms of development. I cannot even imagine anyone wanting to live there. The scenery once you get beyond the mishmash of stores 3 centimeters from the really poor roads is wonderful. It is a surfer place and nothing more. I would not ever go back for any reason

    Santa Teresa has the most beautiful beach. There are so many places to eat that have great food. Santa Teresa does not feel as crowded as some other beaches in Costa Rica, and I honestly feel very safe there. I would highly recommmend this place.

    The property is amazing.

    The property is amazing. The pool is super cute, the rooms are spacious and modern. BUT the Beach Club/Restaurant charged us for things we didn’t order. We will always pay for everything we eat and drink but when things are added on our bills that we didn’t consume, we regretfully are super bitter. The hotel is looking into it and said they will get back to us. They have t yet. Also, they advocate that they are an adult only hotel but there were kids at the restaurant and at pool.

    Wooden shacks with corrugated metal roofs along a dusty dirt road. Restaurants use camping-style kitchens and where they get their groceries with absolutely no decent food market within at least two hours driving is their secret. There is absolutely no sewage system anywhere. Everyone just has a whole in the ground they call ‘septic system’. Just steps from the beach !! Would be interesting to have the water quality tested..

    Lovely. Beautiful beach with soft sand, wonderful sunsets, great waves, a lot of nature. A bit too many people (lots of surfers) and cars in some parts, but great offer in terms of cafes, restaurants, yoga and surf lessons.

    Location was great - beach across the street, tons of restaurants an easy walk away, no road noise, despite the ongoing construction all over Santa Teresa. Loved the pool - it was perfect after a day of salt water. Loved having a kitchen. We had an upstairs apartment and the lofted ceilings and super strong ceiling fans kept the air moving and the bugs at bay. Owner was accessible and responsive to questions and friendly. Best bonus was friendly cats that sometimes slept over ❤❤❤

    We had such a lovely one week stay at Lucero, where we stayed in the secluded jungle apartment. It was super quiet, stylish, clean, great breakfast, nice pool area, perfect location nearby lots of restaurants and grocery store + close to the beach and surf! We got extremely well taken care of by the lovely concierge Gala, who did everything in her power to make sure our stay was excellent. Can truly recommend this place for anyone visiting Santa Teresa!

    Best hostel in Santa Teresa! We were in town for awhile surfing and loved this accommodation. Beach is a few minutes walk away down a beautiful jungle path, and the hostel is right next to restaurants and a grocery store. Room was perfect, cozy, quiet and had really good AC which is a must in Santa Teresa. The best thing about this place though was the staff who were super friendly and went above and beyond to accommodate.

    Incredibly clean, modern accommodation with incredibly accommodating staff. Lovely pool and great location to two of Santa Teresa’s best restaurants, Koji and Katana. Just two minutes from the beach, and near great breakfast spots like the Bakery and Bali Café. The hosts organised airport accommodation for us and provided great recommendations on things to do. Would absolutely stay again.

    Great villas and nice pool. We had a small kitchen in our place which was great. The location is next to a beach access with an easy walk. There is a small local restaurant and convenience store close by. In general, playa Hermosa is a bit far from all the restaurants of santa Teresa but it's great spot to relax that is quieter. Beach is super nice. Good surfing too.

Our Villa was perfect for our two-week stay, and every single staff member we encountered were so kind and accommodating. We felt like royalty during our stay, and would love to come back.

    Ohana Villas is a quiet oasis in the middle of busy Santa Teresa. A well designed property, thoughtful interior layout, plants and vegetation, zen (and I don't normally use the word zen). A very secure property too. Juan is a very good host, reaching out to me days before and when we arrived. Answers for any questions. Great restaurant recommendations too!

    It is a beautiful set up right on the beach in the jungle. Loads of beautiful little spots to hang out. Nice yoga shala however focus of this spot is definitely surfing. For few nights it is lovely to experience life on the beach. Santa Teresa beach during sunset is a must. It is a social scene there. I love it :)
