Your Digital Nomad Hub in Santa Teresa
Hi! I’m Luis, and I manage Trebolmar. After five years hosting digital nomads, I know how important it is to have reliable internet when you’re working remotely.

Our place makes it easy to start your day by surfing, focus on your work when you need to, and enjoy the sunset in the evening.
