Casa Dorado Mal Pais Playa de Pesca Resort 3BR
We stayed for one 1 month at Joe's place and what can I say, it was awesome. Joe himself is very kind, responsive and super chilled. He even made food for us and invited us to hang out with his friends and come to party. The hospitality was incredible. The place itself was beautiful. It is the middle of the jungle, surrounded by fruit trees, palm trees and cool animals. Very private as well. In the middle is a pool and a community place where people come together and hang out. I loved the kitchen at our house, the big fridge, the balcony and everything else. I also had a special request about synthetic fragrances where Joe made sure they avoid it before I come and I’m really thankful for that. The beach is right in front of the house, a little grocery store 5min walk and Santa Teresa is like 5min by car. The people in Costa Rica are also very friendly and kind. I can highly recommend staying at Joe's place. Thank you Joe!!

Casa Rocas Coloradas c/ renta cuatriciclo (aparte)
Our stay was fantastic, and I highly recommend this place. The house is tucked away in the jungle, surrounded by trees, palms, lush vegetation, and various animals. You can relax inside with air conditioning while enjoying the view through the large windows, or unwind on the spacious terrace and take in the natural surroundings. The interior was exactly as described - clean, well-maintained, and fully equipped with everything listed. The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. Communication was excellent: quick responses, clear instructions, and even help guiding us to the house, which isn’t the easiest to find. There’s a beach nearby, and even the heart of the tourist area is within easy reach. You’ll definitely need a real 4x4 vehicle, as reaching the property requires crossing a stream several times - which can become more challenging during the rainy season. We would definitely choose this place again if we return to Costa Rica.

2 Bedroom Vacation Home 2min Walk to the Beach
Great location and privacy! Everything you need in one place

Luxury villa, private pool, 2 min from the beach
Barbara and John were literally the kindest people in Costa Rica you could stay with. Our toddler, the biggest food critic of them all loved every food recommendation we received. He danced to the music in restaurants and was welcomed with love by locals. The home is so private, relaxing, beautifully decorated, everyone in our family felt at home here. We cooked in the kitchen and found it fully equipped and easy to cook for a group. We loved watching monkeys swaying on neighboring trees and birds singing each morning near the large deck. We slept so peacefully in their comfortable large beds every night and the space was quite large so our kiddo got to get his wiggles out. Their pool was the perfect temperature everyday and large enough you could do laps. John provided such a throughout and very legit surf lesson. Overall we LOVED this home and it was well worth the journey into this cool little surf town. - Christina

Santa teresa Linda Cabana en la selva océan view
I had a great stay! Anne-Laure is a wonderful host—she made sure my check-in went smoothly and helped me out multiple times during my stay. She even gave me a hand returning my quad bike when I was checking out. Always quick to respond and happy to help with anything I needed. I’d definitely come back. Thank you so much! much.

2BR Villa in Ecocoon Treelodge |Sauna|Cold-plunge
Marine is an excellent host, very responsive and her place is really nice, a good place to disconnect with beautiful scenery and comfortable installments. I would highly recommend this stay and host

Seataya Ocean - 3 Beds Luxury Villa with Pool
This place is over-the-top awesome. Soaring ocean views, but the center of town is just down the hill. The two bedrooms upstairs had epic views and super comfortable king beds, and the third bedroom downstairs was perfect for the kids. Eti, the host, was super responsive and helped us book all kinds of adventures throughout our stay. There was daily cleaning and laundry from friendly staff. It's basically your own private luxury hotel in one of the world's perfect surf towns.

Casa Mirame - Brand New Beautiful Ocean View Villa
Our friends rented this house a year ago and loved it so much that we decided to book it for our honeymoon, and we are happy we did. The Casa Mirame concierge team made everything flawless - from restaurant recommendations and setting up excursions, to even booking our 4x4 rental at the Cobano Airport. You need 4x4. The road is steep and partially unpaved. However, the drive is more than worth it. The home is spotless, includes daily maid service, looks better than the photos, and the views are magical. The place is totally private, and the pool is AMAZING. We would watch birds and listen to monkeys and the waves in the distance while the sun set.

Costa Rica Villa with Ocean Views & Private Pool
Such a lovely stay, the villa is gorgeous, views are stunning, we loved it! The hill is walkable but steep so it was definitely a good work out, we had a 4x4 and it managed it fine. Santa Teresa is great, so many restaurants and bars, we surfed/tried to, headed to Montezuma for zip wire and thoroughly enjoyed the gorgeous sunsets from the villa. BBQ and kitchen was great, we ate in a few times and quite enjoyed watching the ant action at night. Tomi the dog was a lovely extra we discovered he loved chomping on ice cubes, he was a gem! The hosts are very responsive, loved the info they sent it was great, would highly recommend staying here.

Villa Perla De Mar | Ocean Views & walk to beach
Wonderful house! Yoad was incredibly friendly and attentive. The property was just as described, with a beautiful view and a very private setting. Great location—close to supermarkets and shops. It’s also very pet-friendly, which was a big plus. We’d definitely love to come back. A fantastic spot! I recommend!

Bohemia Bungalow Maya: Comfort, Luxury & Nature
Amazing place in the jungle! It’s incredibly peaceful, perfect for relaxation and disconnecting from the world. However, be prepared for a steep road—you’ll need a 4x4 to get there. Since it’s deep in the jungle, you might encounter some interesting insects. Overall, a fantastic getaway for nature lovers!

ChezMu Villa-Oceanview•Pool•Outdoor Bathtub @ Aves

Stunning Ocean Villa - Infinity Pool & King Bed
Beautiful stay, responsive hosts and incredibly helpful, friendly on-site staff. Very quiet, relaxing atmosphere. I often had the pool to myself. This was one of the most beautiful accomodations I’ve had with the best customer service. I accidentally broke a glass and they sent someone within minutes to sweep with a dustpan and deep clean the next morning. I was impressed. I will definetly hope to return with my loved ones!

Don Evelio's Rodriguez
We loved spending two nights in nature. It was so peaceful! Esteban was immediately there upon our arrival and Ingrid checked in daily to ensure everything was going well. The Cabo Blanco Nature Reserve is extremely close (you can walk) and it was beautiful to hike there. We did not see deer but my morning yoga session on the deck with 5-10 monkeys jumping in the trees was spectacular. I will not forgot this. I also could watch them from the shower. This place is just a delight.

Blue Beach - Nature Apartment (1st Flor)
Fue nuestra primera vez en la zona y desde antes de reservarlo, Lorna fue muy atenta explicando y recomendando qué lugares visitar. En sitio te recibe Adonis quien en todo momento fue super atento, amigable y anuente a ayudarte en todo, desde dónde comer hasta cómo llegar a las playas y de paso enseñarte el lugar. Que dicho sea de paso es divino en medio de muchos árboles, sonido de pajaritos y visita de los monos aulladores. El apartamento está súper bien equipado, limpio, blanco y una luz natural hermosa. El pueblo tiene una vibra lindísima, la playa tiene muchas piedras pero ese es su encanto. La cereza en el pastel son Luna y Toby que te acompañan en las caminatas y la piscina entre una sombra muy apenas para relajarse en la tarde. Sin duda, volveremos 🫶🏼.

Villa Lasai - Brand New Luxury Villa
We had a great time at Villa Lasai! Sophie- the concierge, did a great job assisting us with anything we needed and the house itself is exactly what you see on the pictures- gorgeous with breathtaking views, great pool and outdoor area. I am not an early bird by any means but I enjoyed waking up early in this house a lot- hearing all the forest inhabitants, ocean waves breaking somewhere further make you want to start your day to see/feel more of that. The house is located up the hill and the road is partially paved which took us one full round trip to get used to, but once you get a hang of it- it’s totally fine just a bit bumpy. In terms of proximity to everything the location is great, once you’re down the hill- you’re on the main street of Santa Teresa with all the restaurants, shops and tons of ocean access points. Overall, would definitely recommend Villa Lasai and would love to come back here some time in the future!

1 Beautiful New 1bdr apartment walk to surf
This apartment was amazing. Windows the length of the apartment looking out into nature was dreamy! Also have the apartment cleaned on a regular basis was nice, it’s nearly impossible to not drag sand in.

Ocean View Villa Serena Above Hermosa Beach
We had an amazing time at the Ocean View Villa. Adriana and the staff that take care of the property were so friendly and hospitable. We visited during rainy season, and they were so quick to pull the lounge chair cushions under cover to prevent them from getting soaked. We felt very safe and comfortable the entire stay. They gave us helpful tips before and during our stay. The house and views were so good. The local area was fun to explore. We are so grateful to have had a chance to stay here and would recommend it to anyone wanting to have a fantastic stay in Costa Rica!

Cozy Studio 100m from Mal Pais Beach

Rainbow House- Private & cozy get away
Rainbow House was a great place to stay. Surrounded by trees with great view of the Pacific Ocean. Steep climb to the house but that was great exercise. Chachi was responsive to our requests and is very helpful.

Renovated Oceanside Villa in peaceful Mal Pais
