"Absolutely loved my stay at Banana Beach in Santa Teresa! 🌴🌊✨ Such an incredible place with the most amazing vibes, beautiful energy, and a relaxed, tropical atmosphere. Everything about it captures the magic of Costa Rica. The beach, the ambiance, the people, and the overall experience made my stay truly special. A little slice of paradise filled with pura vida energy! 🦋🌺☀️ Can’t wait to come back! Highly recommend! 🤍✨"

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay at Tango Mar. The owner always greeted us each day to see how we were or how our day was. The staff were so friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious! I took advantage of the spa and had an incredible massage. Gorgeous views of the ocean right out your window and the multiple pools to cool off in with the heat. Swimming beaches were a short drive away if you wanted to swim in the ocean."

"The electricity went out. They need solar lights along the gravel path leading to the bungalows. I tripped over the speed bump on the path and my injuries effected my entire trip. Perfectly avoidable."
