Cóbano

"Stayed in the Estrella room, it was beyond beautiful. Long scenic walk to the room, kitchenette, and filtered water in the full sized fridge. Staff was very kind and helpful, since the hotel was 6 hours from SJO we had to leave at 4 am and to our surprise there was a staff member there to assist with checkout. There are no key drop-boxes, so I was worried about how we were going to return it. Overall an amazing stay."

Hotel Santa Teresa by the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice, small and basic hotel so do not expect any special amenities (like gym) but there is a pool, which we used extensively. It’s is located very close to the beach in Carmen, restaurants and shops. They only serve breakfast there but it was good. Staff was amazing and very helpful (especially David, Luis and Astrid), there was a problem with AC but this issue was resolved promptly and professionally. Rooms are very clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our time in Santa Teresa by The Beach."

"Beautiful Boutique Villa in a Great Location We had a wonderful stay at Casa Swell! The boutique villa was beautifully designed, with stylish boho decor, tropical surroundings, and a relaxed atmosphere that suited us perfectly. It was a great place to unwind and enjoy the laid-back vibe of Santa Teresa. The property offered a comfortable, welcoming space and felt like a great value for the price. We loved the overall aesthetic and the tropical setting. We would happily recommend Casa Swell to anyone looking for a stylish, comfortable place to stay while exploring Santa Teresa. We would definitely consider staying here again!"
