Jungle Oasis w/ Pool - walk to beach – Sea Monkey
Pricilla and Pia were absolutely amazing hosts! From the moment we arrived, it felt like we had an extended family in Costa Rica. They were always just a message away—whether it was for a quick question or an unexpected emergency (our little daughter spiked a fever and needed to see a doctor), they were there with immediate support, kindness, and guidance. Their recommendations for things to do, places to eat, and local services were all top-notch and made our trip even more special. Thanks to them, we felt safe, informed, and incredibly well taken care of. My family—including our three young kids—had the time of our lives at the Seamonkey. We left with unforgettable memories and full hearts. Highly recommend this incredible stay to anyone visiting the area!

Casa Colibri - Stunning ocean view
This place is stunning. Sweeping views of the ocean. Howler monkeys in the trees one day. Colorful birds. Everything. Plus it’s a litttttle but outside the main strip of town which is good because it’s quiet Steep driveway but everywhere nice in Santa Teresa has one. Rent an atv or a 4x4 vehicle. Highly recommend this place!

Villa Wayra
El lugar es muy cómodo y acogedor, súper tranquilo y agradable, mi esposa y yo la pasamos excelente, en definitiva recomiendo hospedarse aquí, los host y co-hosts son muy amables también y atentos. Muchas gracias por todo.

Villa Pompadour
Beautiful. Comfortable. Cozy. This is a stay we will never forget!! Aside from the stunning views of the ocean and complete privacy, the villa is charming as can be - a chic bohemian beach paradise. If you’re looking to sip coffee and make breakfast in the morning, while listening to the sounds of nature (a symphony of birds, insects, and the occasional howler monkey roar) from your poolside hammock, this is the place for you!!! It will feel like you’re in a dream! Also, Fiona, our concierge, is a shining gem of a human - so kind and gracious and helpful!!! 11/10 would recommend this place. The only, and I mean ONLY, downside is that the villa is located a ways up the hill and the road is steep and treacherous in some places. We would definitely recommend a mode of transportation to get to the villa. We walked down into town most days and while we had to be careful, it was doable. The walk back up was quite challenging tho - a great workout for those more abled-bodied travelers.

Stunning Ocean Villa - Infinity Pool & King Bed
We really enjoyed our stay here. The guest houses are nicely laid out, so that each has a great view and nice pool access. Kitchens are well stocked and nicely planned - we cooked a lot and it was easy to use. The location on the hill gives you a very nice panorama of the ocean between Cabo Blanco and Playa Montezuma. It is close to a great restaurant/brewery, and a trail that goes into the Montezuma Waterfall near the top ($5 US to hike it and it was worth the trip). Getting to town or the beach requires driving or walking a pretty steep, busy road. There are lots of great restaurants and beaches around Montezuma.

Fully Private 2 bed/2 ba SWAR Villa Pool Sea View
**A Perfect Stay in Paradise!** Our stay at this Airbnb in Costa Rica was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, Lori and Will made us feel incredibly welcome, ensuring that every detail of our stay was seamless. Will was beyond helpful—friendly, attentive, and always ready to take care of anything we needed. The hospitality was top-notch, making our vacation truly stress-free. And the pool? Absolutely spectacular! Whether it was a morning dip to start the day or an evening swim under the stars, it was the perfect oasis. Every aspect of our stay—was smooth and enjoyable. We’re already counting down the days until we can come back. Highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a relaxing and unforgettable getaway in Costa Rica!

Exquisite Modern Ocean view Santa teresa beach
The house and surrounding environment was incredibly we saw many animals including monkeys, butterflies, curious squirrels and many colourful birds where especially the hummingbirds gets very close to you if you wish. Anne-Laures is ever helpful and fast responding if you have questions about anything 😊. The place is literally almost in the jungle with a view above it and over the ocean and that is only a 10 minute drive in your 4x4 car. We want to thank you Anne for a magnificent stay Best regards the Mikalski family

Ital Mountain - bright and spacious jungle house
We loved our month stay with Rachel, Danny, Ghetto and Tiguron! We felt at home immediately. The airbnb was as expected if not better, perfect for a long stay and working remotely. Close to the main road, it's a 3 mins drive to Santa Teresa. We recommend using an ATV to go around - Rachel and Danny have a great rental recommandation! Talking about recommandations, they have so many great spots they shared with us that made our stay even more enjoyable. We hope to stay there again next time we come back at Santa Teresa!

Casa Juliet l 4BR l Ocean view l Prime Location !
We have been coming to Costa Rica since 1990 and have stayed in many homes in different parts of the country. Casa Juliet is our new favorite. The home is amazing with spectacular views! The location is perfect, just a 5 minute walk to the beach, restaurants and shopping. The home is very safe, behind a gated entrance. We never locked the doors during our stay. We were 4 couples in the home. because of the layout, we never felt cramped or limited on space. The grounds are beautiful and the pool and patios are large with several separate seating areas. The staff, Clara and Jose were onsite every day for cleaning and maintaining the pool and grounds. Clara also cooked and prepared meals when asked. Our host, Rotem was awesome, he was always available to assist and direct us to the best restaurants and activities and checked in on us often. We can't wait for our next trip to Casa Julliet!

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.

SantaTeresaSurfingVilla n°2 oceanview/privatepool
We loved our stay at Louis’s villa! From the moment we booked he was responsive and helped us organize everything. Airport pick up, transportation around town and where to find the best waves, He had everything covered. He also had the villa cleaned half way through our trip! Great host, great place, beautiful place to visit! Highly recommend.

Villa Laia - Santa Teresa
I would highly recommend Alan and his Villa. From the start he was very responsive and helpful for accommodations. I constantly visit Santa Teresa and this was my favorite stay so far. The villa was clean, private, the pool was beautiful and Tomas,our concierge, did a great job checking us in, providing recommendations and making us feel like home. Thank you Alan and Tomas for this wonderful weekend! 10/10

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!

Ocean Sounds Villa Mango walk to Playa Hermosa
We had a great stay at Casa Mango. The pictures were accurate and the place was spotless Laura the host was flawless, she’s was constantly available - giving us suggestions and advice through out our stay, very attentive and made our stay so much more enjoyable with the use of local knowledge. We even extended our stay. Thanks ☺️

OCEAN VIEW with Infinity Pool
The view and property were better than the photos!! The communication was helpful as we needed help assisting my mother in law who got sick while we were there. The location communication is spot on and clear, have 4x4 on, drive to map location they sent (definitely use the coordinates!!). The kitchen, wifi, pool, AC all worked well. It is noted that the AC is in the bedroom areas, we left the bedroom doors open to help cool down the living area when needed.....we were there the hottest month of the year and were comfortable the whole time. In the mornings we would open up the windows in the kitchen to hear the howler monkeys. Other reviewers mentioned that construction is ongoing in the neighborhood, this is true. The occasional noise was no big issue. We enjoyed sunsets at Brukkas, Banana Beach, Malpais playa suecos, and Manzanillo beach (must have 4x4) .... absolutely stunning!!!

House+Casita North of SantaTeresa 3BD ClosetoBeach
Diane’s place far exceeded our expectations. Great location, very tastefully decorated. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was there and available. The setting is amazing, looking out over the jungle and seeing the monkeys off the balcony. The sounds in the morning and evening are amazing. Great pool, grill etc etc. We would come back here in a heart beat.

Best Location - Brand new - Pool - Spacious
Un Airbnb encantador en Santa Teresa, rodeado de vegetación, a pocos minutos caminando de la playa. Espacio amplio y cómodo, con buena ventilación, decoración de buen gusto. Ideal para descansar después de surfear o explorar. Excelente relación precio/calidad y atención amable por parte de los anfitriones.

Peace Villa - Walk to the beach
The house was just as advertised. The concierge service was excellent. Daily maid and fresh towels everyday were great. Santa Theresa is an interesting place, not for everyone but we had a good experience

Pi.casa – Art Villa. Privacy. Ocean Sunset View
I celebrated my birthday with my family in Picasa and was amazed not just the beautiful property but also Pierre- our host! I knew I picked the right place to celebrate. We had everything we needed & was accessible to everything. The place was an oasis & able to celebrate & spend quality time with my family. Thank you Pierre, we will be back. You were so warm & every one of us loved our stay!
