Wonderful quality materials and furnishing in the casita. And lush, manicured tropical private garden. Nice and cool AC when needed, and open doors and ceiling fans most of the time. Outdoor shower! All just a short stroll to the beach. And plenty of boards to rent if you want to go surfing. Antonio is attentive and a great guide for whatever you need to know.
A lovely property, open cabanas in jungle gardens - but because they are close together and welcome young families in the larger villas, this is not a hideaway for lovers. Screaming children jumping in pools from 6 or 7 am, wailing babies, admonishing parents - all make the ever-present howler monkeys sound like lullabies. Also some of the handful of units are close to the road, which also can be noisy. That said, the property is breathtaking, the nearness to the perfect beach ideal (the waves are ideal for surfers - for young children, not so much, though the 12 year old surfers kicked my butt). Good to keep in mind too that the road to and through the village of Santa Teresa, though lined with great stores and restaurants, is an endless dust storm in the dry season. Everyone, including those walking, wears bandanas over their nose and mouth. But once youâre on the beach, itâs like youâre in the middle of nowhere - in the best way possible.
We had the most wonderful and restful time. Even though it rained most of the 4 days we were there, it was still very peaceful and relaxing to hear the gentle pitter-patter of raindrops on the leaves of all the beautiful tropical plants that surround the place. Weâre so glad that we didnât let the rainy season scare us away.
Antonio, the concierge, couldnât have been more friendly and hospitable. He always bent over backwards to make sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed.
Overall, we have no complaints. Our stay here was absolutely wonderful. I canât wait to come back soon. Pura Vida!
This property is luxurious and every detail to be eco friendly is well planned out. Just a short path to the beach, which essentially felt private. Love Love Love the accommodations with the open-air bathroom, daily maid cleaning with organic products, composting food waste, yoga platform, secure parking, night guardsman, solar power, and drinking water filtration system with grey water recycling for vegetation. This property was designed to have little impact on the environment. It is gorgeous. I highly recommend it.
Beautiful, spacious and clean rooms. Very peaceful and quiet. Our hosts were very friendly and we're there for anything I needed. The property has gorgeous gardens and is close to a nice sandy beach perfect for lounging or surfing. Overall very highly recommended

Our children met at the local beach school. An English family escaping the grey miserable winter and local Italian residents after years of travel. The parents met and discovered a mutual love of this stunning and alluring area of Santa Teresa. A few dinners later, dreams discussed and Batik was lovingly created.
