Beautiful tents and facilities. Excellent beds. We spent a fantastic evening cooking in the outdoor kitchen , generously equipped. Judah is a super nice host. He did everything to make us feel at home and we did🤩 Everything is super clean and tents are not hot due to their location in the shades . I loved it

Well designed, cozy, comfortable with a fully equipped kitchen. We loved the location, quiet with a good pizza nearby, a grocery store that had everything we needed and it's a walking distance from playa cuevas.

This hotel is brand new and located right across the street from a beautiful beach and nearby restaurants. The staff were beyond helpful, and really went out of their way to make me feel at home. The pool is beautiful and the room was comfortable and had very cold AC. Seems like a far better deal than some other properties in the area that are much more run down and more costly. I would ABSOLUTELY stay here again.

The breakfast was great but not on site. It was a a cute little cafe down the street and we really enjoyed it. I would only suggest possibly adding a few more options for kids to the menu but the owner Barabara was super amazing and went out of her way to accommodate us.

I am so sad i missed this place when first booking a trip to Cabuya. Jenny is an amazing person and especially cook, she was very attentive and we chatted for a while. The room was very nice and comfortable, the place has a little outside gym which is amazing (feels very good to be doing something on vacation) I highly recommend this place since you feel safe, welcome and the place has spirit.

Fantastic! Loved the “Avatar” tree in the middle of the property. The grounds were breathtaking. Saw white faced monkeys using the power lines to cross the road at the edge of the property every morning and howlers from the yoga platform - which is stunning. I literally gasped when I walked up onto the platform. I can’t say enough about this property it was absolutely stunning.

The beaches in Santa Teresa were beautiful and not too...

The beaches in Santa Teresa were beautiful and not too crowded. Playa Mal Pais was not as nice. Santa Teresa was a bit touristy for my taste, but the one restaurant that we went to was really good. It was called Lora Amarilla. It was at the end of the road to the beach. I highly recommend it.

It's beautiful. Relaxed and easy to be there.

It's beautiful. Relaxed and easy to be there. The beaches are pretty untouched. It's not just Mal Pais, it's the whole Santa Teresa area. Perhaps a bit overcooked with a lot of young people - but don't let that bother you, it's an awesome holiday. Try Eat Street for delicous vegan bowls and not too bad wine. And if you are a pizza lover, then you must try Amicci. I'd say they are up there with the top Neopolitan style pizzas around the world. The beach life is of course the main attraction. My partner surfs and I sunbathe on the beach. Best of both worlds if you ask me. My favourite beach in the area is Playa Hermosa which is more family oriented and quieter.

Amazing surroundings and gorgeous rooms. The only thing we missed is some basic supplies in the room, like coffee, thee sugar. It is important to note that the rooms have their own kitchen with all supplies and a big fridge, but you need to bring grosseries. As we arrived late in the storm, we could not eat or dribk anything here. Upside, around the hotel there are great restaurants, walking distance, all open u till 9pm. Breakfast was perfect and the staff very nice and friendly. Rooms are decorated stylefull and very clean.

This place felt so homely, with a big kitchen and lots of storage areas, it would be easy to stay here for an extended time! One afternoon we sat in the garden area outside our house watching howler monkeys in the trees above us, such a cool experience!! The hosts were so lovely, my boyfriend and Mike went surfing together one morning! A great place and would definitely recommend staying here if you’re in Santa Teresa/ Mal País!!!
