Santeria Lodge - Playa Santa Teresa (Puntarenas)

Clean, friendly staff, close to beach, convenient location near bakery, supermarket. Easy parking and well-maintained grounds.

Amazing Stay at a Centrally Located Oasis Pros: I recently had the pleasure of staying at a centrally located oasis for two weeks. the lodge, run by the owners Valentina and Andrea, offers a fantastic experience in Santa Teresa. the newly renovated apartment I stayed in was well-equipped, with a kitchen that had everything I needed to prepare meals. the cleanliness of the bathroom and floors was impeccable. the location couldn't have been more convenient, being right next to the Super Rony supermarket and Selina coworking space. It's also in close proximity to restaurants and a bank. the privacy offered by the lodge was a welcome bonus. the owners were extremely accommodating and made me feel like family. I also enjoyed the refreshing pool and the lush landscape architecture. I highly recommend this place for a memorable stay in Santa Teresa. Cons: Nothing. it was perfect! 😊.

The value for money at Santeria Lodge was incredible, and the room was comfortable with great AC. The location was perfect, just a few minutes walk to the beach, with restaurants, bars, and a supermarket nearby. The staff were friendly and caring, ensuring a great stay.

One small improvement would be to provide a breakfast option with more variety.

I had an amazing time at Santeria Lodge in Playa Santa Teresa. As a solo traveler, I appreciated the comforts and privacy this place provided while still having a community feel. The lodge is located within walking distance to restaurants and the beach, yet it's quiet at night. The rooms are new, clean, and equipped with great AC. The pool and hammocks are perfect for relaxation, and the surf shop attached to the hotel has quality boards. The owners are lovely and responsive, and the cleaning lady keeps everything spotless. Highly recommended!

Totally recommend this hotel.

This lodge offers a perfect location, just across the street from the beach, making it convenient for surfers to catch the waves. the owners are friendly and provide excellent service, ensuring a comfortable stay. the rooms are cozy and clean, with comfortable mattresses for a good night's sleep. the lodge also has a refreshing pool, perfect for cooling off after a day in the sun. there are various common areas to relax and a shared kitchen to use.

The lodge had a great pool and communal area with hammocks and chairs, perfect for relaxing after a day of surfing. the location was convenient, with supermarkets, restaurants, and a pharmacy all within walking distance. the owners were friendly and helpful, and the surf shop adjacent to the lodge had a great selection of equipment and offered surf lessons with knowledgeable local guides. the whole premises were beautiful and well-maintained, and the cleaning staff did a fantastic job of keeping everything clean.

Felt like part of the family, nothing to complain about.

My recent stay at Santeria Lodge in Playa Santa Teresa was amazing. The location is perfect, just a short walk away from the beautiful Playa Carmen beach. The lodge offers a great communal area with comfortable chairs and hammocks, as well as a refreshing pool. The owners, an Italian family, are friendly, flexible, and always ready to help. They even have a surf shop on-site with a fantastic selection of surf gear and the option for surf lessons. The newly renovated rooms are clean, cozy, and equipped with AC. I also loved the fact that supermarkets, ATMs, pharmacies, and restaurants were all within walking distance. I highly recommend Santeria Lodge for a relaxing and enjoyable stay in Santa Teresa.

Amazing location near the beach, supermarket, and restaurants. Great facilities, including a pool to escape from the beach.- Friendly and helpful staff who arranged transport for us.

The common kitchen was sparsely appointed. Not suitable for partying, more for relaxation and staging activities.

We had an exceptional stay at a cozy lodge near the beach. the owners, Valentina and Andrea, made us feel right at home and even offered yoga classes. We enjoyed the convenience of having a surf store next door and being just a few minutes' walk from the beach. the friendly atmosphere extended to the other guests, many of whom had been returning to the lodge for extended periods.

The curtain in our room was see-through, which made us feel a bit exposed. It would have been ideal to have a clothesline to dry our wet clothes after swimming or surfing.
