Great location.

beautiful property, great location on the beach, easy access to sites around Santa Teresa. Note that "sleeps 8" means three bedrooms each with double beds and two with single futons. cleaning and concierge services are excellent. Note that there is a full kitchen but no on-site laundry. We would definitely return.

A True Gem

Truly in the heart of Santa Teresa, each family member found things to love about this property. Our 86 year old mother enjoyed the outdoor living, and the ability to see the ocean and watch the surfers from the patio. Our 2 daughters in their early 20's love the ability to walk to nearby shops, restaurants and bars, and enjoyed lounging on the chaises in the yard. My husband loved the surf break just outside of the property, and I loved my morning yoga classes at Casa Zen--just a 5 minute beach walk from the house. Many restaurants are within walking distance--the closest being Banana Beach, right next door. They play music nightly, and hosted a New Year's Eve party that went well into the next morning! We loved the fireworks and energy (the loud music did not bother us, but it might bother others). The kitchen space is a bit minimal, and not designed for cooking extensive meals, but when we cooked in it was more than adequate. Finally, there are some nocturnal critters that did on occasion wake us in the night. Sophie, Sophia and Miguel did a fine job of making us feel at home. We plan to return!

Incredible location!!

The property was in the absolute best location, right next door to a great restaurant (banana beach) and within walking distance of many incredible shops and food. The home was beautiful and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Concierge: Sophie was responsive and personable. As long as we planned ahead on things including coordinating a nanny, a crib and high chair for our baby, groceries shopping, restaurant reservations, fishing trips - she was on it! The housecleaner was also fantastic, although some of our clothing was ruined in the wash. And maintenance was fabulous as well. I must say, the pool was not in great condition. Many of the tiles were falling off or into the pool and you could not see bottom which was a little off putting. You could hear the base of banana beach restaurant at night as well. There was also a ton of wildlife around the house (cats, crabs, dogs, iguanas, monkeys, raccoons, squirrels, frogs and a mosquitos) and even in the house (spiders, crabs, and ants) so also be prepared for nature and all its glory. Overall it was a fabulous trip and a great place with great staff. A few upgrades to the pool and not having our clothes destroyed would have made it 5 stars.

Gorgeous views

Beautiful home right on the beach. There is a restaurant one lot over with pretty good food (more on that below). House was very clean and comfortable. We spent the majority of our time in the outdoor areas. Overall a very nice property and we would return. Pros: Very attentive property manager, assisted us with Mula rentals and dinner reservations. Grounds keeper and housecleaner were wonderful. Outdoor space is unbelievable with many lounging areas so guests can spread out. Pool is lovely with a shallow end to sit in during hot days. Private yard with beautiful landscaping. Nicely appointed bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. AC in all rooms was excellent. Steps to the beach. Howler monkeys came through several mornings. Security guard at night although I’m not sure if that was good or bad…. Cons: There is construction next door, they worked seven days a week so our dream of listening to the waves crashing only came true around 5pm - but then the music from the restaurant next door started ;). The grounds keeper is there all day most days so there wasn’t a lot of privacy. He wasn’t obtrusive but we weren’t expecting that. It is a bit of a trek to get there (nothing to do with the house just a very long drive from Liberia). You need to have transportation there, we rented “Mula’s” (four-seater ATV’s) to get around. We stay almost exclusively in vacation rentals rather than hotels and this one makes our top 5 list - just ask about any construction before booking if quiet is important to you.

Outdoor Living

The Beach House was a wonderful place for our family to spend time relaxing and enjoying so many amenities. This house was special inside and outside. The bedrooms were comfortable and spacious. The outdoor showers were new for us. However the outdoor spaces were especially enjoyable for us. Eating every meal outside was fun. The pool was a nice step out of the ocean. The lounge areas allowed each family member to find their own relaxing space to unwind or enjoy small gathering spaces. The location of this house being on beach front was especially a plus for us. It was a great week!

Great Location, Excellent support and help from staff of rental

We had a great stay at this VRBO. The property manager was very helpful. She provided excellent recommendations and support while we were there. The home has a house keeper and an outside maintenance person who both come each day to keep the home tidy and clean. The pool overlooking the ocean was a fun and relaxing escape from the tropic heat at mid day.

Perfect family & friends vacation

We had a wonderful time staying at the Beach House. The property has the best location, just few steps away from the ocean and the views are just breathtaking. Everything was well maintained and super clean. Julie, the property manager, was very helpful and kind. We had a problem with the toaster that was not working well and she immediately came to replace it. Also, she gave us very good recommendations for activities to do in Santa Teresa. My kids (12, 11 & 7) were very sad when it was time to leave. They even asked us if we could buy this house and stay there forever. We’ll definitely be back! 100% recommended for those who are looking for an unforgettable getaway.

Bienvenue au paradis

La villa était parfaite. Tel que décrite dans l'annonce. Les photos représentent exactement ce que vous allez louer. La villa est vraiment entretenue avec soin. Nous avons eu un problème de climatisation et il a été réglé rapidement. Lee la manager, a envoyé quelqu'un pour regarder le problème dans les 15 minutes! Un service impeccable. La villa est très bien situé au bord de l'eau, vous pouvez profiter à la fois de la merveilleuse piscine ou de l'océan. Vous profiterez aussi de l'espace extérieur , canapé, table, hamac... S'est à mon sens la meilleure partie de la villa. Etre à l'extérieur, entouré de cette merveilleuse nature est juste incroyable. Merci à Vered pour avoir répondu à toutes nos questions avant le départ et à Lee quand nous étions sur place. Elle nous a aidé et conseillé sans compter et toujours avec le sourire. Vous ne regretterez pas votre séjour à la Villa Beach House!

Excellent getaway with family!

Our family of five (2 adults, 3 kids age 14, 11 and 9) had an amazing stay at The Beach House. The property is exactly as listed, and more. Vered communicated with me directly prior to arrival on the VRBO app, and was quick to respond to all of my questions. Lee was the caretaker/concierge who introduced herself via WhatsApp once we arrived in Costa Rica, and responded to me usually within minutes. The property is immaculate, and felt very luxurious. It was very hot while we were there, and the A/C was welcome after some time in the sun. The water cooler is a nice bonus, but I would recommend a mat of some sort in front of it as the tile is slick if it gets wet at all and I did slip and fall while there (my fault). Maria was the housekeeper who came in each morning and was friendly and helpful. She does not speak English but it was not a problem at all with Google translate. Mauricio tends the pool and house maintenance, is super friendly and again, quick to fix anything - we had a toilet that was not working and he was at the property to fix it within 5-10 minutes. The afternoon before we left the entire street lost water, and Lee and Mauricio were there problem solving and making a plan for the house if they couldn't get it back on, and communicated that well to us. We did get water back, later that afternoon/early evening. We had been at the beach or in the pool all day and it did not disrupt. There was a security guard stationed right outside the property on the private street, and it helped us feel very safe. In the evening if I was out on the patio late reading, it felt completely safe. Banana Beach is right next door, I would say American prices but delicious food. Surfboard, boogie board and rash guard rentals there also. The only thing I would change (and it is so minor) is the lighting at night facing the beach. We had multiple people approach the home thinking it was a restaurant because of the lighting. Not a big deal and the lighting wasn't bad sitting on the patio, it just seemed to attract passerby. The pool was wonderful and so clean. The tray of fresh fruit and bottle of wine upon arrival was also a nice touch. Well done. We didn't want to leave and hope to return soon!

Amazing!

Thank you Vered for sharing your home! I really appreciate all of your help leading up to our travel. The Beach House was nothing short of amazing. We had the best time using the outdoor space and enjoying the beautiful beachfront views. While staying at the house, Vered connected us with Danielle. She was local and a great resource. We used her to bounce ideas off of for best places to surf, good restaurants, close excursions, etc. There were two caretakers on the property as well, Maria and Mauricio. The home and property were spotless. They really went above and beyond to ensure everything looked very nice and that we had everything we needed (fresh towels, propane and a clean grill, etc). I traveled with my husband and we met up with 2 other couples who we shared the house with. Vered had let us know that the roads in Santa Teresa were not paved and recommended ATVs. We decided to rent a golf cart that seated 6 for our entire visit, and rented ATVs just 1 of our days. Blue Zone Buggy arranged to have the golf cart delivered the morning after we arrived. We really enjoyed not having a car and would opt for the golf cart / ATV route again. Some of our restaurant favorites while in Santa Teresa: Breakfast/Coffee Spots - The Bakery and La Gilda Lunch Spot - The Taco Corner Dinner Spots - Katana, Amici, and Zuma **A lot of shops and restaurants were cash only. There is a bank in town. I recommend getting some of the local currency when you arrive. Grocery Store - We loved Ronny’s and ended up doing a lot grilling because it was so convenient. Fun things to do outside of Santa Teresa: Isla Tortuga - we went with Cabo Blanco. Victor was our captain and Wender was the chef. Great guys. We saw dolphins, went snorkeling, and Victor spotted a green sea turtle for us to watch from the boat for a bit. So cool. Surf Lessons at Hermosa Beach - Happy Days with Alonso and Ronnie (@Banana Beach). They were recommended by Danielle. We had a blast, and everyone was able to surf by the end. Motezuma Falls and Butterfly Brewery - we drove ATVs over to Montezuma and then hiked into see the falls. We parked in the bottom lot and ran into Crazy Carlos. You will find him on Trip Advisor. We also stopped at Butterfly Brewery on our way back. This was a great day trip. The ATVs are perfect for all of the unpaved bumpy roads.

Coming back!

Great place on the beach. Lots of places to stay here in Santa Teresa but very few let you sit at the outside dinner table and watch the surf. Better yet awesome surf lessons from Alonzo of Happy Day’s surf school right next door at Banana Beach. The staff taking care of the house were great. Rooms all cleaned and ready every day and the pool and grounds cleaned every day. Danielle was great to point us in the right direction for food, fun and shopping. The trip there from the Liberia airport was crazy but adventurous. We will be back.

Santa Teresa Stay

We had an amazing time staying at The Beach House.CR in Santa Teresa. The property is beautiful, spacious and is in the perfect central location. There are many options for eating/drinking, etc. that are within walking distance of the house. There is also a natural food market right across the road. The front porch/sitting-dining area is just perfect! Very comfortable, the pool is great and the views are amazing. Danielle the property manager was wonderful - helpful in arranging activities and transportation and with suggestions for restaurants and "must dos". There is staff that comes to clean the house and the pool and yard everyone more and they are great. Very unobtrusive while also focusing on all the small details. I would definitely recommend this property to family and friends and would definitely return for another stay.

This house and location is perfect. The surfers could surf right in front of the house. The house is nice and very comfortable-Perfect for our family of 5. The surf break is intermediate to advanced. Bring cash for the restaurants-food is expensive but we loved Banana Beach, La Gilda, Taco Corner, and Habeneros. Easy access around Santa Teresa. No need for a car. Take a shuttle from Tambor if flying in. Danielle is a great manager for the house and a great resource. She is very responsive and helpful.
