The hotel is close to the nice beach. We had an ocean view room, but you don’t have neither a good view on the ocean or on the beach. Generally, the staff were friendly, rooms were nice and clean as well. Breakfast was okay, early bird breakfast wasn’t possible, in other hotels throughout our trip it was never a problem. Positive, free water refill.

We had a wonderful stay at Canaima Chill House!
The apartment was spacious and had everything we needed!
The shower offers a nice view into the forest, a lot of beautiful birds passed by.
The veranda was huge and had a swinging bed, perfect place to relax and read. There was even a connection to the kitchen (bar with chairs).
The pool was clean and refreshing, once in a while we saw a small group of monkeys.
The staff cleaned everything daily as there was a lot of dust swirled up from the dusty road. It didn’t bother us, it’s the season.
In general, they were really helpful and taking care of everything.

Americanized beach town. Crowded waters to surf.
Americanized beach town. Crowded waters to surf. Really bad infrastructure, roads are bad, no sidewalks and caos in traffic.
The beach itself is very beautiful and the waves are nice. Just the vibe is either you love it or you hate it.

Santa Teresa for us was a completely disastrous in terms of development. I cannot even imagine anyone wanting to live there. The scenery once you get beyond the mishmash of stores 3 centimeters from the really poor roads is wonderful. It is a surfer place and nothing more. I would not ever go back for any reason

Santa Teresa has the most beautiful beach.
Santa Teresa has the most beautiful beach. There are so many places to eat that have great food. Santa Teresa does not feel as crowded as some other beaches in Costa Rica, and I honestly feel very safe there. I would highly recommmend this place.

The property is amazing.
The property is amazing. The pool is super cute, the rooms are spacious and modern.
BUT the Beach Club/Restaurant charged us for things we didn’t order. We will always pay for everything we eat and drink but when things are added on our bills that we didn’t consume, we regretfully are super bitter. The hotel is looking into it and said they will get back to us. They have t yet.
Also, they advocate that they are an adult only hotel but there were kids at the restaurant and at pool.

Wooden shacks with corrugated metal roofs along a dusty dirt road. Restaurants use camping-style kitchens and where they get their groceries with absolutely no decent food market within at least two hours driving is their secret. There is absolutely no sewage system anywhere. Everyone just has a whole in the ground they call ‘septic system’. Just steps from the beach !! Would be interesting to have the water quality tested..

Lovely.
Lovely. Beautiful beach with soft sand, wonderful sunsets, great waves, a lot of nature.
A bit too many people (lots of surfers) and cars in some parts, but great offer in terms of cafes, restaurants, yoga and surf lessons.

I had a super moment with my wife. I'm very grateful. The location was epic with stunning views all over. The balcony with the jungle view, the balcony with the ocean view. We thought that the access was going to be harder but with our Rav4 rental car we made it with no problem, and actually, it is a few minutes from the center of Santa Teresa!
Before we booked we saw a review saying that the images didn't reflect reality... well.. we agree, they don't do! the reality is much better :)
Thank you! Coco Bungo has upgraded my experience in Santa Teresa so much which made me fall in love with it! The location is absolutely gorgeous, North Santa Teresa is the gem of the place. We were just a few steps from the beach and also Rocamar which is a great spot for food & drinks. The room was designed so beautifully and the staff was so friendly and helpful. Waking up hugged by a beautiful vegetation was a total treat. Highly recommended!
Great location right in the centre of Santa Teresa, a few minutes walk to the beach and directly opposite a supermarket.
There are shops, restaurants and surf schools everywhere.
It's on a busy, dirt, main road but far back enough and surrounded by foliage to not be bothered by the noise. The garden was tranquil and we spotted some wildlife.
The breakfast was good (fruit, bread, cake, jam, tea, coffee or water).
Excellent hosts - gave us a comprehensive list of all the best restaurants, distances and meal types etc, and also arranged surfing lessons for us. Property has a boho feel and a fantastic pool area. Location is ideal - short 5/10 minute walk to the beach. We stayed at a few different areas within CR and found Santa Teresa to have the best food options and good amount of stuff going on.
Up in the mountains overlooking Santa Teresa is this great escape. Stayed in the apartment which is way larger than expected, immaculately clean with all the required features for a perfect get away. The pristine pool is right at your doorstep. Delfina was waiting to welcome and show you the property and offered great service and was available at any time on WhatsApp
Marco was very nice and helpful. The beds are amazing (double sized bunk beds) and were very clean. Very chill but still social vibe. Across from Selina North and close to the best surf beach of Santa Teresa. I visited when it was very new so a few things missed but I think these things will soon come! Till now one of the best hostel experiences I’ve had so far!!
Location is very good, away from santa Teresa, and 5 min walk to the beach. Clean place, very comfy bed, facilities in the room to make your own breakfast. The owner is very very friendly and helpful with tips for food and where to go. Swimming pool is small, but all you need, we were just there for 1 night.
I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel! The beds are comfy and I love the location, because it’s not so crowded and you have a beautiful beach close by to go for a surf or watch the stunning sunset. Wass very clean also and the kitchen is well equipped!
This hotel is 5 minute walk from beach and from town. Very convenient. Good AC. Simple but filling breakfast. Nice pool. Kitchenette was useful. Surf boards for rent were in good shape and cheaper than renting in town. Soft towels.
Great location, the hotel and rooms are well looked after and super clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The pool and sun beds come with the best view in Santa Teresa! Would definitely recommend!
The location and the vibe is absolutely dreamy - exactly what you would expect from the photos and a cute hotel in Santa Teresa. The restaurant is gorgeous too, with deliciousness overload.
We had a great stay.
The Place is nice and close to the Beach where you can surf.
The Hosts are very friendly and take care.
All in all the perfect Place to stay when in Santa Teresa :)
