Favorite Trip I’ve never had such a kind and welcoming Airbnb host, and the place itself was simply the most beautiful Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in. Spotlessly clean, peaceful, and instantly felt like home. Surrounded by nature and animals, it truly was my favorite trip of the year. 🤍

I must express my gratitude to this Host Louis , I’ve been traveling all around the world and it’s very rare to find such people, every few days he would text or call me and ask how are we and if we need any help with activities or restaurants, he booked for us surfing lessons for the kids, he booked for us the travel to Playa Los Vivos in many more. He helped us to book private chef for our entire stay. He came to visit us several times, so we got to know each other on a personal level. Words can’t describe how grateful we are for everything you’ve done for us and for your hospitality , thank you from our family .

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful villa, surrounded by lush jungle and just a short drive from the center of Santa Teresa and its stunning beaches. In our opinion, staying here is far more enjoyable than staying in the town center, as you get to experience the peace and beauty of nature. A 4x4 vehicle is essential to reach the property, but it’s absolutely worth it. The Balinese-style villa is beautifully designed, fully equipped and offers breathtaking views. Louis was an exceptional host—kind, responsive, proactive, and always willing to help with anything we needed. We stayed here with our two teenagers and had a wonderful time. We would happily return and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in Santa Teresa.
