Important Information for Visitors

Welcome to Santa Teresa, a unique surf town surrounded by jungle. This is not a city but a special place with some quirks to be aware of:

Power and Water

• Power outages occur occasionally. When the electricity is out, water (which is pumped), Wi-Fi, and hot showers (electric) will be unavailable.
• Outages typically last from 10 minutes to 2 hours but may be longer during storms.

Air Conditioning

• Please turn off air conditioning when not in use to conserve power and avoid outages.

Security

• Always lock doors and windows when leaving.
• Use the safe, if available, for valuables.

Cooking

• Cooking uses propane tanks as Costa Rica has no gas pipelines. Tanks last a long time but can run out unexpectedly. Spare tanks are available, and assistance is provided for replacement.
• Hot water is electric, not gas-powered.

Food and Insects

• Avoid leaving food out to prevent ants from gathering. Store food in the fridge or sealed containers.
• Expect to see local wildlife such as ants, geckos, lizards, spiders, mosquitoes, roaches, mice, bats, snakes, and occasionally a non-dangerous scorpion.

Toilets

• Do not flush toilet paper due to the lack of a drainage system. Use the bin provided next to the toilet.

Final Note

You are in a raw, authentic, and unforgettable place. Embrace the experience, be respectful, and enjoy the jungle lifestyle. Pura vida!
