3BR villa in Nicoya

3BR Beachside home w/Pool - 150 feet to ocean - Houses for Rent in Playa Santa Teresa, Puntarenas, Costa Rica

This place is exactly what it says it is, and that’s the highest compliment I can give an Airbnb. It’s a unique open-air surf compound steps from the beach, you fit into the place, not the other way around, and if you come in understanding that, it’s fantastic. The kids practically lived in the pool. The beach is a two-minute walk. The bedrooms have ice-cold AC when you want it. And the attached El Patio cafe became our private kitchen, genuinely some of the best food we had in two weeks in Costa Rica, thirty seconds from our door. Yes, it’s jungle-adjacent living: you’ll share the night with the local wildlife, you lock up your food, and it’s rustic in the best way. That’s all in the listing and the reviews, and it’s part of the charm. Juan’s check-in instructions were thorough and communication was easy even while he was traveling. A relaxing one of a kind stay!

Very spacious and nice house, ideal for enjoying the beach and surfing with friends!

Maison très spacieuse et agréable, idéale pour profiter de la plage et du surf entre amis !

We went with a group of 7 friends. Despite the open-plan design of the house, we never had any problems. The house is extremely comfortable and safe for a group of friends or families with older children. It had everything offered, and in the front part, there is a café that offers very good options. It is literally 1 block from the beach, located on the main street with all the cafés and restaurants nearby. There's even a supermarket just 1 block away. Juan always responded to our questions and even gave us advice and offered help.

Fuimos con un grupo de 7 amigas. A pesar del concepto abierto de la casa, nunca tuvimos problemas, la casa es sumamente cómoda y segura para grupo de amigas o familias con hijos grandes. Tenía todo lo ofrecido y en la parte de adelante tiene un café que ofrece opciones muy buenas. Está literalmente a 1 cuadra de la playa sobre la calle principal con todos los cafés y restaurantes cerca. Incluso un supermercado a 1 cuadra. Juan siempre respondió a las consultas e incluso nos asesoró y ofreció ayuda.

This was our third Airbnb stay during a 10 day trip. They were all wonderful, but this was absolutely our favorite. When we walked in, it was not exactly what we expected, more rustic than anticipated. But after four nights, we loved all its charm and did not want to leave.  So many great things to say about the home and about Juan’s assistance during our stay. On our first day Juan was very quick to respond to help fix our flat tire, as well as any other question we had.  We successfully combatted the daytime mosquitoes with the outdoor fans (mosquitos were gone in the evening, surprisingly), and we were delighted with our  nighttime visitors, including a very sweet  cat, a disinterested dog passing by, a skittish coati that disappeared too quickly, a poolside crane (twice), and many monkeys in the trees above that were so fun to watch  Such a great experience, we hope to be back someday, thank you Juan! (PS, We enjoyed the adjacent el patio cafe so much we had meals there four times)

We had a wonderful week at Juan’s place in Santa Teresa.  Woke up to birds chirping and a few howler moneys too.  Easy walk to the beach for morning dips and surfing.  6am surfboard rentals on the beach was really convenient.  The supermarket was 200m down the road.  The beds were comfy and the bedrooms had air conditioning which was lovely.

Location, location, location! We really enjoyed having our own "oasis" right in town, with very close proximity to the beach. It was so convenient to have access to many, many wonderful restaurants - all within walking distance. El Patio Cafe is connected to the property and has excellent breakfast and lunch food. Our favorite part of each day was walking to the beach for the most beautiful sunset. We were able to walk to the beach in just a few minutes, which was very convenient, as it was quite hot when we were there and we often needed to return to the property to cool down in the pool. The pool was small, but all we needed to relax and unwind after some time in the hot sun. The property has several neighbors, but noise was never an issue at night, as each bedroom has air conditioning. As noted, this is outdoor living, so be prepared for evening critters (raccoon) and ants/bugs (bug zappers on site that help with it). We saw howler monkeys during our stay. We will return!

This place is really special. We were five people spending the whole week outside in the open air kitchen and living area while the monkeys were sitting above us in the trees and Kolibris flying around in the small garden. The area is perfect, a bit outside of the centre but still right next to restaurants and cafés (yes, you have your own entrance door to the El Patio Café!). The beautiful beach is just a two minutes walk straight from your house. Communication with Juan was excellent. It‘s not super clean and the road is quite noisy but that‘s everywhere in Santa Teresa due to surf dudes on too much testosteron driving motorbikes and quads. This place us truly special, highly recommended!

We had a great stay at Juans place! It is street parking but there’s always spots that are easy to use. It is right off the street so there’s quite a bit of traffic noise but barely in the closed rooms. It’s is not a 150ft walk to beach, it’s down a rough alley across the street and through the jungle where a little creek crossing is, not super suitable for anyone over the age of 50. But the beach is awesome and the sand is great walking sand, fun beach bars along the beach. BRING BUG SPRAY!! The house is completely open and even with bug spray I managed to get hundreds of bites. Also there’s nothing at the house to take to the beach to sit on so if you’re fine with just a beach towel you’re good but no chairs or unbrellas. Juan is super responsive and super kind and his cafe right in front of the house is delicious and must be tried! Would come back!

Awesome trip to Costa Rica! Amazing place. Great location. Juan was super responsive. Would definitely stay here again.

Staying at this home was perfect for me and my girl friends for our trip. Location is perfect, a little bit on the more quiet side of town but just as accessible to the more lively areas as well. We loved how close it was to the beach, the easy access to El Patio Restaurant next door (try the Super Special Smoothie Bowl!) and the outdoor living layout. Highly recommend & would love to come back ◡̈ pura vida!

Thank you Juan for being an amazing host, great place. Distance to the beach is awesome

We- a group of 8- had a wonderful stay at Juan’s place! We The location is perfect, just a minute from the amazing beach and some good restaurants, and the house was spacious, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed staying in a couple of nights, cooking dinner in the outdoor kitchen. Since the house is so open to the outdoors, we had some visits by various critters and animals, something to keep in mind for those who aren’t used to that. Juan was always responsive and helpful if we needed anything, and even let us stay a few extra hours since we had a late departure.

We stayed here over Christmas and the place was perfect. Very central and just across the road from the beach. We loved the outdoor living lifestyle 😍 Really easy to find and having the cafe right next door was ideal Loved hearing the howler monkeys that live in the trees above!! A couple of nights we had raccoons invade the kitchen, even though food was sealed/put away they managed to move the chairs aside and get into the cupboards!! So just an FYI to put all food in the fridge/take into your bedrooms!

Juan’s place is wonderfully located on the northern edge of town—extremely central and just a 5-minute walk to the surf breaks, with some of the best restaurants close by as well. Being so central, you do hear some street noise, but it’s a tradeoff for the convenience. Aside from the bedrooms and bathrooms, everything is outdoors, which really lets you enjoy Costa Rica’s beautiful nature and laid-back lifestyle. Juan was a very responsive host and answered all of our questions promptly. Cleaning service came every other day, which was much appreciated. All around, a great stay!

We absolutely loved our stay at Juan’s place.  Great surf right across the street, amazing cafe right next door. I loved cooking in the outdoor kitchen. The pool was refreshing.  The AC was cold.  Very spacious.  Juan was super helpful with ATV rentals.  So glad we chose to stay here.  Can’t wait to come back!

Excellent place, extremely quiet and as shown in the photos, the host is super excellent and friendly, highly recommended

Excelente lugar sumamente tranquilo y como se ve en las fotos el anfitrión súper excelente y amable súper recomendado

I cannot say enough positive things about Juan and his home. We arrived early and he let us leave our baggage at the house and we headed to the beach. I had endless questions and Juan answered them in a very timely manner. We even had an incident with the pool and the raccoons and he took care of it right away :) The bedrooms and bathrooms are amazing and comfortable and the AC was really nice after a long day. The noise from the road was non-existent on our stay and parking was never a problem. We cooked at home with our 4 kids every night except one. A few more pots and pans would have been nice, but again, we cooked at home more than the usual guests. Juan, thank you!!! You are amazing

Amazing! The place is perfectly located and exactly as the photos illustrated. We had an amazing time!

The house is perfect and the location incredible. Juan was very kind and helped us with everything we needed. The only thing we didn't expect was having to park our cars on the street. Juan apologized because it was advertised differently, but the place is very safe and we didn't have to worry about that. Highly recommended!

It was a great place lots of natural wonder

We loved this very pura vida spot! The outdoor vibe was very beachy and the attached cafe was a fun touch. Amazing location. There is a raccoon so keep all your food in the fridge.

Loved my stay here. This is the perfect location in Santa Theresa with great beach access and restaurants in walking distance in both directions. Also the backdoor leading to a cafe is a fun amenity. A/c was great in all rooms, pool is small but fun, and the open layout feels beachy. Will definitely stay here again!

What a special place this is! We had an incredible week at Juan's magical home. It's true outdoor living, in the best way, where you'll truly feel like you're living in the jungle. It's also steps to the beach, attached to a wonderfully charming cafe (great food, great coffee, great vibes) which made getting breakfast so easy. It's also surrounded by a ton of amazing restaurants, bars, cafes, and cute little shops. Juan himself was really sweet and super responsive - it was great having little moments chatting with him. Overall, I can't recommend this place enough. It's so unique and makes for such a special stay in this charming little community. Thanks Juan, we'd love to come back!

Juan's Villa in Santa Teresa is great! Located right across from the beach break in Santa Teresa for surfing, it couldn’t have been more convenient to walk to the beach for sunrise and sunset surf sessions. The location is ideal—close enough to enjoy the town, yet peaceful and relaxing. The pool and kitchen are great perks, and the cleaning staff are all very helpful as well. Juan is an incredible host, always incredibly responsive and attentive. He makes sure you have everything you need, providing excellent recommendations for things to do, including the best surf spots, restaurants, nightlife, horseback riding tours, and quad rentals. Juan even went above and beyond by offering to set up quad rentals and have them delivered directly to the villa. Plus, El Patio Cafe, located right in front, served amazing food. —Juan’s hospitality truly made this a wonderful experience!

The house was spacious, close to the beach, and had the perfect balance of comfort and style. I loved the outdoor area and it was conveniently connected to a coffee shop. Overall, this Airbnb made for the perfect girls' weekend. We all left feeling refreshed and grateful for the wonderful memories we made. Whether you're looking for a relaxing retreat or a spot to catch up with friends, I highly recommend this place!

The house is very good, very comfortable and Juan helped us with everything at all times. We really enjoyed it!! We'll be back

Muy buena la casa, muy cómoda y Juan nos ayudó con todo en todo momento. La disfrutamos mucho!! Volveremos

Amazing location, cool space, comfortable bedrooms (good beds, good shower temperature/water pressure, good AC). Convenient cleaning service. Juan was a very responsive and accommodating host. Would absolutely stay again. 'Things to know' to ensure you are happy with the stay - the space is attached to the El Patio Cafe (with no locking door between them; security is not an issue, but it is worth knowing) and aside from the bedrooms/bathrooms, it is totally open (as pictured), so you can't for example leave out any food overnight (takes a bit of extra attentiveness and cleanliness). I would also say that while the pictures are accurate some of the items on the property have seen better days (like the blankets). I wouldn't call it a luxury Airbnb, but it is cool, comfortable, and incredibly convenient to the beach, with a good host.

The place was really beautiful and is exactly as you see in the pictures. Juan was also an amazing guest, very responsive and also was available to provide recommendations on activities in the area. I would definitely stay here again! Pura vida!

Juan’s home was perfect for our family vacation! It was in a great location with convenient access to the beach, restaurants, shops, and the super market. It was so nice relaxing by the pool in the afternoons and there was plenty of space for our family of 6. Having the El patio cafe right there was so nice too! They have the best food and most friendly, relaxing atmosphere! They were very accommodating for our three littles. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in town!

I have so many good things to say but I'll try to keep it short! First and foremost, the space was so beautiful, I loved the openness of the downstairs/communal area for everyone to hang out. The "communal" area, as I call it, has a roof to protect from rain, but is still outside, but this didn't bother us at all. Each room was spacious, and the beds were very comfortable, with A/C mini splits in each room. Outside of the Airbnb, the walk to the beach is directly across the road and is a quick 2-minute walk!! The coffee/breakfast restaurant right by the Airbnb was so cute, and friendly, and had great food! I will definitely be back!!

Words can’t express our gratitude for Juan and his beautiful home in Santa Teresa. Not only was the location and house great but Juan, as a host, was beyond exceptional. From giving us local recommendations for ATV rentals, shuttle services, restaurants, etc. I highly recommend this spot if you are traveling to Santa Teresa. A truly wonderful experience. It was tough to leave but we’ll be back again for sure. Cheers! 🤙🏽

The place is very close to the beach, supermarket and conveniently connected. We parked off street and had no problem. Juan has been very responsive for any recommendations or problems. Perfect for a larger group or family as benefit from big rooms and beds as well as multiple bathrooms. Would stay again, thanks!

The stay was amazing. Lots of monkeys around ! Right next to an amazing yoga studio and a lot of great restaurants. Very safe area.

Juan was super attentive during our stay. The house is super close to the beach and as shown in the pictures. The kitchen could have more utensils that help during the stay but it was not something that will affect us. It is an excellent property to travel with pets as it is safe.

Juan fue super atento durante nuestra estancia. La casa esta super cerca de la playa y es tal y como se muestra en las fotos. La cocina podría tener más utensilios que ayuden durante la estancia pero no fue algo que nos afectará. Es una excelente propiedad para viajar con mascotas ya que es segura.

We loved this home! Super cute and comfortable, and the area was very conveniently located.

Amazing location and great price! Extremely close to a lot of great restaurants and extremely close to Santa Teresa beach for amazing surf. Highly recommend! Juan was also a great host who replied extremely fast, gave great recommendations, and help us get around the city.

Thank you Juan! It was so nice to see how the space has grown and improved! Can’t wait to see it again in the future. Definitely a great home for a group! We had a blast. Loved the pool.

We very much enjoyed our stay! We enjoyed the outdoor living space and the close proximity to the beach. The bedrooms had excellent air conditioning to allow for a nice break from the heat. Considering the hustle and bustle life of Santa Teresa the home was enough on the out skirts that it was fairly peaceful when we needed it. The howler monkeys spent many days hanging out around us and were great entertainment! A few small updates/additions in the kitchen could make the experience even better however we made it work and really enjoyed ourselves! Thanks for everything Juan!

Juan was amazing and he was able to accommodate us for a last minute reservation. The house is large and love the indoor/outdoor living. It’s a one minute walk to an amazing surfing beach. Keep in mind it’s right off the main road so it’s noisy, we brought a portable speaker and listened to music so it didn’t really bother us. AC in the rooms works fantastic! Location is great with the beach trial is literally across the street!

Juan's place is just fantastic. Close to the sea. Ready for everything. We were surprised by the noise and dust from the road with the cars and mountain bikes the first night, but we got used to it. Living outside is a first for us and we would recommend it. We were two couples and had enough room. We could hear the howler monkeys one night. Impressive. The pool is refreshing. The kitchen is full. The beds are very comfortable.

Le logement de Juan est juste fantastique. Tout prêt de la mer. Prêt de tout. Nous avons été surpris par le bruit et la poussière de la route avec les voitures et les vtt la première soirée, mais nous nous sommes habitués. Vivre dehors est une première pour nous et nous vous le recommandons. Nous étions 2 couples et avions assez de place. Nous avons pu entendre les singes hurleurs une nuit. Impressionnant. La piscine est rafraîchissante. La cuisine est complète. Les lits sont très confortables.

We loved our time at Juan's place. Pros - the photos show it as it actually is - outdoor living at its best! The location is prime- it sits behind El Patio cafe (the best!!!) and right across the road from direct access to the beach. It is also steps away from our favourite soda (local bistro) and just doors away from an excellent grocery store. The house has three big bedrooms - two upstairs, each with a shower room, and the other downstairs, across the way from a shower room. The pool was wonderful and used almost constantly while at home in the daytime. It is cleaned regularly by a gardener and there is also a maid who comes on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and who will launder your clothes for you (no access to laundry room as locked). Cons -The place really is outdoor living though and there are nightly guests in the form of mosquitos and raccoons. (citronella candles available at market). Stow your trash can away from the raccoons - we learned the hard way! Overall - great!!

stayed at Juan’s place for 10 days. the location is key just steps away from the beach and local shops/restaurants. the place was very spacious and the air conditioning in the rooms was so refreshing. juan was a great host who was very responsive and friendly. would definitely recommend his pace and stay again ◡̈

Juan is a spectacular host. Always very attentive and responding to inquiries very quickly. The house is perfect. Very comfortable. The large rooms, the giant beds, very good maid service, the showers with hot water and good pressure, everything worked perfectly. 100% recommended if you want to be close to the beach and Santa Teresa. And as a plus, 10 meters from the Juan house has a coffee where breakfast is one of the best of Santa Teresa.

Juan un anfitrión espectacular. Siempre muy atento y respondiendo las consultas muy rápido. La casa es perfecta. muy cómoda. Las habitaciones grandes, las camas gigantes, servicio de limpieza muy bueno, las duchas con agua caliente y buena presión, todo funcionó a la perfección. 100% recomendada si quieres estar cerca de la playa y del centro de santa teresa. Y como plus, a 10 metros de la casa Juan tiene un café donde el desayuno es uno de los mejores de santa teresa.

The house is situated at an extremely strategic point and has a lot of potential. The Host and cleaners were spectacular. To enhance the experience, it would be important to invest in the maintenance of the infrastructure and kitchen equipment (dishes and appliances, microwave) as we had several important challenges as being 5 adults and 4 children. The pool is a big plus

La casa está situada en un punto sumamente estratégico y tiene muchísimo potencial. El Anfitrión y el personal de limpieza fue espectacular. Para potenciar la experiencia seria importante  invertir en el mantenimiento de la infraestructura y en el equipamiento de la cocina (platos y electrodomésticos, microondas) ya que tuvimos varios retos importantes al ser 5 adultos y 4 niños. La piscina es un gran plus.

Juan's place was so great, and right next to El Patio cafe- absolutely delicious! Perfect location, we spent all day at the beach.

Juan is an excellent host, responsive while going above and beyond when we needed help buying ferry tickets.  Juan's place was exactly as described with an outdoor living area bringing you close to nature (but not too close!).  Watching howler monkeys in the trees above was very cool. Lots of space for our group of six adults with a large kitchen table perfect for evening card games.  The AC in the bedrooms was excellent, thank you!  The location was perfect, close access to the beach and shopping, but not too close to hustle of town. The pool  was perfect for cooling down after a day out.  Angelita did a great job cleaning the space on our second day, a necessity considering you are essentially living outdoors.  The El Patio Cafe is a must.  Thank you Juan, I would definitely recommend your property to anyone looking for a unique and fun experience.  Pura Vida!

Excellent place.  Fantastic location and good quality

Juan’s place is rad!!! We had a large group for a surf trip and were all comfortable and stoked with the location. The beach access is literally directly across the street and there are plenty of restaurants and a grocery store nearby which was super  convenient since we ended up cooking in the space quite often because the kitchen is so dope. The cafe in front is delicious. The pool is awesome too. Juan is the best! He was so attentive and helpful getting us settled and oriented to the many surf spots and things to do in the area. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay.

We stayed at Juan's place for 5 days as a family. Juan is very friendly and has always responded quickly to questions. The property is sensationally close to the beach. Restaurants and shops are right in front of the door. Nevertheless, it was very quiet and relaxing. We were overwhelmed by the area, the place, people, wildlife and nature. A vacation we won't forget. Thank you Juan

Wir waren für 5 Tage als Familie bei Juan. Juan ist sehr freundlich und hat immer schnell auf Fragen geantwortet. Die Unterkunft liegt sensationell nah am Strand. Restaurants und Geschäfte liegen quasi vor der Tür. Dennoch war es sehr ruhig und entspannend. Wir waren überwältigt von der Gegend, dem Ort, Menschen, Tierwelt und Natur. Ein Urlaub, den wir nicht vergessen werden. Vielen Dank Juan

Great spot! Awesome location right next to the beach. WiFi worked well. Would stay again!

Our family had a great time at Juan's place. The space was big enough for all of us and the kitchen was equipped so we could cook a few meals in, although there are many, many restaurants within walking distance. The house is located directly behind a great little cafe (so convenient) and just across the street from the beach access point. For those looking to work remote the wifi can indeed handle several video calls going at once, as advertised, Great spot and town for a vacation. Would recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at Juan’s airbnb. Actually a 1 minute walk to the beach and the place has a beautiful outdoor kitchen with air conditioned bedrooms inside. Easy walk to food, bars, grocery store. Would highly recommend to a group. One thing to note is the neighbors are very serious about no noise after 10/11pm. However, we would highly recommend staying here and Juan was awesome!

Great spot, thanks Juan. Appreciate you having us.

Great place that was across the street from the beach and close to a lot of places to eat/drink nearby. The cafe that is in front/part of the place is great and very convenient too. They would even bring our orders to the house!

Juan was a great host. Very responsive and always available. Would absolutely stay there again.

Great central location, easy to move around in ST. Cute treehouse vibe. Thanks Juan.

Amazing Airbnb, would definitely recommend and stay again!

Juan was very easy to communicate and very welcoming and helped us access the property when we arrived at 2am. The property was magical with a beautiful outdoor kitchen living area to hang out and 3 spacious rooms that had everything we needed. The location could not be any being 1 minute walk to the beach and a ton of restaurant and bars within a 5 minute walk and the disco which always hosts fun nights!  The house is also adjacent to an amazing cafe with delicious breakfast options. Could not have asked for a better airbnb rental.

This place shows you the true indoor/outdoor style of living in Santa Teresa. The attached cafè  saved us from going hungry many times, and the food is healthy and fresh!! The multiple King Beds made everyone feel well rested. I wouldn’t change a thing about this place and location!

Excellent location and excellent hospitality by Juan and Angelita. The restaurant also left us completely in love!

Excelente ubicación y excelente hospitalidad por parte de Juan y Angelita. Además, el restaurante nos dejó completamente enamorados!

An amazing place to stay, very close to the beach great caffe out front! I highly recommend the tico burrito!! Juan was amazing and really helped us when a tricky situation occurred. Biggest advice is to make sure front gate is double locked the Santa Teresa night life can get a little sketchy so just make sure to be safe! But overall a great place to stay!

Juan is an amazingly responsive host! Any questions or concerns were answered quickly and his place is very fun.

5 Stars all the way around.......Awesome location, close to everything and a simple path to one of the best surfing spots in Santa Teresa....Attached to El Patio which is just an added bonus.. It is open air except for the bedrooms so you can totally connect with nature and it was incredibly comfortable.....Angelita came by to clean a few times, she was also amazing. The rooms are air conditioned which is great for sleeping...Sounds of Monkeys early in the AM was an incredible way to wake up...Honestly this place rocks... If you get a chance to book, just do it, you will not regret....Juan was super helpful with anything we needed......Great Stay...

I stayed here with 4 friends, and we loved it. Juan allowed for an early check in and met us to show us around. The house sits behind Juan’s cafe which serves lots of delicious options for breakfast and lunch such as smoothie bowls, tacos, and coffee. Directly across the street is a beach access trail that leads to some of the best surf in town. The sweetest cleaning lady Angelita comes daily to tidy up, she also washed our clothes free of charge, though of course we left her tip for her help. Juan was responsive to our questions throughout our stay over message. We absolutely loved staying at the Jungle Paradise and would both recommend and revisit!

We loved our stay in Santa Teresa! Juan was such a great host, he responded to messages within minutes and assisted us with local recommendations and great places to see. The beach is within walking distance as is local stores and restaurants. Highly recommend!

Great place, super authentic and open to the outside experience.

We had a wonderful stay in Santa Teresa! Juan was so helpful by arranging transportation to and from the airport as well as to other excursions in the area. He recommended different activities, restaurants, stores, and times of day to go to the beach. When we got to the house he had beer, snacks, and umbrellas for us. We ate at the cafe every morning for breakfast and coffee and everything we had was amazing, and everyone working there is super nice and welcoming. It was also so convenient to have the outdoor shower coming back from the beach so you don’t get sand everywhere. We had an amazing stay 10/10 recommend! Thank you so much Juan :)

Juan's place is in am amazing location in Santa Teresa. steps from the beach and behind a cafe that serves coffee and acai bowls, I can't imagine a much better surf setup. had a little difficulty with the wifi and communication but well worth it for an amazing spot!

This place is amazing only a couple steps away from the beach. There is a surf shop right around the corner where you can borrow boards for a good price. The Airbnb also had an area where you can store them safely. The outdoor space is amazing and the kitchen well equipped. If you don’t feel like cooking you can just go to the attached cafe which has delicious food. I would recommend the space to every larger group. There even is AC !

Juan’s home was such a wonderful place for our group of 8. The location is amazing. We loved the open air feel of the kitchen and dining. The bedrooms were very comfortable. We would definitely return in the future.

This is a wonderful stay! Open, centered in the town, great food, A/C was great. We had a group of 9 people. We loved the outdoor area. Food options were fantastic! We highly suggest staying here

We loved Juan's place. It was an incredible spot, just a minute walk from the best waves. Juan was a great host, and we spent a lot of time at his Patio Cafe which is connected to the house. We are definitely coming back. Thanks Juan!

Great location and very clean (they clean every morning). Toilet wasn't working too well and they are outdoors, so be careful with mosquitos.

Juan's spot is so ideal for a large group - comfortable bedrooms with air conditioning, and an airy common space. The kitchen is well-equipped, and if you don't feel like cooking, el Patio Cafe (Juan's cafe) is right there for a delicious smoothie bowl. Angela comes every day to clean and is so kind and friendly. The location couldn't be better. Right across the street from the beach, and on the quieter end of the main street. We can't wait to come back!

This is the way! If you want a really cool experience staying in Santa Teresa....Stay here. Plenty of air con rooms, bathrooms and a wide open dining! Situated behind "El Patio" which has the absolute best food in town, I highly recommend breakfast or lunch here. We were able to walk across the man street and enjoy Playa Santa Teresa. We also enjoyed Playa Hermosa 4 KM down the road. My new favorite place to visit is ST. Thanks Juan!

This place is beautiful and comfortable, Just 2 mins walking distance from the beach. The cafeteria El Patio in front of the house is delicious. Angela, the cleaning lady is adorable, very nice and helpful, if you ask her and you buy the ingredients, she'll make a delicious & authentic costarrican breakfast. I highly recommend this place.

Juan’s place is tucked behind his very delicious cafe in the busy town of Santa Teresa. If you are not familiar with the area, Santa Teresa is a bustling touristy surfing town that has one main road that is very busy. Thankfully Juan’s place is towards the end of town making it slightly less noisy than I would imagine the main part of town to be. The house has an open air kitchen but the bedrooms have A/C and are large with lots of beds. The space is big enough for two families, we stayed with our family of 3 kids and my sister and her family. We enjoyed listening to the howler monkeys, we did not enjoy listening to the loud 20 year olds partying until the wee hours of the mornings but we took this with a grain of salt as I would not consider Santa Teresa to be a very family friendly town, it is much more suited to the young 20 year old surfers and sunbathers. That being said if Santa Teresa is for you, Juan’s place is a great place to stay, you will love eating breakfast or lunch at his cafe which is located directly in front of the house, the food is beautiful and delicious. There is a woman who comes every day to clean which was a bit much for us but perhaps that is something others may enjoy. The path to the beach is across the street, it is a nice enough path although it could use some trail maintenance to keep it looking clean and tidy. There is a very nice grocery store with lots of options just a few meters down from Juan’s place, we enjoyed being able to cook our own food most days. Juan was very helpful with recommendations for calmer beaches in the area as well as surfing instructors.

Juan's place is perfect for a group of friends looking for an artistic home with a minute walk to the beach. He gave our group many suggestions and was super easy to communicate with. The path to the beach was situated in front of the cafe, which was highly convenient. The house is on the better side of the Santa Teresa main strip (in our opinion), with all of the best bars, grocery stores, restaurants, cafes and surf shops within walking distance. We had a car with us, which wasn't necessary. The highlight of this house was waking up and having coffee/ breakfast at Juan's cafe. Not only is the food excellent, but the friendly staff would personally deliver our coffees and smoothies to the house (behind the restaurant). The only note I have was some of the kitchen appliances needed replacing and were challenging to use. So if you're planning on doing some serious cooking, this may not be the best place for you. However, the convenience of Juan's cafe made up for this. :-) All aside, we had a fun and memorable time!

Juan was an amazing host who was helpful from the booking process all the way to check out. He met us at the Airbnb the first day and showed us around and has the cutest cafe in the front. The open aspect of the home is the best features & is perfect for a family or a group of friends. It's conveniently located near all the bars, restaurants, shops and the BEACH! Highly recommend Juan and his home!

Very great host, we had a great experience! Close to the beach, great for surfing! Would recommend it!

The definition of Pura Vida is Juan, the house, and the coffee courtyard that is in front of the house and that Juan manages. The house is 10 points, with absolutely all the comforts and in the best possible location, 100 meters from the best wave of Santa Teresa and a meters walk from the best places to eat, supermarket and surf shops. The coffee patio is in front of the house, where you can eat the best breakfasts, lunches and snacks of Santa Teresa, with the comfort of leaving the house and having it in front, all the staff who work in the courtyard are great and make you feel at home. And Juan was one of the reasons that the trip was perfect, attentive, generous and willing to help in every last detail. I have no doubt that it is the best place to stay in Santa, whether to go with friends, family, as a couple or in any way. Thank you very much and Pura Vida 🤙🏽🤙🏽

La definicion de pura vida es juan, la casa, y el patio cafe que queda enfrente a la casa y que juan maneja. La casa 10 puntos, con absolutamente todas las comodidas y en la mejor ubicacion posible, a 100 metros de la mejor ola de santa teresa y a metros caminando de los mejores lugares para comer, supermercado y surfshops. El patio cafe queda enfrente a la casa, donde se comen los mejores desayunos, almuerzos y meriendas de santa teresa, con la comodidad de salir de la casa y tenerlo enfrente, todo el personal que trabaja en el patio son unos genios y te hacen sentir en casa. Y juan fue uno de los motivos para que el viaje fuera perfecto, atento, generoso y dispuesto a ayudar en el mas minimo detalle. No me queda ninguna duda que es el mejor lugar para quedarse en santa, ya sea para ir con amigos, familia, en pareja o en la modalidad que sea. Muchas gracias y pura vida 🤙🏽🤙🏽

Juan´s place is situated behind his Café "El Patio", which serves delicious breakfast and lunch. The house is perfect for anyone, who wants to experience the surfer vibe of Santa Teresa. The house has many cute details and one can feel straight at home, once arriving. Juan gives many local tips and helps book tours, surf lessons and shuttles back to the ferry. Everyone in the Café and the neighbourhood was extremely nice, so that we felt welcomed in Santa Teresa. The house has 3 bedrooms, which can fit 12 people. That way it doesn´t get too crowded and everyone has their own space. Many restaurants and cool (surfer) shops are just meters away and the beach is max. 1 minute away. The surf racks are very helpful and underline the "surfer lifestyle vibe" of the house! Thanks to Juan and his colleagues for making the trip a huge success! Pura Vida!

Easy communication, nice place. Very open so we had some unpleasant animals, but on the whole we are happy. Low wall to wall with nice cafe

Smidig kommunikation, fint ställe. Väldigt öppet så vi fick besök av lite otrevliga djur, men på det stora hela är vi nöjda. Låg vägg i vägg med trevligt kafé

Juan’s place makes you feel like you’re right I’m the middle of a beachy  jungle! It’s sort of like glamping and my friends and I had a great time. It’s an open space walking distance to the beach and cafes. Juan can set up tours and he had great recommendations on where to eat and what to do. Great place overall!

The place has a rustic design, is about 100 meters from the beach and has on the property a coffee from the host that sells very tasty breakfasts and lunches. The common area is cozy, and pets are allowed.

El lugar tiene un diseño rústico, está a unos 100 metros de la playa y tiene en la propiedad un café del anfitrión que vende desayunos y almuerzos muy sabrosos. El área común es acogedora, y se aceptan mascotas.

A crazy and indulgent place and a really nice perfect host took care of everything. There's one bad thing to say about

מקום מטורף ומפנק ומארח מושלם ממש נחמד דאג להכל. אין דבר רע אחד להגיד עליו

This place was truly amazing. Location was excellent, extremely clean and well equipped. Juan made our stay enjoyable and we were all sad to leave. If you’re even considering booking this, stop now and book it. You wont regret it. Juan, thank you for your generous hospitality!

Juan is a very great host. We had a good time at the house close by the sea and enjoyed our vacation.

Juan's Airbnb was wonderful! It's has a nice jungle / local feeling that you won't find in the resorts and it's just a short walk away from the beach. Juan has been very responsible and always available to help. The coffee next door is also amazingly convenient. Highly recommended!

Great vibe and Juan was incredibly helpful with any questions and suggestions to whatever you might need.

Amazing place! Great place to stay in Santa Teresa and a perfect location right by the beach. Juan is a great host and runs an amazing cafe right outside the place. Highly recommend it.

The AirBnB was great and Juan was particularly awesome in enabling our experience in Santa Teresa. He gave fishing recommendations, surf shop / surfing location recommendations, helped us return our stuff when we had to leave before things opened. Overall, it was just really great "customer service". The AirBnB is perfect for a surf trip kind of vibe. Great beach surfing is straight ahead of the house. There is a Patio restaurant in front of the house for good breakfast. The place is ~150 meters north of La Lora, which is the best Discoteque in town. The outdoor patio in the AirBnB is great to hang out around during day / night and drink some Imperials. There are tons of beds for as big or as small of a group as you want to bring. The only thing I would highlight is that this isn't a "lux villa". It's in great shape, super clean and has everything you need, this is just not you're pool villa on a hill. A couple showers and bathrooms are outdoors. AC is good in the bedrooms, but most of the time you'll spend outside. I would highly recommend this place and have really positive things to say. It's just not for you if you're looking for hotel-like "luxury".

Great location and Juan was very helpful!

Such a cool place. Location is perfect and about 2 minutes from the beach. Would definitely recommend. Juan is a lovely host.

Great location, you just need to walk like 100m to get to the beach and 300m to the closest supermarket. Totally recommended

This is the perfect place to stay in Santa Teresa - its on the north side of town and across the street from a beautiful path to the beach. Juan was the best host and everything was so easy - especially due to the convenience of having one of the best cafes in town at the front of the property. We were so charmed by our time here, thank you Juan!
