Villa Nof Yam  - Luxury Ocean View, Santa Teresa - Villas for Rent in Santa Teresa, Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica

As a family of five we had an amazing time. Kids didn't want to get out of the pool. We used the kitchen and grill a lot. House was so great you can spend the time there the entire day. A lot of care for details. Amazing place

Great location and beautiful home. Outdoor living space was great. Definitely recommend another stay.

The house is absolutely beautiful with incredible ocean views from many rooms. The team and the hosts were very attentive. Well done to the whole team.

La maison est absolument magnifique avec des vues incroyables sur l’océan depuis de nombreuses pièces. L’équipe et les hôtes ont été très attentionnés.Bravo à toute l’équipe.

Amazing place!! Gorgeous views and right in town. Tammar was very helpful with all our questions the entire stay. Santa Teresa is an incredibly fun place with gorgeous beaches, tons of activities, and amazing food.

What more can we say about our stay?  It was perfect. Perfect house, perfect view, perfect maintenance but mostly, perfect hosts. Tami and Ran were friendly, helpful, responsive and made our stay friction free. Can’t wait for our return!!

Very clean and beautiful home!! And very friendly and responsive host!! Highly recommend

A very spacious and entertaining space! Spent the week here with family and everyone had a lovely time. The bedrooms are very comfortable with sights from each room and the salt water pool is a huge plus! Highly recommend!

You can’t on find a better spot in the in Santa Teresa.  We will be returning every summer.   Location is central to everything we wanted to do and explore.

Our very favorite place we visited while in Costa Rica. Tammar's place was incredibly beautiful inside and out. We had to change our plans when something didn't work out in Montezuma and Tammar responded to our need for a place to stay with very little notice around 5pm for the night. In the midst of a intense thunderstorm, we had a bit of a hard time seeing signage of where to turn, but Tammar was incredibly responsive to help us find the place. I feel blessed to have gotten to stay in such a beautiful home. Book this place!!!

We loved our stay at Nof Yam and hope to come back!! Tami was always responsive and friendly. Highly recommend visiting- make sure to have a 4x4 to go up the hill to the house. We loved the daily housekeeping and felt very safe the entire time! Just book it!!

Tami’s place was incredible. The view was the magical and the service was the best we have ever experienced. The house was exactly as described and the town of Santa Teresa was a vibe. There is a large hill to get up to get to the house, so if you’re taking a car just make sure it’s able to get up the hill!

Our stay with Tami was truly magical. Villa Nof Yam is hands down the best Air BnB we have ever stayed at. We had a group of 6 and could have spent the entire time at the villa and been entertained. There are beautiful views, a salt water pool, grill, ping pong so much to do all while offering a peaceful backdrop. Bonus, its location in town near restaurants, bars and the beach. Will book again. Thanks Tami!

We stayed at this stunning home for my bachelorette party, and it was truly unforgettable! The views were absolutely insane—pictures don’t do it justice. The location is perfect—close to everything in town, but tucked up on a steep hill that gives you privacy and the most breathtaking scenery. Just a heads-up: you’ll definitely want to rent an ATV to get up and down the hill. Tami and her husband were the sweetest hosts. They were incredibly warm, helpful, and super responsive throughout our entire stay. They helped us coordinate everything we needed and made the whole experience seamless and special. Can’t recommend this place enough—already dreaming of going back!

We absolutely loved the villa. The space, the amenities and the cleaning service was amazing.

Villa Nof Yam is simply incredible....  Everything about it - the view, the location, the decor, the craftsmanship, the service, and the overall ease of use.  We had an unbelievable vacation.  Tami is wonderful; and so are the various staff that seamlessly keep the home beautiful.  I highly recommend Villa Nof Yam - and, more broadly, Santa Teresa is a magical place that combines surfer chic, terrific restaurants, friendly people, with an enchanting and refreshing lack of overt rules.  I would highly recommend getting a couple ATVs during your stay as they are the preferred method of getting around Santa Teresa and other locales.

Amazing home with spectacular views. Home was spotless and had everything we needed.

Thank you so much for having us we had the best time and would love to come back. Everything was excellent

Nof Yam is one of the most peaceful homes I have stayed at! It comfortably fit 7 of us, was impeccably clean, perfectly situated close to restaurants and stores, and the views were breathtaking. The home is on a steep hill but still accessible by ATV or car. One thing to note is that this home does not have a dishwasher, but the housekeeper was such a huge help with this. The housekeeper & maintenance/security staff were highlights for us well. They were extremely kind, patient, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Tami was also very responsive to any requests we had. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Can’t say enough about how wonderful our stay at Nof Yam was!  The outdoor set up is amazing as well as the views and sunsets.  We are a family of 5 and had more than enough space in the house.   Tami was very responsive to any questions and Melvin and Mareya (housekeepers) were very helpful.   The hill up to the house was steep but we were able to walk it.   However, I do recommend renting the Mula Tami offers.   The location in Santa Theresa is ideal as it is very easy to get to the restaurants, shops and beach!!  Highly recommend Nof Yam!!

Beautiful house with amazing view. Rooms are spacious, and everything is just perfect.

I can’t say enough good things about Tami and Ran’s house. It was so beautiful in every respect and comfortable! They provided every amenity and were very friendly and always there if we needed recommendations or anything. We felt very safe and the people that they had doing things around the house were so helpful and friendly also. It was so nice to have someone come in and tidy up after us every day and do our laundry! The view was stunning of the ocean and sunsets. It was so cool to have the jungle right there also. You got the best of both worlds! We even saw a monkey right by the house. The swimming pool and outdoor area was amazing. It was truly a dream vacation and we plan on coming back many times!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful home! The house is truly stunning, with breathtaking views and an outdoor space that feels like a retreat. The staff made our stay even more enjoyable, cleaning the house daily and taking care of the outdoor area, including opening and closing the awnings. The host was sweet and ensured that everything was perfect for us. Just a few things to note: the house is located on a very steep mountain. At first, we were a bit shocked by the hike, but we got used to it. Even our three young children managed to hike up and down it. it takes about 5 minutes to walk down to the main road and about 8 minutes to walk up. There’s no washer and dryer for guests, however the housekeeper took care of our laundry, which was a great help. Like many places in Santa Teresa, there are quite a few bugs, but the host provided effective bug spray. The only minor downside was that there weren’t many towels. Overall, this place is true gem, and we would return in a heartbe

We had an amazingly stay at the Villa. The views were incredible and the house was exactly like the pictures. We stayed with 3 kids and they absolutely loved the pool!! Tami was so friendly and welcomed us when we got there. Would most definitely stay there again!

Happy with our stay, staff very courteous and helpful

We were very pleased with the entire experience of Villa Nof Yam. Tami was the best host we have ever had with Airbnb. She was extremely accessible and very responsive in all aspects. Her attention to detail was unmatched. She arranged our transportation to and from Santa Teresa; as well as assisted us with recommendations on our travel through Costa Rica. Villa Nof Yam was a breathtaking beautiful villa with stunning views of the ocean. The entire experience was fantastic from Tami and friendly staff; we definitely would recommend and would stay at Villa Nof Yam again.

Breathtaking home in a beautiful setting with amazing views. Everything was beyond our expectations and Tami is the most gracious, helpful host. 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️

everything is very good , the place and the house too , well attended by Tami always to order , thank you

todo muy bien , muy bonito el lugar y la casa tambien , bien atendidos por Tami siempre a la orden , gracias

All was great!! Exactly as described!! We will be back!!

best trip ever! tami and ran have such an amazing home, make every effort to make you feel welcomed and taken care of. we love this place so much!

the home is beautiful, peaceful, and an architectural gem! it sits a top a steep hill with the perfect view of the sandy beach below to enjoy daily out of this world sunsets. that said, the best thing about this home are tami and ran. the loveliest of hosts! ready to make you feel right at home, extremely responsive, and willing to help out and coordinate endless activities and answer questions. thank you thank you! we will be back a thousand times again.

Awesome place!  Loved it and Tami was great

Incredible experience. Host was wonderful, probably the best location in Santa Teresa. Couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you so much.

We had an incredible week at Tami’s charming ‘Villa Nof Fam’ in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica! The warmth of the house mirrored Tami’s hospitality, making our family feel right at home. The thoughtful touches, breathtaking views, and proximity to the beach made our stay unforgettable. Grateful for this memorable experience – our hearts are full of gratitude!

Villa Nof Yam is amazing! The views are unbelievable, the villa is gorgeous and immaculate, the daily housekeeping service was a huge bonus, and Tami was there to quickly answer any questions we had. The outdoor space is an absolute 10. Tami arranged a fantastic boat excursion for us and had many helpful dinner recs. We highly recommend!!

Absolutely stunning views, the place was the perfect size .  Extremely well maintained and they took care of anything you needed.  Highly recommend it

I've stayed in 48 AirBnbs over the years, some on beaches, some in woods, some in cities. Always after lots of research so I'm picking 5 star places. This was easily in the top 5 AirBnb experiences of my life. The views are stunning, the house is very well done, lots of space, every bedroom feels almost like a master bedroom, plenty of room outside to relax, exercise, or anything. Our in house private chef was incredibly nice, flexible with dining options, worked around our schedule, and cooked beautifully and tastefully. Super recommended.

This was by far our best experience through AirBnB, EVER! Tami and the crew at Villa Nof Yam, took care of every detail at a 5-star level. The team genuinely did everything they could to ensure we were comfortable, taken care of, and able to take full advantage of the amazing location and activities they're perfect villa affords. Will be back for sure, and couldn't recommend any other place before this one! Thank you Tami, Ran, and the crew!

This was one of the most beautiful places I've ever stayed, and I've stayed in a lot of Airbnbs.  It's a perfect home in an exquisite location.  The views are amazing, it's incredibly private, the bedrooms and bathrooms are spa-like, the kitchen was stellar, the pool and deck areas are idyllic.  The team that cleans (including laundry!) and maintains the house are friendly, helpful and stay out of the way.  It is a bit of a challenge to get to -- especially if you are driving from Liberia -- but worth every effort.  Hosts were super responsive and helpful.  8 people could stay here easily and comfortably.  Will hope to stay again.

Villa Nof Yam exceeded all of our expectations.  Tami and Ran were phenomenal.  Incredibly helpful and responsive.  Our housekeeper was amazing, very sweet and did a great job.    The location is perfect, but make sure to rent a quad or Mula, as the hill is very steep.   Restaurant recommendations by Tami and Ran were spot on.  This was a dream vacation.

I mean it when I say this house is perfect! Gorgeous views, modern, clean, beautiful and all the amenities and concierge services were top notch. (Professional chef for private dining at house, massage, vehicle rental, etc). The house is so great, I almost don’t anyone else to know about it! We will be back for sure and Tami as a gem.

This absolutely was a beautiful home. It looked even better then the pictures. My friends and I DID NOT want to leave at all. We will be staying here again when we return to Santa Theresa. This was definitely an unforgettable birthday trip. Tami and her husband were beautiful hosts and always were so responsive when we had questions.

We were a group of four adults and 4 kids - ages 13-9 who stayed at Nof Yam in May 2023. The place was spotless and absolutely beautiful. There was daily house keeping far exceeded our expectations, our laundry was done daily and returned to us the same day. We all agreed we could have packed way less if we had realized this service was so efficient. Tami and Ran organized our shuttle to and from Tambour airport so finding the house was not an issue. The drivers were nothing but friendly, helpful, and professional. We were allowed to store our luggage at the house prior to check-in and after check-out which was very helpful. Ran was very helpful and he set us up with dinner suggestions, a day trip, fishing, Mulas - he really made things very easy for us. The house is on a steep hill that would make walking difficult for some. The kitchen was well equipped but not with seasonings, foil etc. Anything we asked for was taken care of easily. Beautiful place, amazing location!!

A Wonderful House atop the Mountain in front of the Beaches, you look at the whole Playa Santa Teresa on the right and Playa Carmen on the left, it is somewhat impressive and you can also hear the waves of the Sea. The location is strategic, going down 400 meters you reach the main street right in front of the Italian restaurant soon in whose shopping center there is a pharmacy as well, 300 meters right is Casa del Mar restaurant, 500 meters left are Katana (Asian) and Amici (Italian), and about 500 meters plus the Megasuper Supermarket and The Bakery. The 4 rooms have sea views, the whole house has a sea view, it's an awesome place. Tidy, clean, well thought out architecture. The hosts are very friendly, the cleaning service is impeccable both inside and outside the house. 100 of 100 points, this House and its hosts

Everything was absolutely perfect. The communication was easy and helpful. The house was stunning, beautiful, comfortable and clean. The beds and pillows were all comfy and smelled so good. The inside and outside furniture were top quality. Its was safe and super zen. I will come back amd I will definitely recommand TY

The house is so beautiful and just as it looks in the picture! Our group of girlfriends found that it was the perfect getaway house with restaurants and shops just below us. We actually walked up and down the hill each day and it was fine for us. Tami was very helpful in assisting us with transportation and activities.

Tami was a wonderful host. She was always helpful and responsive - great yoga and restaurant recs,  The home is a beautiful aerie perched over the town with breath taking views of Santa Teresa.  I highly recommend Villa Nof Yam!

It‘s a beautiful house with nice personnel and a very responsive host. It was all around a very relaxing and beautiful stay at the house and it‘s definitely one (if not the) most beautiful and modern place in santa teresa. The only negative thing to mention is that it‘s not easy to find the location, because there is no clear adress and the instructions didn‘t help us that much. We had to carry our heavy luggage up the whole mountain in the heat of 32°C. The rest was superb!

In Santa Teresa there are no street names so the location of the house is only by describing the area.  The area is very central above the banana beach and a five minute walk from the main road.  You can find the exact location on Google Maps and of course on Airbnb.  Of course, it is better to arrive with a shuttle to the house, especially those who are with luggage.  Thanks and see you next time

Nof Yam was an experience of a lifetime for me and my 3 children plus their partners so 7 of us in a home right out of Architectural Digest. The home itself sits atop a hill overlooking the ocean. A short drive downtown and to the beach and a 10 minute walk. The road up is steep but definitely easily walkable. The exterior has so many sitting and relaxation areas as well as a large gathering area. We grilled on the outdoor grill and also cooked in the gorgeous well equipped kitchen. The home surpassed all of our expectations.

Fantastic spot in Santa Teresa. Will definitely return

Tami and Ron were very accommodating and were the best hosts I’ve ever had on Airbnb. Villa Nof Yam exceeded our expectations by a long shot and I wouldn’t recommend anywhere else. Make sure you rent an ATV during the stay as getting up and down that hill by foot might get annoying! All the best :)

Wow, great house, great service, great location, can’t say enough positive things about this rental, but here’s my quick write up. The house is amazing, super clean and cleaned daily by staff. Daily laundry service also fantastic. Loved the pool and the view…I will never forget that view, unbelievable to wake up to and watch sunsets from the deck.. The staff is fantastic and always ready and willing to help. They provided clean pool towels and beach towels on request, left sliced fruit on several occasions and all was great as we were at the beach swimming or surfing daily and liked coming home to a ready snack. They even gave our car a jump when we left the light on overnight. The home provides easy access to everything in Santa Teresa. The Santa Teresa beach is a 2 min drive (or walkable but the hill is a lot for most), Hermosa beach is a 15 min drive. Tons of great restaurants in the area. Our favorites were Uma, Katana and El Corazon. The town is safe and very friendly, but was great to have a security guard over nights with the family there. All in all, I can’t recommend this home or location and higher, it’s great!

It was amazing, Tami is awesome and goes above & beyond . The amenities are well thought and the home is beautiful to say the least! Private, spacious and the cherry on top was the view ! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beautiful home, the house is exactly like in the pictures with an amazing view. The hosts were great and very accomodating. We enjoyed our time in Santa Teresa

Beautiful house. Tasteful interior. Spectacular view. Hotel-like experience. High quality in everything related to the house and services. Warm welcome and responsive host. We will be back. Thank you for everything!

We had a trip to ST planned months ahead. As I boarded the plane, my host cancelled on me and a second one denied my stay. Tami went above and beyond to help me secure this villa hours before arriving. It turned out to be the best trip of my life. Because I had previous arrangements with the other host, it was a scramble to try and recoordinate everything last minute but Tami and Her team got it done. They are absolutely fabulous. I cried when I left because it will truly be unforgettable.

Travelers this is the spot to be. The unexpected inclusions when we arrived made us feel so exclusive. The property has its over vibe, maid service, early morning pool set up. Things we didn’t even know we needed! I’d book this property in a heartbeat. The house is handicap accessible and also accommodating all 10 ladies in the group!

Awesome experience! Exactly what we were expecting from a luxury villa. Highly recommended, Tami was an outstanding host.

Villa Nof Yam was absolutely the most beautiful place!!! The Villa has the best views. We used the pool almost everyday and watched the monkeys almost every morning.  The staff was so helpful and friendly.  Thanks to Tami we had a atv ready to rent and a driver(Julio)  to pick us up and take us back. She also scheduled for us to get a massage at the house and a private chef. Which was so delicious!!! When we come back to Santa Teresa we hope to stay here again!!! Thank you!!!

Such an amazing stay in this beautiful Villa! Tami was an incredible host and they were beyond accommodating! Highly recommend this stay!

Great place to stay, amazing views, very modern and comfortable home Host was very helpful and yoga teacher !!
