1.Impossible to find from the first try: the point on google isn’t correct, the host knowing that problem doesn’t let you know about it in advance so we ended up cruising around hills It says on booking that it’s 800m walking to the beach - no way you can get there and back walking. It’s 10 min uphill by car
2.The next morning after booking a room for 5 nights, one hour before they start to check in we’ve received a message from the hotel saying that they’re fully booked for the next days and we only can stay there 2 nights. In booking tho you could still see rooms available for the next week
3.As well they asked to pay only in cash, to my question whether we can pay for the room by card at the hotel the answer was negative which to me looks quite sketchy being a hotel at $90/night.
4.we spent maybe 15 min trying to lock the door to the room in the night and ended up wasting 30 min in the morning trying to open it. As a result had to call the host and ask him to come rescue us. Ended up throwing the key out of the window to the host and after some minutes he was able to unlock the door from the outside
4.the leaving room/breakfast area which we saw on the photos is in reality a private owner’s area
5.pool hasn’t been cleaned in a long time. Most likely the filters are turned off (again, $90/night)
6.in the bathroom there’s no soap,shower gel etc We had a peace of a soap which had probably been left there by another guest No place to hang towels, no dryer. (yet again, $90/night)
7.we had bugs in our bed which I understand might be a normal thing in Costa Rica considering all the fauna but in 20 days of staying in different hotels/airbnb we have not seen this
8.It’s ridiculously overpriced for what it is. There are plenty of better places around for the same or...
Read moreI recently had the pleasure of staying at La Sana Surf Hotel in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica, and I can't say enough good things about this charming place!
First and foremost, the service at La Sana was exceptional. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. They were always friendly, attentive, and ready to assist with any request.
The view from the hotel was simply breathtaking. We woke up to the sight of the stunning Costa Rican coastline every morning, and it was a sight to behold. The sunsets were equally mesmerizing, and we couldn't get enough of them.
But what truly sets La Sana apart is its incredible people. From the warm and welcoming staff to the fellow guests we met during our stay, the sense of community and camaraderie was remarkable. It felt like a home away from home.
If you're looking for a place with great service, a beautiful view, and amazing people, La Sana Surf Hotel is the perfect choice. I can't wait to return to this little slice of paradise in Santa Teresa. Highly...
Read moreI loved this place! An epic peaceful jungle getaway! Delfina was great at communicating and even called me the day of check-in to make sure I had a smooth time arriving. She also went above and. Wound to make sure I had everything I needed during my stay. The pool lounge has cozy seating and a hammock for relaxed ocean views.
