Blooma Boutique Hotel & Kosher Restaurant
10 (23 reviews)

Blooma Boutique Hotel & Kosher Restaurant ★★★★

📍 JRHX+FC, Carmen

"The best hotel experience we had in a very long time. We were welcomed with complementary house cocktails upon checking in ( we also got an early check-in with no charge ) Everything is a brand new with top of the line facility and super thoughtful service. The pool in the Jacuzzi were great, the breakfast was super good and the cocktails are all handcrafted and very tasteful. They even have an elevator which I personally never saw in any hotel in Santa Teresa before. The room was very cozy with high ceilings and a nice balcony facing the pool , super comfortable king size bed, and very spacious shower and bathroom space. The Concierge helped us book a four wheeler rental, surfing lesson, and even a flight from Santa Teresa to San Jose. Very good experience in all aspects and we definitely coming back. Thank you for making our stay so special ❤️"

Nautilus Surf & Yoga Villas Santa Teresa ★★★

📍 100 meters east of Selena Hostel Puntarenas Santa Teresa de, Carmen

"We stayed in casita no.1 and we are located next to the street and the front door to the hotel. The noise is the issue coming from with 4wheeler ATV and pick-up trucks constantly zig zagging and making a carnage of noise on the street adjacent to our bedroom from what a what peaceful setting this could have been! The other HUGE issue is the front door of the hotel LOUD SLAMMING from morning to late evening. We couldn’t use the hamac for relaxation as there’s no escaping the loudness banging as we are 10feet from door and road. The DOGS ´BARKING & HOWLING will drive you insane troughout the nite and early morning The DUST from the road makes it’s way into our casita no.1 This was an ordeal …. We asked to be moved but we’re told that they were full but I noticed new arrivals constantly. Otherwise…. In the other casitas , I’m sure it is better…. Loved the staff… the pool and proximity of everything around. Pura Vida ! Maybe not at casita no.1"

Banana Beach Bungalows ★★★

📍 Banana Beach, 1km north of the crossroads at the entrance of town, Puntarenas Province, Santa Teresa, Carmen

"The room is very simple, quite sadly furnished and dirty. The general assistance is quite poor due to the limited. Be carefull to organize activities with them cause they will charge you more money just to keep something for themselves. The Banana Beach Club is very bad. The worst drinks I had in all Costa Rica. Staff very improfessional!!!!"

Casa Marbella

"Casa Marbella is a small paradise. The swimming pool at the out of the room, a sea view with a breathtaking breath, a modern deco and at the same time suitable for the location. When you arrive on the place, you stop a few seconds to admire the location. The hotel is very well placed and then you can The hotel is located in the city centre and is located in the city centre. I hope that I can go back to that in the future."

Hotel Nantipa - A Tico Beach Experience ★★★★★
"I had a very disappointing experience at Nantipa due to their confusing and inconsistent visitor/guest policies. The rules were not clearly explained at check-in, and nowhere in the paperwork did it clearly state that you cannot have different visitors come to your room. The only thing mentioned was room capacity, which is not the same as saying no visitors are allowed. What made it worse was the night staff. They were rude, confusing, and made the situation unnecessarily uncomfortable. Instead of calmly explaining the policy, they acted accusatory and unprofessional. To make matters worse, different staff members gave different answers, and it was clear the team is not on the same page. This created stress during what should have been a relaxing stay. For the price and reputation, this level of communication and hospitality is unacceptable. I would not stay here again. I suggest if your social at all do not stay here because even if you just bring back one person and the other person is no longer staying in your room, they will be mean about it Also, I’ve never heard of a hotel where you can’t bring someone too, especially if it’s just for a night not even using the facilities They also claimed it was an insurance policy, which also doesn’t make sense because I’ve literally seen other people that are not staying at the hotel come into the hotel and use the actual facilities like the pool In addition, I never even signed the document that explains this so I don’t know how that’s even enforceable again. It only says about capacity not that you can’t change the people out at all. There’s also no manager at staff on night so that was very difficult because the girl at the front desk explained it a lot different than the manager did in the morning and they had conflicting reasons why so that doesn’t make sense"

Ventura Santa Teresa ★★★
"This hotel generally gets good reviews but we were surprised and underwhelmed. Our biggest concern was the size - the rooms are very small, almost uncomfortable. It felt like we were staying in a college dorm room. It was very tight for two people, and certainly not romantic or comfortable for a couple’s stay. We did not enjoy sleeping in a bunk bed. With that said, the room was new, clean and had everything we needed. There’s also a restaurant on-site and a tiny pool. It’s basically like a hostel. Heads-up that’s its on the southern end of Santa Teresa and we felt a bit isolated. I might recommend looking for a place about a mile/km north, more towards the center. But there is a grocery store right across the street, and also laundry and a few coffee shops. It’s nice that this hotel is new, but again the rooms are very small and uncomfortable. I imagine it’s hard to find luxurious places in this small beach town without paying a fortune. If you’re looking for something nice, I would probably avoid Santa Teresa altogether."

Horizon Hotel & Yoga Center ★★★★
"My 8th visit to CR and 3rd to Santa Teresa. I came to Horizon to restore and reset after a long tough time recovering from a difficult family loss. My main objective has been to kickstart my wellness routine after a year and a half of being out of synch - exercise, healthy living, kind people with good vibes, fresh food prepared with love, surf, hike and priceless sunrises and sunsets. So far, I have found all of that at Horizon. Horizon is a quaint and charming mountain retreat, located a short walk up the mountain side of town. A trail interconnects all of the various element of this boutique resort. Gali and Yuav offer the perfect balance of being available while also maintaining privacy. There has not been a request that I have made that hasn’t been met in a very timely manner. Yuav is the best kept secret in ST - a true Renaissance man. I’m 100% straight, by the way. Yuav is a 5 star chef, while also maintaining a demanding resort management role. Did I mention that he is also a top notch yoga instructor? He also maintains many hobbies that most would find very interesting. I would be very surprised if there was a request made by a guest that he could not, or would not, satisfy. Gali is hands on and doesn’t miss much. She truly loves and breaths this hospitality experience. A few points of note: - If you are looking for a chain hotel, Horizon is not for you. You will not find staff that went to a brand name HRIM college or University. Frankly, you will find better here. - If you don’t like the charm of an old bohemian town that has evolved quite a bit since my first visit 30 years ago, this is not for you. - Costa Rica has evolved and is now a town that is represented globally. Not everyone here is a Tica. There are many cultures represented in ST, and the language and cultural shifts can create a disappointment if you’re not able to communicate properly. This is okay, in my opinion, by the way, as the food options here are more diverse and authentic than any big city in America, while still maintaining that beach side bohemian charm. Just be sure to choose your body language and words wisely as there can be a risk of gross misinterpretation and/or losing a friendship over same. - This is Costa Rica. The first thing I do when I arrive is obtain an ATV for my entire stay. Taxis are available and the drivers are super friendly and informative. But if you are a slave to taxis and walking everywhere, you may miss out on some of the charm and experiences. Full disclosure - I grew up on horses, dirt bikes and ATVs. I have been all over the world and have stayed at top 20 rated resorts in many countries, but Horizon is right there with the best of them. The website doesn’t nearly do justice to this place."

Zula Inn Aparthotel ★★
"The hotel is far below the description advertised. The pool is dirty, the room has very and old furnitures, rust was on toilet and kitchen. The surrounding area is not nice either. It was clear a misadvertisment and we had to find a replacement hotel. We definitely recommend NOT to go unless you are prepared for something really different from what you see."
