I cannot say enough about this property. It is truly magical, and the fact that the owners share it makes the experience even more special.The location is incredible, just outside of town but feeling completely private, with beaches that are nearly empty. Out front there is a surf break with both a left and a right, and more great surf just down the beach. At high tide, it is perfect for a swim.Getting here was easy. Once Cody confirmed our dates, Lucy coordinated everything through WhatsApp. She arranged a small flight for us, roughly 1,800 to 2,000, which felt like a private aerial tour and was worth it. You can also take the ferry and have her arrange a car, or take a cab, which is very reasonable. Santa Teresa is worth the effort however you arrive. From the moment we landed, everything was handled seamlessly.The home itself is beautifully designed, minimalist with open ceilings that draw everything toward the ocean. There are hammocks under the trees, and you step right onto the beach. I have been to beaches all over the world, grew up in Hawaii, and live in Carmel, and there is something truly special about this one. Shell collecting, wildlife everywhere, monkeys, iguanas, birds, you are fully immersed in Costa Rica.What makes this place unforgettable is the experience. It feels more like being on a private cruise than staying in a home. The staff is incredibly caring, and you can feel the love from the ownership to Lucy to everyone on the property.
