Villas Santa Teresa

Villas Santa Teresa is just steps from the beach, with direct access to the sand. With only four villas, each with a full kitchen and a hammock porch, it’s one of the most relaxed stays in the area.

Who it suits

Couples, families and small groups of friends who want a quiet, self-catering base right by the sand. Three of the villas have two bedrooms, and you can book the whole place for a group.

Where it is

The villas sit just steps from Playa Santa Teresa, with direct beach access, under big sinsura trees. It’s common to spot monkeys, iguanas and birds in the branches.

What the villas are like

Every villa has a full kitchen and a porch with hammocks, so breakfast outside is part of the routine. Bathrooms have raised stone sinks and outdoor showers, perfect for rinsing off the beach under the sky.

The villas were built to green standards, with recycled blocks, clay-tile roofs that keep them naturally cool, and rainwater for the garden.

Accommodations

  • Two-bedroom villas (three): two with jungle and ocean views, one looking over the pool.
  • One-bedroom villa: with a living room and a pool view.

All villas have a fully equipped kitchen, a private bathroom with hot water, air conditioning and a porch with hammocks. Rent one villa or all four.

Pool and downtime

Several villas border the big pool, and the shady deck under the trees is a great spot for an afternoon with a book.
