    lovely pool
    tropical gardens
    firm mattress

    I really enjoyed my time relaxing by the lovely pool and enjoying the beautiful tropical gardens. The vibe was so laid-back, with plenty of cozy spots to kick back and unwind. Just a heads up, the mattress was a bit firmer than I like, so keep that in mind if you're picky about beds! 😊

    heavenly salmon
    cozy retreat
    outdoor dining
    stair workout
    heavy luggage hassle

    The salmon at Soda Tiquicia was out of this world! Steps from the beach, the outdoor dining area made for the perfect sunset experience. The apartment was a cozy retreat with a well-equipped kitchen for breakfast fits for champions.

    Not gonna lie, there are a few stairs to tackle if you're on the upper floors.

    clean accommodation
    close grocery
    snorkeling area
    lack kid activities

    We stayed here with our kids and loved the vibrant area popular for snorkeling. The cleanliness was impressive, with the staff maintaining a high standard every day. The two-minute walk to a grocery store and local dining made our meals super easy.

    My children wanted more activities for young ones.

    kitchen facility

    Just a smart choice for resting at all in Playa Santa Teresa with value for money. The kitchen in our apartment was super handy for making quick meals for our family. Avoid the top floor if you're not a fan of climbing stairs.

    outdoor swimming pool
    responsive staff

    Nice place with amenities like outdoor swimming pool, air conditioning, and wi-fi. I still remember when the staff helped me find my lost wallet. Plus, they were always very responsive. I'll definitely be back for a business trip.

    spacious apartment
    helpful owner
    snorkeling area
    navigational challenges

    The area is perfect for snorkeling with kids! Our two-bedroom apartment was a spacious gem, complete with a fridge to prepare snacks for the little ones. Valentina's helpfulness made everything easier, from transport to the best surf instructor nearby.

    My wife says that some areas were tricky to navigate with strollers.

    helpful staff
    excellent pool
    local restaurants
    rooster noise

    Had a great time with friends! The staff was super helpful, and the pool area was perfect for relaxing. We loved exploring the local restaurants, especially the one nearby that serves fantastic local dishes. A short walk took us to both the beach and some excellent snorkeling spots.

    However, I found the noise from the roosters nearby a bit disruptive, especially early in the morning.

    hot water
    cozy atmosphere
    steep stairs
    limited parking

    We had a Deluxe Double Room for 2 nights and it felt so cozy! The room was bright and clean, with hot water and AC, which was perfect after a long day at the beach. The only downside was the climb to the second floor, but the view was worth it. Overall, a comfy spot for a chill getaway!

    pristine pool
    clean property
    stairs access

    great stay but some minor issues

    The owner was incredibly helpful and organized our transportation with ease. The cleanliness of the property was exceptional, with daily dusting and mopping. Plus, the pool area was pristine and enjoyable, offering a lovely view of the well-maintained garden. We especially appreciated the proximity to a grocery store and local dining options, making it easy for us to explore flavors of the area.

    However, there are several stairs to navigate if you're staying on the upper floors.

    clean apartment
    inviting pool
    inconsistent wi-fi
    limited kitchen utensils
    distance from main attractions

    The one-bedroom apartment provided a private experience with excellent cleanliness. the daily cleaning service kept everything spotless. Just a short walk to the beach enhanced convenience, and the inviting pool area offered a relaxing retreat. While the connection to Wi-Fi was inconsistent, it didn't overshadow the overall positive environment. The nearby local restaurant served delicious local dishes, making meals a delightful highlight during the stay.
