Bienvenido a Santa Teresa: Welcome
To discover why Casa Teresa is a preeminent travel spot is to fall in love with Santa Teresa itself. Once a quaint fishing town that thrived off the bounty of the ocean, Santa Teresa has since branched from these humble beginnings to become a premier surfing-turned-luxury destination that offers sun-kissed, warm hospitality along with some of the best seafood you’ll ever taste.
Do It All (Or Nothing at All!) In Style
Santa Teresa is for lovers.
It’s for the foodies who love artisanally crafted meals and drinks with the best local ingredients, seeking new adventures with every bite.
It’s for the ones who love to treat themselves to some quality self-care.
Santa Teresa is for nature lovers who seek the thrill of outdoor adventure of all kinds, and among all kinds of wildlife.
And, of course, Santa Teresa is for lovers of love: from unforgettable elopements and honeymoons to “just because” trips to rekindle and reconnect, romance blooms here like our vibrant rainforest flowers.
No matter how you’d love to travel and who you love traveling with, Santa Teresa eagerly awaits your one-of-a-kind trip to a destination like no other.
Enjoy Fine Cuisine in Santa Teresa
The opportunity to experience a unique, luxurious getaway begins at Casa Teresa and extends to the neighboring locale of Santa Teresa. There are numerous establishments that transform Costa Rica’s ripe harvests from its land and sea into local Costa Rican specialties and international delicacies. Whatever fresh, indulgent, and nourishing foods and guilty pleasures you crave, Santa Teresa is ready to cater its world-famous hospitality to you.
Pura Vida Hospitality Awaits
There is a reason why Costa Rica is synonymous with the phrase “La pura vida.” Literally meaning “the pure life” in Spanish, this expression is about taking an approach to life that focuses on taking your time to appreciate the finer things in life.
Those finer things include how to take in those small, simple moments of joy, in the moment, like sharing a cup of locally grown coffee paired with a majestic ocean view and tropical fruits, a leisurely siesta after a sunrise hike, or dancing the night away under the stars.
