"I traveled with my wife and two kids. The property is just in front of the beach and you are surrounded by jungle. The rooms are excellent, the staff is amazing and the food was delicious. It is very private and you can walk through amazing trails to nearby beaches. There is parking on site. Do consider driving a 4x4 so you can get all the way to the hotel as there is a short drive on sand before reaching the property. If not, no worries, you can leave your car in the hotel Sano Banano, and...

"This mavbe my most enjoyable stay ever in a hotel. I have never been in a hotel where absolutely everybody was so polite, friendly and engaed in creating a memorable experience for the guests. The owner of the hotel personally took me on an excursion which was so exciting and so thoughtful. All the team knew my name and tretaed me like a member of rheir famiy.
The hotel was well maintained, located on (and my room overlooked) a great beach and the food was perfect!
I will stay here again"

"El Sano Banano is a block from the beach and the little beachfront community. Everyone knows each other, they're outgoing, friendly, and extremely welcoming. Their menu is exceptional, their fresh fish dishes are to die for. I would come back here in a heartbeat"

"Rooms are very spacious, beds were super comfortable. It’s a 4-minute walk to the ocean. Breakfast was good not great, and the pool is small but awesome. People were great and helpful. Would definitely go back here."

"This is a beautiful hotel right on the beach! The service is wonderful, the beach is relaxing, and it’s nice and quiet. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend! The only small caveat is that it’s a bit far from town (about 10 min drive), and once in town, taxis can be hard to come by. This is just an FYI, that you have to plan accordingly. "

"Located on a superb beach. Welcoming staff always happy to accommodate (I had an upgrade to the dome huge room with the amazing ocean view for a very little extra fee). Breakfast was generous and delicious. Natalia the owner always smiling and helping… I will definitely go back to Casa Cecilia"

"Very unique beach front property with quaint bungalows, beach access, very nice pool, yoga studio and adjacent spa. The food at the beach front farm to table restaurant was excellent and all of the staff were very professional, kind, helpful and attentive. Loved the included breakfast and free yoga class. Close to other restaurants and stores in Santa Teresa. Great location, beautiful beach and amazing sunsets! Pura Vida!"

"Beautiful villas with the most beautiful view. The pool is magical, the patio areas the perfect place to look out on the ocean. The villas themselves are large and comfortable. Kitchens had everything we needed to make a meal. Highly recommend. "

"What a beautiful place! The view from our room was amazing, private view to the ocean. The room is super spacious, private and clean. One day I stayed in the hotel just to enjoy its beauty of the place.
Its on top of the hill, and the way up is quite steep, so for sure you need a car to get there and down."

"We had the room 401 with a very nice balcony and view on the sea. The king bed was awesome and we used the kitchen basics. Good coffee machine.
The pool was clean and ideal for hot days. The breakfast was delicious and efficient; shout out to the team!! Excellent job.
The beach is walking distance. I just wish the surroundings of the hotel was a little bit cleaner (dog poop on the sidewalks for example).
I enjoyed the free purified water machine, ice and coffee always available; best feature of all my hotels in Costa Rica.
Some light touch ups are required : the tile in the bathroom was broken and my son cut himself on it.
Overall, would recommend!!"

"We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel! The food was excellent, with every meal exceeding our expectations. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help, which made our experience even more enjoyable.
The rooms were beautiful, comfortable, and very well maintained, and the amenities were fantastic. Everything about the property made for a relaxing and memorable stay.
I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Montezuma or Santa Teresa area. Even if you’re not staying at the hotel, I strongly recommend stopping by for a meal—the food alone is worth the visit. Overall, a wonderful place that we would gladly return to!"

"My daughter and I planned a girls trip and we couldn’t have been happier. The staff, shoutout to Sebastian and Karla, could t have been more knowledgeable and helpful. Harry the GM gave us a lot of good suggestions for local spots. We went fishing and caught mahi mahi and yellow fin and Chef made us some amazing meals from that catch. Memories for a lifetime!"
