Perfect Santa Teresa Beach Access

Although we’re not surfers this property is perfect for what Santa Teresa has to offer. The compound is a real oasis just a block from beach access. We had everything that we needed and plenty of room for two couples. Greg’s property manager was ill during our stay but Greg made a point of checking on our stay and helped us locate good local restaurants and pointed us in the right direction for yoga. The perfect way to end our Costa Rican vacation. Luna, the compound dog, is a real sweetheart.

Santa Teresa - great location & living space

Villa Papaya is an excellent location - only a few minutes walk to the beach and close to everything (restaurants, groceries, shops, ice cream, ...). We rented surfboards on our walk to the beach and enjoyed the great waves every day. Greg was an excellent host and the property care taker was available if we had any questions. The house itself is laid out very nice with the two bedrooms and two bathrooms to give our family of 4 plenty of space. Air conditioners in the bedrooms and main living space cooled the house quickly when we returned back to the house. Thank you Greg. We had an excellent stay and the kids loved Luna :) TJ

Comfortable and Convenient

Greg was incredibly helpful and welcoming. The villa was comfortable and conveniently located. Woke to singing birds and howling monkeys in the morning. Perfect.
