Private Ocean Villa on Hilltop in Central ST
This bright and open home is just minutes away from the best restaurants and shops in Santa Teresa but feels a world away from anything. With breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean just beyond the private pool, you will find it hard to leave. This comfortable oasis has two bedrooms with king size beds and ensuite bathrooms and a sofa bed in the living room. The fully equipped kitchen will allow you to prepare all your meals and enjoy them on the stunning patio. Great for families or for friends. Pura vida!

It was even more beautiful than the online photos. Loved relaxing by the pool after a day by the beach. Stefanie was wonderful in showing us everything and helping us get last min surf lessons for the kids. Jairo was a great help assisting us when needed. We loved every minute and hope to return some day.

Great place for a getaway
Came to surf for 2 weeks. Beautiful place with unparalleled views. Close enough to walk to restaurants and beach, but far enough away from the Santa Theresa strip for some quiet and privacy. Highly recommend

Oasis on the hilltop
This property is fabulous. The construction and quality and layout of the home is wonderful. The view from uptop the mountain is exactly how it is shown. Stefanie the property manager was excellent providing information and lining up both our fishing excursion and our massause. Our masseuse was incredible. The trip up/down the mountain is interesting as are many of the roads in Santa Teresa and El carmen and you need a 4 wheel drive for sure. Once you get there it is well worth the drive.

Nice adventure
Nice adventure with a few hiccups. The online listing didn’t mention the ruggedness of the road getting to the property or the steepness of the driveway. I would recommend a 4 wheeler or buggy to get around. There were a couple of maintenance issues on the first night but the property manager was very responsive and quick to fix the issues. The property manager was easy to work with with many cool recommendations.The view and serenity is worth it if you are adventurous.
