Skip, dusty, 10 minute dangerous drive to beach and town
Skip. The host listed the property as a 2 minute walk to the beach and it was a 10-12 min 4x4 drive challenge. Since we planned to be able to walk we checked out and asked for a refund. He has not done so to make the situation right. Santa Teresa has been taken over by tourists and developers and not your typical Costa Rica pura vida experience. The developers have given zero respect to the locals and it shows. The town is dirty and noisy with atv 4x4 quads everywhere. Not a town for families or young kids. To get to the home you traverse an unpaved uphill rocky dusty road that takes at least 10 minutes to drive. Not at all possible to walk it. Although we had 4x4 car, that is not enough and each time we felt like we were about to get a flat tire we felt it was too unsafe to continue to do this multiple times a day with our family so we checked out and only stayed 1 out of our 4 nights that is how bad it was. We went about an hour away to a much more peaceful Costa Rican resort. Additionally, this home we stayed in for one night was the only place in Costa Rica that did not recycle including the town. That should tell you something as well as a red flag that the developers do not care about preserving the beauty of Costa Rica or the culture of the locals that everyone dreams to experience in Costa Rica. The house itself was nice, but there is a new home build going up right in front of this home which blocks 75% of the view.
