Nautilus Surf & Yoga Villas Santa Teresa

My daughter and I had an excellent stay at Nautilus. The staff were very friendly and helped us with everything we needed. We loved that the place has it’s own yoga deck, where we enjoyed yoga and a moon tribe gathering under the full moon. We also liked the small pool, the hammock ouside our villa, and the closeness to one of the most popular restaurants; Eat Street! It is also a calm neighbourhood, and close to the beach. There is a free parking outside, and a kitchenette. Very convenient. We felt safe and taken good care of. Can definetely recommend this place!

Money was stolen out of my bag while cleaners were in my villa twice. Please use the safe and video tape locking your valuables as evidence.

Money stolen out of my room on twice. The second time was 100% verified. Hand counted the money before the cleaners entered the villa and hand counted after they left. 180.00 stolen. Remember to use the locking safe and video tape the belongings you are locking in the safe.

We stayed in casita no.1 and we are located next to the street and the front door to the hotel. The noise is the issue coming from with 4wheeler ATV and pick-up trucks constantly zig zagging and making a carnage of noise on the street adjacent to our bedroom from what a what peaceful setting this could have been! The other HUGE issue is the front door of the hotel LOUD SLAMMING from morning to late evening. We couldn’t use the hamac for relaxation as there’s no escaping the loudness banging as we are 10feet from door and road. The DOGS ´BARKING & HOWLING will drive you insane troughout the nite and early morning The DUST from the road makes it’s way into our casita no.1 This was an ordeal …. We asked to be moved but we’re told that they were full but I noticed new arrivals constantly. Otherwise…. In the other casitas , I’m sure it is better…. Loved the staff… the pool and proximity of everything around. Pura Vida ! Maybe not at casita no.1

The property is unmanaged, the owners have placed international student volunteers to mind their business for exchange of housing. They are pleasant but that does not replace professional and trained staff. At the end of the day, the guest is cheated service. Sad, sad.

Great place and great value. My recommendation for sure.
