It is so easy to love Santa Teresa Beach, but do you know why people do?
Have you not been to Santa Teresa Beach yet? Well, here is a list of 14 reasons to love Santa Teresa Beach, and why you should choose The Nicoya Peninsula to purchase a beach home or beach property in Costa Rica.
Santa Teresa Beach is located in the middle of two small villages, Mal Pais in the south and Playa Hermosa in the north. They connect with each other by one, long winding road, just behind the beach. When visitors say they love Santa Teresa Beach, they really also talk about Mal Pais, Playa Hermosa, and Playa Carmen. That’s because it’s hard to tell when one stops and the other starts.
These are all REAL comments found on forums, TripAdvisor and in emails from clients. These comments will give a good idea why we all love Santa Teresa Beach:
1. Amazing Location
- Traveled with family–adult children. Amazing location, amazing surf, and quiet remote beach…very tropical.
- Lots of access points to beach from the main road in Santa Teresa. Very few vendors. No peddlers, so you need to bring your own umbrellas, chairs, food, toys, etc. A wonderful place.
- Great location to get away from the noise, go for long walks, practice yoga and surf, yet a short drive from Playa Hermosa and Playa Carmen.
- It’s hard to get here, but once you arrived you don’t want to leave anymore.
