About this property

Hotel Santa Teresa is a modern, and ecologically-conscious boutique hotel that provides a truly unique beach experience. The hotel was fully renovated in 2023 including common areas, room interiors and bathrooms. The hotel is centrally located and only fifty yards from Playa Carmen in the middle of the natural beauty and excitement of Santa Teresa. Our hotel offers a comfortable environment and among the amenities are a swimming pool, Costa Rican breakfast, fiber optic Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception, modern air conditioners, in-room espresso and refrigerator, and a digital internet-ready television with a wide variety of channels. We are proud to include in your room rate a full-service Costa Rican-style breakfast that offers a fresh fruit bar (brought daily from the country's central mountains) and a breakfast plate served to your table with eggs prepared to order, Gallo Pinto (rice and beans), fresh white cheese and exquisite breads. In the room you will find high quality cotton sheets and duvets, oversized pillows, top quality towels and toiletries. We offer a variety of rooms with views of the ocean or the central courtyard with large balconies. All beds are Queen or King size. We are proud to announce the grand opening of the ESSENTTIAL Spa at the hotel. There you will find all the beauty treatments and massages that you would expect from an internationally rated facility. The hotel is part of a mixed-use project that offers many services such as a bank, pharmacy, and fine clothing boutiques. There is an upscale supermarket close to the hotel. Playa Carmen and the surrounding areas offer a variety of activities including year-round surfing, ATV tours, yoga, ziplining, horseback riding on the beach, and day tours including the Montezuma waterfalls, Isla Tortuga and the nearby Cabo Blanco National park which offers outstanding nature walks. Our front desk can help you organize tours and activities during your stay.
