- Santa Teresa is one of the top travel destinations in the world in 2022. But why has it become so popular?
If you are like us, when you think about beach paradise you think about Bali, the Philippines or Sri Lanka. Some of our favorite travel influencers on Instagram went to Santa Teresa in Costa Rica and we had to check it out for ourselves.
Santa Teresa is on a remote peninsula of Costa Rica, getting there generally requires a long shuttle ride and ferry. But its well worth the journey.
We recommend

We used them both and they were great.
What once was a rustic oceanside village is now developing into a bustling town. With restraints, cafes, and great nightlife. Now, we agree that gentrification is often a bad thing, but we believe Santa Teresa is in a sweet spot right now. Developed enough to be comfortable, but not overly developed.
You are not only limited to Santa Teresa, with Monte Zouma just a quick ATV ride away, with amazing waterfalls and hikes to be explored.
We stayed in Griss Corner in Santa Teresa and it was AMAZING. We highly recommend this accommodation. www.grisscostarica.com/eng/cas...
So why is Santa Teresa so popular? Well, you'll need to watch the video to find out! Enjoy!

Amazing video! Convinced me to book the surf trip I’ve been thinking about!
This is what we like to hear!! Jealous!
Loved this video guys, great work
Thanks so much!
I like the narration from the both of you! Adds a bit of diversity to the video 🥥🌴
Really appreciate the kind words. We are working hard on improving our story telling!
Just came back from ST and it's honestly heaven on earth for me 🥰
This is a super cool video, thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼 a few questions - are you able to rent an ATV for days or a week at a time/do you remember the price? And if so how did you fill up gas.
Was it easy to find Montezuma waterfall using Waze? I know you said you got lost.
Thank you again! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great video watching from 🇯🇲🇯🇲
Ok. Fine Bicana, we will have to visit Jamaica next! Haha
I love surf towns!
I love it there. I miss it so much.
We are already trying to plan how we will get back!
Me too I loved CR and mostly Santa Tere & Puerto Viejo
Loving these peace of heaven called Costa Rica.
Genuinely heaven. Have you been before?
Sorry if I missed it in the video but which month were you guys there?
When is ur next video? 🥺
Hope you guys re doing fine by the way
Been long since you uploaded just checking up
Chloe is busy working on something amazing! Stay tuned!
beautiful! is there any sort of nightlife there?
Yes! Pretty good nightlife too!
Montezuma ❤
the best!
Did you guys rent a car to get there? Or not worth it and better to shuttle in and get an atv once your there? Also which hotels/hostels there do you recommend?
I love how you mention ST really personifies pura vida and then show a clip of a guy dropping in on you. Coincidence or subliminal messaging? :)
Hahaha we will leave that up to you
When is peak season?
December, January
Tulum or Santa Teresa ?
I've never been to Tulum!
great place I agree, maybe going off-season because it is too crowded, too noisy, too dusty, too expensive, too busy, and too much LOL totally overrated. The video is great though. Pura vida.
We actually want to try off season next time we go! Which month do you think is best?
@@ChloeKeleny I think June through October is the low season.
the next Tulum you mean
Why do you say that? Curious, I’ve never been to Tulum
It's so popular that NFL star Tom Brady has a house there...
Giselle was building her house here before she was dating Tom
Went there 20 years ago on honeymoon. Got robbed immediately after dropping our bags off where we were staying. Pretty sure the thieves were friends of the coke head guy we were renting from. They also robbed his ex-mother in law. Surf was good, but there’s nothing else to do there. Playa Hermosa es mejor!
Oh no! So sorry that happened to you guys. That’s horrible 🤦♀️
Okay. Time to drop your mics cuz holy heck your story telling plus filming has gone 💯💯
This means the world coming from
you!
Super over hyped area. its a super expensive mad house of a place. loud traffic..dirty and muddy. I cant take more than 3-4 days there at a time.
@@amremorse way worse than tamarindo. At least Tama has infrastructure.
@@amremorse WAY worse than 3 years ago...total zoo now.
Agree, been to Bali/Lombok 3 times and now wanted to try something else so went here instead… big mistake… insane prices, beach break with a alot of closeouts and big boards flying everywhere… dirty roads and loud traffic..
Renting a atv is like 80$/day, renting a motorbike in Indonesia is between 4-6$ a day, which cheaply lets you access waves of higher quality by better roads than they got in Santa Teresa… sorry Santa Teresa, you are not the new Bali/Indo
@@dc1674it is crazy how fast this place went from paradise to tourist trap so quickly. It’s sad
i just got back from santa teresa in may, it was not expensive, not sure what you call expensive, i also lived in canggu and tulum nd playa del carmen so i am familiar with tourist trap, this was my first time in santa teresa and it remind me of canggu of 6 years ago
Santa Theresa (and CR overall) has amazing nature, but zero value for what you pay. everything in Bali is SO much better. Food, housing, massages, transport, internet, plus you still get excellent nature.
How many hours away is Bali from miami
Lmao I ain't flying 18+ hours to have a better experience, which like everything else, is subjective. Costa Rica and for that matter Central America will do.
no its not totally sucks
santa teresa is more beautiful but its like 10000x boring than bali, it will never be the same
If any place in the world became popular, crowded, destroyed, etc. the only reason this happens, is because RUclipsrs 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
