The location was fairly quiet as there wasn't much road traffic going by. There was AC and the shower had hot water, which my wife loved. The kitchen was an ample size and had everything we needed; even Tupperware to keep our extra food so we didn't leave it in the pans. The rooms didn't feel cramped and had shelf space to put our things. The beds we're comfy and the towels were soft. The covered common area outside the kitchen was a great place to eat and for my wife to work. We would stay here again.

The most unexpected highlight of our visit was our stay at this fantastic workaway farm. The place is a wonderland of exquisite plants and wildlife. Our hosts were simply wonderful from the moment we arrived. The cabin blends into the landscape, with open windows on all sides. The sounds and scents of the farm just filled the air and made for a very cozy hideaway. The beds were comfy and the hammock on the balcony was a real bonus. We even had a pet dog for our visit! Workers on the farm are from all over the world and provided us with excellent company and conversation during the family-style dinner we all shared in the main house. Our hostess prepared easily the most delicious meals we had during our entire tour of Costa Rica. She even prepared banana flower, which is wonderful. Unfortunately, heavy rain prevented us from exploring the farm further. But the time we did spend there was very memorable. I wish we'd had more time to stay. Highly, highly recommended.

The people were great, easy to meet new people and the layout of little houses made it feel like there was lots of space and privacy at the same time. Loved seeing hummingbirds out the window all day. Great surf lessons organised by the hostel, which were also much cheaper than others in town. Easy walking distance to lots of food options and supermarkets and a 3 min walk to the beach. Well equipped kitchens, which would get cleaned everyday and the showers had warm water. I felt very safe and welcomed as a solo traveller.
I enjoyed my time at Surf Paradise so much that I extended my stay to a full month. The location was perfect, 2 minutes walk from the beach and close to a range of cafes and restaurants. The hostel itself felt safe and comfortable and had really chill vibes, plus the staff were lovely people who were great to hang out with. The rooms were basic but clean and had A/C. If I'm ever back in Santa Teresa I will book this place again without hesitation.
Great location! Spacious, safe and parking garage with gate.
the staff were a pleasure and very helpful always smiling and ready with knowledge to help.Your own room with a double bed for the price of a bunk bed in other hostels is a pleasure for budget travellers .l look forward to my return there one day soon l think
Amazing place! Staff extremely kind and available, they helped us with literally every needs. The hostel is at walking distance from everything and the area is super safe. The best option for the cheapest price in the area! It was a very pleasant surprise.
