AKWA units have a beautiful view of the ocean and all you can hear is the wonderful sound of the surf rather than the traffic of Santa Teresa.

This was an amazing boutique hotel located in Santa Teresa. The staff were phenomenal and super helpful. The room was spacious and super clean, with an extremely comfy bed, and very eco friendly! The pool was fantastic, and even though it was shared it really felt like a private pool as most rooms had their own. The view from the pool was amazing as well! The breakfast every morning was great. The hotel is up a very steep hill, so I would be prepared to do a hike uphill if you don’t have a vehicle. The hotel as well is a short walk to many bars and restaurants, including some great beach front spots! Overall would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Santa Teresa!

Leider hat es bei unserem Aufenthalt geschüttet und die Strasse durch Santa Teresa war wirklich unmöglich. Die auffahrt zum Hotel ist sehr steil und womöglich nur mit einem 4x4 zu bewältigen. Wir waren zunächst die einzigen Gäste und haben uns wohl gefühlt und Alex hat uns sehr geholfen auch ein Ticket für die Fähre zu buchen. Unser Zimmer war OK und das Bett bequem. Es gibt kein TV aber gutes Internet und das Frühstück wird nach seinen Wünschen hergerichtet. Vielen Dank an Alex und dem Team!
