Hotel Nantipa, an SLH Hotel

Our stay at Nantipa in Santa Teresa was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. The customer service and support were on another level—every detail was handled with such care and thoughtfulness, which made the entire experience feel seamless and luxurious. The hotel itself is stunning. Our upgraded beachfront room was high-end, beautifully designed, and came with top-tier amenities. From the delicious coffee in the room to the exceptional cleaning services and thoughtful turndown touches, everything felt intentional and elevated. What really stood out were the personal details that made us feel so well cared for: fresh coconut water upon check-in, staff who remembered and accommodated my allergies at every meal, and small surprises throughout our stay that made it feel truly special. The food at the hotel was absolutely delicious, and the beachfront location couldn’t be more perfect—just steps from the ocean while also being right in the heart of Santa Teresa, close to everything. Between the incredible service, the gorgeous facilities, and the unbeatable location, Nantipa exceeded all of our expectations. It’s easily one of the best hotel experiences we’ve ever had, and we can’t wait to return.

If you’re looking for the best hotel in Santa Teresa, this is the one. From the genuine warmth of the welcome to the high-quality rooms, gorgeous pool, delicious restaurant food, exceptional spa services and activities, every detail is thoughtfully taken care of. For those who might be a bit nervous about wild animals, this place is ideal. Rooms are well-secured and quite hermetic, yet if you’d like to enjoy the outside world, the sliding windows offer the perfect balance. I’ve stayed here for a week, and from day one, the staff has been incredibly helpful and responsive. If any small issue arises, they’re quick to resolve it with genuine care. Their attention and kindness truly made my stay something special. I’ve stayed here before, and I’ll definitely stay again. A heartfelt thank you to the wonderful staff and the general manager, not only for your thoughtful hospitality, but also for going out of your way to make sure my stay was unique.

Loved staying here and can’t wait to be back! One of the most comfortable hotel rooms, we slept so good. It was so fun walking to dinners along the beach and having drinks in the hammocks. Sunrise yoga was a plus. Lots of mosquitos in the garden bungalows and main pool so we couldn’t hang in those areas without getting tons of bites.

Hotel Nantipa is the place you want to stay at in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica!! For starters, we immediately got upgraded to the one of the Villas for free! (It was our honeymoon and my wife's birthday might be why, but we never got a specific reason). Location is always key and this was the best location. Beachside plus right off the main road in Santa Teresa. The service is what really brought it home for us. We have never received service like this anywhere in our lives! Anthony at the front desk showed us around and made us feel very comfortable right away. And Daniela with the concierge team was always checking in with us and was so helpful and responsive with literally everything we needed. The food at Manzu restaurant did not miss one time either. You cannot beat free breakfast on the beach each morning and the dinner menu had a bit of everything.

Had an amazing honeymoon at Hotel Nantipa. First of all the staff are outstanding. Jose, Rapha, and Salvador at the on site Manzu restaurant all provided outstanding service and made our experience around the hotel so fun! The food at Manzu was also excellent and we found the menu prices for food and drinks to be very reasonable. Ericka at reception went out of her way to send us a list of personalized restaurant recommendations. The concierge team service was impressive. You can easily communicate anything you need from them via WhatsApp during our stay. It made everything super easy and they always took care of anything we needed. We also checked out a few spa services during our stay. The deep tissue massage was intense but definitely effective. We also did a sound healing session in the yoga sala that was such a healing experience. Nantipa’s location is in the middle of town which we found perfect to get the resort experience but also were able to easily get off the property and explore Santa Teresa. They also have the best spot on the beach for viewing Santa Teresa’s amazing sunsets each night. We stayed in a Manti bungalow which was perfect. It provided our own zen spot to relax outside with privacy. The room was very clean and luxurious! The bathroom did get very warm at times but you are in hot Santa Teresa so there wasn’t much you could do about that! Overall, we loved our stay at Nantipa and will definitely be back!

We stayed at Nantipa during our honeymoon in March 2025, we were greeted with coconut water and given a tour of the hotel! We stayed in a Manti bungalow with private plunge pool - this was such a treat for our honeymoon! The staff were incredible friendly, one of the waiters in the restaurant taught us some spanish every morning at breakfast which was very fun! The breakfast was very delicious and the staff were very attentive! We also had dinner at the restaurant on our last evening, we made sure to cone for the bar menu as the dinner menu is pretty pricey compared to some of the surrounding restaurants. The facilities provided by the hotel on the beach were stunning - hammocks, bean bag chairs, sun loungers and 4 poster beds - very luxurious! The swimming pool was also beautiful and very clean! I took part in one of the complementary yoga classes which was a really beautiful way to start off a day in paradise! The beach is very clean and the sunsets are some of the best I have ever seen!! We had a perfect stay here and would love to visit again! Thank you for making our honeymoon unforgettable!!

Small botique luxury hotel surrounded by plenty of nature. The service is amazing and all the rooms are beautifully decorated and comfortable. Great hotel to bring kids to, the beach area is beautiful and there’s some tide pools close by as well. The pool is surrounded by nature and birds are flying around and tons of chameleons. Restaurant is very good, the clams are to die for, and the drinks are delicious as well. I loved the dolce gabana drink
