We got great value for our money at Pura Vida Mini Hostel. The room was clean and tidy, and the location couldn't have been better. The staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome throughout our stay.

The location of the hostel was great, with easy access to nearby attractions and the beach. The common areas were vibrant and offered a fun atmosphere to meet fellow travelers. The pool was a major highlight, providing a refreshing spot to relax and cool off.
The facilities were quite basic and could use some improvements. The showers lacked convenience with no hooks or shelves, making it difficult to keep belongings dry.

The hostel has a laid-back and friendly staff, with a comfortable and quiet atmosphere. It is conveniently located close to the beach, away from the dusty main road. the private room is spacious and the toilets and showers are clean. the pool and outdoor area, as well as the inside common area with comfy sofas, provide a nice place to relax during the day.
Some staff members seemed unaware of certain information and were not proactive in addressing noise issues at night.

The pool and outdoor area were great for relaxing during the day, especially after a long day of exploring. The inside common area was also cozy with comfortable sofas, perfect for chilling out and meeting other travelers. the fan in the room and the common area provided much-needed relief from the heat.
The staff and noise at night were major drawbacks. It seemed like the staff were more interested in partying and hanging out with friends rather than ensuring a peaceful stay for guests.

Clean toilets and showers. The staff was helpful and friendly, always willing to assist us. The chill area was quite nice and provided a relaxing atmosphere. Additionally, the surrounding area was beautiful and offered scenic views.
The description was misleading as it stated the hostel was "on the beach" when in reality it was a significant distance away, requiring crossing a busy and dusty main road. The rooms were also built with fragile materials and were not properly cleaned.

I had a wonderful stay at a hostel in Santa Teresa. The location was great, just a short walk from the beach, and there were some amazing restaurants nearby. The outdoor seating area and kitchen were cozy and convenient. The staff were helpful and efficient, always ready to assist with anything I needed. The dorms and beds were comfortable, and I enjoyed relaxing in the hammocks and by the nice pool. Plus, the hostel had two kitchens where I could cook my own meals. I had a great time and would recommend this place.
While there were many positive aspects of my stay, there were a few minor drawbacks. The shower could have been more convenient with hooks or shelves, and the private room in the main building could have used some hangers or closets.
