We had a great stay at Akwa! Alexia and Eduardo were welcoming, kind and responsive. The villa was luxurious, with minimalist design, a full sliding door that transformed the space into shared indoor/outdoor space. The private plunge pool is a game changer! The driveway into the development is very steep, but this is typical of many accommodations in Santa Teresa. You can walk to the beach and back, just prepare yourself for a short but challenging climb back up!

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.

Alexia was awesome! Helped me and my partner with many questions! Also booked us a taxi from Cobano to Santa Teresa and from Santa Teresa to Cobano, with timing on point! We also had rented an ATV and she made sure the ATV was there when we arrived to Akwa Santa Teresa! Definitely recommend to book for anyone who wants a chill relaxing quiet place with wonderful service!

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!

Reservé el Bungalow y cuando llegué me dijeron que no estaba disponible, me dieron otra habitación con un segundo piso donde los huéspedes hacían demasiado ruido, yo reservé el bungalow y pagué el doble del resto de habitaciónes para tener esa privacidad y simplemente me dijeron que era esa la unica opción, de las dos noches reservadas, estuve solo una, preferí perder la segunda noche a pasar otra noche sin poder dormir.

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!

Super séjour nous sommes tombés amoureux de cette petite ville ! Je recommande un 4x4 pour l’état des routes et la montée pour atteindre l’hôtel. Eduardo est très à l’écoute et disponible, hôtel magnifique et très bon service. Mon seul petit point négatif serait l’accueil du premier jour vu le prix de la nuit mais sinon rien à dire.
