I did not stay at this hotel on my recent trip to Santa Teresa but the massages and restaurant were highly recommended by the staff at my hotel up the street, so my boyfriend and I went for dinner one night, then massages and lunch the next day. Final verdict: Beautiful beachfront location. Go for a fantastic beachside massage, then... More

This was my second stay in less than 4 months at Tropico Latino. If it weren't for the amazing location, I wouldn't have returned the second time, and while I love Santa Teresa, not sure if I would stay at Tropico again. Basically, the price you pay for Tropico Latino is unreasonably high for the accommodations you get. It's not... More

We were not happy about this hotel. The two-bedroom house had a reallly low standard, and was located in the back-yard. The evening we arrived it was heavy rain, and the roof din`t keep the rain out. The area outside the house was not comfortable in any way. The service by the hotel staff was in our opininon way below... More

Hotel Tropico Latino is not conveniently located, on the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula, it was a 5 hr drive from Arenal, and about the same from San Jose, including the ferry. but if you love to surf, want a nice accommodation and are adventurous, Santa Teresa & Malpais are worth the trip. for the non surfer, they have...

My family of four just returned from an amazing week staying at the new Beach House atHotel Tropico. We have stayed with them before and enjoyed our rooms but their new beach house is amazing! Private yet close to the yoga/spa and restaurant and directly on the beach. While the full house accommodates up to 12 in 5 bedrooms, we... More

As someone who has been to costs rica over 10 times on surfing trips with my guy friends, I knew when I convinced my wife to give it a try, just the 2 of us, our accommodations needed to be a little better than what 5 guys can deal with. Roughing it for her is no room service. Tropico Latino... More

This hotel is located on a great stretch of beach, which was easy walking to the main parts of playa carmen but just far out enough that the beach front wasn't too crowded. We ate once at their restaurant; the food was a bit pricey but it tasted great. Each cabin had its own hammock outside, the inside was roomy,... More

Our room had driftwood and basket lamps and a bright quilt on the wall. NO alarm, phone, tv, desk, stationery etc! a huge covered porch with a hammock and adirondack chairs and table. nice bathroom with shower, a safe, a fridge w minibar and snacks. that's it. We didn't need anything else because there was this white graveled path to... More

To be honest, my wife and I ended up at TL after searching for the best rate after arriving in town. While the rate was great, the property is what made us decide to stay. Each little bungalow is nestled among bushes and trees which makes it feel very private, save for the many iguanas that roam the property. While... More
