"Everything you need is nearby. Most pristine beach, a little grocery store with so much to offer, we cooked most of our meals there and the kitchen had enough supplies to make our food. Gorgeous villa, we felt very spoiled! The gentleman/security guard was very nice. Staff answered all our questions, I had many lol! Will definitely return!"

"Amazing experience, such a beautiful stunning property with views that are out of this world. One of the best places to stay in Santa Teresa! I will return. Even saw a famous Hollywood actress whilst I was there. I will be back for sure. "

"This place is gorgeously curated but somehow marrying a modern, upscale vibe. The beach club is spacious and well appointed with tables and loungers - it could be a beachfront nightclub in the evening - but also fun toys like slack lines and ping pong. The perfect spot to enjoy a cocktail, the sunset, and the hermit crab rush hour. The pool is beautiful but seldom used by anyone durning my stay."

"Lua Villas was absolutely amazing for our week long stay! The kitchenette is well stocked with the cookware and dishware we needed to cook most evenings. We enjoyed the yoga studio and the pool daily and thought the location was perfect for what we wanted. Playa Hermosa Cóbano is a quiet and lovely community away from the hustle and bustle of Santa Teresa, but close enough for a jaunt into town if needed. The landscape and vegetation at Lua Villas is beautifully done to allow guests privacy and seclusion within the space. And we can't forget the staff. Everyone was so helpful and Julia, in particular, helped us with so many things. We'll be back and will plan to stay here again without hesitation!"

"We stayed in Manzanillo because we had family members staying in Santa Teresa but we wanted a more laid back, less bustling scene. Manzanillo was a great choice. It's about 20 minutes from Santa Teresa, and the house was beyond expectations; one of my favorite Vbros ever! It's perched on a hill of its own, up a short steep cobblestone driveway (4WD not necessary) with a treetop sublime view of the ocean and jungle-covered hills. The beach (much less crowded and low key than the Santa Teresa beaches) is a two minute walk away, at the foot of the hill. The beach goes on and on, you can walk for hours. You hear the crash of waves and the birds and, now and then, monkeys. The interior materials....wood, polished concrete floors with wood accents, polished concrete counters, comfy wicker furniture and white walls and open floor plan create an architectural gem. Large door shutters open up to let the outside in, creating expansiveness. There is a large porch with hammocks at each end and sofas and rocking chairs. This house is ideal for families and couples. The bedrooms are situated at each end of the living room/kitchen area. Equally important in the equation is the responsiveness of the host. Kristi is exceptional. I had so many questions because I felt responsible for other members of my famijly who were staying nearby, in regards to transportation and activities etc...Kristi unfailingly responded with kindness and attentiveness. A sheer delight!"
