    Really good value for money!

    Sometimes, the instructor did not show up for the training - but I guess it's not the hotel's fault. Everything was great!

    Best value for money you will find in Santa Teresa. Tropico Latino is an excellent beachfront hotel that offers breakfast at the beach restaurant. They are always doing the little extras to make you happy. The staff is so friendly, thanks to Guadalupe and Andreas from the reception and all the waiters at the restaurant. The food is excellent. The room was so spacious, with a comfortable bed and pillow (!!). For some reason, most hotels have horrible pillows, but here they were great. Yoga and training offers and facilities are so great!

    And that sound of the waves that accompanies you for a long time can be liked or not ... it kept me company a lot especially when you fall asleep

    The best structure to welcome you in Costa Rica upon your arrival where spending 5 days in complete relaxation is automatic. Pacific Ocean welcomes you with its waves for guaranteed fun. Breakfast by the ocean ... wellness by the sea ... great. I suggest a Thai massage to recover the parts of the body that sometimes you forget to have

    Because there was a lot of rain while we were there the water in the shower would not go down in the toilet was bubbling two nights in a row. If it weren’t for this limitation, everything else was great.

    You are right on the beach. Multiple people stay there, but the layout gives privacy feels as if you have the place to yourself.

    Drinking water. The watter was not drinkable in the room. You had to go fill up the one bottle provided which was too small. I would provide each person with their own bottle and maybe have house keeping fill them

    All of Santa Theresa was very busy. We wish the surf was not so strong. Hard to swim there.

    The property was very zen with the written affirmations on chalkboards as you walk around. The bar/restaurant was nice. It did take some time to get a drink when it was busy. We stayed in the glamping tent and it was lovely right at the beach. One night was a little loud when there was a music concert at a hotel next door. The reception person was very helpful!

    Wi-Fi did not work well, which is tough if you’re working remote from there and rooms could be a bit updated. They also only give you one tiny bottle of water in the room to refill with their purified water. They should give at least 2 because we constantly were refilling.

    Staff was accommodating and friendly! Location was perfect! included breakfast was good, views of the ocean, rooms were decent.. could use updating. Yoga was amazing, spa right there. Walking distance to all restaurants and shopping. Beautiful amenities( spa, pool, restaurant, sittting , hammocks, yoga) .

    There was not one thing I did not like.

    The grounds were beautiful! You are in a tropical jungle with monkeys and beautiful birds. The resort is oceanfront and the beach is beautiful. The accommodations are small houses that are spacious, clean, and have a beautiful outdoor porch with a hammock and Adirondack chairs with a comfy couch. The grounds are clean, serene and you are surrounded by so much natural beauty. Staff is friendly, warm and welcoming.

    The exterior of the room was not very good looking, a bit old. And the traffic noise from the main street was disturbing. The parking lot was very exposed with no gate or security. I was worried about my car every night.

    The location, the gardens , the staff.

    the rooms are a tad outdated

    it took us a few hours to get used to this property as it was our first ‘jungle’ experience. the spacious room was furnished with dark wood and it looked a bit spooky to us. however we quickly got used to our bungalow and really loved our stay here. the small kitchen are was appreciated as we could make our our breakfast, tea and coffee. the small grocery shop is just opposite the hotel, it’s very handy. the situation is exceptional- right on the longest stretch of silky smooth beach imaginable, with surfers to admire. I loved the daily yoga sessions right on the ocean, the teachers were excellent and kind. all in all we highly recommend this hotel to other travellers

    The restaurant made a few mistakes with our food and was a bit pricey, but those are minor things.

    Highly recommended. We searched for places to visit in CR and Santa Teresa came up highly rated. Then we searched places to stay and Hotel Tropico Latino came up first. That was absolutely true! Amazing place, gorgeous beach, wonderful staff, very comfortable room, and great town. We even contact them in advance about transfers and they gave us amazing advice. Will go back.

    Dont go here.

    Its a trap. Beautiful location and the restaurant and cocktailbar is great. You can come here without sleeping in the hotel. They charge you for everything. They should have never build the rooms next to the roads. Not friendly staff. Again except for the restaurant wich is highly recommended.
