I had been to Santa Teresa before and eaten at the magnificent restaurant below the hotel. This time I decided to head back and stay there with some friends seeing the Nicoya for the first time. What an amazing place! Javier is the best host you could ever imagine. The view is incomparable, the rooms are beautiful, clean, comfortable, and... More

Even before we arrived in Costa Rica, the owner, Javier, was incredibly helpful and responsive over email, answering all my questions about travel and directions to Santa Teresa. Upon arrival, we were blown away by the views from the hotel. It sits atop a hill with gorgeous views up and down the coast. A shaded grassy area directly in front... More

My partner and I stayed at Hotel Buenos Aires for 4 nights in mid-March. Prior to arriving, the owner Javier was very helpful in answering my questions and assisting with the reservation. The hotel is located at the top of a very steep hill which posed a bit of a problem for me since I broke my foot a few... More

Hands down the best view in the Santa Teresa area. Unbelievably reasonable room rates, and the manager Javi is extremely courteous. Cold beers in the fridge when you arrive, and restocked every day when the room is cleaned. Hot showers, and air conditioning make the stay very comfortable. Walk down the hill for 5 minutes and you have miles of... More

Unfortunately, we only stayed one night. Javier is a true gentleman and a gracious host. I challenge anyone to find a better view of the ocean. Like previous reviewers, it was a great to find a cold adult beverage in the room after a full day of travel. We would definitely stay there again.

Hotel Buenos Aires is a wonderful hotel and gets an A+++ in my book! Javier and Flo (the owners) are simply fantastic--helpful, kind, and excellent hosts. The hotel is spotlessly clean. I mean, spotless! The rooms are spacious and comfortable and the water is hot (although during high season you rarely need a hot shower). We stayed for 6 nights... More
