Banana Beach Hotel was amazing! The bungalows are clean and comfortable . The hotel is busy and very lively!!! If you are looking for quiet this is not the place for you!!! I took my 19 year old daughter for 5 days and we had the absolute best time!!! I can’t wait to take the rest of my family back! One important note- Santa Teresa is NOT easy to get to from San Jose or Liberia. We drove ourselves from Liberia and it was a 4 hour adventure .

Good location and great pool for kids. Noisy due to proximity with main street and parking. Some maintenance needed in pool and water treatment.

This is a great location for walking to several different restaurants. The restaurant in front of hotel has lounge chairs which are a great option for lounging during the day. Service is hit or miss. Our drinks weren’t great but the fries and fried bread were. Loud music into the evening and a young fun party atmosphere. The seating area outside the room always had dust from the termites and ants. And the outside area needed a fan as there was no air movement. Soap and shampoo were supplied which was nice. Parking was spacious. Aircon worked and room stayed cool when out. Spotty internet.

Amazing spot, private and beautiful. Loved the outdoor kitchen. Beds were very comfortable. Pool was very nice. Restaurant was decent. Incredibly helpful at reception. Very friendly. The only thing we didn’t love was the very loud music they played on Wednesday and Saturday nights. As we have a toddler.

This is an excellent location for Surfers looking for a good wave but there isn't great swimming in front of this property rough and rocky. The beachfront restaurant and bar are available for anyone to use which was cool. We loved the patio and hammock with each room. Be sure to use the kitchen locks as raccoons are busy. Great reception but often not there. Excellent food at the restaurant at the beach. Best hummus ever!

Awesome location and amazing restaurant
We had a lovely stay at banana Beach. It was a bit loud in the evenings with the music from the restaurant but they did turn it down relatively early. Our bungalow sweet, a bit basic but had everything we needed. Excellent location in terms of proximity to the beach and town. The highlight was the accessibility to the restaurant right on the beach with a little playground for the kids and lovely food
