I had an very nice stay at Mint Santa Teresa. The stunning views and beautifully designed rooms made my visit lovely. The breakfast was delicious, and Jonas and Johanna were such warm and helpful hosts. However, be prepared for a bit of a hike up the stairs to reach the rooms, and there were some power outages during my stay.

Mint is perched on a hill overlooking the beach, which provided an very nice perspective of the ocean and sunset. Just keep in mind that it’s a workout to walk up from the parking level.

I had an very nice stay at Mint Santa Teresa, which is truly a hidden gem in the jungle. The intimate setting with only five rooms made it feel private yet friendly, allowing me to connect with the lovely owners, Jonas and Johanna, who made everything feel special. The stunning ocean views from my room were amazing. although I did notice a few bugs getting in due to gaps around the sliding doors. Overall, though, the beauty of the hotel and the delicious breakfast made it a wonderful retreat.

Situated just above Banana Beach, the location was perfect for exploring Santa Teresa’s vibe while offering a peaceful retreat at night. The trek up the hill is a bit of a workout, but I didn’t mind at all.
