Testimonials

“Santa Teresa is magical and this house is the best way to experience the area.”

Villa Makai is just as you see in the pictures but better! It’s in a perfect location, tucked away in the quietness jungle while being just steps away from heart of Santa Teresa’s best restaurants and beaches. The house is thoughtfully designed and very clean. We saw everything from howler monkeys to iguanas and the most beautiful insects without having to go too far. What we appreciated the most was Julie and Martins hospitality! Listen to their recommendations, because they’re truly the best the area has to offer. We can’t wait to come back again!

“We had an amazing experience staying at Villa Makai with Martin as a host!”

The view is amazing and the close location to town and the beach was convenient. You will definitely need a 4 wheel drive SUV/truck to make it up the hill to such an amazing view but it is well worth it. Martin had tons of great recommendations and was always quick to respond to any questions we had. Overall I highly recommend this to anyone looking for the full Santa Teresa experience!
