This is a gem in Santa Teresa. The staff are all superb my kids loved the surf instructor (Diego is amazing) and I loved the morning yoga instructor (Daniella is superb) a great way to start your day and spend the whole day with attentive and professional staff. You will never regret staying here and the kids are already asking me if we can come back again next year. A brand new hotel who already have got it all together the small guest amenities (watermelon water throughout the property) and chic design work together with direct beach front property. It was hard to leave but we will definitely be back. Pura Vida, Team Fermata!
Lots of comfortable lounge spaces and cabanas for guests

A brand-new hotel that has impressively managed to get everything ready and delivers a flawless five-star experience. The location is fantastic and feels very safe and secure. A nicely mixed crowd in a very positive way. The staff are warm and welcoming with a sophisticated, family-like touch, making this place a top choice for a relaxed, chic, luxurious stay. We will definitely be back with my daughters.
