My boyfriend and I were planning on staying here for a week and then moving on to see the rest of Costa Rica. But one week turned into to two, then three, then we gave up all pretence that we would move on and ended up staying for 5 weeks. Definitely still not long enough but sadly work was calling... More

I initially booked 2 nights in-between Christmas and New Year but extended my stay as I had such a great time here. The location is fantastic, literally just over the road from the beach, near to a superb supermarket and surrounded by numerous good cheap eats, my favorite being 'El Capitan' which is right next door. The rooms are basic... More

By far the best,cleanest,quietest and most affordable place to stay in Santa Teresa. We've stayed here the last two years and definitely plan to come back again and again. Christian the owner goes out of his way to make you feel welcome and hosts impromptu barbecues which is a great way to meet everyone staying there. Can't fault it one... More

I spent four weeks at Cabinas Calocita in early 2013 and was quite happy about the entire experience. Located 100 meters off the main road (but away from all the dust, which is very important) and 250 meters from Playa Carmen, Calocita is perfectly situated. The hotel has 7 private rooms across 2 stories (4 on top, 3 below), each... More

We wanted to be walking-distance to everything, and boy did we get what we ordered. Calocita is close to the beach, restaurants, groceries, surf shops, travel companies, and even the paramedics - and very LGBT friendly. Chris is a great (and multilingual) host, very personable professional, and the other staff was very patient with my so-so Spanish. Calocita is neat... More

I had a great time at this location. The room was clean and plenty of room for two people. The common areas were pleasant, comfortable and full of great people. Seriously, every person who stayed there was awesome and I think that is a product of the owner Chris. He is super knowledgeable about the area and so focused on... More

My girlfriend and I stayed here for four nights on our way through Costa Rica. We were thankful to find the place as it is off of the main street and away from the dust and traffic. The rooms were spotless, smelled great, and very affordable for the area. Not that you need them, but hot showers were a nice... More

I loved this place, we decided to minimise travelling around and took a gamble on it being a good choice (based on reviews) and it was! If I had the money I would just live there. I could get used to that lifestyle, of waking up wandering to the beach for a swim, coming back, brewing some coffee and reading... More

Some of my favorite things about Calocita include: comfortable hammocks; banana trees; iguanas lounging in the sun; the excellent surfboard shack; being in walking distance of the Pacific Ocean; games in the upstairs lounge area; Chris's unending knowledge and sensible recommendations; being in walking distance of Super Ronny's. The owner and innkeeper, Chris, always knows what's going on - he... More

Just stayed there recently and i was very happy that i found this nice little place. Spent three weeks in Costa Rica and no other accomodation was comparable to this one. Clean rooms (private bath) with good beds very close to the ocean that is what you get for just little money. The owner created a nice and friendly atmosphere... More
