3 of us stayed in one of the hotel buenisimo casitas for a week and had a wonderful time. The casita had everything we needed and more. When looking at places to stay, the deciding factor for us was breakfast. Each morning Claudia made us the most fabulous breakfast alternating between gallo pinto, eggs, fresh fruit & toast or banana... More

This is the perfect place to stay if you are visiting the Santa Teresa area of Costa Rica. The hotel has three fully furnished casitas, and two? rooms - all set among the trees well above the (very) dusty main street of Santa Teresa. The rooms are at the main lodge and easy walking distance to all the activities on... More

Went with my sister for a week, and had a awesome time! We stayed in the casita, and had amazing views while relaxing on the hammocks. We were kept busy all week by Ryan, first time to Costa Rica and we were able to see so much in just a week. I still dream about the banana pancakes that Claudia... More

Thank you Charlie for this wonderful stay in Santa Theresa. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our charming casita with unforgettable ocean view. Perfect stay for Valentine's day! It is also a perfect place to come with family and friends, the rooms are clean and beautiful with full equiped kitchen and hot water. There is no A/C but uphill, the... More

My boyfriend & I booked at Hotel Buenisimo based on positive reviews & we were not disappointed. We stayed in both the little room and in the hillside casita. The breakfast that Claudia cooked is was "muy rico" and (even though he didn't let me win at pool) Charlie was very attentive to our needs. By the end of the... More

Third family trip to Buenisimo in 2 years and it feels like home! The secluded setting in the forest up the hillside with ocean views is amazing. Its a good hike up the hill so if you aren't interested in having a short workout every time you go back to the casita, rent a quad or awd vehicle. The payoff... More

My wife, son, and I were able to spend Christmas in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. This was our first trip to Costa Rica. We had so many people giving us advice on where to go. We ended up choosing Santa Teresa. I can't imagine it being any better. Let's start with Hotel Buenisimo. We stayed in the Blue Casita. It... More

A great place to stay in Santa Teresa. The casita was beautiful and the view just got better every day - thanks to the pruning of the banana trees. Kitchen had the basics, although we didn't cooks once. We used the fridge for beer and other beverages. The breakfast was amazing! Huge and delicious. The only challenge was the hike... More

A little bit late on the review (trip was back in June), but have to give Hotel Buenisimo a top notch rating. Great service, location, and accommodations. The staff is friendly and super helpful. They leave you alone if you want, or are there to help if you need them. Owners helped plan daily activities and recommended the best things... More

Thanks to everyone at Buenisimo for making our 5 night stay amazing! My boyfriend and I planned to stay for 2nights and couldn't help but stay longer. The private room was perfect for us, clean and comfortable...not to mention in a beautiful setting! Breakfast every morning was a real treat and better then what you'd find in town! Great owners...
