Hotel Tropico Latino

This hotel exceeded our expectations. I felt like I was on a remote getaway. I stayed in one of their rooms in the garden and it was absolutely beautiful! It was like having a private cabin to ourselves. Our friends stayed in a beachfront unit and although it was wonderful, I preferred the garden. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The hotel was kept very clean. I would definitely recommend it.

We enjoyed our time very much in Santa Teresa. The hotel was exactly what we expected and will hopefully return in the near future.

We chose Hotel Tropico Latino for our honeymoon stay in Santa Teresa, and it was gorgeous. We went with the beach bungalow, which I would highly recommend for anyone who's looking for some quiet privacy with a personal hammock and a very nearby beach. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the food at the hotel restaurant is pricey but really delicious and worth trying at least once. I loved that you could have drinks brought to you right on the beach all afternoon. And the beach is mostly sandy with very few rocky parts - a lot of strong waves, though, and great for surfing if you're into it. While in itself being very private and relaxing, the hotel's location is conveniently located along the same road as many local sodas, bars and supermarkets, and it is also easy to rent an ATV and take a day trip to see Montezuma Falls. We also used a local tour agency to take a day trip to Tortuga Island for snorkeling, and went horseback riding at a nearby ranch. So, there's tons to see and do, and yet the option to absolutely do nothing and enjoy the peace and tranquility of the warm ocean breeze. I would highly, highly recommend it, and hope to get back there again someday!

In general it was very good. Staff was outstanding and the quality and value of the food at the on site resturant were great. A short walk from up town where there are other great places to eat. On one of the best streaches of beach in the area.

When we arrived they couldn't find the second reservation They called the manager and good think I had kept the expedia confirmation. They found a room but we had to move to another after 2 days. No hot water in i room for 2 days . The toilet was plug in i room . General housekeeping needed work but setting was beautiful. A great resort that needed some simple maintanence

This hotel was disappointing overall. The grounds were overgrown, traffic was loud, and the neighbors dog barked all morning. The rooms were outdated, the bed very old, and the cleanliness was questionable. The restaurant was forgettable, and the beach really not as nice as expected. Given that getting to Santa Teresa is a long, strenuous trip down some atrocious roads, we wish we had booked something else. We did have dinner at Nectar one night, it is at Hotel Flor Blanca, and were very sad that we had not stayed there instead. Dinner there was fantastic and the hotel seemed immaculate - the difference was night and day.

Hotel Tropico Latino is hard to get to but worth every bit of effort. A beach paradise second to none.

We stayed here at the end of October so the hotel was nice & quiet at night. There was some construction going on so the condition of the place wasn't as high, but it was the rainy season after all. Nice staff, helpful & friendly. There is a spa and yoga which is great. Yoga would also be better in the dry season as classes got cancelled and had low attendance when I was there. Great location right on the beach (we had a beach bungalow). Also close to the other local beaches, shops, cafés etc.

This place was great! Well decorated and maintained, two steps from the water (ocean view from our little bungalow was exceptional). Extremely accommodating service all around. In particular at the restaurant, who's chef mixes Indian ingredients with Costa Rican food to build a truly original menu. Amazing massages for my wife and I with the sound of waves crashing in the background.

This was a hotel picked entirely at random for a spur-of-the-moment adventure, and we're so, so happy we found this one.....a true keeper. From the extremely kind and accommodating staff to the jaw-droppingly beautiful location, with the amenities offered and restaurant in-house, the Hotel Tropico Latino satisfied every last wish and ones we didn't even know we had. For example, there are a number of pleasant pups roaming freely throughout the grounds (as can be found in any town in Costa Rica), and my husband and I "adopted" one for the week. We went during their rainy season, and even when the power went out briefly that didn't stop the staff from providing an amazing meal with excellent service. This is officially our home whenever we head down there!
