We stayed with a young toddler during a rainy season, in the middle of a tropical storm,  and even though mosquitoes, heavy rain and the rest of the jungle life was a bit more aggressive than during dry season, we enjoyed our stay. Property is beautiful and you get to experience jungle like to it's fullest. One of the best beaches with amazing tide pools in ST is 2 min walking . Property owners are very accommodating, warm and attentive. We appreciated all the attention and kindness they showed to us. We'll be back.

Macanas is an excellent choice if you want to stay at the beach (without breaking your bank) yet within walking/driving distance from the hustle of the town. Property is gorgeous, small and private, and located in the jungle so you get to see and experience all the wildlife. Property owners are amazing and very accommodating, we could not wish for better attention, communication and hospitality they provide. We are very grateful for having found this place.

My wife and I stayed at Makanas for 10 nights on May 2024. We definitely enjoyed our stay. The studio is nice ans has everything for the stay. The staff (Vane and Leysi are the best) was awesome and prepared the best waffles and gallo pinto ever for breakfast!I would HIGHLY recomend that if you did not rent a 4 wheeler or a car, find somewhere else to stay because Makanas is very far as a walking distance from either bars/restaurants/supermarkets, and taxis are extremely expensive

Monkeys hanging out above our cabana!

The bungalows are a hidden gem- newly restored and beautifully appointed, spacious for 2 people, away from the overcrowded tourist places, yet basically at the beach (short jungle walk away). Tyler, our host, was always there, super nice and super helpful. You need to have a 4WD to get there (steep driveway, about 2 miles from Santa Teresa downtown, rough roads). Its 5 min drive to the supermarket, 5 minute drive in the other direction to the Hermosa Beach (probably the best spot for surfing classes). Two nearby restaurants were closed (rain season), but its super close to multiple other food options (restaurant at the banana beach was probably our favorite). Highly recommended!

Simple accommodations north of busy Santa Teresa. Clean comfortable. Daily breakfast, parking, AC. Reasonable price between $30 hostel and $600-$800 hotels. No ocean view; Short path to beach, past a few other homes. Can also walk to Rocomar beach restaurant but otherwise you would want a car to see more.  Numerous nearby beaches offer surfing at all levels.  We worked with Mario at Nalu surf shop and were happy.  Tyler was helpful and made several spot-on local recommendations. Santa Teresa is eclectic beach community where you will share the road with bikes, motorcycles, ATVs, delivery, trucks, dust, pedestrians, dogs and vehicles of all kind. It’s part of the experience Pura Vida.

Clean comfortable, near beach

This was a quaint bungalow in the jungle and steps to the beach. The grounds were beautiful, the breakfast was great, the owner very accomodating, rooms were very clean, enjoyed our stay here being so close to the beach.

Beautiful, Quiet Stay

The bungalow was super comfortable, clean and had a very comfortable king sized bed. The location is great because you are just far enough North of the busy center of town so that the forest and amazing beach are very quiet, but close enough to enjoy the restaurants and action if you want to. Owners Mary and Tyler are friendly and courteous, and went out of there way to help us out and make sure we had a good trip.

Beautiful jungle accommodation right on the beach

Makanas is an amazing place to stay in Santa Teresa! Tyler has done a wonderful job with the property and is very helpful with locals tips and recommendations. We got an ATV rental in town for the five days we were here and it was awesome. The perfect (and very fun) way to get around and explore. The breakfast was included at Makanas and was a delicious and simple Costa Rican plate. The rooms were up to date, cute, clean, and air conditioned. The beach was beautiful and 30 seconds from the front door. I’d highly recommend staying here as a home base for exploring Santa Teresa!

The bungalows are very peaceful, clean and cozy and the location was absolutely perfect! We loved every minute of our stay there and have already recommended Makanas to our friends and family.Tyler was an excellent host and provided us with great recommendations about what to do in town: where to go, what to see, what to eat and how to get around and make the best of our trip. He was incredibly hospitable, attentive to us and made our stay wonderful. Lacie makes a great breakfast, as well! Highly recommended.
