Florblanca Resort

We have now stayed in three separate villas at florblanca and they were all perfect for us, but the real reason to stay here is the staff. The people who work at Florblanca are just special. From the reservations manager who coordinated our rooms and so many other details (car rentals, atv rentals…) to the concierges to the servers, everyone we encountered was pleasant and helpful. The resort is located ON the beach, which is absolutely where you want to stay in Santa Teresa. There are lots of beautiful, expensive Airbnbs in the hills-we stayed in one our second week, but I HIGHLY recommend staying on the beach, especially if you surf. It’s just better. Look no further if you want a comfortable air conditioned room with wifi in Santa Teresa.

Solid, not spectacular, overall. Charging 5-star price ($750/nt) for 3/4 star, dated room. Exterior living room and bathroom — open to nature without AC — means you stay in the cooled bedroom and that raccoons come nightly to check your mini-fridge. Christmas dinner at Nectar was a highlight. Staff was very pleasant and responsive.

Horrible Spa experience. Went there 2 days ago and walked out within 5 minutes of the massage starting. It is now Monday Feb 8th and the Manager has not even contacted us despite being notified of this incident. Their Masseuses are not confident and lack in technique and training. Staff are rude and have ZERO customer service skills. Horrible service at restaurant. Double standards by staff - they follow rules for somethings and do not follow rules for other things.

While spending a month in Costa Rica ( Pinilla ) we decided to venture down to Santa Teresa for four days. Clay @walkonwateradventures recommended we stay here and thank goodness we listened. We arrived the day they opened after being shut down due to Covid. We were greeting immediately when we pulled into the parking. The staff was very safe and cautious but also so gracious. We checked in and were taken to our villa. AMAZING is all I can say. The pictures we saw online were beautiful however being in the villa was 100x better. The entire staff was truly amazing. We dined in at the resort numerous times from breakfast , lunch , sushi, dinner. I will say our meals each time were amazing. The beaches were so beautiful along with the sunsets. I was able to get in a private Pilates class which was awesome. The instructor truly knew what she was doing and really made me sore :) The nature surrounding us was incredible. I would highly recommend if you travel to Santa Teresa that you stay at FlorBlanca.

We paid upfront for a vacation that was supposed to happen June 2020-I called to cancel well outside of the 60 day requirement for full refund-we booked the whole trip on credit card that was charged instantly but apparently they are not able to instantly refund-it has been over two months of excuses and we have not seen a dime-so disappointing.
