My daughter and I had an excellent stay at Nautilus. The staff were very friendly and helped us with everything we needed. We loved that the place has it’s own yoga deck, where we enjoyed yoga and a moon tribe gathering under the full moon. We also liked the small pool, the hammock ouside our villa, and the closeness to one of the most popular restaurants; Eat Street! It is also a calm neighbourhood, and close to the beach. There is a free parking outside, and a kitchenette. Very convenient. We felt safe and taken good care of. Can definetely recommend this place!

The property is unmanaged, the owners have placed international student volunteers to mind their business for exchange of housing. They are pleasant but that does not replace professional and trained staff. At the end of the day, the guest is cheated service. Sad, sad.

This is a really special place. Whether you are staying here, having a meal, or merely stopping by for some yoga, you are bound to see a smiling face and leave feeling better than when you arrived. I was fortunate enough to stay here for a few nights and felt extremely relaxed when I left. The villa was perfect, the meals were delicious, and doing yoga in the treetop level studio rounded out a truly memorable stay. I even got to take part in a delicious vegan, italian pop-up dinner and met some really nice people along the way, none more welcoming than the staff here. This place is great. Thank you for a great stay.

We were suppose to stay here right as the pandemic hit. The property asked if they could keep our money rather than refund and we could reschedule when it was possible. I’ve tried reaching out many different ways with no luck. I understand this was hard on businesses, but some kind of response would be nice. We’d love to go back if possible.

Beautiful hotel away from the main street, my room was big, included living space and kitchen. They have a lovely pool and yoga studio- beach and wonderful restaurants within walking distance. The owner Martin and staff Rami were so helpful with all my questions and set up taxis as well as my snorkeling tour and necessary covid test. They made me feel at home and I really enjoyed my stay!

This Orel is located centrally and easy to get to beach, restaurants, and grocery store. The front desk was never around to answer questions. We went to motel across the street to book tours etc. restaurant was closed. I had to ask for linens. The bed had no bed cover so it was a thin sheet and bed was hard and scratchy. I felt like since it was the slow season( may) they went on their game. I would not stay here again.

I had such a wonderful time at Nautilus. The pictures don't do it justice. When I walked into the hotel, the first thing you see is the lush green plants all the way down the main walk way that lead to the swimming pool (spent a lot of time here to cool off from the heat!!). The property is nice and quiet and the villa was way more spacious than we were expecting. The manager organised some surf lessons for us to make the most of the beach being a few mins walk away. I wish we had more time here. We'll be back.

My wife, 2 year old, and I stayed for six nights. When we arrived, the manager JP told us to use WhatsApp him if we needed anything. The listing on Expedia states, "the front desk is open daily from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm." The manager was only on the property for about 2 hours around noon for 4 of the days we were there. The two staff members who do not speak English were on the property about 5 hours a day. The hotel stated, "personal protective equipment worn by staff." The staff and manager never wore protective equipment. Because the manager was never at the hotel, I organized our activities myself. Our hotel room was infested with ants. The manager laugh and did nothing about it. There is bug spray for sell at the local grocery store. Our room had a broken fan, doorknob, lights were not working in every room, the doors were falling off the hedges, the TV remote did not work, and the safe did not work. The manager said he would fix things, but only fix half the things. The room had dead insects in it the whole time we stand there. There was a rusty nail by the pool were our child played. One night we could not get our stroller in the property because it was blocked by cars and ATVs. The property gate was not lock at night, so anyone could come in without staff members there to watch. The manager and staff became rude and ignored us as we reported the issues we experienced. I emailed the owner, but he ignored us. Expedia contacted the owner, but he would not refund us.

Actually, previously I had posted a comment complaining about not getting my refund due to a cancelation for this week due to the pandemic. Turns out, Hotels.com is keeping my money, according to the Nautilus- which seems like a great place, but since the wedding of my daughter got canceled, we obviously are not traveling since the country is closed. I will say I had TWO different reservations for other family members that the Nautilius DID REFUND. Here is what the hotel said: ""You didn't stay with us so the review is a hoax. We don't hold you funds, you booked through Expedia, they have your funds, hence the reason we recommend booking direct. This way Expedia doesn't get to exploit the hotel whilst they retain the guests money....." SO.... My Question to Hotels.com, WHERE IS MY REFUND???

The property is close to the beach and several restaurants. There is a kitchen so it is possible to make some of your own meals. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The bed was comfortable. Yoga classes are available on site and guests get a bit of a discount.

The staff were super helpful and accommodating, and they stay was lovely overall. Had a great surf lesson arranged with Juan, who’s been surfing there for 15 years. The food was delicious, and had lots of nice options for those in our party who are celiac and/or try to eat plant based (my partner and I stayed there, but had some friends in town).. Not a party place by any means, but that worked for our trip. The yoga space was lovely, and classes were great for the most part, but we decided to take it easier than expected due to the heat (some classes were great for all levels, others might be better suited to more experienced yogis)

Amazing hospitality! This is such a beautiful property in an ideally situated location, just a 2 min walk from the main street but on a side street so quiet and easy to sleep. The rooms are large & spacious, the pool is lovely, the daily yoga was so enjoyable and the food at Olam (onsite restaurant) is delicious + healthy (especially all the smoothies!) The staff went above and beyond to accommodate us with anything we needed help booking and always with a smile. We will be back!

The facility and room were nice. The room is more like a one bedroom apartment with a private porch on the front. I enjoyed our single evening. Unfortunately In the morning there was no water and no one around to see if this was room or facility issue. Despite this I would still recommend staying as there can be uncontrollable situations.

I’m torn on how to rate this hotel. The positives were that the staff was very nice and the apartment we stayed in (number 1) was kept very clean by housekeeping. Also, I heard a few guests complain about the bugs, but I cannot fault the hotel staff. We are in the middle of the jungle! However, we had several problems while staying. First, the shower did not work at all. We alerted the staff who stated this was normal for Santa Teresa due to water pressure. However, we were in for a wedding and spoke to at least 6 different groups of friends who were staying within 500-700 meters of our hotel location and stated they had no problem with water pressure (we even took video to show the poor pressure), so we had to shower at our friend’s hotel. Also, the WIFI did not work in our apartment. We had to go outside to use the WIFI. Also, the pool was not in service due to maintenance issues for one of the days we tried to use it. The other two days it was quite dirty with debris, I’m guessing it was related to the pool maintenance issue. This hotel has a lot of wonderful ratings, so I’m guessing it just happened to be poor for our personal experience. For the price we paid, and what we received, I would not come back again.

We were welcomed with a hug from Gal as soon as we arrived. Nautilus is run by a wonderful owners Edi & Gal, they were always ready to help. Edi gave us plenty of suggestions where to eat, what to do for activity, where to go to watch sunset. Our friends forgot a jewelry in the hotel close by and Gal arranged everything, that it would be brought to us, so we could take it back home to them. Great and friendly service! Delicious & healthy food, coffee, yoga outside on the terrace, great massage, very peaceful place, with a walking distance to the beach. Just a note for those who travels from San Jose airport, make sure to get a car about 5 hours total (drive & ferry - check the schedule) or find out about a shuttle (it's limited a day) or a flight to get to the hotel. We had a fantastic time! Thank you for everything.

This was the most unique and wonderful hotel I have ever stayed in. Our apartment was clean and comfortable. We were in love with the pool area and all this hotel had to offer. Arik and Adi were so welcoming and accommodating. They helped us book excursions and rent ATVs. Everything about the Nautilus is charming and warm and staying there made our trip even better than it would have been.
