We just returned from our first vacay in Santa Teresa! We had a great time and are already planning our next trip
there! I cannot thank you enough for your videos! Your walk throughs were incredibly helpful!! Y'all showed us
the town and the shops/restaurants that were there. It helped us to be prepared for the dust (lol - the struggle is real!)
and to know what was going to be near us. Your video on Isla Tortuga was great as well!! Thanks! Pura vida!
It's a slice of paradise but the road through town sucks. So busy with traffic and locals driving WAY too fast. Zero shoulder to walk. It's sketchy in that regard. People need to SLOW down through town. The people walking alongside the road maybe have a 2-3 foot berth between them and cars or quads or buses. Should be the focus of infrastructure improvement. Too much fast traffic for this small of a town.
Haha, minute 26'03' it's me. With the purple t-shirt. I was just seeing the date and I was there and then I appeared there. Great video.
🤣🤣 That's cool!
I cannot imagine living on that street or close by. It's so noisy. I have never been to ST but apparently, people love it! Great walking video - thanks.
Thanks! Very busy, most people live outside of town
Shocked. I was there many times for a couple of months from about 1990-2000. No paved roads, almost no commercial establishments but three or so local restaurants. No electricity till about 1992. Loved it. Not much of a speeding problems with unpaved road. I guess this is progress but I am really happy to have spent time there then
You're shocked that the area is developed after over 25 years since you were there last? 🤔😂
@@TheDufresnes no. Shocked at the haphazard way it was done. No space for walkers and bicycles. It is a resort area. People should not be taking their life in their hands if they choose to move around the eco friendly way
@user-zs9bw3pw7o agreed, it's crazy how they build here, especially without safety in mind!
Thank you for making this video. I will be staying here for 6 days. This is perfect research for my trip
It doesnt look very appealing.. but a lot of people say they like it. Am I missing something?
It's busy but is worth a visit. Good restaurants and good surfing. Samara in our opinion and most people's is much better and more of what Costa Rica is about
I appreciate the walk through for when I am on the elliptical, I walk along with you 😊 We are looking to move to CR sometime in the future, just trying to figure out logistics, but it's fun to daydream about being there already!
That's a good way to watch the walk throughs
Thank you so much for this.
Con gusto
I’m from CR and other than nature and beach it looks like there’s nothing to see in ST. Unfortunately it seems the local municipality is not too worried about curb appeal and that’s one thing many little beach towns like this one could use along coastal areas in CR.
Great video.. would love to see more of the beach. Maybe a closing flyby end to end?
We have filmed some of the beach in another video and will film more of it tomorrow
Pura Vida 💚💛
Great Job!!! Thank you for the tour... :-)
Thanks for watching
Thank you very much for this walking tour. It certainly does not make me want to relocate there! Happy new year!🎉
Thanks for watching, Happy New Year
@@TheDufresnes thank you both for your videos. I have been watching over the past few month a appreciate seeing your progress on the pool and tips for living in CR. My wife and I will be coming down in February and plan to be in Samara Feb 12-15. Would love to say hello! We would also like a recommendation for a realtor who can spend a few hours with us.
Awesome, we'll be bust those days because we're heading to Mexico but send us and email at Seacasasamara@gmail.com and we'll send you the contact for 2 realtors we recommend
I have been to Santa Teresa a couple times, but back then it wasn't nearly so busy! That said, I am surprised by how little it has changed over the years (aside for the traffic and a few more eateries).
ST has grown quite a bit, the road was paved a couple of years ago. It still retains the surfer town feel though. Montezuma has almost stayed the same for over 2 decades...crazy
Nice place.
Santa Theresa is a bit of a Gong Show. We have a house closer to Tambor and this whole area is the busiest I have ever seen it. Nice to visit ST, but i would never live there. KOOK'S smokehouse is a great place to eat at, besides Taco Corner! You can't see it during the day, but at night, tge hills are a light with houses!
Wtf is a gong show and how does that correlate to Santa Teresa?
@@MrMacDracula The Gong Show is that there is crazy traffic, the roads are getting shittier, and there is too many people and homes for the infrastructure. It is not that I don't like Santa Theresa, it is just growing way too fast! I am not the only one that thinks this, it is talked about on the Penninsula, often.
That's a long, albeit, enjoyable walk!
In one year and there a few new restaurants. I was there in March. I can tell new spots along the main road. I had fun but man the dust is nuts. Lol
Yes the dust is crazy but it's a lot better here then Guiones
@@TheDufresnes it's just dusty and roads are rough. You must have a suitable truck or 4wheel. Some people were not prepared.
@@arte7sol they have paved a lot of it since last year
@@TheDufresnes i was there for the month of March. Roads are not all great. The paved section is outside of the heart of the town.
That's great we we just there in April and found most of the road not that bad. I guess it depends on what you compare to. If someone wants good roads then Costa Rica beach towns aren't the place to be. The paved section started just after katana and there is no heart of town in Santa Teresa it's one long strip as you know. If you don't like a little bit of dust or mud we've heard new York has a lot of concrete
Another awesome video, thank you!! We never did make it down to Santa Teresa when we were there last (maybe next time) but did go to Montezuma. Are you planning on swinging by there this trip or would that be for another time?
We went to montezuma for lunch yesterday but are going back tomorrow to chill for a bit and film more
@@TheDufresnes Sweet deal!! One thing different locations prove is that Costa Rica is beautiful EVERYWHERE! lol Pura vida!
That's for sure
You have to try Taco Corner! Will not be disappointed.
So we've heard, don't think we'll make it to taco corner this visit as we have had restaurant videos to shoot
Thank you for this. So does everyone get their water at the Megasuper then?
Any super market, but this isn't the case for everywhere. Where we live we drink the tap water
Great video! Im curious if anyone has any experience with flying (im in US and want to go to Costa Rica) with young toddlers….I’m nervous for the traveling part. Also, a single mother at that. So would be traveling with two toddlers, alone. Wondering if it’s safe to travel alone to Costa Rica with children. I’m sure it is and you just have to be smart. Just like everywhere else.
Lots of people travel here with their kids! including us, kids love it here because of all the wildlife and the beaches. Where we live in Samara there are a lot of families and we have the safest swimming beach in Costa Rica, of course you still have to be cautious when in any ocean.
Costa rica is super safe. But with kids I wiuld say go to Tamarindo not Santa Teresa. The roads, well you see. And although Tamarindo maybe similar, I saw families there and see a better selection to just chill or be with young kids.
@@arte7sol Tamarindo is a bit better fir kids, but Samara is the best as our beach is the safest and calmest in the country, there are good kids activities plus its super chill.
My boyfriend and I are trying to decide between Santa Teresa and Nosara 😅.. Any thoughts/tips?
Nosara has less and is way more spread out, Santa teresa is more busy but has more to offer as far as shopping banks etc. Check out our nosara walk thru video
Santa Teresa is a true haven.
We like it!
how would you pack for 1 week in ST ?
Shorts, t shirts, camera. It all depends on what you plan on doing
@@TheDufresnes mainly beach! keep it simple i'm assuming
@@robertpelley8021 yes exactly, especially because it's only for a week. You can buy things like shampoo and stuff in Costa Rica so some people only bring a carry on with clothes. But if you're planning to bring back souvenirs then bring a checked bag too
