The rooms have been renovated since the last visit, as they were then and are very clean now. The air conditioning works great, the new shower is great, and there is a romantic mosquito protection around the bed. We have been there for the third time and will definitely be back!!

Purity of life

Our stay was fine we were not expecting a five star hotel….our room was clean and the service was good!  Bed was a little uncomfortable as for the air conditioning was not located in a great spot so it did not cool us off….the breakfast was wonderful and staff very friendly! The owner Peter has a great interesting story.  I would recommend if you are looking for a room and you are on a budget!

Good Stay - Food Great

Good stay and great food

We had Variacao Mar dinner enough for two but really 4!  Sunset dinner in Santa Teresa! Beautiful setting wonderful food!  Right on the beach.

We had squid, octopus, shrimp, and Mahi Mahi, beautifully paired with amazing sauces. 

The best part of our dinner was our server, Vickie - The Amazing Waitress from Argentina! Her English was amazing!

Restaurant was amazing!!

What's not to love? In the middle of nature on a gorgeous beach away from the hustle and bustle from Santa Teresa but still in the middle of it all. We, a family of four with two sons of 18 and 17, just loved this place from the moment we arrived. The room was ready although we arrived before 12 noon. Dumped our bags and walked through the beautifully maintained grounds to the beach. The beach is gorgeous, lined with palm trees and other big shady trees. There are rock formations but with big sandy tidepools in between that are good for swimming with low tide. The rooms are very spacious and cleaned every day. And yes, sometimes there is an ant running through the bathroom, but how could there not be? Just look through the windows of your room and see where you are. Surrounded by beautiful tropical vegetation where squirrels are running and jumping around in the early morning and you're sometimes woken up by howler monkeys looking for food in the trees of Ranchos Itauna. Not bad I say! Breakfast was great, every morning a little surprise from gallos pintos to eggs benedict, good coffee and different mixes of fresh fruit juices every day. Peter did a great job with helping us with surf lessons for our youngest son. Just a 5-minute walk to either Santa Teresa beach or Carmen beach depending on the weather and the surf. The teachers were great and safety came first! The last day of surfing they went to Mar Azul on a motorbike as they wanted him to experience great waves as he was ready to hit some big ones. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets with great G&T's every night listening to relaxed music. We had a couple of really yummy meals in the restaurant. Best burgers ever and the tuna with wasabi mash was just fantastic! The staff of the bar/restaurant were just lovely and fun. We rented a 4x4 700cc buggy to explore the area. Great fun, unpaved roads, crossing rivers and jungle, visited Montezuma and hiked to the waterfalls, amazing place to be and swim.If you have time, just stop and explore at Rio Lajas, just wooww. Nicolas can help you with arranging this for better prices then you can do it yourself. In the end we decided to add one extra night and went straight from Ranchos Itauna to the airport instead of spending one night in San Jose. So we ended up spending 8 nights here. We wanted a chill paradise like beach place to end our almost 4 week trip in beautiful and amazing Costa Rica and Ranchos Itauna did not just live up to the expectations but was a way way better end of our trip then we could have imagined. Thanks to you all for a fantastic time. Pura vida!

Paradise!

We were at this beach resort in Santa Theresa today and we both drank a smoothie. I was a little irritated because this dried lime was stuck to the edge of the glass... I wondered if the bartender might be drunk and didn't think it was particularly appetizing... the smoothies were also very expensive and were more crush ice than fruit.

Not recommended for drinks

We stayed there with our two teenagers  for 10 days and enjoyed the spacious rooms and the direct access to the beach. The grounds around the property are perfect to relax, there are hammocks , palm trees that offer shade and a really good beach bar / restaurant for fresh smoothies, juices and healthy food.
The staff was at all times very friendly and helpful.
The owner had great tips for excursions, surfing lessons or horseback riding.
We can only recommend this place and we‘ll be back for sure.

Great place, very friendly staff, highly recommended!

We loved this place! Charming rooms with comfy mattress. Nice restaurant. Scenic, rocky beach with tide pools where the kids liked to play. Beautiful sunset, kind staff. Great music and DJs. Close to surf spots. If you’re OK with basic room amenities and like to feel close to nature, great option.

Beautiful beach, lush eco resort

Getting away from Europe after a year of lockdowns and physical social distancing Ranchos Itauna was the perfect choice. My wife , two kids and myself stayed in the beautiful, down-to-Earth Beachfront Suite inmidst Coconut trees... Just looking from the veranda you feel like paradise... The owners and service did a great job looking after us... 
Certainly the place to be... The huge tidepool at the beach is great fun for a good swim and safe for the kids too... The great surfing spots are a short 5 min walk to the left or right..
We'll be back for sure... Highly recommended!
Love it!

The perfect holiday

Ranchos Itauna is right in front of the beach, the ranches are very comfortable, it's a quiet, safe place, the service is excellent, Joselyn's attention to breakfast is exceptional.
