To start with the positives-- we really thought the property was in a good location, we felt safe, and the pictures definitely showed the property accurately. Our family of five had plenty of space. There was some wear and tear on the property but definitely fine for a rental property. If you stay here, consider bringing beach towels. They have a list of rules and they strongly do not want you to take the beach towels to the beach. They are for pool use only. What was concerning was that the property manager requested that we pay him in cash for towels that we "ruined"- these were inexpensive white towels that my girls got make up on, and my husband stubbed his toe and got blood on one. They claimed that they were not able to bleach the towels without ruining them so we were asked to pay for them. They requested a cash payment. In reaching out to VRBO, we were told that a host should never ask for cash, all business should be be conducted through the website. Overall, we gave a positive rating because the property was good and we loved the Banana Beach experience overall.

Everything was as described in the add. Great location and very clean. Thank you

We absolutely loved our stay there! The little two bedrooms, two bathrooms house was perfect for our holidays in Santa Teresa!The location is spectacular, especially since it’s so close to the coolest place in town: Banana beach club! The house was clean, well equipped and the communications were easy and efficient with the house manager! We totally recommend this place!

Can’t say enough about Casa Keshet. The plunge pool was perfect! We all suffer from bad backs, but none of us had any problems during our stay - the beds were great! We were right next to Banana Beach, but there was never any noise. Ate at Banana Beach restaurant quite often. We loved all the dishes we tried and found the staff very friendly and helpful. We got into the routine of going across the street to La Gilda every morning for breakfast - wonderful! Such a great family, great food and such an upbeat place to start the day! The only thing you should be aware of is not many places take charge cards. They are mostly small businesses, and charge cards take a percentage of their sales. We took the day trip to Tortuguero Island with Zumba Tours. Were so happy to see dolphins on the way over, and then coming back we saw an Orca!!!! Very unusual to be seen in Costa Rica, they thought the last sighting was about 4 years ago. The boat followed him for about 15 or 20 minutes, and he just kept gliding up to the surface, then gliding down again for the whole time we were watching. MAGIC! We also saw a big black snake go across the road on our way back from Montezuma, but the less said about that, the better. All in all we would definitely recommend Costa Rica, Banana Beach and Casa Keshet. Also, the Manager, Andreas, did everything he could to make our stay so great. Thank you Andreas, and also Marco, who drove us from and back to the Liberia Airport. I would suggest flying to Tambor from Liberia. It’s a long drive to Santa Therese. Bottom line - would highly recommend.
