Don't be fooled by the lower prices. There is nothing wrong with this place.The units are new, clean and everything works well. It is as close to the best part of the surf beach as any other (more expensive) hotel. Melanie and Frederick are very friendly and helpful, and they make sure the place does not get carried away with... More

Hotel Meli Melo was more than we could have ever hoped for! The rooms were very clean, spacious, and quiet. Every morning Angela made us a wonderful freshly prepared breakfast in the beautiful garden. The entire hotel spaces was gorgeous and simple....just what you want on a beach vacation. The location of the hotel was perfect-less than a 2 minute... More

My friend and I stayed at Meli Melo for one week. We got in late at night and Melanie was there to meet us. We woke up the next morning and the surf was great and only had to walk 100m to the beach. Amazing. Throughout the week we were treated great and the cook made us breakfast every morning.... More

I spent a whole month in this hotel and I still miss every second of it! Melanie has been very helpful from the first time I contacted her to check out the location and prices... Her responses were always quick and her information were reliable... It takes you only 2 minutes by walking to get to the next surfspot which... More

What an incredible experience at Meli Melo!! My stay at this quaint, tropical little oasis was the icing on the cake to my experience in Costa Rica. The rooms are so spacious and well equiped, the common spaces are lush and tranquil, yet you are just steps from the beach, restaurants and nightlife. Melanie and Frederic ensured that everyone had... More

This is a great place to stay. Very clean rooms, lovely owners and staff and perfectly located for the beach. Tip: Get money out from the bank in Mal Pais on your way, because few places accept card (including the hotel) and an ATM is a long walk in the heat (45 mins). Having stayed at many different places during... More

The grounds are lovely and calm, the rooms are nice and tidy and its the best location in St. Teresa! Felt like staying with a family. If you... More

We were offered breakfast at the time we made the reservation, of course we never expected a buffet breakfast or similiar, but the first morming we woke up, we went to the kitchen expecting our breakfast and.. we just saw half of bimbo bread bag and a pineapple...the following 2 mornings was exactly the same, so we ended up having...
