Excellent stay. Lodge is a hidden gem at an affordable price for all Euro luxuries. Extremely clean, new bathrooms, Hilton style beds and pillows (Slept like a baby!) Will definitely stay there again. Steps from beach and in town perfect location, with free parking on-site.

Amazing place to stay!
We absolutely loved this place. Owners were amazing and very accommodating. Everything about this place was perfect. If we could move in we would!
I was so pleasantly surprised with otro lado. It is amazing value. The bed and pillow is so comfortable, the room is spacious. I loved the yoga shala and the yummy breakfasts. I can’t wait to go back!
Very beautiful hotel and relax. The decoration is focus in meditation and yoga. The room very comfortable, and clean. The service and owner super nice!
Spent 5 nights here and the hotel, staff and property are all amazing. Very clean and beautiful property. Super friendly staff (Max, Richard, the lady at reception) Highly recommend and will definitely stay here again.

There apparently are 2 types of rooms here. The kind they call 'houses' which have 3 bedrooms, kitchen, etc. Then there are 'standard rooms' which have a queen bed, fridge and really nothing else. Disappointed that there wasn't a TV or hairdryer. Also seems to be geared to yoga, etc which is popular with the crowd that goes to Santa Teresa. That was not our style and we really didn't enjoy this area of Costa Rica. Too far to travel to and if you didn't surf, then nothing to do other than spend more money to go quading.
The trip is to long from San Jose. I could have driven to Uvita which is just as nice and not so much dust. The dust is horible. If you have breathing problems, don't go to Santa Teresa!
Beautiful property, wonderful friendly staff, delicious food. Quiet. Would recommend, also would recommended driving a 4x4 there or taking a shuttle from your previous destination.
I absolutely loved my time at Otro Lado. From my arrival -- check in was super fast -- all the way through my last day this hotel proved a beautiful oasis in an otherwise loud and dusty city. The hotel is centrally located in Santa Teresa. Keep in mind; however, that most of the action is in Playa Carmen which will require that you travel every day in one direction or the other. The rooms were always spotless -- something that's not easy to achieve in a beach hotel, but the hotel owners pride themselves in keeping up the grounds and having the highest standard for cleanliness. The pool was very nice and the restaurant, which served complimentary breakfast and a limited menu of [not included] lunches was always on par. Vanessa, at reception was incredibly helpful in giving me the lay of the land and providing outstanding recommendations for local eateries and activities. I was traveling solo, but the hotel was mostly occupied by couples. I'd definitely come back
I spent 4 nights here and it was absolutely fantastic. Very laid back vibe, friendly and helpful staff, nice pool, made to order breakfast in the morning. Perfect little hotel to stay at in Santa Teresa. I have nothing but great things to say about this place.
We arrived early to Santa Theresa and were able to checkin early, which was great!! Hotel is very clean and safe. Beautiful rooms and pool, great breakfast!!!
This was our second stay at Otro Lado. We love the roominess and spaces for relaxation in the lodges, the feeling of seclusion in spite of being so close to the main street of Santa Teresa, the pool to chill in, and especially the warm, gracious staff.
