This place is way more than what you see through the pictures! I stayed in the villa for part of my stay and a room for the last 2 days and while the room was cute, the villa was definitely my favorite. Just going up the steps and the little pathway is a total experience. You feel like you're in a jungle with all the beautiful trees, birds, and insects singing all day. Total peace. The property is stunning. The pool is beautiful. Bindu and Antoine were amazing hosts. I had a difficult experience in Rio because my phone was stolen and they did everything they could to assist me while I was moving through this. The power went out once for a couple of hours on new years eve and they allowed me to stay a couple of hours past check out until I left for the airport to make up for that. The internet at the villa would drop often from my MacBook but I had an emergency hotspot and they gifted me a bottle of champagne. There are things that we just can't control but Bindu and Antoine know how to turn the experience around and I highly appreciate that type of hospitality. It's nice to have that type of support when you're traveling. Staying here in Santa Teresa is an experience worth having.
