Where to Stay as a Solo Traveler

Santa Teresa has earned its reputation for white sand beaches, world-class waves, and a vibrant traveler scene, so it's no surprise it tops the list for solo travelers. Finding the destination is one thing, but finding a home away from home is another. Set 100 metres back from the beach, House of Somos is an outpost built for the adventurous type: people looking to meet like-minded travelers, balance rest and play, and experience everything Santa Teresa has to offer.

Unwind Where the Jungle Meets the Sea

Whether you want the seclusion of a private room or the social energy of a shared dorm, there's a room for you. Our dorms come with privacy curtains, personal lockers, and two ensuite bathrooms, so you get the full traveling experience and still sleep deep. Upgrade to the Deluxe Dorm for a full-size bed. Prefer more solitude? Private rooms range from Deluxe Bungalows in the trees to converted Airstreams, each a minimalist space with curated art and vibrant accents.

Get Your Surf Fix

The on-site surf shop has everything you need, from custom boards made by our resident shapers to rentals and advice on the best local breaks. New to surfing? We offer lessons for all skill levels. Not in the mood to paddle out? The beaches are just as good for swimming and soaking up the Pacific.

Explore on Two or Four Wheels

Motorcycle and quad rentals let you explore like a local, from winding coastal roads to jungle trails. Cruise through town for its mix of cafés, shops, and bars, or venture further to find waterfalls, tide pools, and breathtaking viewpoints.
