Maramar
Walkable to Santa Teresa Beach and The Somos Restaurant
About this stay
Maramar's location does the selling: six minutes on foot from Santa Teresa Beach and two minutes from The Somos Restaurant, close enough that a car becomes optional rather than necessary for most of a typical day here. Rooms come with kitchens, useful for families who want to skip a restaurant meal now and then without much planning, and air conditioning offsets the inland setting compared to beachfront properties with a steadier ocean breeze coming through. The airport shuttle covers the 28-minute run to Cobano, one of the more convenient transfer times found anywhere on this stretch of coast for arriving or departing guests. The overall pace here suits travelers who plan loosely day to day rather than around a fixed list of hotel activities.
- Walkable beach access
- In-room kitchen
- Airport shuttle
- Kid-friendly
Our take
I recommend Maramar to families who want to walk to the beach, six minutes away, and to The Somos Restaurant, two minutes away, rather than drive everywhere. Rooms are air-conditioned with a kitchen for quieter evenings, and an airport shuttle is available. If you want to step from your room onto the sand, I would book a beachfront address.
- ✓Walk to Santa Teresa Beach in the late afternoon, the light and the crowd both ease off noticeably by then
- ✓Book The Somos Restaurant ahead on weekends, it is popular with the whole area, not just this hotel's guests
- ✓Use the in-room kitchen for breakfast to save the morning walk for the beach visit instead of errands

Why guests love itI recommend Maramar to families who would rather walk than drive in Santa Teresa. Santa Teresa Beach is six minutes away on foot and The Somos Restaurant two minutes, so the car can stay parked. Rooms are kid-friendly and air-conditioned, with a kitchen for simple meals, and an airport shuttle is offered. It is a compact four-star property without a long list of facilities, but 100 guests rate it 9.4.
