Conde Nast Traveller Magazine published a cover feature in their November 2014 issue titled Costa Rica’s New Groove: The Coolest Places to Stay in the Jungle and on the Beach. Our beach town of Santa Teresa is one of these places and Florblanca is noted in the feature as the “beachfront beauty” who put it on the map when we opened 11 years ago.
Santa Teresa is a legendary hotspot for surfers and is a desired destination for its laid-back atmosphere and Pura Vida lifestyle. The Conde Nast author gushes over Florblanca’s amenities – including an open-air Yoga shala and a fully equipped Pilates studio – as well as our full treatment Spa Bambu and our private, luxurious villas.
“There are daily ashtanga yoga classes full of strapping surf dudes in an open sided sala cooled by sea breezes, a fully-equipped Pilates studio upstairs, a lemon scented spa (try the coffee scrub), and villas with hammocks big enough for two, outdoor bathrooms with powerful showers and four poster beds. Villa 1 has the best beach view but Villa 11, the honeymoon house, is gorgeous.”
Florblanca is honored to be named among the “Coolest Places to Stay” in Costa Rica. Our staff, the work we put into our accommodations and amenities, and the care we put into each guest’s stay is what keeps us appearing in wonderful press and media features, and is also what keeps our guests coming back year after year.
Thank you to Conde Nast, thank you to our staff, and thank you to our guests who inspire us to have the best resort to offer along the beaches of Costa Rica.

It’s so easy to get lost in our busy lives. With all the details of our day-to-day existence, we can easily lose the connection with our true passion, our energy, and our spirit. This lost connection can be magnified to even greater degrees when we’re in a relationship. The journey we’re on together loses […]
