Pachamama is a large private garden lodge and gated community in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica, designed for travelers who love nature, surfing and a relaxed social atmosphere. Set next to the jungle, this lush tropical property is full of trees, plants, birds and wildlife, creating a peaceful and natural environment while still being a place to connect with others.

Within Pachamama you’ll find different types of accommodations to suit different travel styles. Some units are fully private, including a comfortable 2-bedroom house and three private bungalows, ideal for couples, families or anyone seeking more privacy and independence.

Other areas make up the surf camp side of Pachamama, with a more social, hostel-style setup. This section offers four private rooms and four individual beds, rented similarly to a hostel. Guests in this area share a kitchen, bathrooms and showers (cold water), and it is perfect for backpackers, solo travelers and surfers looking to meet others.

All guests share access to the large tropical garden and a central rancho, a covered communal space where everyone can relax, hang out, read, work remotely or connect after a surf session. While some spaces are shared and others are private, everything is thoughtfully laid out within the same enclosed property.

Pachamama is fully gated, with a large wooden gate facing the main street, offering a safe and quiet place to park vehicles, walk freely, and enjoy the surroundings. It’s a place where you can be social if you want, or retreat into your own space, all while living together in harmony with nature.

The surf camp area includes the following:

rooms with fan, bed sheets and towels, fully equipped shared kitchen, shared outside bathroom with outdoor shower (cold water).

Shared space for all Pachamama Lodge guests: Outside chill-out area in our “Rancho” with sofas, chairs, dining tables, and a BBQ area next to the entrance.

To the entire Pachamama Compound. Enjoy our gardens! :)
