Nautilus Boutique Hotel

Mal País & Santa Teresa


If you're looking for a healthy, relaxing retreat with a bit of luxury, Nautilus is for you. Each villa has a living area, fully equipped kitchen and private deck. Even better, the design incorporates plenty of wood, natural elements, local artwork and fine linens. The freshly squeezed juice you're handed upon check-in will make your day.

Besides being a boutique hotel, Nautilus is also a 'wellness center,' offering twice daily yoga classes and amazing, healthy food at the onsite restaurant Olam. About 2km north of the main T-intersection.
