Santa Teresa doesnt have dirty beaches, the community cleans it twice a week.Now, if you call dirty because in rainy season it gets longs on the beach that its called nature.
People doesnt have to smile and for sure wont to somebody with such rude and scornful manners.Actually everybody says hi to everybody, so if you dont get a smile from anybody…that speaks outloud about you.
Yeah, the prices are higher in this part of Costa Rica, its a beach town, and in high season for sure it will be more expensive you cant compare this to SJO for example,and you have prices that suits any budget, bed ranging from $5…
There are 2 private doctors in town, about 10min from Santa Teresa, but if you dont have $5 to pay a bed i guess you wont have $20to pay a doctor and i wont ask if you have travel inssurance.
And…this is Central America, not South America…go back to school.

Santa teresa isn’t a paradise, not anymore… too many thieves, dirty beaches, people don’t smile, high prices to be in south america where there isn’t a doctor until 3 hours of car… it’s nice for holyday but, definitly, not to for living!

A site visitor sent us a question asking:

Where does giselle bundchen have a house in Costa Rica?

The answer is the house is located in Santa Teresa, which is located on the Nicoya penisula of Costa Rica. Most of the locals can point out the house which has super security,so do not even try to ring the doorbell.

I also own in Santa Teresa but visit yearly for vacations only. The above poster(commenter aj) clearly does not speak for the community. Surely the truth lies someowhere in the middle. In a small town that respects privacy the shutterbug was not hurt but aggressively warned about privacy. Locals do appreciate Gisele who chose our lovely town just as we all did. Gisele provided work to locals and did buy a truck that fits in well. If you ever have a chance to visit you’ll fall in love. Forbes calls in one of the 10 best beaches in the world. Great surfing, sunsets over the beach, white sand, monkeys, etc.

it is an insult to my my intelligence to even be writing, i live in santa teresa, have been to giselles house, know the security guards, and this is all bullsh#t who f###ing cares… we should all look at ourselves and realize that if this is what we care about we are f###ed as a human race. i can respect what they both do but only to an extent…. if either one of them steps up to better the living situation here in santa teresa ie. paving the road , the local schools. law and order in a place where they like to spend time. not just dumping money to some german lady taking advantage of cheap labor to build there get away home!!!!!
i would ………..well what can i do? keep living the dream and paying for molasses to keep the dust down from her mercedes benz. oh i forgot she traded it for a truck that looks more “local” ;;
and it is all because idiots like me pay attention to what a lucky girl from brazil with a nice ass does on her second wedding day .. and i say lucky because i have been to brazil and girls like that are a nickel a dozen, ;even here in the good ol s.t. costa rica ;but damn that man can throw the pig skin huh???????????????????????

Greetings CostaRicaPete,

Thank you for your comments, we appreciate your visit to our site. Personally, I have shot rifles and hand guns many times while living in Arizona and being able to shoot a gun while the car is bouncing and speeding away would not result in a perfect lateral entry and exit hole. Furthermore, from a source known to me these people did not have any access to the homes private drive. But we all have our opinions and I appreciate yours. Thanks for your time.

Cheers

I disagree, the story is not full of holes as you say. First, I would try to take the memory cards also, that makes senses. Second, being shot from behind, the glass probably imploded into the car, and there would not be a lot left in the sand. Third, the home is probably far enough from a populated beach that gun shot would not be heard. Fourth, I have driven in that area and there are stretches of roads that are not too curvy or bad. He would have been shot driving down her driveway, not a public road, so her driveway was probably paved, unlike the public roads. Finally, just because a car is bouncing, does not mean you can’t fire a shot in the back window and still have it hit the front. Nothing ridiculous in the photographers claims.
