Green Sanctuary Hotel, hotel in Nosara

Offering an outdoor pool and a spa and wellness centre, Green Sanctuary Hotel is located in Nosara. Free WiFi access and free private parking are available.

Cute and comfy hotel with lots of character. 1. Room+terrace: comfy and cool with the AC. Nice and spacious and I liked having my own little walkway and sitting area to enjoy moments alone. 2. Facilities: nice yoga shala and pool area. The other guests were friendly and it was a nice area to enjoy and chat with others 3. Breakfast: great breakfast! I loved the fruit and juice and coffee provided upon sitting siren and the breakfast options from the menu were excellent 4. Staff: Amazing staff. Fran and Maria were super friendly and Christina was very helpful and so great to chat with and let me practice my Spanish with her and was also very helpful in making recommendations of where to get food and how to get around. The owner was also helpful in ensuring things were operating well. 5. Location: I really liked the location. Was a nice walk to the beach in one direction and to BodhiYoga Resort in the other direction. I went to the beach at least once every day and to Bodhi several times during my stay for yoga or food or reliable wifi while grabbing a smoothie 6. The Vibe and Jungle feel: I noticed several other hotels in the area that were fancier and more polished but I actually preferred Green Sanctuary because the others seemed a little too sterile for me. Overall was an amazing stay and I plan to visit again!

Olas Verdes Hotel, hotel in Nosara

Set in Nosara, 600 metres from Guiones Beach, Olas Verdes Hotel offers accommodation with free bikes, free private parking, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden.

This was our first trip with a baby - we had our 4 month old daughter with us and stayed here for 8 nights. It was truly exceptional. The staff is so thoughtful, kind, generous, gracious, and helpful. Our baby was in love with them all holding her while we got to eat meals. I am forever grateful to the lovely ladies working the front desk and restaurant - they made our trip so wonderful. Speaking of the meals, wow. Breakfast was awesome and has such a great menu that even being there for 8 days, it never got old. We also had dinner and lunch at the restaurant - also so great. The room was perfect and the free laundry service was so helpful with the baby. We even had a pack n play provided by the place to borrow making our travel even easier. We got to surf everyday with the ease of the ocean right down the epic jungle path. We watched monkeys for hours from our balcony, spent afternoons taking our baby in the pool for the first time, and could enjoy air conditioned naps in the hot afternoon. This will be a trip we hold dear forever as it was our first as parents and Olas Verdes will be remembered as the best possible place to spend it. I cannot recommend this place enough and we will be back for sure.

    The town is very charming with lots of both local, mid range and upscale restaurants. The problem is with the roads. We drove 2 1/2 hours from Playa flamingo down the coast and fully half of that time was on rutted dirt roads. The town itself had ro ases that were worse than rutted with giant potholes sometimes two or 3 feet deep. It made us wish we had a four-wheel-drive which many of the locals drive. They called them quads, which are four wheeled ATVs. We were there in dry season so I can only imagine what happens to the roads in the rainy season. It would not be a pretty sight.

    Costa Rica is a very special country, but what I like best of all in Nosara (Guiones/Pelada) are the people. Both Ticos (Costa Ricans) and expats are among the friendliest, most genuinely helpful and generous, and most laid back folks anywhere. And it is the gorgeous natural beauty and tranquility of this place that must be the cause.

    Nosara is a small town and the area is not very developed.

    Nosara is a small town and the area is not very developed. Driving was somewhat terrifying (more so than the zip lining, to be sure). The nature there is beautiful and preserved. I would recommend staying at a nice resort if you want to go there. There are several and this would have made our experience much better. Since we had a kitchen, we used the grocery store often. It had great products, but was not air conditioned.

    Nosara is definitely a place to go if you like surfing. There are a variety of waves for all types of surfers and the beach is HUGE so there is a ton of room for all surfers. The water is warm and you can body surf, boogie board as well...you really want to be "into the ocean" to be in Nosara...we took beach cruisers from one to the other on the beach since the sand is compacted...that was a lot of fun...and a beautiful ride. People are GREAT in Nosara....we will return.

    Nosara is a gorgeous little village by the beach, but it is fast changing. It is very now americanised, lots of new expensive houses are being built. Restaurants and bars are good, but more expensive than everywhere we have been in CR. Most shops, hotels bars and restaurants charge in $ (although you can pay cash in Colones). I enjoyed Nosara, the Guiones Beach is gorgeous especially at sunset, but I did not feel like I was in CR. I think Samara would have been more what I was looking for.

    More expensive than the average Costa Rican town, has been developing massively in the past few years, the road access is as poor as always though. Beaches are fantastic, restaurant options are amazing (this wasn’t the case a few years ago). The Nomadic Hotel a gem.

    I stayed at several coastal destinations around Costa Rica on this trip, and in hindsight, I am wishing I had just stayed at Selena Nosara the whole time. The beaches were the best I found the location was awesome and just the property in general was amazing. I had everything I was looking for right there from the accommodations to the other excursions I wanted to do. I typically have a rule where I don’t visit any one place twice, however, I may break that rule this time. Staying here, really made the trip for me

    Hotel Boutique Lagarta Lodge has excellent facilities, friendly staff, a great restaurant, good cocktails, and an amazing view. The room was spotless clean with a spacious balcony. The thermal pool was perfect for relaxing and sipping a cocktail while one watches the sunset. The free shuttle to and from the beach was a thoughtful touch. We enjoyed the nature trail, complete with wild monkeys and a mangrove forest. I highly recommend this hotel for a stay in Nosara.

    Very nice boutique hotel, we had a huge room which is great as we travelled as a family. The breakfast was delicious. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. I loved the surf school located directly in the hotel, super convenient. We also loved the swimming pool. They even did our laundry for free, so convenient when you are travelling, highly appreciated. I would love to be back with my family. Thank you Olas Verdes for those few days in paradise !

    We‘ve been there for more than two weeks and extended our stay because we fell in love with this place. If you love design, it's your place to be. It's a stylish, laid back boutique hotel in the heart of nosara (guiones) The owners Luca&Lisa were lovely and prepared delicious breakfast and coffee every morning by themselfes. They have a bar with the best cocktails in town. We’re going to miss this place a lot!

    The free breakfast was the best way to start the day. The room was very well-designed and outfitted. The kitchenette had everything we needed and more - mixing bowls! The pool and lounge area were very secluded, refreshing and clean. The surfboard storage was awesome as you can grab your board and walk to the beach in under 5 minutes. The staff were very quick to respond on whatsapp with help when needed.

    I had the opportunity to stay at Nosara Sunrise B&B and it was a great experience. The rooms were large with traditional Costa Rican decor and private bathroom. The breakfast was super good, typical style, very clean and fresh. Finally, the staff were all professional and very accommodating. A great place to stay when visiting the Nosara area.

    This is a great boutique hotel. Perfect location for accessing the beach and right in front of the good surf. I also liked the shaded property and refreshing pool. The short walk to the center of town was easy. The Destiny restaurant attached to the hotel is amazing. The food there was phenomenal!

    This is a very quirky but beautiful hotel. The grounds and location are so tranquil and relaxing. What I have noticed is more foreigner tourists at Playa Guiones and more Costa Rican tourists in Playa Pelada hotels like this one. The pool is huge and the complementary breakfast was very good.
