The Nomadic Hotel, hotel in Nosara

The Nomadic Hotel is centrally located in Playa Guiones, Nosara, Costa Rica within a 5 minute walk to the surf point and beach. Enjoy complimentary breakfast every morning.

I loved that the included breakfast was made fresh with quality ingredients. I also enjoyed the daily included yoga. The employees were all very friendly (and so were the other guests!)

Green Sanctuary Hotel, hotel in Nosara

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

Absolutely loved the place. Cute little gardens between the apartments. Place was clean and to my surprise pretty specious. Breakfast was just a nice plus. I really loved the deck for yoga which really is between the top of trees. The pool area was quiet and we were there almost all the time alone which was also very nice. It felt like it is there only for us :)

    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.

    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.

    We stayed for 4 nights with our 3 year old and loved it! The most comfortable stay we had during our tour of Costa Rica! The beds were so comfy and the room was lovely and clean and modern. The owners were so helpful during our stay and Jen recommends us lots of great restaurants in the area and to drive to. They were happy to help with anything any time but also gave us space and privacy. We loved swimming in the pool every afternoon and chilling in the hammocks on our balcony. We would love to return here one day for longer!

    The room was very comfortable, the bed king size (actually there were two king beds in my room, and still space to throw a mat on the floor and stretch). The closets allow for hanging my work clothes, the bathroom ample, with enough light to shave comfortably. It also had a safe that fits a laptop. The hosts Joe and his wife were super-nice, a treat to talk with, and the breakfast was amazing! Lots of fresh, ripe fruit, non-processed juices, good coffee, breads to choose from, Costa Rican "gallo pinto", just excellent.

    Staff were amazing! The owner was very helpful, kind, and funny. Rooms were clean and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Beautiful jungle environment with an organic farm. The pool has an incredible view and there are tons of activities for guests to participate. Playa Guiones is close by for surfing, swimming, and relaxing. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend to anyone.

    Huge apartment with everything we needed for a family of five with young children. The owner manager welcomed us and was available for anything we needed. We loved walking out onto the Main Street of the village full of restaurants and shops. But the reason you come to Nosara is the beach, and Playa Guiones is simply amazing. Jumping in the pool at this villa completes your perfect beach day.

    living hotel is total paradise! Very peaceful space to relax and hang out. Feels like a resort without all the people and centrally located. A shuttle picked us up from Liberia airport and we never needed a car. Short walk to the beach and restaurants and not a bad meal was had. This was my first taste of Costa Rica and it was a delightful stay!

    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.
