Spectacular

The house is sensational! SO close to the surf, and just the right distance from all the shops and amenities of Nosara (not too close, not too far). The on-site property managers were incredibly helpful. We absolutely loved our stay!

Amazing Home

Beautiful home in Playa Guiones/Nosara! Home was just as described, clean, and comfortably suited for all our needs. We could tell the owners took great pride in the design. The beds were amazingly comfortable and the location was very close to the beach. We highly recommended the home.

It was a lovely house and wonderful to be walking distance to the beach and shops and restaurants. The house had everything we needed. The reason I gave it 2 stars is because while we were there, someone broke in while we were sleeping and went into our bedrooms and throughout the house and stole money out of our children’s wallets, our daughters earrings, and money out of our own wallet. We had every door unlocked downstairs but someone climbed up the balcony via the trees, and came in through the upstairs door. So that was unfortunate and a bit creepy!

Hello Lindsay, hope you are well, this is Francesca from VACATION NOSARA. Thank you for your kind words about the home and its location — we’re very glad to hear you enjoyed those aspects of your stay. We are truly sorry to hear about the incident you described. This is something we take extremely seriously, and it is very concerning to us. The safety and security of our guests is always a top priority. We understand how unsettling this experience must have been, especially as it occurred during the night. While the property is located in a natural, open environment, we always recommend keeping all doors and access points secured, including upper-level entries. That said, we are actively reviewing additional security measures and protocols to further enhance guest safety. We also remain available to support guests in reporting any incidents to the appropriate local authorities. We truly regret that this impacted your stay and appreciate you bringing it to our attention.

Nosara Stay

The house was everything the website says. The house was amazing we had 9 people 4 teenagers & 5 adults with plenty of room. Fast walk to beach & Town, we rented ATV’s for 2 days & took a ATV tour to a waterfall which was a wonderful day. The only regret was taking the trip during the rainy season, it rained a lot & we didn’t have much sun. We stayed for 8 nights 9 days. The roads were very muddy & the walk to town was very muddy & wet while walking through rivers. Plan on getting your feet wet at all times. Overall we had a great trip
