Our host Drew was outstanding! The houses were phenomenal. Highly recommend this home- perfect location, safety, beautiful gardens, clean interior, a bonus rancho space and 3rd kitchen outdoors.
We had a great stay in Nosara - 8 of us in total with 5 kids and the property fit us perfectly. The outdoor spaces are fantastic. Life revolved around the pool and the beach, which is a short walk through the trees and we had easy access via golf carts to restaurants, shops, and all that Nosara has to offer. Drew, the house manager, was terrific - responsive, helpful, and great with local recommendations. We would definitely stay again!
Excellent stay overall. The house was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and very well equipped. Everything was thoughtfully arranged, making the stay easy and relaxing. The host was responsive and helpful throughout. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.
It’ a perfect gem, especially if you’re traveling with two families that need separate space. Everyone was delightful to work with, we will be back for sure!
The property was amazing! So beautiful, spacious and full of nature. I loved the gathering space of the outdoor kitchen, the covered sitting area and the gorgeous pool. Housekeeping (Rosie and Anna) were wonderful, as well as the property manager. My only negative was the poor water pressure for the showers in the casita and pool area.
Great sized property well suited for larger groups. The outdoor living with the pool, outdoor kitchen & dining and loft yoga studio were excellent. Plenty of rooms, bathrooms and space, with good quality AC throughout to escape the heat for a good nights rest.

We are so happy you enjoyed your time at Las Brisas! Pura Vida and come back soon.
The house was amazing and in the best location! The Ranchero was a wonderful place to eat and hang out in the evenings. The property manager was easy to get in touch with and very helpful in planning various parts of our vacation. I would love to stay here again.
Thank you for an amazing stay. The location is excellent, only a few minutes from Playa Guinoes. The houses were very clean and the beds very comfortable. The housekeeping and gardening staff were very friendly.

Grateful for Las Brisas
It was a wonderful trip. Location and layout were great. Wish the speakers would have been working as requested/promised, but things happen.
We loved our stay at Las Brisas! We found that the interior areas were cool and comfortable, and the exterior living spaces were beautiful and very well equipped. Cooking fish we caught that morning in the outdoor kitchen while kids played in the pool- totally met our expectations! We loved the visitors! Monkeys swinging overhead, iguanas peering at us in the pool, a magpie who ate out of my daughter’s hand! Drew was very responsive and Rosie was a delight! She gently corrected and improved our children’s Spanish with conversation and was so helpful! Location is perfect! We loved being far from the busy high road and close to the beach and restaurants. Just about everything was walkable. We felt safe the whole time. We had one bathroom that the shower head wouldn’t stay in place, I wouldn’t even consider it an inconvenience, just let to some very wet bath mats… Will definitely book again!
The host was attentive if and when we had a couple of issues. We had to go searching for cutlery and dishes which were all in the poolside kitchen. Would recommend having some in the main kitchen! Stronger rope to hold the swinging chairs is necessary. One broke with someone in it. A happy week there overall!

Perfect compound oasis very close to beach
las Brisas is a fantastic rental in the Nosara/ playa guiones area. We had a group of 8 surfer teens and it was the ideal location for everyone to be able to spread out and come and go to the break and surf shops in n their own time. Highly recommend!
Everyone was very friendly!
Thank you Eduardo

We are so happy that you enjoyed our hike alone away from home!!! Come back anytime.
Las Brisas exceeded our expectations in every way! We were two families with three children ages 7-12. The layout with two separate living quarters with the combined outdoor living space was more than ideal! The pool was perfect for the kids, and they loved playing chess and ping pong. The location in Playa Guiones is just the right distance to and from the beach and restaurants. Nosara is an amazing area, and staying at Las Brisas will not disappoint! We look forward to visiting again.

Everything you could possibly wish for and more...
Literally the most perfect house in the most perfect vacation spot imaginable... Heaven on earth! Beautifully decorated and appointed (your biggest decision will be which of the many hammocks to use for your nap). A minute walk from the beach, 30 seconds from the delish Blue Dog Cafe (loads of vegan options), and right next door to wonderful surfing instructors. I cannot recommend this highly enough.

Thanks for your gracious review. We try hard to update the house whenever possible and are going to be adding some landscaping, new bedroom windows and a new BBQ grill. We hope to see you again soon.
Las Brisas is in a fantastic spot, walkable to surf schools, restaurants and the beach. Our extended family of 9 was super comfortable with the property layout and amenities. The grounds are natural jungle and we saw different animals come through each day, from birds to iguanas and howler monkeys to coatimundis! Our concierge Ed was amazingly accommodating and the services arranged (cleaning, laundry, chef) were delivered by lovely local professionals. We would definitely visit Las Brisas again.
This is a beautiful property and perfect for our family of 11. We had so much fun, saw iguanas, monkeys and pizotes! The rooms and beds were comfortable, AC worked amazingly. Perfect short walk to playa guiones where we surfed twice a day! Only downside is the construction noise going on, lots of building of new homes etc. I’m sure this is good for the economy so we just rolled with it!
Spacious property in a nice tropical setting. Ample room for our family of 8. Wonderful outdoor space with gorgeous pool and fully stocked kitchen to relax and enjoy family gatherings. Daily groundskeeper Antonio, that maintained the pool and beautiful lush plants all around the property. Rosie, the housekeeper, came three times during our stay to do our laundry and freshen up the living quarters. Karina, the property manager, was wonderful! Always pleasant and quick to respond to all our needs and inquiries. It was our first visit to Costa Rica and we can’t wait to return again! Pura Vida
perfect property for multi family/ friend vacation. Plenty of communal space as well as privacy. Property manager did not have the pool floats at the home upon arrival as we had discussed. Also they did not respond to my water request. Finally delivered water on third day after request. Management could and should be better.

Hello Janet.
Thank you for your review.
Our house managers do their very best to answer all client requests in a timely manner. We apologize about the delay in getting water. However, our managers let us know that many of your requests were cancelled after they procured what you had asked for, including lessons, appointments and even the pool floats (which we generally do not make available to guests). It’s not cool to leave a bad review about people who are working hard to make your stay as easy as possible if you do not extend the same respect to them.
The property is fantastic and really well laid out for a big group. Our property manager was very responsive and proactive in everything she did. We booked a private Chef for lunch and one dinner and we booked private yoga at the property for multiple sessions. Everything was fantastic and the property was secluded yet accessible and within walking distance of everything you need and we got grocery delivery from the grocery store and walked to surfing lessons every day. The monkeys are definitely something to adjust to in the mornings but it's all part of the package of staying in the jungle while staying on the beach essentially. We would stay there again with our full family or another group of friends. Highly recommend.

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location
A pretty big disappointment.
The property has potential but sadly doesn't live up to it.
When we arrived, we noticed the deck by the pool was very unstable, rotted wood. It can be very dangerous so please be aware if you are planning to bring small children or older adults. We informed the property manager of this and he said they were planning to fix it in the coming years (?) We had a few stubbed toes on our week there.
There were many small issues/annoyances, like the outdoor shower was broken (didn't drain), pool lights broken, toilets/plumbing were awful (the property manager will say that is par for the course in Nosara but it is not, we've stayed at many other places there). LOTS of ants, in the showers, bathrooms, all over the deck that we had planned to do yoga on. There were dirty razors and bottle caps left in the shower. On Semana Santa (weeks around Easter) the water ran out every night from around 7pm-10am the next morning.
A large disturbance is the construction in the neighborhood that started early and continued for most of the day. If you choose to rent this property I would recommend looking into that before renting.
Be sure to update the amt of guests your bringing, as they will have their staff count and report back and charge you. We had a couple last minutes guests and we were charged.
Nosara is a great place, but this house and property manager are way below par. You can do better!

Hello Margaret,
Thank you for your feedback. As a guest, you were a pretty big disappointment as well.
As you correctly state in your review, we do count the guests staying at our home, and charge rates accordingly. We do not appreciate it when guests lie to us as you did, and trick us by bringing more guests than stated on the rental agreement. And even despite your bringing more guests than you told us about, we reduced the extra guest fee when you asked, as a good will gesture.
Nosara is growing quickly, and the location of our home is one of the best in Guiones. Because of this, there is quite a bit of construction in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, pure peace and quiet is only found up in the mountains these days, but if you choose to stay up there, then you are not walking distance to the beach. You had options when choosing a house, and construction is a known fact in Guiones these days. That is not our fault, nor is there anything we can do about that.
We have been renting our home in Nosara for over 10 years and have had only excellent reviews. Our house manager is a favorite among guests and our staff are the trusted keepers of our home when we are not there. We are sorry you had a bad experience at Las Brisas. You are in the extreme minority and hope your future stays in Nosara are not with us.
