Probably the best hotel we stayed at in Costa Rica. Everyone is very kind and helpful, the smallest issues are being quickly resolved.
The pool area is so well designed, we usually don’t use the hotel pools, but here we really enjoyed it.
It’s close to the beach and everything we needed.

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.
Che Nosara absolutely exceeded my expectations. The small hotel had a very cool, personal vibe. The owners pay close attention to their guests to make sure their stay is top notch. The Suite was clean, soft linens and beautifully decorated. I loved that the hotel was adults only so it was really peaceful by the beautiful pool. The bar had the best drinks at a very reasonable price. The mixologist did a better job than most fancy bars in San Francisco and the tapas were to die for. I can't wait to go back again.
This hotel was perfect for my family of 4. The residences are incredibly well appointed and spacious with a full kitchen, dining area and outdoor terrace. We selected the Tropical Garden Grand Residence which has its own private cold plunge, sauna and outdoor shower. The rooftop terrace and pool is a dream and the kids especially loved the breakfasts and activities. All steps from perfect beach and surf. Already booked my return over the Holidays. Thanks Silvestre for an amazing trip :)
Amazing hotel. We traveled with our young family and everything exceeded our expectations. Great staff, great food (especially the included a la carts breakfast every morning), great location as close to the beach as possible in Nosara (a short 4 min walk through a mangrove on a trail). We surfed every day and having Safari Surf onsite made things easy to rent boards. Nice bonus was the free laundry service. Great choice of traveling with kids. Will stay again for sure!
Andrés and his crew were SUPER welcoming! They helped me out with everything from getting a tuk tuk to booking my shuttle for the flight home. It's an awesome place to stay and the room was awesomely cozy and wholesome. Juan Carlos, the surf director was also incredibly awesome and patient with me during my surf lessons. The restaurant attached to the hotel (Destiny) has ridiculously awesome food, as well as awesome staff. Thank you guys for everything!!!
The setting is beautiful and what’s even better is the staff. Everyone that works their is so sincerely happy you are there and will do whatever it takes to make your stay the best it can be. It was like no hotel Iv visited before. The staff are now my friends and I wish them all the best and hope to see them one day again. There is also a walking trail that takes you into the down town area, or to playa palada.
The room was beautiful. The beach access was wonderful, a short jaunt and you could visit either side of the peninsula, one side having walkable, beachside restaurants, the other side a perfect spot to meet our surf instructor. The hotel food was amazing, even the free-breakfast. The staff was able to assist in arranging lastminute surf lessons and Covid testing.
I loved the one night i spent here. It was relaxed, beautiful and spotlessly clean. The staff were really helpful plus its a five minute walk to the beach and also an amazing local restaurant where I ate the best meal I had in Costa Rica - a Thai green curry lol!
First of all the places stayed , Sunset Shack has the most amazing breakfast! Also I love the shower head. The rooms have a style that I like. Off course it’s a close walk to the beach for sunset which at Nosara is like a religious experience.
Fred is an amazing host . he will take you to all the best parts of nosara and make you feel very welcome . I met some wonderful friends in my time here . bikes to use is a great addition we really loved
A surf oasis a few meters away from Guiones!
The rooms are spacious and well equipped and it's nice to have a pool too.
Dave the owner was very easy to reach and helpful during the stay.
Gorgeous, well-appointed boutique hotel nestled on the north end of Playa Guiones, Illuminar is perfectly situated and you can’t beat the private walk to the beach.
