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.

The hotel was so clean, charming, and ideal for our experience! The rooms were gorgeous, the staff was amazing, and the best part was that the cocktails, breakfast, and snacks were something I will be dreaming about for months to come! I can't wait to come back! We don't do yoga but we did surf and the hotel had great/reasonable recommendations for us.

Olas Verdes Hotel, hotel in Nosara

Located in Nosara, a 7-minute walk from Guiones Beach, Olas Verdes Hotel provides accommodations with free bikes, free private parking, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden.

Everything! The reception staff were very welcoming, informative, and helpful. They booked restaurants and excursions for us. They gave us a tour of the facility pointing out all of the amenities we may be interested in. Then they showed us to our rooms. They explained how to use the safe, provided a complimentary stainless steel water bottle, complimentary laundry service, and complimentary breakfast at the wonderful on-site restaurant. Local coffee and organic tea was provided. The entire facility was very clean and tidy. I loved my room. It had a balcony above the pool, at tree canopy height. It was private, quiet. A wonderful place to just sit and enjoy being outside. The bed and bedroom was air-conditioned and very comfortable. The restaurant staff, menu, and food quality were superb! All of the staff were very attentive to our needs, efficient, capable, patient, courteous, friendly, generous, and kind. And it was a short walk to a beautiful beach and glorious sunsets! I highly recommend Olas Verdes!

    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.

    Very beautiful resort in the middle of the jungle not far from the ocean with a clear focus on yoga and wellness. Everything what has to do with yoga is excellent - all the facilities and instructors are perfect. Yoga sessions are held minimum 3 times per day and attract many people staying in Nosara (not essentially at Bodhi Tree itself). If you do not have a car/motorbike you can get a bicycle for free to get around, which I used every day. Are not the best ones and are not looked after properly (very rusty), but worked well for me.

    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

    Dave the owner speaks perfect English and Spanish, and is very knowledgeable about the area. he is very responsive on WhatsApp and even drove to help us get coolant for our engine when we were stranded at 5pm on a holiday during a torrential downpour! the villa could not be more centrally located in Playa Guiones. we walked to the beach to catch sunset almost every night and many restaurants, surf schools and shops. we can't wait to come back!

    The accommodation was perfect. We loved the pool and the chilled atmosphere. Our hosts, Lisa and Luca, were attentive when they needed to be but also left us alone too - perfect. The food was superb, we loved the breakfasts with a local twist and had a superb and very memorable Christmas dinner under the stars. Our whole stay was impossible to fault. The photos are very accurate but don’t do the hotel justice, the reality is SO much better.

    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.

    I loved everything here. It was the perfect costa Rican stay. It felt like a wilderness lodge with spectacular natural grounds and view to the ocean. The pool setting was divine and breakfast remarkableAgnes’ attention to details, aesthetic, and welcoming presence was the icing on the cake. The nearby beach was the most beautiful we have found to date in Costa Rica

    The hotel is next to the Harmony hotel (same hotel chain) so it is in the center, close to the beach, and the service is excellent. Tatiana at the reception provided us with exceptional service. In general the whole staff was courteous. The room is clean, and the food in the restaurant is delicious.

    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.

    I am not a person who complains normally but really think the price isn’t fair for what it is. I am staying at a different hotel now in playa guiones which is much better in all terms and cheaper. Great location but not good value for the price.
