5/5 Excellent

"My family of 4 (me, husband & two teen boys ages 15 & 13) had a wonderful & relaxing stay at Olas Verdes. It was everything we wanted. It’s not too big, so it’s not crowded. There were times we questioned if we were the only ones staying there. The food was amazing with homemade breads, etc. & breakfast is included. We left the hotel a few times to eat in-town, but felt the food at Olas Verdes was the best. The staff was very warm, friendly & attentive, but not overbearing. Anything we needed was addressed within 5 minutes. Boogie boards & bikes are included & there are surf lessons on-site for a fee. The beach was a scenic 5-minute walk from the hotel. We had the “2 bedroom apartment”, which was really 2 one-bedroom apartments with one on top of the other. Each one had a small kitchen & one had a full fridge. The entrances were separate. It worked great for us given we have teenagers, but something to consider if you have smaller children. It felt like an airbnb w the amenities of a hotel. AC is only in the main bedrooms, not in the living rooms. That wasn’t a problem for us. Laundry service was included as well, which was a huge plus. When we return to Nosara in the future, we will absolutely stay here again."

"Hideaway Hotel is a wonderful gem in Samara. From the moment we walked in the staff treated us as top-notch guests. Breakfast options were excellent and there is a beautiful beach in walking distance. Rooms are spacious, air-conditioning is ice cold, the water is hot and WiFi is fast. There’s a little pool on property that we did not swim at because we chose to go to the beach. Pool looked clean and nice just a few feet from outdoor breakfast. If you drive three minutes up the road, there is an even more gorgeous beach Playa Carrillo. Go there! – In the low season there’s virtually nobody on the beach. A brief drive into town and there are great dining options. "

PLAYA AVELLANAS TREE HOUSE with AC, TVs, WiFi, MAID & PAID BEACH ACCESS

5/5 Excellent

Worth it.

"Really enjoyed this tree house. Ben was a great host! He was very responsive to our questions and had great tips for what to do in the area. The actual house comfortably slept the four of us and had ample room for us to lounge and enjoy the weather. I had a great time traveling in Costa Rica, and this location was my favorite!"

"This is the best place to stay in this area of Nosara! Beautiful grounds, peaceful atmosphere and aesthetic, many breakfast options included with the stay. Included yoga classes led by experienced and excellent teachers, cruiser bikes were fun to ride, and the longer pool hours are much appreciated. We loved our stay and plan to be back. Would love if in-room coffee was replenished daily with housekeeping services. "
