This is more than a weekend villa of the owner than a hotel. Bad service. American mass hotel.
Cons:

Very disturbing… they were just not prepared for our arrival.
No breakfast options. Weak service, rather… no service at all.
They put full my mailbox of rubbish US promotions of thanksgiving turkeys. I asked them 3 times to stop it but they dont care the guests.

Pros:

I found the room quiet, i slept well, and the dehumidifier in the bathroom was sufficient to cool and dry the room, i did not even have to use the AC.
Overall good value for money for Nosara if you have a car.

Very unique property, and a screened hut with the rain was magical, although you had to keep quiet.
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and being a fight training gym, you're definitely able to get your fitness needs and if you want a workout. The grounds are beautiful and you do feel secluded.

Cons:

Although secluded, if you're in your own Cabana, you are on top of your next-door neighbor. Given that these are only screened in, it can make feelings, secluded a little bit of a miss.

Unique stay with comfy accommodations and great staff
Pros:

Jungle's Edge was perfect for our girls surf trip to Nosara! We did not realize how expensive Nosara is, so were happy to find affordable lodging near Playa Guiones, and we took a tuktuk every day to the beach. We enjoyed our Bamboo suite with 2 rooms and kitchenette, comfy beds, and David, the owner, and his staff were all very friendly and responsive and made our stay enjoyable. The pizza at the restaurant was delicious! We were also able to take Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai classes at the training gym, an unexpected offering for the jungle.

Cons:

Everything in Nosara is expensive, so it would have been nice to have more affordable options at the Jungle's Edge restaurant since it's more of a traveler's spot than a luxury stay. I think free drip coffee would be a nice touch, and surfboard rental, yoga, the cold plunge, and all classes at the gym were only available for additional fees.

Amazing time at Jungles Edge
Pros:

Love love love! Beautiful and big hotel, yoga retreat at the number 1 resort Bodhi Tree can be provided at a fraction of the price. Jiu jitsu classes, amazing pool, bar and pool table etc. Owner David was extremely kind and accommodating. They have amazing food & coffee, and parties on Friday, while still maintaining a peaceful and quiet stay. As a solo traveler I felt safe. Thank you Jungles Edge! Will come back.

I’ll be back! And I’ll invite my friends :-)
Pros:

Great location with a great price and a lot of amenities. We were trying to be budget minded in Nara, which can be quite difficult but this place had rooms that were available at a price we could afford plus a pool, an open restaurant, lounge, community area, a gym, Jujitsu area. Quite diverse lots of offerings. I was able to get a Surf lesson and rent a board and get transportation all in one location. Loves the staff and the owner!

Cons:

Truthfully, only one inconvenience came up while we were there, but everything was handled with such grace and care. The owner made amends for any possible inconvenience that could have arisen so truthfully, it felt like a complete non-issue. Nothing is perfect and all you want is a place to Make on their promises and Jungles Edge absolutely did, 1000%

Good value for money.
Pros:

I enjoyed my stay, it's good value for money compared to some of the other hotel options. In terms of location it is fine, it's not far to walk into Guinos or to the beach, but it's so easy to get tuk-tuk's to go anywhere quickly. Good air-con in the room, good wi-fi, there's a large area for exercise etc, at night it is pretty quiet. It's close to Bodhi Tree as well and there's lots of options there. A solid 8/10 for me.

Cons:

There was nothing too concerning. If you're choosing this thinking it's a luxury option, you might be disappointed. This is a good option for easy going tourists. It is well run, staff were generally quite helpful.

Nice, solid place to stay
Pros:

Friendly staff and nice coworking space. Pool was also very nice. The pizza happy hour was nice and tasty too. I didn't use the gym but I liked having workout equipment there in case I wanted to use it too.

Cons:

It's a little far from the beach and town, we needed to drive our rental car down to get to anything, although it was only a few minutes. As with everything in Nosara the drinks/food are way more expensive than I'd expect too.
