We had such a lovely stay at Norte Nosara! The staff were very helpful and it was so centrally located. It was perfect! Close to the beach, and right in the middle of town!

Pros:

Ubicación

Cons:

Aire acondicionado y ventilador dejaron de funcionar en medio de la noche y no había a quien contactar para recibir ayuda o en su defecto cambio de habitación. Se nos informó a última hora que recepción no era 24h y el host poco servicial.

Great location and lovely clean property, more of a motel than a hotel.
Pros:

Norte Nosara is located right in town and amazing access to the beach. Rooms are basic and very clean. Things like water pressure and coffee maker are inconsistent or don’t work, but you are so close to everything that it’s not much of a problem. Linens should have been changed during my longer stay, but overall housekeeping is good. It’s quiet despite being in the centre of town. Restaurant is nice and people who run it are lovely.

Cons:

It was not great value for money, although I stayed at high season. The facilities are well maintained but it is not designed for you to stay around hotel - not much space/chairs to lounge if you want to. There is little help during the day - the person at reception is great when you get her but only available 8-4. I asked for a list of restaurants and was told they would send it and never did.

Confortable
Pros:

El hospedaje tiene buenas habitaciones, la cama estaba muy cómoda, me gustó que tuviera mini refri, café para hacer y agua. También el escritorio, y para colgar la ropa. El baño muy amplio.

De noche se escucha un poco el ruido de la calle pero no fue grave. Fácil acceso a la piscina y una caminata de menos de 5 min para llegar a la playa, eso me gusto mucho.

Las dos chicas que atienden la "recepción" fueron muy amables.

Cons:

En general esta bastante bien. Lo que no me gusta en general es que la zona es más cara de lo normal, entonces a veces se siente que el precio que uno paga no da para tanto, en otros países/zonas del país sería mejor el hospedaje vs lo que uno esta pagando.

Pros:

Отель близко к пляжу и хорошая еда в ресторане.

Cons:

это очень дешевое место и соответственно качество. Мебель старая,постель синтетическая . Общий вид уставший и все сделано из самых дешевых материалов. Я не спала только. Было неудобно и неприятно из-за запахов и качества постели. Не соответствует фото.

Un vrai coin de paradis, parfait pour le yoga et le surf, à 3 mn des vagues de Guiones ....!!
Pros:

L hôtel est magnifique, des superbes bugalows modernes et tres propres , au cœur de la végétation ,une piscine avec cascade, parfaite pour l après-surf. Le personnel est au petits soins et très efficace, et les propriétaires absolument adorable. Nous avons aimé aussi, la possibilité de faire du yoga à l hôtel, dans une ambiance très zen, la proximité des restaurants et des commerces, ainsi que la plage de Guiones à 3 mn à pied, pour aller surfer.
Le rapport qualité/prix est en plus imbattable pour un hôtel de cette qualité.
Nous reviendrons sans hésitation dans cet établissement, lors de notre prochain séjour.

Cons:

Absolument rien...

Cute place near the beach
Pros:

Great location near the beach. The room was very clean and smelled amazing. I really liked that they placed an aroma diffuser with a lovely scent after cleaning. Also enjoyed the pool area. There is a coffee machine in the room with good coffee.

Cons:

It would be nice to have mosquito screens on the windows so I could get some fresh air and keep mosquitoes out.
I was also a little worried about the payment through the link they send. It's good to know this before booking.
