Descanso inigualable
Pros:

El lugar es realmente espectacular. El hotel es precioso, con instalaciones muy bien cuidadas y un entorno natural increíble que transmite mucha paz. Está ubicado en una zona más residencial, lo que lo hace muy tranquilo, pero a la vez relativamente cerca de todo.
Hay senderos que te llevan caminando a la playa y el centro de Nosara también queda a corta distancia.
El personal es especialmente destacable: todos muy amables, cercanos y siempre dispuestos a ayudar. Eso hace una gran diferencia en la experiencia.

Cons:

Hay algunos detalles que, de ajustarse, elevarían mucho la estadía. En nuestra habitación tuvimos bastantes hormigas pequeñas durante varios días. Recién el último día nos facilitaron insecticida, pero sería ideal que esto se gestione de manera preventiva durante la limpieza diaria.

Por otro lado, el desayuno es un punto a mejorar. Si bien es preparado en el momento, las opciones son muy limitadas y repetitivas — prácticamente lo mismo todos los días, sin mayor posibilidad de elección. Se agradecería más variedad y flexibilidad (por ejemplo, poder elegir distintos acompañamientos o contar con opciones como pan, jugo, yogurt).

Pros:

We were in Nosara for yoga and beach. It’s a great location for both. Bodhi is 2 minute walk beaches are close but less ideal to walk to. Property,staff and food were amazing!!

Cons:

I would recommend an eye mask for sleeping. The rooms are set up to allow light in during the day so you do get some light from the beautiful uplighting. It was not a big deal for us but a consideration.

Will stay here or stop by every time we come to Nosara!
Pros:

We have stayed at the White Palms before in Nosara and we LOVE it! The staff is wonderful, the breakfast is very good, clean and simple but delicious. The grounds are the best with two waterfalls and all the greenery it is lovely! We can't say enough good things about this hotel. Right next to Bohdi Tree and I would choose it over Bohdi every time. Smaller and more cozy with easy access to Nosara. Very quiet and an easy walk to the beach.

Cons:

Nothing needed to be improved.

Cons:

The hotel front desk was unattended when I arrived and I had to wait for two hours until staff arrived to let me check into my room. I had a reservation prior to arriving.
