Pros:

L’hôtel est idéalement situé à quelques pas de la plage, c’est assez rare à Nosara !
La chambre spacieuse disposait d’un très bel espace extérieur avec cuisine, hamac..
Très belle ambiance et surtout un très bon restaurant! Important de le signaler, car ce n’est pas le cas partout! Bar à cocktail sympa 🍾
L’hôtel a été refait et repris par un nouveau propriétaire depuis quelques mois.
Bon séjour !

Pros:

Wow! The set up at La Negra is excellent;
- Perfect location, on a quiet back street, and as close to the beach and surf breaks as it is possible to get, through a short jungle walk
- Great hospitality - Isabel and the team were really helpful and friendly, easily extending my stay, and create a great vibe
- Excellent surf coaching - Juan Carlos is awesome, and really helped me progress my surfing. I am an infrequent middle aged surfer, and he took me back to basics to work through the proper foundation techniques, with quick progression to help me develop my skills - it gave me a lot of confidence, and clear improvements to my capability - he has a great approach and attitude, and I'd highly recommend booking a block of sessions with him, as that way you will get maximum benefits.
- Great environment, with a relaxing pool area, good rooms, and the adjacent cafe serves excellent breakfast and delicious lunch
Overall, amongst the best places I've stayed, and I definitely plan on returning.

Cozy, comfortable, and an affordable price near the beach!
Pros:

I really enjoyed the pool. It was a perfect cool down after a really hot day. I did laps back-and-forth and I love the atmosphere.. I also came in pretty late for my travels and I was able to do a self check in. They were kind enough to leave me my keys in a lock box that I was able to access no problem.

Cons:

I don’t have anything bad to say.

Lovely hotel near the beach
Pros:

We loved this hotel, great location and close to the beach and great restaurants
Nice pathway down to the beach with great surfing waves. We rented surf boards right from the hotel & took lessons with Juan Carlos who was so helpful! Would highly recommend a lesson with him
The room was clean and there are a lot of great spots to sit by the pool.the pool was very nice. All of the food we had at destiny cade was phenomenal!! Definitely a must to eat here!
Would highly recommend. It was located in a quieter part of town but close walk to everything .
