Perfect peaceful stay
Amazing experience at Olas Verdes! The staff was incredibly helpful with any request, large or small. We loved the path to the beach and proximity to town; close enough to walk everywhere but away from the bustle. Delicious, big breakfast. So, so peaceful. Highly recommend!

I love this hotel. It is very close to walk to the beach, just crossing nature ( path), the food was excellent, all the staff was extremely kind and helpful. Rooms are very comfortable. Nice pillows. It is surrounded by nature; this is a paradise for surfers, what else can I say? I want to go back!!

Wonderful staff, great location. Just to clarify….we expected a patio (due to the photos on Expedia) but got a very very narrow balcony (no room for a chair, just standing). But…. retrospect I think we preferred to sit inside with a fan(!) facing the balcony as opposed to sitting outside on the patio.

The responsiveness and friendliness of the staff make this place fabulous. I was only there overnight en route to a retreat but would absolutely go back for a stay. Quick walk to the beach, surf and boogie boards, small pool, small restaurant with amazing food. Perfect for what I needed.

Family vacation mid-January. Hotel is beautiful and staff were very friendly and helpful. Hotel is about as close to the beach as you can get in Nosara. Walk right out of the hotel to the footpath to the beach. The restaurant was excellent. Safari Surf School is right there. Definitely recommend.

From the moment we arrived we fell in love with the people and the hotel in general. The staff is beyond kind and accommodating. The hotel is magical. Very quaint and very welcoming. The place is beautiful! I felt so lucky to stay there. They offer so much to their guests; laundry, refillable water bottles, soaps, coffee, etc.The beach access is impressive. I cannot say enough. If you are thinking of staying on this property do not hesitate! I would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Perfect stay at olas verdes. Our 2 room set up was great as there was plenty of space. I loved how the rooms connected through a shared walkway which was recommended by the hotel prior to our arrival. The staff are all so warm and accommodating. We loved the restaurant on the property as well as the surf school and proximity to the beach.

Great food, friendly staff, 5 min scenic walk to one of the best beaches in the world. Howler monkeys and lizards visit the property - (this is a plus for me). Beds and rooms were comfortable. The roads going in were bumpy but don’t let that discourage you - the property and Nosara as a whole are fantastic. We’ll be back. :)

This is secluded, away from the busier area of the small town. So, we rode bikes into town during the day for lunch, exploring and called a “tuk-tuk” for evenings after dark when traveling to town for dinner. Close to Guiones Beach and totally laid back, which we wanted.
