Absolute bliss

Pros: This place was heaven, the rooms were good sized and very comfy, lovely aesthetic and interiors throughout, great pool to lounge around if you don't fancy the beach and a delicious free breakfast each morning. The staff went over and above each time we had any requests, you could easily contact them via WhatsApp and they replied instantly and were always very friendly whenever we spoke to them. You get access to slightly discounted rates for yoga/breathwork classes at the Harmony Hotel across the road and the location was perfect to head to the beach or access any of the local surf schools. We really didn't want to leave this sanctuary.

Cons: Absolutely nothing, it was perfect.

Good stay in Nosara with some space for improvement

Pros: Good location near the beach, pool located in the nice garden, a good selection of various types of breakfast, on site restaurant accesible through the day from breakfast till dinner. Room was ok, we appreciated basic kitchen equipment to prepare fruits for kids.

Cons: Nets in the windows had holes and need to be repaired. Weird system in the windows instead of glass allowed a lot of noice from outside. The palm above the building shall be maintained as leaves are banging into the roof during night winds and it is almost impossible to sleep. Quality and selection of sweet breakfast shall be improved - the granola was nor granola but a ton of sesame and french toast was burnt and not good at all - quality selection for kids like pancakes is missing especially for longer stay. Reception is almost not present all the time, but reachable via WhatsApp.
