    Stuart and Jenn and their magnificent staff keep this place in excellent shape. Coffee is brewed by the time the sun rises, making it such a joy to grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the sunrise at one of the most beautiful beaches in the area, to then come back to a freshly prepared breakfast.

    Holistic stay in paradise for the soul to rebound

    It's best to have a car as depending on taxis or gracious lifts is a bit precarious and also becomes very expensive. It's not great for surfing but there are other beaches accessible by car where it's better.

    Amazing property with super helpful and friendly owners. Arrival in paradise. Amazing and healthy food put together by the owner who is a nutritionist and yoga teacher. The property goes directly onto the beach. Wild life such as howler monkeys, macaws, the blue morpheus butterfly and other exotic birds fly around for easy observation. Early morning yoga was offered and it was nourishing. The other guests were super friendly and even as a solo traveler it was easy to connect during dinner or cocktail hour. It's secluded and when you arrive after taking a long bumpy road, you truly have arrived in paradise. The owner helped me organize my Corcovado trip and other excursions. They are very knowledgeable about the country and the region. I absolutely loved my stay and will be back again!

    I had such an amazing stay at Nereus in Puerto Jiménez! From the moment I arrived, the hospitality was incredible. They immediately asked about my dietary restrictions and made sure I had plenty of delicious vegan protein options—every meal was absolutely amazing. The rooms were super cute and cozy, and the pool was a great place to relax. The beach is just a short walk away, with soft sand and stunning views. The yoga space is one of the most beautiful I’ve practiced in, and daily yoga sessions added such a peaceful rhythm to my stay. The property is gorgeous, with monkeys playing in the trees and so much natural beauty all around. The owners were truly delightful—warm, welcoming, and attentive. I really enjoyed my time here and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. If you get the chance to stay at Nereus, take it!

    Nothing, everything about the property was great.

    Unique location and super friendly owner and staff. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome, even backed a special cake for my birthday. Morning yoga class inclused as well as a delicious breakfast. Lunch and dinner at very reasonable prices. Location is remote, which is what we were looking for, if you are looking fpr party central this isn’t for you. Amazing almost empty beach a 3 minute walk from our cabin, amazing wild life. If we return to Osa Peninsula we will definitely stay there again.

    There wasn't anything to grumble about!

    I have never been to a hotel before where the owner does a quick haircut and mends your bag on your first day. Thank you for looking after my husband when he felt frail. I love the room, the chairs. The forest location. That there was no artificial lighting in front of our room late at night ...the dark was a joy and seeing the sunrise through the trees The home cooking, the coffee the little seawater pool, the wild beach. The caring environment, lovely staff. The howler,the macaws , the things that went bump on our roof! Its a little different. The Golfe Dulce is away from the tourist trail and is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen

    The Osa Peninsula is a jungle after all, therefore if you tend to attract mosquitos take some bug lotion and long pants for the evenings (or travel with a more juicy friend). Nereus does a great job of having fans that keep the bugs away, and I only got a few bites, no more than traveling in the US in similar environments.

    The location is amazing with comfortable rooms (AC), a salt water pool and a protected beach steps away. We loved getting to know our fellow travelers while relaxing at the pool or beach. Additionally Nereus' friendly staff were able to provide local trips in the area, we went on a tour of the Corcovado National Park on a standard tour. The staff was able to customize days fishing and paddle boarding with the Captain Tom, who was able to tell us about everything around us. Their onside Massage Therapist/Yoga instructor, was there when we returned to help provide additional relaxation and services after our days of adventure. The food is excellent, they provide a large quantity of locally sourced food for delicious family style meals. We had a wonderful poke bowl / sashimi from that day's catch that would rival any sushi restaurant. The meals are served so you can pick your favorites and easily accommodate those with diet restrictions. Their staff is amazing and we can't wait to return.
