Be careful of charges for accessories that are not included, quite expensive, the place is dark at night, this is true for the entire area

One of the most special hotels I've stayed in, we saw so many animals there, iguanas, monkeys, squirrels and more, an excellent beach for surfing with a surfing club on site, the restaurant is excellent for breakfast and dinner, the room was huge and cozy, we were on the second floor so there was less room for animals to enter the rooms. The laundry services were a complete and excellent surprise

The only thing in the room that could be improved in my opinion would be the height of the pillows. They were a bit too big and weren't too comfortable to sleep on.

Amazing and attentive staff. The room was very spacious and we felt very comfortable. There were mosquito nets on every window which was convenient. There's two pools on the property one of them was barely used in our time there and we had it almost to ourselves. There's a private beach access directly from the hotel and it only takes 3 minutes to get to the beach.

We loved everything!

We loved everything about this hotel. We brought our own surf boards and were able to walk out to the beach in the morning and evening for a great surf. They had facilities geared towards surfers. My whole family loved the pool and the enjoying the nature around us.

I can't think of a thing

Oslas Verdes is a beautiful hotel crafted from native hardwood and gorgeous tilework set in the middle of a nature presrrve where one can see iguanas, howler monkeys and native birds cavorting outside your window. The staff are lovely, the service impeccable, there is an onsite restaurant that is fantastic and its a 3 minute walk through the natute preserve to the beach. I highly recommend a stay there.

The bird watching tour was not worth $169.5 for two.

Staff was incredible especially Beatrice and Ines. Location was great if you surf. The restaueant staff is super nice too. Whole hotel represents the vibe of Nosara very well.

Maybe it would have been nice to get more recommendations and ideas what tours and activities they’re offering from the reception. The staff at the bar could have been a bit more attentive, but the food was amazing. But everything here is critical on a high high level.

We are a well traveled family but this hotel is just amazing. I stayed with my daughter for 5 days and everything was just perfect. Hardly saw any hotel wich is so nice surrounded by nature and we observed so many animals, howling monkeys everywhere. It is outstanding how much that hotel cares about the environmental outcome. The staff is very friendly and the laundry service a big plus. We loved to drive around with the bikes. The breakfast is lovely and the walk through the jungle directly to beach observing crabs and frogs, couldn’t get enough.

Breakfast could be more generous.

Having to leave!

What an AMAZING hotel! The location is perfect, just a 1 min walk to the beach through stunning jungle on a private path and a 5 min walk to shops and restaurants. Everything about the hotel was perfect for us, the room was beautiful and we loved the private outside space to sit and watch monkey, birds, iguanas & geckos while enjoying a nice cold beer. Both pools were very welcome after a busy day exploring and the food was delicious. I think the best thing about the hotel was all the staff! They were so friendly, always happy to chat, very knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble. It’s clear they all enjoy their jobs as they were always smiling, happy and laughing with each other giving the hotel a very friendly and relaxed feel. Ines and Nikole on the front desk in particular went above and beyond helping with restaurant suggestions and bookings even sending me menu’s from a number of local restaurants so I could check there would be something my fussy son would eat! Not to mention telling us the best place to go to find local handmade souvenirs.

Everything was good, Beatriz from the front desk, received us with a Pura Vida welcome. We really love this place.

Wish I could stay longer!

Everything. The location of this hotel is ideal. You walk through a lovely jungle for 3-5 mins to access the beach, and the walk was one of the highlights of my one-week stay at this hotel! The service at this hotel was superb. Really, I’ve stayed at many high end hotels but services at this one by far is the friendliest and most genuine. The staffs were always there to help with anything I needed. The rooms are not fancy but they are more than functional, spacious, and comfortable. The hotel is boutique so not too crowded or noisy. I checked out some other hotels nearby (some have higher star ratings) but I still found Olas Verdes the best and nicest overall. The food and drinks at the onsite restaurant were also excellent. Love the vibe sitting at the bar.

The rooms had a layout that were facing other rooms so privacy of the bathroom and bedroom were solved by drawing the curtains which didn’t allow for views from those rooms. The living room had the best scenery which is fantastic.

Proximity to the beach and forest , and away from the noise of downtown. Bikes are available to easily cruise into town. Pool and surfboard rentals are very nice. The restaurant on site is very good.

Awsome

Bar prices are extremely expensive, closure time early. Makes you think on where to go for a drink on a quiet night.

Loved the place, great location, walking distance to everything in Guiones. Bikes available are a must try to move easier and faster around the area. 4WD recommended as roads are not in great condition. Would go back!

Lovely boutique hotel: very good atmosphere, you can tell by seeing the staff interact and having fun. Big apartment-like rooms, excellent food prepared with love, and great wildlife watching.

Does not apply. Everything was wonderful!

Everything! The reception staff were very welcoming, informative, and helpful. They booked restaurants and excursions for us. They gave us a tour of the facility pointing out all of the amenities we may be interested in. Then they showed us to our rooms. They explained how to use the safe, provided a complimentary stainless steel water bottle, complimentary laundry service, and complimentary breakfast at the wonderful on-site restaurant. Local coffee and organic tea was provided. The entire facility was very clean and tidy. I loved my room. It had a balcony above the pool, at tree canopy height. It was private, quiet. A wonderful place to just sit and enjoy being outside. The bed and bedroom was air-conditioned and very comfortable. The restaurant staff, menu, and food quality were superb! All of the staff were very attentive to our needs, efficient, capable, patient, courteous, friendly, generous, and kind. And it was a short walk to a beautiful beach and glorious sunsets! I highly recommend Olas Verdes!

Our bedroom didn't get cool enough, but that's our fault for not getting used to the heat.

This was our first trip with a baby - we had our 4 month old daughter with us and stayed here for 8 nights. It was truly exceptional. The staff is so thoughtful, kind, generous, gracious, and helpful. Our baby was in love with them all holding her while we got to eat meals. I am forever grateful to the lovely ladies working the front desk and restaurant - they made our trip so wonderful. Speaking of the meals, wow. Breakfast was awesome and has such a great menu that even being there for 8 days, it never got old. We also had dinner and lunch at the restaurant - also so great. The room was perfect and the free laundry service was so helpful with the baby. We even had a pack n play provided by the place to borrow making our travel even easier. We got to surf everyday with the ease of the ocean right down the epic jungle path. We watched monkeys for hours from our balcony, spent afternoons taking our baby in the pool for the first time, and could enjoy air conditioned naps in the hot afternoon. This will be a trip we hold dear forever as it was our first as parents and Olas Verdes will be remembered as the best possible place to spend it. I cannot recommend this place enough and we will be back for sure.

I had to keep the curtains of my room shut and bathroom also the whole time as gardeners /staff were walking right by the window. There was no privacy. The pool area is not large and right by reception and restaurant so lots of traffic going . Not very relaxing. Other pool had a construction site right next to it. The Wi-Fi in my bedroom didn’t work at all, I had to be in the kitchen area.

Loved the overall atmosphere. The restaurant was really nice, lots of choice and super helpful and kind staff. Delicious food. The front desk team were also very friendly and helpful. It’s very near the beach. My room was spacious and comfortable. Nice bed, linen, towels.
