This place was the cherry on top for our Costa Rican adventure. It was a perfect place to end our trip since it was the nicest hotel we stayed at and they had ALL the amenities and the location was ideal. The food at the restaurant was delicious as well. I cannot wait to go back!

Wow — my family has never experienced such hospitality! This hotel deserves 10+ stars for not only location, cleanliness, comfort and amenities, but the added touches of getting our room ready for our family and celebration of our anniversary with a bottle of wine, included breakfast, complimentary stainless steel water bottles, and complimentary laundry washed, dried and folded for us was impeccable and sets a new standard for superior service. The concierge was able to answer all our questions via WhatsApp which made it easy to explore the area on the go. To boot, the hotel helped us get breakfast to go on our last day because we were flying early. We would come back to Nosara just to spend time at Olas Verdes hotel. Thanks to all who helped make our experience more than memorable for our family!

Great property and staff Dirt roads around the property were difficult to navigate which was probably because we were at the end of the rainy season and it wasn’t under the control of the hotel A golf cart just didn’t work Need an atv or 4 wheel drive car and some Dramamine

Fantastic stay! Family loved it as close as you can get to surf and easy walk or short bike ride to restaurants/shopping. Staff were incredible. Super quiet for sleeping and everything you need right there for rentals (surf, quads, shuttles, etc…). Would stay again without question,

We received a nice room upgrade, staff was friendly and helpful, the in-room coffee was excellent, laundry was convenient, breakfast and juices were tasty. There was some noise from neighborhood construction that was a bit annoying, which is not in the control of the hotel.

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!

What an incredible stay at Olas Verdes! In the quieter southern neighborhood of Guiones Beach, Nosara the property is as beachfront on the Pacific Coast in Costa Rica as you can get to a world class surf break… and man did we luck out! There was a southern swell pumping overhead high waves all week. CR protects its mangrove so there is a buffer of dry forrest/mangrove to the bern, but it is a beautiful trail, and not far. The facilities are terrific, modern and very clean. The staff is warm, very friendly and accommodating. My family stayed in suite 202 which was great for a spouse and 2 young elementary school kids on spring break. Breakfast was included and delicious every morning at El Manglar. We also ate at Beach Dog, El Ruco, Al Chile, Sendero Kitchen and La Ventanita which were close, fresh and surprisingly clean yet great eats. Would 100% recommend!
