Spacious Modern Home w/pool in gated community
Great place in the middle of everything. We really enjoyed the stayed with the family.

Casa Lapa 2
We had a wonderful stay at Pia’s place. Her parents, Gabby and Federico, were great hosts and responsive to all requests. We stayed for 3 months and got to know the area, many of the neighbors, neighborhood dogs, and establishments in Carrillo. The place is in a very convenient location. It’s a walkable distance to everything in Carrillo y la playa. The adjacent forest is typically filled with howler monkeys, iguanas, and a diversity of birds. The house and pool were great. They needed regular maintenance as everything does in this environment, but the owners were typically right on it. Recommended accommodation.

Luxe Modern Villa w/ pool yard at premium location
Wonderful location within walking distance to the beach and to local restaurants. The house was spacious and had a nice shaded pool and patio. The host was hard to get ahold of prior to our arrival, however, we had much better communication once we got to town. The house had plenty of room for a large group— the downstairs bedroom had two bunk beds that slept four people, the second bedroom had a queen size bed and a bunk bed, and the master bedroom had a king size bed. The hosts provided a safe, an alarm and a guard at night during evening hours which helped us feel safe. The design of the house is modern and simple. We loved our stay and would return again.

Casa Luna, gated community steps from the pool
We had a wonderful stay at Casa Luna. It was very clean, well equipped, and very comfortable inside and out. Sitting on the porch in the morning was so relaxing. Beautiful trees and flowering shrubs, birds singing, and cooling shade. It is literally a two minute walk to the beautiful pool just across the way. A very convenient spot to go to the beach...Playa Blanca, Playa Negra, and Playa Avenella a short drive. Several very good restaurants just down the road. We found everyone to be so welcoming and helpful during our time in Junquiall. We are hoping to get back to Costa Rica soon and would be very lucky if we are able to stay at Casa Luna on our next trip. Thank you Georgina!

Tropical Ocean View Villa in Playa Garza
Erin & Peter are great host, they are great communicating if anything happens or needs to be addressed. House is stunning with a priceless view of the beach. About a ten minute ride into Nosara. You can tell Erin & Peter care about their tenants and that is worth a lot when traveling. Highly recommend!

El Sol Y La Luna
Un lugar para desconectarse de todo, ver el amanecer, los atardeceres y las noches con luna hacen que uno pierda el son del tiempo. No ibamos de vacaciones, fuimos mas bien por trabajo, pero aun asi logramos que la naturaleza nos sacara un poco de la rutina. Exc internet para trabajar Todo estuvo muy bonito

Stunning beach home with pool, gym & tennis
Excellent place to spend vacation time, quiet and peaceful. Loved the family time spent. The house is very well equipped and maintained. Liked very much that kitchen and dining space are separate from the dormitories. Kitchen has very good appliances which makes meal preparation real easy. Don’t need to bring a lot of food along with you since there is a very complete supermarket nearby. There are beautiful beaches nearby within driving distance Simon is an excellent host who keeps proactive communication. Shared swimming pool was excellent to relax and cool off. Definitely worth going back sometime.

Casa Sámara
What an awesome place! My family and I stayed in this beauty for 17 days and it was simply amazing. The pictures are good, but even better in person. The views are simply breathtaking. The condo was very clean and well equipped with everything to make you feel right at home. The beds and furniture were comfy. We will definitely be back and stay at Maria's! Pura Vida

Rancho RachMare in Playa Coyote, a Beach Home!
Pura vida at its max. Pure relaxation, comfort, safety. Zeidy’s food absolute perfection, the kids kept saying it wasn’t even real, calling it dream food. Pool is bigger than what the pictures show, beach wonderful, restaurant down the road a neat little touch for a dinner. We got horses and massages right at the house. The team is fantastic and Jose was wonderful to line it all up. Our private driver that Jose arranged was just wonderful and accommodating to any needs. We would give 10 stars if we could, just like other reviews. Stay here. Or don’t, which will clear up more space in the calendar for us to come back :) :)

Down by the Sea, beachfront Studio - Apartment
The studio by the sea is wonderful, serene and beautiful. It's steps from the beach, surrounded by lush nature and very comfortable. The space has all the amenities needed to enjoy your stay, well appointed kitchen, bath, linens, beach towel. It's clean and tranquil. Heike and Hans are super friendly, helpful and knowledgable about the area & Costa Rica in general. They were so kind to accomdate our dogs, give them treats, water and lots of love. When we return to Coyote, we will definitley visit with them again.

La Huella del Caracol. Ocean front.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Drei traumhafte Monate in diesem wunderschönen Haus! Die Ruhe war himmlisch und die Lage direkt am Meer unschlagbar - fast täglich sind wir schwimmen gegangen. Die Aufteilung des Hauses war perfekt für uns. Und das Privileg in so einem Haus zu wohnen war für uns aussergewöhnlich. Danke Roxana. Als Gastgeberin warst du sehr aufmerksam, freundlich und hast alles wunderbar organisiert. Diese fantastischen Wochen werden unvergesslich bleiben und wir wollen gerne wiederkommen!

Rustic Casa Naranja (1 Bdrm) 5mins Walk to Beach!
Todo estuvo bien ! Coincide con la discripcion y las fotos la cocina full equipada lugar muy tranquilo y esta cerca de todo lo que necesitas

Casita Arena y Mar
Excellent. Nous avons passé un très bon séjour chez Hans, qui est avec Daniela très réactif et propose toujours de vous aider. La maison est comme sur les photos, une maison de plage SUR la plage de Sámara, donc idéalement placée, avec une supérette en face, LA poissonnerie de Sámara a un paté de maison et un restaurant de plage à 50m. Et le bruit des vagues pour s'endormir, nous reviendrons c'est certain. Merci mille fois Hans & Daniela !

**garden apartments** 300 mts from PELADA beach
Having stayed in Nosara for several months, I can wholeheartedly recommend this Airbnb, which I believe is the best-value accommodation in Nosara. On top of that, the location is excellent. The house is beautiful, well-maintained, and, most importantly, the hosts are incredibly kind, helpful, and always available. I can’t recommend it enough—go for it!

Italian style Bungalow with terrace #3
Agréable séjour, lieu paisible, propre, belle randonnée à faire à proximité, agréable d’observer les petits singes et les oiseaux le matin. Près de Sámara, belle plage. Nous sommes très content de notre séjour.

Private pool, 4 blocks to the beach! Near Samara
El lugar es muy confortable y con bellas zonas verdes alrededor. Las habitaciones tienen A/C y ventiladores de techo. La piscina es fantástica y nos la pasamos muy bien. Jackie fue siempre muy amable y servicial para que nuestra instancia fuera muy agradable. La casa muy cómoda, limpia y ordenada. Dejamos olvidado un dinero en la caja fuerte y con gran prontitud nos transfirió el dinero a nuestra cuenta, demostrando gran honradez, excelente servicio y amabilidad. Hay buenos restaurantes cerca y supermercados locales. Fueron unas memorables vacaciones en familia.

Casa CEIBA-Apt.BLANCA/WiFi 100Mbps-Washing Machine
Appartement pratique pour 2 couples. Nous avions 2 chambres et une cuisine séparés. L'environnement était confortable. Il y avait beaucoup de règles à suivre sur un peu tous les aspects, ce qui rend probablement l'endroit aussi propre. Nous n'avons pas rencontré les hôtes, mais ils ont été très proactifs dans leurs réponses quand nous avons eu des besoins et/ou des problèmes. Séjour très agréable.

Casa Ventanas del Mar - Beachfront Home w Pool
Great location, comfortable layout and very well stocked with all the household necessities.

Ocean View Playa Lagarto Villa Oliveira House 1
Ellos fueron muy amables y atentos, siempre pendientes a nosotros, el lugar tiene vistas hermosas, disfrutamos demasiado los atardeceres desde la casa, alejado de la bulla de la ciudad, mucha naturaleza la vista al mar es una maravilla, las camas súper ricas, la cocina con todo para preparar alimentos, los baños muy limpios y agradables!!! Gracias por recibirnos!

Casa Sámara HerSan: Front Beach House
This is our second time staying here. I highly recommend staying at Gerardo’s place if you want a private pool and oceanfront place to stay in Samara. They are always such fantastic and responsive hosts. They respond to messages right away, always leave some fresh fruit for arrival and the home is exactly what you’d hope for for a beach vacation. We will be back!

Clara Vista, Venado, 30 Acre Vacation Estate
Es un lugar hermoso la casa es muy espaciosa, bien equipada con todo lo que necesitas y más, además la piscina siempre está limpia. Hay mucha tranquilidad y cero ruido desde el tercer piso tienes una vista increíble, debes de considerar que las playas si están un poco alejadas y los caminos no están en muy buen estado. Gerardo su Administrator es muy amable y siempre está atento a lo que necesites. En fin toda mi familia disfruto mucho, esperamos regresar.

Modern Samara Home, Secure Parking -Walk To Beach
Family of 4, loved our stay. Good location near beach and town, kids had a great time in pool, backyard was a perfect place to relax, house had everything we needed. Hosts were very responsive and helpful.

Casa Del Halcon 2
I had a relaxing and adventurous stay with my partner at Casa Del Halcon 2 for 10 nights. The casita was clean, roomy, with a great kitchen and an amazing outdoor area. We spent many mornings in the hammocks with a coffee listening to the sounds of the jungle. The gardens surrounding the property are stunning. After a day of adventuring in the area, the plunge pool was the perfect place to cool off and chill out. We enjoyed reading in the shade on the lounge chairs and daybed. Chris was super helpful and welcoming to us. He was responsive to all of our questions and ensured everything was running smoothly. The location is perfect. A minute walk to the local soda where we had a couple of delicious meals. Small grocery store is 5 minute bike ride. Samara is about a 15 minute bike ride away. Buena Vista beach also 5 minutes away where we saw the most incredible sunsets! Overall we would highly recommend staying here for a truly unique experience of Costa Rica. Pura Vida!

Chalet Pargo
Huber was a wonderful host. He was super responsive when we had questions. We loved staying here. The deck overlooking the jungle is fabulous and the swings make it so wonderful! It was beautiful sitting out there for morning coffee and meditation, naps and evening star and moon gazing. The Chalet was very clean and the staff came each week to clean, change the sheets/ towels which we really appreciated. There's a path that you can walk to the beach so you don't have to get into your car. The Saturday Farmers Market is great and during the week we were able to get what we needed from the bodega in the center of town. We will definitely be back
