amazing location run by a great crew! loved it!

Such a great Casa located right in best part of Nosara! For those visiting from Toronto or Canada it’s kinda like a laneway suite or ADU located right behind another home. Whch is ideal because it is right in the centre of the commercial district but feels very private and is quietly located off the main roads. Staying here puts you walking distance to everything, all the restaurants and also a short walk from the beach as well. Pur host was super friendly and a great local guide. Highly recommended, great value for what you get and ideal location. A++

Casa soul was a great location that felt like a treehouse in the forest. Keep your eyes out for the monkeys in the tree out the dining room window. It’s also walkable to a lot of restaurants and the beach, although we did love the freedom of having an ATV to explore more of the area.

Host Response

Christina, we were very happy to host you!

Beautiful and comfortable Airbnb for two great location next to plenty of restaurants and short walk to the beach. Check in was easy and Jo was quick to respond as a host. A few things to note: - bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper Norte is quite close and they often have music playing until 8 or 10pm depending on their event schedule - there were quite a few ants during our stay, while I was expecting a few I felt it was more than I anticipated. - wifi is good but the neighbourhood did go through a periodic internet outage lapping 1.5 days (something to note if you are a remote worker like myself) While the outage was out of Jo’s hands she was quick to respond and suggested alternative cafes where I could work out of which was greatly appreciated Overall the place was exactly what we needed. A/C, close to the beach and the action, a comfortable bed and food kitchen amenities!

Jo Ellen was great with communication. Looked exactly like the photos. I would happily stay there again. Great location! Was just a few minutes walk to Playa Guiones beach, shops, Juan Surfos, a small mercado, two breweries & several eateries. I was pleasantly surprised how the landscape made the apartment feel like it was more secluded. The outdoor enclosed patio was a nice addition. The bed was firm. Good wifi. The shower was hot and had good water pressure as long as you avoided flushing the toilet beforehand. The space was clean and had thoughtful amenities to make for an enjoyable stay. I liked that there were candles & matches accessible in the event of a long power outage. It's worth mentioning that it's CR and nature finds it's way indoors, but I didn't mind the ant visitors. Do bring a headlamp; I bought one on Amazon that also tilted which made navigating the terrain after sunset easier than using the phone as a flashlight. Do bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.

Had a great stay at this cozy, immaculate apartment located next to the main strip of restaurants and a few minutes (by foot) from the main beach entrance in North Guiones. Jo Ellen was a wonderful host. She was very communicative — including sharing news of local events of interest — and extremely responsive in answering questions. When a water main broke in the neighborhood, she invited me to use the outside shower at her home. I’d be delighted to stay here again.

Very nice appartement and studio. Great Location, easy 2min walk to the beach. Very great host, easy to communicate and always responding promptly! Would stay here again!

The space is as-depicted, clean where it matters, furnished with a comfortable mattress and powerful AC unit in the bedroom. The screened porch outside is a lovely feature! Water pressure in the shower was usually fine, if the toilet was not recently flushed. (The shower itself is a beautiful space.) The hosts are very communicative, and considerate. There is a hotel immediately adjacent that hosts outdoor events, with music occasionally turned-up to an obnoxious volume­. Otherwise, the location can't be beat, with convenient access to the mini-market and some great dining! Very pleased to have stayed in the apartment— airy, bright, and very relaxing to return-to.

Jo Ellen is a great host, very welcoming and always responded to any of my requests or problems. The apartment is situated right in the center of Guiones, which is especially beneficial if you don‘t have a rental car! Everything is accessible by walking distance. I loved all the amenities that were provided in the apartment and enjoyed my stay a lot! The bed is one of the most comfortable I have ever had in an airBnB! Would definitely recommend this place to friends and family and hope to return soon!
