Location
Casa Dos Cocos is located in the prestigious K Section of Nosara within the Guiones Beach Club. This prime location is just a two-minute walk from excellent surf spots at Baker’s Beach and the tide pools at the south end of Playa Guiones.
Nearby attractions include:
- The Bodhi Tree, a renowned yoga and wellness retreat.
- Various shops and restaurants in Guiones.
Guests can enjoy the soothing sound of ocean waves from the house, offering a perfect balance between proximity to the beach and town while maintaining a peaceful, secluded atmosphere.
Local Considerations
While Costa Rica’s infrastructure is improving, guests may occasionally encounter dust, insects, or brief outages of power, water, or internet. These are typical in the area and part of the authentic local experience.
To help maintain connectivity, Casa Dos Cocos is equipped with two internet providers: Starlink and Liberty (a local Costa Rican service). The home also features solar power with a battery backup system to provide electricity during short outages, including at night.
Water is supplied through backup tanks and filtered with a system that softens and purifies it, making tap water safe to drink.
Safety and Security
Casa Dos Cocos is within the secure, gated Guiones Beach Club community, which has a guard at the entrance and regular nighttime patrols. Despite these measures, theft can still occur in Nosara. Guests are advised to:
- Always lock doors and windows when away or at night.
- Avoid leaving valuables or personal items unattended, including electronics and identification.
- Not leave valuables in cars or on patios unattended.
Rent Nosara, the homeowner, and the property manager are not liable for any loss due to theft.
Guest Access and Parking
Parking accommodates two small cars. Please inquire for additional guidance regarding parking arrangements.

Very comfortable home that is a 5 minute walk to great surfing. From sunrise to sunset it's a perfect spot to hit the waves, swim in the pool, rest on the lanai or in the air conditioned bedrooms, cook a meal. We were warned of construction and power outages but were not bothered by either. Overall the home is super comfy.

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Dos Cocos. The outdoor space, including the two lounge areas and the pool, was spectacular! The location in Guiones K Section was very close to the beach (less than 5 minute walk) and very walkable to restaurants (exactly what we wanted). Though Guiones beach seems very safe and in previous visits to the area we haven't felt the need for more security, it a nice bonus that the house is located in a gated community. It was very peaceful and quiet in the house and in the back outdoor space. The indoor space had limited natural light but we spent most of out time in the back outdoor space which we were really impressed by. It was comfortable, clean, bright and beautiful. The pool was also bigger than most and was a highlight for the group!

Great location, great outdoor space (two separate shaded sitting areas, great pool etc). The only downside is the inside of the house feels like you’re in a basement (rather dark, doesn’t have the indoor/outdoor feel we would have hoped for). Bedrooms are good though!

My family and I had a great stay at Casa Dos Cocos. The house was very spacious for our group of 6 and the separate studio apartment was great for anyone who wants a bit more privacy. We loved the living space outside, very comfortable, and having our own pool was a big bonus. It is very private as it backs on to the jungle. The location was only a 5min walk (maybe less) to the beach at the Baker's beach entrance but a bit further walk to shops/restaurants (10-20min depending where you are going). We preferred to be closer to the beach so everyone could come and go as they please from beach to the property. If you're further in the town, you can take a tuktuk back to the property very easily from $8-10 USD. Otherwise, renting a golf cart or ATV would be beneficial to get around if you don't have a car. We had a couple small issues with the house, but the Rent Nosara team was very quick to communicate and have them addressed. I would definitely stay here again! Thank you, Paulina.

We absolutely loved our stay at Dos Cocos! The house was perfect for our family of six—we had beds to spare, and there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out. The kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were comfortable, there were plenty of towels for both the bath and beach, and the location was fantastic. The pool and outdoor area were a dream and the perfect place to unwind after a day of swimming, surfing, fishing, etc. Be sure to walk to the beach to catch the amazing sunsets! The host was quick to respond and answer any questions we had. We felt right at home and would stay at Dos Cocos again in a heartbeat!

This house was a great home away from home in nosara! It is very close to the beach, walkable and bike able to restaurants, yoga and shops! Our son loved the pool. The pool deck is very slippery though - he fell a couple of times. That would be my only complaint about this place.

Wonderful home, great house manager, fantastic location, home is comfortable for 6-8, maybe 10, guests. Angela was a gem! A few appliances were being replaced when we stayed, so a bit of bad timing, but host was gracious. I'd recommend. Can't beat the space and location.

We had a very nice stay. Our host, Angela, helped us arrange pick-up and drop-off from the airport. She was very helpful and responsive to all our questions. The house and location is great if you want to be near the beach. There are a couple of trails you can take that are both about a 5 min walk to the beach. The beach is nice and wide and was not crowded at all when we were there. It's also a great one to surf. There are a few restaurants near by and many others within a 20 min walk. We went during wet season and I recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle during this part of the year if you plan on driving around. The house is great and looks like the pics. It is clean and uncluttered. We would definately stay here again.
