Ivan and Christy’s place was really great! We appreciated the pool and the spacious room and the kitchen. All of it! In fact the photos don’t do it justice. Much nicer than expected :) Many thanks!

Wir haben drei sehr schöne Tage in Nosara verbracht. Die Casita ist gemütlich und mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet, es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Christy und Ivan sind großartige Gastgeber und haben uns mit tollen Restaurantempfehlungen und Ausgehtipps versorgt. Wir können die Unterkunft uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen und würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

The best host that we ever had. Everything was perfect to the last detail. They are great people, very friendly, respectful and excellent in general. The casita was super clean, a lot of space, with everything that you could need. Perfect location, 5 minutes walk from the beach and 10 minutes walk from very good restaurants in the zone. We loved the place.

Good design with vaulted ceilings, creating a spacious feel. The studio looks great, and it’s relatively close to the beach. There’s a huge king-size bed, adding to the comfort of the stay. The owners are nice, making the experience even better.

Many thanks to Christy and Ivan for a lovely stay! We could tell how much work they put into the casita to have everything that guests need. Everything was super clean and well taken care of, and the place was well-stocked with helpful items like yoga mats, tupperware, and a blender. Close to town, comfortable bed, two big overhead fans and A/C, a beautiful pool to relax in— we couldn’t have asked for a better home base for our week in Nosara. Highly recommend!

This property provides a great quality and quiet getaway for individuals and couples. The casita is quaint and modern and provides all the essentials for your stay. Even though it's a shared property with the main house, it feels private as the gorgeous jungle landscaping surrounds you. The host is responsive, friendly, and available to help with any questions regarding the local area. I would stay here again and highly recommend this property to future guests.

I agree with other reviews that the place is definitely better than the photos. Everything was great - very comfortable bed, gated and very safe, great wifi, kind hosts/easy communication, extremely clean and great location in Playa Pelada. The casita is on the hosts property (it is just you and them there) but I barely saw them and the casita felt very private. A couple things to note: - this is a developing area so there is a fair bit of construction during the day right now (obviously this will lessen over time), - the road in from the highway was pretty bad in some spots so definitely recommend a capable vehicle to get here, - there was a bit of a bad smell coming from the bathroom after heavy rain but I was able to alleviate this with an open window, - the pool is right in front of the hosts home, for anyone who is a bit more shy - that said, Ivan & Christy are very easygoing and have a privacy curtain for if you wish to spend extended time there I hope to return!
