We had an unforgettable experience in Nosara. The host and co-host resolved everything very quickly. We were very satisfied with our stay and especially appreciated Sophie’s kindness and attention. The Reina room is beautiful, with great amenities, privacy, and excellent service. We highly recommend this place!

We had a great stay in the Rancho Treehouse, everything was as described and Chris and Jen were very welcoming and responsive. The pool was lovely and refreshing. The only thing we didn’t realise is that the bathroom is separate to the treehouse, located by the pool but it was totally fine for the short term stay and didn’t impact our stay. The road is a bit rough coming up to the accommodation so you just need a 4x4 vehicle to tackle it with strong tires. We thoroughly enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and had a great rest, so much so that my partners Whoop watch said he had almost 100% recovery both nights. Thanks again!!

Hacienda Norara Almendras is very beautiful and nice. Jen and Chris were very attentive and responsive, even one day we locked out the room very late at night and Jen instantly answered and helped us to resolve it. If you plan to stay it’s important to consider that the row to access the Airbnb is quite tough so a big car is recommended. Also, it would be important to know that the shower is shared and that the bathroom it’s outside the room, so when you need to use it in the middle of the night when you were sleeping is not that comfy to get up, go down and use it. Nevertheless, the place is as beautiful as the pictures and near the beach. Thanks Chris and Jen for hosting us! ☺️✨

We were disappointed because it promised an experience in nature. It's not a treehouse, it's a room over the common pool area, next to the dirt road and gravel with a lot of noise from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. The room needs thermal insulation (could not be there during the afternoon), a fan does not resolve. It needs to ensure care such as the imitation of the shower (it was never done and was already dirty when we arrived), do not leave the dog alone at home barking all the time. When the road is improved and these care guaranteed, it can be enjoyable.

Chris, Jen, Thanks so kindly for hosting us. What a great place and fun adventure. We loved the sound of the howler monkey in the tree across the street, the way the tree house swayed, the delightful pool, the wide couches to lounge on while we talked and cooked. You have found a neat part of the world. Come visit when you are on Bainbridge Island. Andy and Kathy

Lovely, central & authentic experience. Gorgeous pool & hangout area, easy stroll to the beach, kind & helpful hosts, plus your own private room & balcony crafted using genuine, age-old building practices and materials. Staying here made my quick visit to Nosara a personal mini-vacay.

We loved staying the tree house! I would stay here again when I’m back in Nosara. Chris and Jen are very friendly and hospitable, and the property feels very safe. The common areas were very cozy and clean. I highly Recommend it !
