"The bar and restaurant area was beautiful and the only problem was that it was not open when I was there. Breakfast was good. The pools were clean. It is very nice gated community. And a safe environment. I would definitely stay there again."
Hotel Boutique Lagarta Lodge
Hotel Boutique Lagarta Lodge"The staff were accommodating and always willing to help. Our room was lovely and as advertised online. Clean, comfortable, and quiet. The pools were wonderful and our spa experience was extremely positive. Overall good value for dollar. Our only complaint would be the cost of a poolside drink - it was wild!"

"Employees very friendly respectful nice breakfast thank you very much for your service and kindness."
"La ubicación y logística es excelente!! A menos 100 metros caminando de la playa, con Starbucks, restaurantes de todo tipo y minisuper en un radio de 200 metros, y al mismo tiempo estar en una zona segura y exclusiva, sobre la calle principal, definitivamente es la mejor opción. Adicionalmente, la comodidad del parque subterraneo para accesar directamente con código y de ahí subir a los apartamentos, hace que uno se sienta como en casa."

Monkeys in the mango trees on the property in the morning, and iguanas roaming all day. The food, the staff, and the hotel itself were all 5 stars! We would love to return to Nosara, and would not stay anywhere else. Thank you Sunset Shack!"
"Centrally located but quiet. Great staff. Beautiful pool and shared kitchen and cabana area. For the price, it’s very good/what you would expect. The rooms are simple and parts of the facility are old, but that is why it is priced more affordably than other hotels. I would definitely stay there again if I stay in the same financial bracket. If I had more money, I would ideally like to have a more comfortable mattress and newer windows that close fully and no smell of mold. But all in...
