One of the coolest hotels we’ve ever stayed at!
We were beyond thrilled with this hotel. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Our room was absolutely beautiful as well were the hotel grounds. My only disappointment was that I only booked 2 nights. I would have liked to stay longer!

We stayed at Hotel Guiones for 7 nights and could not have been happier. Every morning, we started our day with a delicious breakfast with fresh, healthy ingredients made by the talented cooking staff. The coffee was superb! That was followed by yoga and stretching at the secluded yoga platform and then a swim in the saltwater pool. The pool area was a tropical oasis with lush, abundant foliage, a soothing waterfall and the gentle sounds of varied birds and other wildlife. We spent the afternoons exploring the pristine beaches and nearby nature trails, trying out fresh local dishes and tasty beverages in the nearby eateries and shopping at the lovely little shops of Playa Guiones. Evenings were spent watching gorgeous sunsets and then either dining out or heading back for dinner at the bar at Al Local, chatting with the surfing crowd who like to hang out there. All the staff at Hotel Guiones were exceptionally warm, gracious and helpful. Muchas gracias! We absolutely loved our stay and hope to return in the future. Pura Vida! S & G

Beautiful, lush hotel with semi-secluded units. Staff went out of the way to welcome us. on-site eatery, The Local, was the best food we had in Nosara.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel borders the main road between Nosara and Samara which is very busy and super loud - trucks, ATVs, motocycles etc. If you’re in the rooms at the top of the property (1-6), it’s constant noise day and night which is frustrating in such a beautiful garden jungle. It’s far from peaceful and the nature ‘s sounds and tranquility are overpowered by the road’s constant bustle. Further down the property is a bit quieter.

Nice hotel with a great location. Staff was helpful in every way. The hotel is close to shops and the beach. It is set within the natural environment so it feels very connected to nature.

A Delightful little place close to nature
We had a very nice stay at The Gardens. We had the large room on the second floor. There are only 11 rooms. The balcony with all the trees and pool area were very nice, and at sunset lots of birds, and even one-day monkeys. The restaurant was good, and especially the "our fish" dinners cooked by Chef Henry and Chef Emerson. We were very impressed with their delicious presentations of our freshly caught Tuna.

Great beach vacation
Beautiful setting but noisy next to highway. Enjoyed the outside patio kitchen setup. Short vacation walk to beach. Lousy wifi. Great free breakfast. Beach was outstanding surfing.

Ideal stay in Nosara!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Gardens! The staff was really nice and helpful and the property was beautiful! We really enjoyed our own private patio and the yoga shala they had on site. The rooms were decorated very cozy and the location is super convenient so you don’t have to drive through a ton of dirt road to get there.

I absolutely loved my stay at The Gardens Hotel. The property was gorgeous, the salt water pool was very relaxing and refreshing, rooms were very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed! The daily included breakfast was so delicious (get the breakfast burrito it's to die for!), and the spicy margarita at El local was one of the best I've ever had! To top it all off the staff super friendly and very accomodating. Elizabeth greeted us with a warm smile and hello every day, and went above and beyond to make sure that we were enjoying ourselves. Definitely recommend staying here if you're travelling to Nosara!

Decepcionante
Não cumpre o que promete, o hotel é razoável, apesar de bonito não possui serviços básicos parecendo mais um hostel. O staff é muito ruim, parecem estar fazendo favor em atender.

This review is a surprise to us, as we were very attentive to you at check-in, even going above to help organize your payment possibility, organizing your local transports and helping you feel at home by making sure you knew where everything was. Something must have been lost in translation during your one night stay. Perhaps you were not here long enough to notice all of our amenities and care. Perhaps Nosara isn't made for the Ritz, but our high end linens, organic cotton hammocks and cushy furnture throughout has never been described as hostel like. We're sorry if you were disappointed but we have a steady stream of guests who love and appreciate our offerings and we hope readers see those reviews.

Non vale il prezzo
camera che avrebbe bisogno di manutenzione. Pulizie giornaliere gratuite ma solo su richiesta... Io dato il prezzo avevo dato per scontato che venissero fatte, dato che solitamente funziona così, anche in pensioni moooolto più economiche. Colazione compresa buona, ma a scelta tra... O, O. O caffè o succo. Ogni aggiunta si pagava... E ripeto, dato il prezzo... Non ci sta. Materassi vecchi e scomodi, prendevano da un lato. Asciugamani macchiati.
