I couldn’t have picked a better hotel for my visit Nosara. I even stayed in the dorm and I really enjoyed it. People that stayed in the dorm were all mid budget travellers, very quiet and it was really comfortable and safe

Beautiful grounds, great staff.

This is an amazing hotel! The staff is so friendly and the grounds of the hotel were beautiful. I would come back here in heart beat. My only critique would be that the mattresses are not very comfortable . Outside of that, it’s a 5 out of 5.

It is a lovely property and the staff are very friendly but it is a bit shy on basic amenities such as a small fridge in the room and ice machine.

Our entire experience was fantastic. The rooms are lovely, the garden/grounds are impeccably well taken care of, and the staff (including the owners) were extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were delicious (as was their special brand of organic Costa Rican coffee) and the coconut marg was a hit. It is an easy walk to the beach and shops/restaurants. We will be booking again.

This place is amazing! The property is beautiful And the staff is incredible. Delicious breakfast is included and a nice healthy light menu to order is available. Close proximity to the beach and beach bikes are available to use free of charge. Surfboard lockers provided and a beautiful yoga studio on the premises with daily classes. This place is a gem and can’t wait to come back to Nosara and stay at the Nomadic.

I would absolutely stay at The Nomadic again. The location is great for both beach and restaurants. The ambiance is boutique chill. I loved the layout with most rooms having front porches facing the pool and also a private back patio. There are several cozy areas to play games or read. Breakfast was good- they served just one option but it did vary by day. One yoga class was included per day and I enjoyed all except the breath work (not my thing so I don’t do it). One day they ran out of coffee before 9am which should never happen in a hotel. They provide pool towels but don’t want guests taking them to the beach. This is my one suggestions- get other towels that can go to beach like the quick dry ones they sell in gift shop (for $50!).

Wonderful 4n

We had a wonderful 4nights at Nomadic. The property is beautiful and thoughtfully designed. This boutique hotel is just the right size for an intimate feel. Really enjoyed the daily yoga, especially the subbed class with Emma who was wonderful. The complimentary breakfast is nice and very fresh, but note they have a rotating menu and only one option per day with no variations. Our only negative is that the coffee is very very weak. The location is perfect with a trail right next to the hotel that provides a shaded short cut to the popular main street. Special thanks to Thony and Sandra who were very helpful in coordinating transport and activities for us when we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely 10/10 I would highly recommend for solo travelers. Nosara is a surfer's and yogi's paradise. I stayed in The Nomadic Hotel dorm, which was clean, quiet and made the best of friends with a few of the other dorm guests. The property itself is gorgeous! The design is so well done. The included breakfast was tasty and I like how they had complimentary morning yoga for guests. The staff were super hospitable and helped get a tuk tuk for transportation. It is conveniently located and an easy walk to the main street where more food and retail, and surf shops are located, not to mention the beach! Between lunch and dinner can be extremely hot, hanging out at the pool at Nomadic was a supreme place to be during that time.

Tout au Nomadic est exceptionnel! Seule suggestion serait d’ajouter un accès à un réfrigérateur pour les invités. Il n’y en n’a pas, ni dans les chambres privées, ni dans le dortoir.
