Beautiful Hotel with Great Beach Access
Our second visit to this hotel. It’s beautiful. Staff are friendly and helpful. Situated as close to the beach as possible in Nosara. You walk right out of the hotel to the path to the beach.
A couple minor things on this trip. They did charge an extra $45 a night because we brought our son (making 3 of us) even though the suite we booked sleeps 4. So that added an extra $250 onto our cost.
The other minor issue is the cost of beer at the restaurant. $8 a bottle for a domestic lager and $14 for a domestic IPA. In town those are like $2.50 and $4 respectively. We went to the local market and bought 6-packs for $12. On the other hand the cocktails are great and cost about what you would expect at an upscale bar.
Otherwise the place is the best combination of location, comfort, and cost in Nosara. We will definitely be back.

From the moment we arrived we fell in love with the people and the hotel in general. The staff is beyond kind and accommodating. The hotel is magical. Very quaint and very welcoming. The place is beautiful! I felt so lucky to stay there. They offer so much to their guests; laundry, refillable water bottles, soaps, coffee, etc.The beach access is impressive. I cannot say enough. If you are thinking of staying on this property do not hesitate! I would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Front desk even ordered us a tuktuk to go to a larger grocery store. All around excellent place!

Hidden Gem
Family vacation mid-January. Hotel is beautiful and staff were very friendly and helpful. Hotel is about as close to the beach as you can get in Nosara. Walk right out of the hotel to the footpath to the beach. The restaurant was excellent. Safari Surf School is right there. Definitely recommend.

The responsiveness and friendliness of the staff make this place fabulous. I was only there overnight en route to a retreat but would absolutely go back for a stay. Quick walk to the beach, surf and boogie boards, small pool, small restaurant with amazing food. Perfect for what I needed.

I booked and did not realize the distance from Liberia Airport (3hrs) but the drive was beautiful and honestly loved seeing the country. It is a hidden gem. Fantastic service, FOOD and DRINKS. Far better than I expected to be honest. Easy walk to the beach (like 3 minutes under the canopy of the jungle). The beach was fantastic and not crowded at all. I would def recommend. Not a great deal to do around there but a few restaurants and shops within walking distance. We were looking for this exact experience.

Great food, friendly staff, 5 min scenic walk to one of the best beaches in the world. Howler monkeys and lizards visit the property - (this is a plus for me). Beds and rooms were comfortable. The roads going in were bumpy but don’t let that discourage you - the property and Nosara as a whole are fantastic. We’ll be back. :)

Perfect stay at olas verdes. Our 2 room set up was great as there was plenty of space. I loved how the rooms connected through a shared walkway which was recommended by the hotel prior to our arrival. The staff are all so warm and accommodating. We loved the restaurant on the property as well as the surf school and proximity to the beach.

This is secluded, away from the busier area of the small town. So, we rode bikes into town during the day for lunch, exploring and called a “tuk-tuk” for evenings after dark when traveling to town for dinner. Close to Guiones Beach and totally laid back, which we wanted.

Oles Verdes was an amazing experience! The hospitality is unmatched! The welcome at check in was awesome. We were blown away. The resort is beautiful and very comfortable. Our room was great. Being on the second floor felt very private. We especially appreciated the laundry service that’s included. Wow. The food was delicious and the walking path to the beach was so convenient. The beach was beautiful and perfect for learning to surf. We loved the pool here. It had several places that you could sit in the pool comfortably and was beautifully landscaped. We walked almost everywhere and spent an afternoon riding bikes around the village. The bikes that are included to borrow with the resort were perfect, and we also appreciated that they had boogie boards to use at the beach as well. The surf school at the resort (it’s operated by a separate company, but is in the resort) was really great and the instructors were awesome. Thank you Oles Verdes!!
