Some notes to our potential guests...

  • We have received feedback from folks that have rented our place suggesting that we provide basic spices such as salt, pepper, garlic powder and what not, as an amenity of our home.  We have attempted to make these available in the past, but unfortunately they just don't hold up more than a week or so in the extreme humidity of the tropics.  When our family travels to Nosara for any length of time, we bring a small amount of our own spices with us in little travel canisters purchased on Amazon.  Everything else we buy at the local market.
  • As the green season approaches each year, please understand that it may have been several months since the last substantial rain fall.  This means that the wells responsible for providing water to our beautiful paradise will be running a bit lower than normal.  In light of this, please be conservative in your water usage and aware that the lesser reserves may sometimes result in lower water pressure.  This goes for the entire town, not just Los Pericos.

traveler reviews for this nosara house rental

Thanks!

Our family spent a week here at the beginning of December, we had a wonderful time. This was our third trip to Costa Rica but our first time to Nosara. We took this trip with my in-laws, although they stayed in another rental property. If you are looking for something off the beaten path then this town is for you. It has all of the services you need to have a nice vacation, such as restaurants, bars and a grocery store, but Nosara is considerably less developed than the other towns we visited on our previous trips. We were reminded of this several times during our stay when the howler monkeys would hang out in the trees above the pool area. I wish I could upload photos as part of my review as this was one of the most memorable vacation moments my family has ever had.

My husband and I read all of the reviews before we decided on this place and found them to be accurate in their description of the house. So rather than repeat a bunch of stuff that has already been said, I'd rather provide some detail about the pool. Hands down, this was our favorite amenity. I already mentioned the monkeys, so it will come as no surprise that the area is very private and and lush with tropical landscaping. The pool itself is a decent size kidney shape, probably nothing you haven't seen before. However, the pool is impeccably maintained, we saw the pool guy everyday (he was pretty nice to talk to as well). What we came to appreciate the most was that the pool is laid entirely with dark blue tile making it noticeably warmer than the concrete bottom pool at our in-law's rental. It seems silly to write this, but in the heat and humidity of the tropics, their pool felt cold.

Anyhow, out of our three trips, this one was by far the best. It is obvious that this home is not just some business rental for the owner, the house is clearly loved. We would stay here again, thank you for sharing your beautiful home, we had a great trip.

Owners response: Hi Kfins,

Thank you for circling back to review our little piece of paradise. Happy to hear that your family loved our home as much as we do! Funny how a 70-75 degree pool in Costa Rica can give you goosebumps, haha! We are in agreement - anything less than 75-80 degrees is simply unacceptable. Glad you made it home safe and should your adventures ever bring you back to Nosara, please consider staying with us again.

We had a great vacation. This house and the quiet town in which it is located are two of the best kept secrets in Guanacaste. My husband and I have been to Cost Rica several times before, but this was our first trip to Nosara. Playa Pelada and Guiones are now our favorite beaches in the country, both of which are only a short walk from the house. As another reviewer mentioned, you can hear the waves at night as you are falling asleep.

What we truly loved about this house was its design. While modern, it feels as if it was designed to be a part of the surrounding jungle, it has a very tranquil and organic feel to it. The entire house faces an undeveloped area of the jungle, this includes a large covered outdoor patio that overlooks the private pool and garden area. We were here in June, so we did experience some tropical rains (mostly in the afternoons). We used the patio a lot! Surprisingly, some of our greatest memories form this vacation came from sitting on the patio playing cards and sharing a bottle of wine.

Awesome house, great town... can't wait to come back!

Owners response: Hi Avall,

Thank you for coming back to review our house, it really means a lot to us. Glad you made good use of the patio and that you enjoyed our house so much. Thanks again!

Second time I have stayed in this house. Both times were great. Very well constructed with Costa Rican style. Walking distance to the surf/beach was a plus. Nice cool A/C for the summer time, along with a pool makes this place very comfortable. Lush plants make it feel like your own little retreat. Highly recommend a vacation to Nosara and a stay at Los Pericos.

Owners response: Hi dm,

Glad to hear you had a nice time in Nosara and that you enjoyed staying with us a second time. Thanks for taking notice of the surrounding plants, we are amazed at the growth with each trip we take. Hope you will find time in life to make another trip to Nosara, and when you do, we hope you will choose to stay at Los Pericos!
