01 Sneak Peek

What is it about?

Costa Rica - Nosara

When you first arrive in Nosara there is a sense of calm, of belonging and welcoming. Nestled in a quaint town in the Guanacaste Province on the Pacific side of the country, Nosara has become a “mecca” for both the traveling surfer and the traveling yoga enthusiast.

The vibe in and out of the water is so special that words just cannot do it justice. Once you have stayed a night or two in Nosara you understand why people are continuously drawn back to its shores. With year-round excellent surf for all levels of surfer at your fingertips to countless adventurous activities to keep the blood flowing, you too will fall in love with the people, the place and the vibe of Nosara.

Olas Verdes opened in Nov. 2015, and was the first Platinum L.E.E.D. certified hotel in all of Central America.

All 17 rooms, some of which can be combined to create 2, 3 and 4 bedroom suites look out onto the pool or, out to the neighboring wildlife refuge. Just a short private 2 minute walk through the jungle path through the refuge brings you to the sand and surf. El Manglar Restaurant on the grounds has amazing food options that can soothe any healthy appetite after a good surf session.
