A pretty big disappointment.
The property has potential but sadly doesn't live up to it.
When we arrived, we noticed the deck by the pool was very unstable, rotted wood. It can be very dangerous so please be aware if you are planning to bring small children or older adults. We informed the property manager of this and he said they were planning to fix it in the coming years (?) We had a few stubbed toes on our week there.
There were many small issues/annoyances, like the outdoor shower was broken (didn't drain), pool lights broken, toilets/plumbing were awful (the property manager will say that is par for the course in Nosara but it is not, we've stayed at many other places there). LOTS of ants, in the showers, bathrooms, all over the deck that we had planned to do yoga on. There were dirty razors and bottle caps left in the shower. On Semana Santa (weeks around Easter) the water ran out every night from around 7pm-10am the next morning.
A large disturbance is the construction in the neighborhood that started early and continued for most of the day. If you choose to rent this property I would recommend looking into that before renting.
Be sure to update the amt of guests your bringing, as they will have their staff count and report back and charge you. We had a couple last minutes guests and we were charged.
Nosara is a great place, but this house and property manager are way below par. You can do better!
