The house is in the perfect location steps away from the surf. It is one of the few houses right on the beach in Nosara. The area is not very built up, nature abounds... we had visits from all types of insects, monkeys, armadillos, song birds, vultures, hawks, tarantulas, scorpions, and lots of friendly local dogs passing through.
The housekeeper/cook Norma made fantastic breakfasts and
either lunch or dinner meals every day with local ingredients. At first we did not understand how it worked with her, but eventually we learned that Norma is paid by the owners and we were just to tip her at the end of our stay. My wife went together with Norma to the grocery store to buy food for our stay, that worked out well with Norma planning the menus.
The concierge service from Nosara Surfing made a huge difference. They were always available on Whats App and answered all our questions, reserved tours, provided restaurant recommendations, covid tests, etc. Really outstanding support - especially as we don't speak Spanish.
We loved the house with its the outdoor living room area. Never felt like we needed to be inside. The pool is not heated, but was refreshingly cool. The kitchen is fully equipped. Could use a new coffee maker. The bedrooms all well-furnished with good air conditioning and screens on windows, great to hear the waves at night. Only problem we had with the rooms was a bad smell from one of the shower drains. The service immediately sent someone to clean the drain and provided a fan to circulate fresh air.
One of our best vacations ever, can highly recommend staying at Casa Sol y luna!
