An unforgettable stay at Sendero Nosara I absolutely loved my stay! It’s perfectly located in the heart of Nosara. It’s just steps from the beach and within walking distance of amazing shops and restaurants. I came here to destress from busy city life, and the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease. The space is fresh, beautifully designed, and instantly feels like home. The entire team was wonderful — from the front desk to the bar, restaurant, management, and even the surf shack staff. Everyone was warm, welcoming, and genuinely happy to be there, which created such a positive atmosphere throughout my stay. The food deserves a special mention. Chef Oliver has truly curated something special — a high-end yet relaxed dining experience that captures the spirit of Nosara. Every dish was outstanding; you could honestly eat your way through the whole menu and not find a single miss. Sendero isn’t just a hotel — it’s an experience. Peaceful, stylish, and full of heart. I can’t wait to return!

The best food in Nosara. The rooms are very clean ,functional, quiet and charming with a very comfortable bed. Easy access to the beach. The staff was excellent and friendly. The plunge pool was a delight in the extremely hot weather we had while here. The only thing lacking here is a long swimming pool which is fine really because the beach is nearby.

The property was cleans beautifully, and the hotel staff was amazing. The restaurant food was amazing though the service was a little slow and we had to remind them of things at times. Other than that, the staff was incredibly accommodating and super full with getting reservations booked and helping us with our dog. The location is fantastic and the town is amazing.

Beautiful new boutique hotel with great service.

This is a beautiful, new boutique hotel, within a quick walk to Guiones beach. Modern, eco-chic decor and warm, friendly staff made this a great stay. They were closing for a week for a construction project the day I was checking out but let me stay until my shuttle came late that afternoon. Super nice and accommodating! I’d definitely stay here again if I return to Nosara.
