Las Brisas De Nosara-- Rental House & Guest House

Description from the owner

Las Brisas is a unique two house compound on one of the largest lots in the absolute best location of Guiones Beach, Nosara. This Nosara beach house is a two minute walk to the entrance of Guinones Beach (with surfboard in hand) and is so close to the beach you can hear the surf at night. This rental house property is located in the exclusive J section of Playa Guiones in the heart of everything.

Manicured gardens, a pool, outdoor shower, covered outdoor decks with hammocks, chairs, and comfortable sleeping quarters for 12 make this Nosara House Rental one of the best properties in Nosara for a large or family or group or a couple want...ing privacy in their own spacious compound.

Situated near the Harbor Reef hotel (but closer to the beach) and just down the road from the Beach Dog Cafe, this house is central to all dining, shopping, surfing, and the other amenities that Playa Guiones has to offer.

The compound's unique location allows you to walk everywhere (though it is fun to rent an ATV to get around and go father afield) including restaurants, surf shops, massages, pilates, yoga, and everything else that Playa Giones has to offer. There is zip lining down the road in Nosara and fishing charters 10 minutes away in Playa Garza.

Between both houses this compound has 5 bedrooms (July onwards) and two additional sleeping areas and is spacious and flowing. All of the bedrooms and the living room area are decorated in a beach chic style that captures the essence of the surfing vibe in Nosara.

The front house has 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms and sleeps 6 in bedrooms and one in the living room. A large dining room table that seats 10 and ample lounge seating makes this a house you'll want to hang out in.

The back house (starting July) has 2 large bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a large common area with kitchenette. It sleeps 2 in the master bedroom and 2 on daybeds in the spacious living room.

The pool area has an outdoor shower and bathroom and is surrounding by luscious landscaping. Both houses have outdoor decks, hammocks, and ample seating for reading a book, hanging out with friends and family, or to take a breezy nap.

Both the main house and the casita are designed to allow the breezes of Nosara to flow through and are light, airy, spacious, and immaculately clean.

The house includes a fully equipped kitchen with microwave, stove, refrigerator, a blender (to make Margarita's) and everything else you'll need to host a large group.

All house rentals include two house cleanings (with laundry) per week and we offer additional cleaning and daily cooking for a small additional charge.

This is a very special estate type compound that would appeal to large families, surfer groups, and people on yoga retreats.

We are continuously upgrading and improving the property with additional amenities and features that may not yet be reflected here. A new palapa style Rancho will be completed in July and includes a loft sleeping space upstairs and outdoor living room, bar, kitchen, and dining area below. This is designed to bring the experience of outdoor, tropical living to the property and adds an exotic vibe to our Nosara Home Rental.

  Stylish, Comfortable Home In Paradise!

  Left on 12/31/2011 for a stay in December 2011
  
  

  We rented the Guest House for 2.5 weeks in Nov/Dec 2011. From the first helpful email that alice sent me following my enquiry we were confident that Nosara would be a great place for a relaxing holiday and it certainly was. Alice and Mike were so welcoming and very kind to us during our stay. The guest house is set in beautiful tropical gardens, the house is very stylish, comfortable and spacious with a huge terrace. The house has it's own entrance separate from the main house. The shared pool separates the two houses. Beautifully presented, we found it equipped with everything we needed. We loved watching the iguanas and gorrobos in the garden, also humming birds and butterflies. We saw howler monkeys locally but sadly none in the garden, we gather they come at certain times depending what is growing at the time. We also loved hearing the sounds of the jungle at night. The gardener and the cleaner visit a few times a week so there are plenty of opportunities to practice your Spanish!
  
  The house is situated in Guiones, a lovely laid back place with a friendly, village like atmosphere. Almost everybody speaks, even on the beach. The roads are all dirt tracks, no tarmac for miles. All the hotels and restaurants are set back in the trees with nothing near the shoreline which is backed by trees. The stunning beach is about three minutes walk from the house. Great for surfing. You can also walk along the beach to Pelada, a calmer, smaller cove, absolutely delightful. Guiones has a mixed expat population, Americans and Europeans. Many of the holidaymakers come here for surfing and there are many surf schools. Guiones village is about 8 minutes walk and has a small supermarket, a few souvenir shops, a bank and aTM, a few cafes and restaurants and not a lot else. There'a a very good bakery which sells lovely bread, cakes and pastries.
  
  At first it seems extremely quiet at night but there are some good live music venues and restaurants. They just aren't immediately obvious. Everything starts early and winds up by about 10pm, mainly due to the time zone, sunrise at about 5am and sunset about 5.20pm. You will need torches (provided) and be happy to walk along dark tracks to the best places (if you don't have a car) but it all seems quite safe. The Gilded Iguana and Kayasol had good music and there is a new club type place next to Kayasol with music too. Best for food is Casa Romantica, just superb. Beach Dog Cafe food looked good too but we didn't get a chance to try it. Watch the prices. We found restaurants were pretty much English pub prices with main courses at around £8 to £10 (12 to 15 us Dollars) but be aware that some places include 13% tax and/or 10% service charge on the menu and some don't but all put it on the bill so you can get 23% on the menu prices. Read the small print. Supermarkets seemed very expensive coming from the UK. If you have a car it is cheaper away from Guiones.
  There are some lovely places in the area to attend yoga classes.
  
  There are local buses on the top road to but not that frequent. Google a timetable. Really to get the best from this area you need a 4x4 or at least a quad. Nosara village (4 miles) is a must see, so full of character with the landing strip at the end of the high street. There is a late night dance club here. Great cheap food at the Soda Cafe by the bus stop and Rancho Tico. Also two large supermarkets.
  
  Further afield don't miss the sunset at Largarta Lodge. We've travelled a lot and rate the view from here as the best we've seen in the world. There is also a nature trail here, best early morning. Nosara River Tours run by a lovely German couple is highly recommended. Other than that, just drive up the coast road and beach hop. There are miles of beautiful deserted beaches. Playa Juanquillo is a highlight. Ostional for the turtles, check with locals for best times. There is also a monkey sanctuary nearby which is quite pricey but it goes to a good cause and we gather it is a great experience.
  
  If you need a driver we highly recommend abel. www.nosara.com/nosara_transportation.htm#vino He got us to San Jose and back.
  
  We would thoroughly recommend staying in Nosara and at Luna-de-Papel. We had a fantastic time and enjoyed perfect weather. We would love to return soon.

  Fantastic place to stay in Nosara.

  Left on 08/26/2010 for a stay in July 2010
  
  

  We had a wonderful stay in the Luna de Papel guesthouse. It has a big bedroom where the parents stayed, and the two children slept on the day beds in the livingroom kitchen area. The owners were at their house, but we almost never saw them. That said, they were very friendly and helpful when we did see them. The pool is in between the two houses, so when you are in one, you do not feel like the other is close by at all.
  We did not have a car during our stay: we walked everywhere including into town (7 minutes) to the beach (5 minutes), to the local cafe (2 minutes), to several hotels and restaurants (1-10 minutes) and loved every minute of it.
