LA NEGRA NOSARA

Felt so lucky to have found this place and that it was available!! Stayed with my 17 yr old son for a week. The hotel is very chill and comfortable in a relaxed way while the staff is very friendly and helpful. Perfect location for surfers as the entrance to the beach is just behind the hotel. The hotel also offered free breakfast (a restaurant open until 3PM is attached) which was amazing. The hotel is also great for non surfers/beginners as there is a surf school on the premise staffed by very friendly instructors.

Hotel is about 5min walk to center of town full of excellent eating options and just far enough to keep the calm and chill atmosphere.

The room was decorated nicely in a simple style. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. The private outdoor patio was perfect for storing our surfboards and drying swimsuits. There was a common kitchen which had a microwave, bigger fridge, ice, stove, etc.

We will definitely go back!!

If you are lucky enough in this life to visit Guiones, you are luckier still to stay at La Negra. Not only did the accommodations and location exceed our expectations, the people were also courteous, kind, and welcoming.

SURF - Whether you are a first time or long-time surfer, be sure you meet up with Juan Carlos and catch some waves with him or one of his teammates. The daily use of his boards was simple and reliable, and our crew was very grateful for his hospitality.

ROOMS - We stayed in 6 and 7 and I would recommend these rooms when visiting as two couples. Having the kitchenette and shade of room 7 and the day long sun of room 6 to quickly dry suits, rash guards, and towels was just perfect.
YOGA - Do yourself a favor and be sure to attend one of Paula’s classes. Even if you have never done yoga before, it is a great work out and you might just have a life altering experience like I did.

FOOD – If you are a foodie or a foodie in training, experiencing breakfast at Destiny Cafe will be a truly memorable experience. When you stay at La Negra, breakfast is included, and you will thank yourself. The four of us tried just about everything on the menu and could not get enough. Do note that Destiny is closed to the public on Mondays, but there is a limited menu available for guests so don’t miss out! The smoothies, coffee, and pastries will also blow you away. If you have the pleasure of tasting one of the croissant (made fresh in house)… you will believe you are in a French cafe. It is no wonder that people travel significant distances to experience the deliciousness of Destiny.

Though we love to travel and see all the beautiful places our world has to offer… before I leave this life, I will pay another visit to this little gem.

Pura vida…

Absolutely adore the surf school here. Ivan is a genius, making surfing feel like a lesson on life. Juan Carlos is so warm and accommodating. It’s been such a pleasure learning from these teachers and mentors.

Had an amazing time at the beautiful and rustic La Negra! The staff - especially Louise and Carlos were incredibly helpful in organizing different activities throughout my stay. Rooms were very clean and location is ideal for the beach and restaurants. Having both Destiny cafe (food was amazing) and La Negra surf school on the grounds is super convenient. Shout out to Juan Carlos and Ivan from La Negra Surf School for making my surf experience top notch!

Will be back for sure!

Pura Vida

Perfect location right next to the beach. Breakfast was amazing and the room was spacious and quiet. I took two surf lesson from Juan Carlos-they we're knowledgeable and patient, a perfect experience. Pura Vida!
