Family-friendly vacation rentals in Nosara

This was my third trip to Samara and my third time staying with Elena and Francesco. As they have always been, they were excellent hosts - super responsive, helpful and friendly. The accommodation suits a mother daughter duo, a couple or two couples, as I have experienced all scenarios. Super clean, well equipped, and walkable to everything! Would recommend again and again!

Great responsive host and perfect location right in the centre. Some action at night if you are a light sleeper but it is a perfect location otherwise. right by grocery stores, restaurants, and the beach.

Very beautiful and unfortunately too short stay. The accommodation is very well located, quiet and close to the sea and at the same time a few minutes walk from the center. Clearly communicated check-in and check-out formalities. All the necessary amenities were available including pool towels, which was really much appreciated and used! I highly recommend this listing!

We had a lovely stay in villa #6. It was a perfect location, close to the beach and the downtown while still being quiet and peaceful. The rooms were exactly what we needed for our family. They set up a travel crib for our toddler in advance and the outdoor space was beautiful and relaxing. Would recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in Samara.

We were looking for a quiet place for a getaway - and the village and house were perfect. The highlight for our kids was the trampolinie and pool. We spent more time at the house than the beach that was very close because the kids were happy. We value communication and information, and the hosts communicated before and throughout our stay whenever we had questions. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience and my wife has said, "We need to do this more often!" That's a win in my book!

Staying at Rancho De Linda was an unforgettable experience. Nestled in the lush Costa Rican jungle on the beach, it offers the perfect blend of natural charm to fully immerse yourself in the local ecosystem. The property is surrounded by vibrant wildlife — from colorful frogs, friendly iguanas, beautiful butterfly’s, hermit crabs and chirping birds. The views are breathtaking and the sounds of the ocean are mesmerizing — making it a true ecological retreat. Douglas and Irena were delightful hosts. We enjoyed visits from their sweet pup Bambi and loved the availability of the housekeeper. The place is very clean and well taken care of. We loved our Yoga class Irena taught under the palapa and enjoyed the delicious cooking of two local chefs. We drove into Tamarindo for the day and visited the Diamanté Eco Adventure Park for a thrilling zip line. If you are looking for an authentic Costa Rican adventure, book this place now and experience the meaning of Pura Vida!! 🌸🐸🏝️🦋🧘‍♀️🦀🦎

Good communication with the host. Good beds that do creak a bit if you move a lot. Close to a soda and supermarket.

Very quiet and peaceful, quite clean and very well-equipped house, quite close to the beach, the fans are just a little old so it can get a little hot and the vegetation helps to cool the house, the vehicle must be left outside but it is only 50 meters from the house but it is very quiet so it is safe, Johannes is an excellent host, always attentive to everything, I would definitely stay in this house again.

Great location only a stroll to the gilded iguana and many other great spots. Place felt very big and more than enough for 2 kids and 2 adults. Would and definitely am staying again! Simone also made it very easy to have a car waiting at the airport for us and arrange any thing we needed to make the trip seamless.

Special spot in Nosara! Everything was walkable, and there were a lot of restaurants to choose from within 5-10 mins. We loved that the beach was less than a 5 min walk! Dave was extremely kind and felt safe during my whole time. his Airbnb is exactly as described and just like the photos easy access getting in and out he even has a cute cat that will greet you by the door!! Definitely recommend staying at the spot if you’re single, coupled, or have a small child. Bonus, Dave offered to do laundry (for a price for others) which saved our booty!!! Yay!

Awesome location with no people. Very isolated which was awesome. You can hear the ocean from the bedroom and living area. We have already booked our return trip. It is an Eden experience. Love the place and will be back soon.

What a perfect stay! The place is better than the photos, spacious inside and out, up in the hills, beautiful view, tucked away in the jungle. Excellent pool. Jennifer is a great host, excellent communication, helpful, friendly and accommodating. This place is ideal for a getaway. Perfect location close to the main town and beaches. I highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home and very comfortable stay! Well shaded and a nice retreat from the midday sun. Location was perfect - quiet but very close to beach, town and amenities. If you plan on cooking, be sure to bring or purchase cooking basics (salt pepper etc) as was not available in the home.

It is very close to the beach, you can walk there, and the beach seemed very nice, it has many restaurants on the beach that give it a special touch, as well as volleyball courts, soccer and different tours nearby. Sarina recommended some to us and we were able to do the dolphin and snorkel one. In addition, the place had what we needed, a beautiful view and you could hear the sea from the accommodation.

This place was more than we could have hoped for. Åsa’s place is beautiful, thoughtfully decorated and is full of character. It is incredibly private despite having neighbors nearby. What stood out the most was the view. We all spent our mornings sitting outside, soaking it in. Grateful to have had this place to share an unforgettable week in Nosara with friends.

This is literally staying ON the beach in a casual, tranquil, local Tico neighborhood. If you love the beach and can imagine the convenience of having your house along with you as you enjoy the beach, then you’re likely to love this stay. You know what the tide is doing because you hear it and see it from the house 24/7. The peaceful sounds of the surf, rain and wildlife were our favorite part! Thanks!

My family of four spent a lovely week at Diego‘s home. The view is fantastic. Lisbeth was always there when we needed her. Proximity to the beach was perfect. We enjoyed the pool which was clean and just the right size. Diego helped us make reservations at Don Ramiro’s on our last night, something I cannot recommend enough.

The stay in a quiet house was incredible. We felt like home we loved the very quiet area to rest and surrounded by nature. The kitchen was very well equipped and the washer and dryer was very useful as it was raining and the clothes did not dry, vidal was very kind to us gave us good recommendations of places to visit. The cleanliness is good , the only thing I can recommend is that if they are going to wash they make sure to bring a 4x4 car since the climb is a little heavy and the distances to the beaches if they are a little removed. We will definitely stay at home again for the next holidays .

We felt very comfortable in Chris's place. He greeted us personally, gave great tips for the area and provided a bowl of fresh fruit. The decor was as described and the kitchen is well-equipped. There were four of us in the spacious apartment. We can only recommend the property. It is certainly an advantage if you have a rental car to explore the beautiful surroundings independently.

Great location, comfortable condo, convenient pool and very helpful and friendly security guard, Hector. He is the best!

Big Marlin is magical! The location and house are dreamy. Its a lovely walk into town along the beach, and views from the house are delightful. Adrian the host is extremly responsive and helpful, and Roxanne the housekeeper who lives on site is just remarkable. I look forward to our next years stay already.

Jake's place was perfect for our family of six. The home is beautiful with open space and lots of natural light. The beds were comfortable. We loved the back porch with the big porch swing and tables. This place is just as described and the perfect location for a quiet stay at the top of the mountain.

Can’t beat this location for proximity to the beach, restaurants, coffee shops and surfboard rental. The accommodations are comfortable with a great yard and pool. We really enjoyed our stay. Alex was very responsive, a welcoming host who even helped us out with our laundry. The parking is secure. We can’t wait to come back again!

Excellent home to relax away from locations with high occupation. The house has everything you will need for a pleasant stay.
