About Nosara:
Nosara is stunning jungle wildness and peaceful meditation places.
Nosara is surf, sand and sun along with mountain waterfalls and hiking trails.
Nosara is down-to-earth friendly plus upscale restaurants and neighborhoods.
Nosara is artists, yogis and healers living side-by-side with jet setters from around the globe.
Nosara has an enchanting tropical atmosphere that also offers comforts of home to whatever degree you desire.
Adventure seekers came to Nosara, twenty, thirty, forty years ago to settle in this slice of tropical heaven. The area is wrapped around several of the best beaches in the country. In 1962, an American investor began creating his vision called the “American Project.” The Americano Projecto was a 500-lot development with electric power, water systems and connecting roads. This is now the longest established American ex-pat community in Costa Rica. And that was just the beginning.
Nosara is in the Peninsula de Nicoya in the Pacific Northwest of Costa Rica. It includes the town of Nosara plus the beach areas of Playa Guiones, Playa Pelada and Playa Nosara. The first 250 yards from the coastline are protected so you won’t find high-rise chain hotels claiming these beaches. Yards of jungle brush, palm trees, green vegetation teeming with howler monkeys, iguanas and colorful birds buffer the sun-drenched beaches from civilization. The white sand invites you to laze all day (use your sunscreen). Or spend hours in the warm Pacific waters surfing, paddleboarding or just floating in bliss. And don’t miss the majestic orange-splashed sunsets that fill your senses almost every night.
Small Tico cottages and large ocean-view luxury homes share the Nosara hillsides and dirt roads. Discover the small boutique hotels, unusual shops, cozy cafes and outdoor restaurants serving creative cuisine and the freshest local catch of the day. Nosara has evolved with a unique individual blueprint that no other Costa Rican town can replicate.
Nosara’s tourist-friendly persona welcomes you to explore, play and relax amid the most vibrant tropical atmosphere you’ll encounter. Experience a thrilling zipline ride from one mountain to the next. Do your yoga practice in the Treetops Studio of the world acclaimed Nosara Yoga Institute. Surf the incredibly consistent surf break of Playa Guiones over 300 days a year. Horseback ride along low tide or nod off in a swaying hammock in the beach breezes. So many choices, not enough time.
Nosara had been under the radar for many Costa Rican travelers in the past, but with major articles in the New York Times, BBC, National Geographic Traveler and other widely read publications, the popularity of this magical destination is rising to the top of world travelers’ awareness.
You come to Nosara for the same reason that those other adventure seekers came years ago: to immerse yourself in the best tropical paradise in Costa Rica. But now you are not off the grid. You will live and revel in all the creature comforts you want as the new Nosara expands and grows into one of the smartest destinations for savvy travelers and investors.

Surfing in Nosara, Costa Rica:

Bring your long boards, your paddleboards, your short boards and take advantage of the many surfing experiences you can have in Nosara, Costa Rica.
Surfers from all over the globe travel to catch one of the most consistent breaks on the planet. With choices of three or four beaches or a boat trip out to Witch’s Rock, you can’t go wrong if multi-days of surfing are on your agenda while you are here in Nosara.
Early morning and late afternoon brings the biggest waves to your feet. The drastic differences between low tides and high tides will decide what shape and intensity your surf session will bring. Shoulder high to overhead is the norm, with many bonus days of swells larger than that.
For the dedicated, experienced surfer, paddle to the outside for a carousel of swell; the inside breaks provide consistently gentle peaks and white water, making room for the beginners and surf schools to start teaching a new generation of boarders.
Check out all the established surf schools in Nosara for beginners to advanced and take advantage of the know-how on where, when and how to surf the waves of Nosara.
The most popular beaches to surf in Nosara are:
Playa Guiones sets you up best at high tides and in the morning or late evening hours. Don’t be surprised to see double overhead surf on many days. At Guiones, you’ll spend your cherished board time on the most consistent sand bottom break around.
Playa Pelada has a rock reef point break on its north side so get out on Pelada waves when the tides come in.
Playa Nosara’s (the Rivermouth) shallow rock reefs puts you some barrels. Best time is with south swells.
Playa Ostional gives you both rights and lefts from its beach break and reef break. Head there at high tide.
Witch’s Rock was made famous in Endless Summer II and brings you amazing world-renowned surfing. Arrange for a boat tour to take you out to its sand-bottomed beach break that gives you some of the best surfing ever.
Surfing in Nosara is a mind-blowing experience. Put it first on your MUST DO list when you are here.

Perfect location near Playa Guiones

We spent a week at the property and all three generations loved the house. We were able to get to the beach in less than 5 minutes and the indoor and outdoors spaces provided plenty of room for everyone to relax and find their own space. Laird met us at check-in and was available for any questions. We would definitely stay at the property again during a future trip.

Wonderful Nosara Stay

We had a fantastic week at Casa Regreso. Location was great close to the beach and Bodhi Tree. The hosue itself was perfect for large meals with the family and relaxing by the pool. Sabrina and Laird were extremely helpful in advance of check in and through the week in coordinating activities. Would 10/10 return. Thank you!

Beach House Perfection

Out group of 10 had the most relaxing stay at Casa El Regresso. The short walk to the beach and the backyard pool were the highlights of our week. The outdoor shower was great to rinse the sand off before jumping in the pool. The ping pong table allowed for many hours of entertainment. The interior of the home was clean and beautiful and perfectly set up for 2 families. The area felt very safe and often our kids would ride the bikes to get smoothies. We would absolutely stay here again!

Our family trip to Nosara was very memorable. Casa Regreso is a special house steps away from the beach. Laird and Sabrina made our stay special from arranging grocery delivery, to scheduling a private chef to cook up a dinner for our whole family using fresh local seafood. Highly recommend!

Wonderful holiday

Perfect house for our family holiday. The kitchen is very well equipped for those interested in having some meals at home and we enjoyed leisurely brunches outside by the pool. The proximity to the beach was fantastic- and we loved our early morning surfing lessons with Agua Tibia and our evening sunset on the beach. Lots of wonderful restaurants within walking distance as is the amazing Bodhi Tree for yoga, spinning etc

Ideal two family house close to the beach

We had a great week in Playa Guiones and it was all because of how great this house was, how perfect the location was and how accommodating the house manager and his wife were! The house has a great layout for two families - two masters, one up and one down, a huge bunk room for all the kids and another guest room that we used for our mother in law. The pool was WARM which is sometimes hard to find and it was a really short walk to the beach. There are bikes in the garage that you can use to get around but I would recommend renting a golf cart too - we used it so much, we decided to get rid of our rental car a couple days in. The Bodhi Tree is within walking distance and the Beach Dog Cafe, but most of the restaurants are around the Guilded Iguana area and you would want a golf cart or another form of transportation to get over there (still fairly close!) I can’t say enough nice things about Laird and Maria - they were super accommodating with booking our golf carts, horseback riding, airport shuttle, chef for dinners, etc. If we ever needed anything or had a question, they responded immediately! I would highly recommend Casa El Regreso and hope to be able to come back again!

Paradise in Playa Guiones

Laird and Maria where extremely helpful with the entire process. From the house details and arranging the airport transfer to local knowledge and where to go, everything was better than expected. The house is awesome and the pictures are as good as the real thing. Playa Guiones is off the beaten path and perfect for those wanting to get away but still have your creature comforts. We will definitely stay at Casa el Regreso again!

About the host

Hosted by Laird MacDonald

Host profile image
This house was custom built and finished in June 2017. We have many repeat guests and people that have been coming to Nosara for many years. We are both humbled and proud to say that a number of them have said that this is the "best property in Nosara." After many trips and rentals with our, then, younger children we set out to create a luxurious yet comfortable family space. It is important to us that our guests, upon entering, will feel the house is exactly what they hoped for.

Why they chose this property

Super close to beach, two large masters so two families (parents) don't have to sacrifice - each can have their own oasis. Attention to detail and thoughtful conveniences for easy beach and surf living. Outdoor shower with surfboard hosing area and surf racks in garage for storage. Excellent security and just a nice place to be.

Cleanliness has come to the forefront of conversations of late. A home in this tropical climate is always trying to keep the jungle out with the most environmentally friendly methods possible so extreme clean has always been the practice. The design of the home was intentional to have every thing light, open, and easily cleaned.
