Hostel Nicoa

Had a blast here thanks to Federico, the hostel owner. Hospitality was through the roof and he made me feel very comfortable and accommodated right away. Place was awesome with ac, kitchen, and pool. Although the beach is too far of a walk, Federico had a guy that would drive you to and from the beach for cheap.

Amazing Place! Owner is kind and helpful!

Only stayed one night but cozy hostel and probably nicest place that’s cheap in nosara!! Enjoyed my stay very much!!

Muy bonito lugar y muy amable la gente. Gracias por el lindo hospedaje.

Hostel Nicoa felt like a family home to me. Federico really goes above and beyond to make his guests feel like home and includes everyone at the hostel in group conversations and activities. He was really born to do this. It was a very special part of my trip so much in fact that I actually ended up coming back a week after I left just to spend some time back at the Hostel before I took my flight back home. It was very clean and i slept so well too.

Fantastic hostel! I came for 3 nights and decided to stay 2 more. Quiet location surrounded by nature and wildlife, we had a bbq pretty much every night

I had a really great stay at Hostel Nicoa. The owner is a very great guy and can tell you everything you need to know about Nosara.

Good place for a cheap stay in Nosara, Fede, the owner, was very helpful with everything I needed. I checked in super late and he gave me the full tour of the place, the bed was clean and the kitchen had everything you need to cook a proper meal. He also helped me out with recommendations of places to eat in town

I loved my time at Hostel Nicoa and highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a quiet space in nature. The staff was fabulous and provided a community/family atmosphere. The pool was refreshing, beds were comfortable, plus the bicycles and laundry facilities were included!

Was such a great stay! So cool to be out of the main part of Nosara and have a more authentic Costa Rican experience. It was also still easy to get to town with the tuk tuks. Frederico and the staff were so welcoming! Had a lot of fun learning acro yoga from Leo. Was so nice to meet other travels and the experience was just so wholesome! One of the best hostels and most unique hostels I’ve ever stayed at.

This hostel felt more like I was renting an airbnb with a couple of friends. Frederico was super helpful with everything and you can tell he loved to have people around. I rented an atv and went to a few beaches that he had recommended me! I loved staying here but I do recommend getting a way of transportation because everything is far (tuktuks are available but can get expensive)

Stayed for one night, was late due to a traffic accident but Federico was still there to invite me in after hours and ensure I was settled. Enjoyed morning coffee and breakfast with him and his cats before continuing on my journey. Well recommended for a quite stay outside of the core of Nosara.

I loved this place and had a really good stay! It's very clean and calm, and lots of beautiful nature around. Federico is an amazing host, super helpful and nice. There was free coffee and fruits available in the morning which was also lovely. Overall a really good vibe, I wish I could have stayed longer!

Gesamthaft gute Unterkunft! Host wat super-sympathisch und hilfsbereit. Sauberkeit und Haus in Schweizer-Qualität:) Die Lage ist eher etwas abgelegen, aber alle die Einheimischen sind stets offen und nehmen einen gerne mit in Richtung Strand oder Zentrum (oder Taxi/Tuk tuk) ausserdem ist es dafür schön ruhig und friedlich in der Gegend. Kann es zu 100% empfehlen und kehre bestimmt auch wieder zurück :) Liebe Grüsse

No hot water, no ac until 10pm, empty, pool was green and owner left and locked the place on a Friday night.

I loved my stay at this hostel! It had a very homey vibe that made me feel really comfortable. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy, welcoming place to stay.

Excelente, el anfitrión es una gran persona, da gusto hablar y siempre está atento ante cualquier necesidad! Muy recomendable

El dueño de la casa da muchas recomendaciones, ayuda con el transporte, esta muy atento de que los huéspedes están a gusto. El lugar es tranquilo, verde, la piscina es agradable, y realmente no estás tan lejos de los sitios, simplemente necesitas un tuktuk. Los otros huéspedes encantadores. Recomendamos mucho que de queden aquí!!

Very good hostel! Federico is very kind and helpful with everything. And you feel welcome in the hostel. Also the pool is a plus. In total a very nice hostel for staying in Nosara.

We had a very good stay, a very quiet and clean establishment. The pool is a real asset. Thank you for the welcome
