We spent 3 nights here and loved the Lodge. The owners are hands-on and lovely; the breakfast buffet and cooked-to-order choices were amazing; the room was lovely but the weather was so hot we couldn't get it cool (make sure you book a/c room); the sunset bar was great and the views from the Lodge are wonderful. Stay here if... More

I was a little disappointed when I arrived to Lagarta Lodge at first because we were not directly on the beach. However, once I entered the gate and saw the breathtaking scenery, I can see why this is a five star hotel. We had room number 8 which was absolutely beautiful. It had a private terrace overlooking the preserve with... More

The Logarta Lodge is set on a bluff overlooking the beaches of Nosara. The views from the rooms are spectacular and the use of glass, individual patios with the rooms and public terraces take full advantage of the vast costal scene laid before your eyes. Even if you don't stay at the lodge, their Sunset Bar is a wonderful place... More

We were searching for a place to stay on our driving trip up the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica when we saw the sign for Hotel Lagarta Lodge. As we drove up this long winding dirt road we started to have doubts about what we'd find and if we'd even stay there. What a surprise when we discovered this little... More

Friends had stayed at La Lagarta and suggested that we had to go there for a sunset drink and dinner during our stay in Nosara. They were right! Drinks at the sunset bar with its incredible view is an experience that is not to be missed. A lovely dinner served by the owners followed. The road makes getting there difficult... More

We arrived at 5:00 p.m. after driving close to five hours and Regina greeted us with a welcoming smile, We were urged to head to shake off the day with a welcome cocktail at the Sunset Bar and that's exactly what we did. A mojito never tasted so good. The lodge is beautifully situated and you could spend your entire... More

We stayed here for 4 nights. After arriving by bus on foot and staggering up a long winding road to the lodge we were amazed to see how luxurious it was (at least compared to our normal backpacking standard). The beautiful view over the river confluence, the pool and the sunset bar all were really special. We also really enjoyed... More

I stayed here with my husband in early January 2012. The land was stunning, with a mountaintop view of the beach and the surrounding biological refuge. The hotel is situated about 15 minutes walk from the beach, 30 minutes walk from the town of Nosara. If you have a car, it is a convenient drive to town, but be careful... More

We had such a relaxing time at this lodge in the small town of Nosara. I loved the spacious veranda overlooking the nature preserve and the river. Such a lovely common space to sip a beverage, hang out with family, and eat breakfast and dinner (both of which were delicious), and check email (they have wifi). The location is amazing... More
