“Fantasy Island, with great hosts (sans midget!)”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

I didn't want to make this another spectacular review for Villa Mango, but I couldn't resist! It is simply the best place I have ever stayed. My wife and I wanted to recover from a brutal couple of months, and after a few days, the stress of life 'up north' was totally forgotten. Jungle setting: we saw monkeys within feet of our room, as well as a giant iguana; there's a coati named Junior that eats breakfast with you. Excellent "fung shui" with clear view of the ocean from many rooms as well as the pool. We can second all the other great comments about breakfast, etc. Although we did nothing but read, sleep, eat, and drink, there are lots of activities and everyone seems to like them.

We especially want to thank Agnes and Jo,who are the greatest hosts of a hotel ever! I was flabbergasted by how many return guests they have, of all nationalities and ages. They took great care of a couple with a newborn, and treated one older repeat guest with a degenerative disease like their own aunt. We liked them so much we took them out to dinner! When was the last time you treated the manager of a hotel like that? We are leaving in two days and are plotting how to stay here forever.....

Room Tip: We stayed in the newly built Congo room (second ones to stay there). It's a fantastic suite with...

“Like staying with friends”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

Agnes and Jo are wonderful hosts who welcome you into their home and introduce you to Nosara just as old friends do - with warmth, consideration and love. Their B&B is clean and beautiful, and the breakfasts are fantastic. Our 5 year old son was at home here - and Agnes and Jo were just wonderful with him. Jo took me on an unforgettable sunset ride on the beach with their horses Mahala and Fuego. Not once did he laugh at me for pretending to know how to handle a horse! What a gentleman! We shared laughs, drinks and conversations on the patio. It is a place I'd surely visit time and again. One note: it's best to have a car in Nosara. The roads are dusty and steep.

“Great place, lovely people.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2011

I enjoyed my holiday break at Villa Mango very much. Agnes and Jo are very friendly and helpful. Nice room and nice staff. Breakfasts were delicious and plenty. A very nice stay I will recommend this place to my friends - and will go back as soon as I can.

“A wonderful place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 July 2011

person found this review helpful

The hotel is awesome. It's full of mangoes trees and if you are lucky, Congo monkeys eat fruit in front of your room (priceless!). The breakfast that they serve is the best that we tried in all the hotels and resorts we stayed during our three weeks trip (we visited 8 different hotels!) but, the reason why they are outstanding are Agnes & Joe, the owners. They are just wonderful people pleased to share their knowledge about the environment with you. They made our trip went further, they created memories!
