Great folks, wonderful breakfast, super clean.
The folks at Green Sanctuary are lovely and efficient. The young woman who greeted us at 6pm was helpful and kind. Breakfast was amazing!!! I had the Tico Special and it was huge and delicious. The only downside is the construction happening a few feet away on the other side of the wall which divides the property. Constant banging metal and drilling from 7am onwards. The Green Sanctuary folks have created a sweet and reasonably priced oasis, converting shipping containers into rooms, and sadly, with the overdevelopment currently happening in this area, their oasis sounds like a construction zone during the day. I feel very sorry that this is happening as their patch is beautifully maintained and managed.

Very nice container room in well kept grounds. The area surrounding the property was nice with lots of wildlife to observe from the pool area. Although there were a few dining options in easy walking distance from the hotel, the area did not feel entirely safe as evening approached. Staff helpful in arranging ride from airport and to follow up destination and really enjoyed our stay. Recommended.

Great place for the cost.
Great place particularly for the price. Room size is adequate and we’ll appointed. Grounds are beautiful and the people are, well this is Costa Rica, wonderful. Easy parking out front and an easy walk to the beach. A bit of a walk to town but being out on top of the hill has its advantages in quiet too!

Me and my wife stayed here for 5 days and it was perfect. Close to the beach and we went to a few beaches but the one near the place was the best one. Staff was super friendly. We had looked at a lot of places before choosing this one and drove by them during our visit and were soooooo glad we chose Green Sanctuary after seeing the other places in this price range. We ate at amazing restaurants that were all close. La Luna on the beach and Huacas in the hills. Both were formal and need reservations but reasonably priced. Beach dog is a casual dining place with the beach vibe but also great food and atmosphere. Stay at Green Sanctuary you will not be disappointed!!!!

Do not stay here!!!!
Do not stay at this place!!!! Sheets were dirty. AC did not work the first night. They tried to scam me and another desk after our stay with claims of broken coffee pots. Neither of us made coffee and they sent us both the same picture. It is far from everything and not a comfortable stay. Go somewhere else! They have you pay when you get there. I suspect that is so people won’t just leave.

Beautiful property with lush landscaping, nice pool and not too far from the beach or restaurants. However, they didn’t have running water for the majority of our stay. It’s not entirely their fault as there is a water shortage in the area, but they didn’t notify us ahead of time to make other arrangements and they also failed to mention it when we checked in. It could be a great place if they get the water situation figured out.

My husband and I stayed at Green Sanctuary during our first visit to Costa Rica. We wanted something low maintenance, affordable, but clean, safe and convenient. This place exceeded our expectations. The staff members are lovely, personable and helpful. The rooms had everything we needed, were clean and comfortable and air conditioned. The breakfast was to die for - absolutely delicious. If you’re looking for a comfortable place to stay while you spend most of your days at the beach (surfing w the Coconut Harry’s guys!!!) or elsewhere, this is perfect. We didn’t rent a car and found that we didn’t need one. It was about 10-15 mins walking to the beach, and after the sun went down it was easy enough to find a Tuk Tuk to take us back. Cannot recommend enough. Wish we could live there forever!!!

Do not trust the pics or reviews
Pictures are quite deceiving…the place is a little run down but with ok service. Main complaint is that we did not have a functioning toilet (which also leaked) and no warm water. We were not the only ones without a toilet. We were happy to be able to leave after one night and will not return.

My flight got cancelled, and the airline didn't habe any more flights in the next 5 days to Costa Rica, so I had to cancel all my bookings. I was able to reach other hotels and adventure companies to talk about the cancellation, but only Green Sanctuary Hotel didn't have anyone to answer the phone call, Whatsapp chat, nor Expedia messages. I tried to reach them for 2 whole days, never once they returned my call/message. Terrible, terrible customer services.

A Different Vibe
The Nosara area is a maze of rough dirt roads with only informal signage. It takes a bit of time to learn your way around. GPS is very helpful. The host was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was wonderful. Container construction makes for unusual and smallish rooms. The pool is attractive but cool because it is shaded by the jumgle surrounding the hotel.
