Room was really beautifully designed. When you walked in it had the most amazing smell. The bed was huge, with super soft and crisp white sheets, ac was quiet. We had the best sleep of our lives here! Staff was super welcoming. The grounds were lush green and the overall vibe here was relaxing, which is what we were looking for.
The room had some really great features, like a big window and a balcony
Cute lights that cast a really cool design onto the ceiling when lit and put in motion
Breakfasts were on the smaller side, but after a few days I realized the portions were actually ok. I wished I knew I could order 2 items from the menu from the start
If I would improve anything, it would be the size of the bread - it was cut beautifully into smaller rectangles leaving me wanting the rest of it. Every morning, I would be like… where is tge rest of this delicious bread slice? !

Esh was a really lovely place to spend my time in Nosara. The staff were beyond friendly and courteous, making me feel super welcome and taken care of. The rooms and design of the resort are beautiful, and the way they preserved the jungle and built around it creates a really beautiful and peaceful space. I will definitely be back again. Thank you so much to everyone at Esh for making my stay so lovely.

This hotel was wonderful. Nestled in the jungle, the minimalist architecture and stylings encouraged contemplation. The services were top notch, the support outstanding, the beds comfortable and the facilities high quality. The breakfast was delicious, fresh and filling - it was included but was easily worth $25 per person minimum. The yoga classes were very good, the sauna and cold plunge available all day, and the staff super friendly. Thanks for an amazing stay, we hope to be back!

This property was absolutely amazing and the pictures do not do it any justice. Prepare to feel luxurious from the look and ambiance to the amenities offered. It is located in the middle of the jungle so the connection to the wilderness was closer than expected and very free so expect to freely see them roam. The staff were amazing and very patient!! They accommodated and resolved any issue that transpired and were so friendly and welcoming. From the owner, to the waiters and bartender to the other circulating staff members; they practically became family! This establishment is a huge 10 out of 10 for me and highly suggested so book early because they do tend to fill up fast.

Had the best massage at the spa. Also loved the restaurant/bar near the pool. Great food and drinks. I ate every taco they have and they were all genuinely delicious. Can't say enough good things.

This is a brand new boutique hotel so parts were unfinished (like the spa though in-room spa services were available). We had a standard king room close to the pool. It’s comfortable with indoor/outdoor shower, plenty of closet space and a mini fridge. The outdoor space is quite small but we spent most of our time on the loungers at the pool area which is lovely. The management and staff are very welcoming and helpful.
