We loved everything about our stay at La Joya Jade! The location is perfect….easy walking to either Playa Pelada and Playa Guiones and both beaches are great. All the amenities are fabulous and we especially enjoyed the beautiful pool, the perfectly outfitted kitchen, and the outdoor shower/tub. Thank you also for the little touches of hospitality…quality shower soaps and conditioner, nice linens, comfortable bed, ground coffee, and the wonderful assortment of fruit and melons.

Great beach location
Loved this property! It he manager, Tiffany, was lovely, welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. This is a return trip to Nosara and the property served all our needs Pura Vida!
We hate to write such a great review because we selfishly don’t want everyone to know how great this place was. That first impressions when you step onto the property, is how clean and well-kept it was. The pool area with the rancho was fantastic, and the casita itself was beautiful and clean. Equally as great as the property were the hosts, Julia and Bill do a fantastic job making you feel welcome and taking care of. We feel like we made great friends in a very short period of time and can’t wait for our next trip back.
