Nosara Gem
I have been visiting Nosara for over 10 years, the last 3 years staying at this property. Location, property condition and property management are the best. The house is very clean and well maintained and the property manager Annabelle is super responsive. The location in South Guiones is quiet and very close to the beach.

Amazing house in perfect location
Three families shared this house for a week and we loved every minute of it. Most of us surfed every day and the beach was very close. We also hired the private chef to make dinners for us four nights of our stay and the food was delicious. It was so nice walking to the beach to watch the sunset and then coming home to a delicious meal served in the beautiful outdoor space. I really can't imagine anything that could improve this house, we really thought it was perfect. Annabelle the manager of the property was very helpful and really everyone that we dealt with was great. Would highly recommend and we hope to stay here again in the future.

About the host

Host profile image
Hola! It is with pleasure to find out that you are interested in Makaira Mazara. I grew up in New Jersey and now live in New York City. My background was as a Big Four consultant and then as an executive and CFO in the computer security industry. I spend four-to-five months a year down in Nosara and have come to love the area. I am an avid fisherman and think the variety and productivity of fishing in Costa Rica is unparalleled. With everything to do / see / explore in the area, the main reasons I enjoy spending time in Nosara are the people and the community. The diversity of the ex-pat community is fascinating, and the locals could not be nicer, more welcoming and friendlier. It is truly a special place!

Why they chose this property

I have put my blood, sweat and tears into the house and property. It has become a labor of love and there's nothing better than sharing my home and meeting new people. Many are shocked when they see the transformation of the house over the years. I am constantly updating, maintaining and re-investing in the property in order to ensure it is clean, comfortable, beautiful and updated with amenities that guests look for when visiting (internet, water tank, new linens, etc.). I take great pride in the house and am an active owner on-top of what's going on in the house, around the property and in the community. All with the intent to make it a special place for family, friends and guests to come down and relax as they soak in all that Nosara has to offer. Pura Vida!
