Nosara Paradise Rental's houses are in a campus layout directly next to a nature preserve, about 800 meters from the beach.
Nosara
Nosara, Costa Rica is one of the oldest expatriate communities in the country, as well as a world-class fishing and surfing destination. Its population is a blend of local Ticos, long-term foreign residents, and a constant flow of tourists from all corners of the globe.
Nosara Paradise Rentals has welcomed guests from Australia, the Far East, Russia, England, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Brazil, Argentina, Canada, and all over the United States. Nosara is a very unique and authentic town - a blend of surfing, low-key tourism (shops and restaurants, but no giant hotels, casinos, golf courses) and as such is very safe and family friendly.
So much interest abroad in yoga, surfing, fishing, and ecotourism has turned Nosara into a crossroad of the world. Modern developments share fences with untouched ancient rainforests. The nightlife is full of interesting bars, carnivals, dances, fiestas, and rodeos (see picture) where the meeting of different cultures takes on a festival tone.
Unlike most coastal tourist towns, Nosara lacks large-scale development directly on the beach as much of it consists of the Ostional Wildlife Refuge. The official town center is located six kilometers inland from the beach. Within "Nosara town" is the market, pharmacy, post office, churches, school, police station, public library, and Red Cross clinic. There is a Banco Popular branch located in the small commercial area near Playa Guiones.
This entire area is a 'Blue Zone' meaning no unnatural pesticides or industrial chemicals are permitted.
Nosara and the nearby towns (Esperanza, Pelada, Garza, Guiones) are 30 kilometers off of the main paved highway, and the secluded nature of the land has created a lifestyle that centers around clean living and strong family values. Major crime is virtually non-existent and the local economy offers well-paying jobs in both the tourism industry and traditional crafts such as farming, woodcraft, and commerce. The citizens of Nosara are very accommodating to tourism and exhibit the "Pura Vida!" spirit in their everyday lives.
