Silvestre Nosara Hotel & Residences

Silvestre Nosara is neither a conventional hotel nor a mere holiday rental: it is a high-touch retreat designed by surfers for travellers who want luxury without losing the laid-back rhythm of Guanacaste’s Pacific coast. Opened in February 2024, the property occupies a discreet free-hold lot beside Playa Guiones, famed for one of the planet’s most reliable surf breaks. Its nine 1,000-sq-ft residences couple king- and queen-sized bedrooms with full kitchens, washer-dryers and private terraces equipped with barrel saunas and ice baths. Daily breakfast appears in the fridge, a custom Jim Banks performance board is waiting in the rack, and resident coaches analyse your pop-up back at the rooftop bar after sunset sessions.
