The Harmony Hotel is the perfect combination of low-key luxury, personal wellness, and authentic connection to the unique natural setting of the Costa Rican Pacific coast. Located on Guiones Beach in Nosara, the Harmony is a stone’s throw from a pristine surf break with consistent year-round waves, ideal for a surfing adventure for any level. You can bring your own board, or borrow one of ours from the surf rack on your way out to the beach. Our 24 guest accommodations—each with indoor and outdoor space—are nestled in lush gardens of native plants that afford plenty of opportunities for wildlife sightings. Two secluded 3-bedroom villas with private entrances offer the utmost privacy with easy access to the hotel grounds. The Harmony Healing Centre is designed as a place of restoration, nurturing and peace with a full menu of all-natural, handmade treatments and an open-air yoga studio. The on-site Restaurant and Juice Bar showcase the bounty of the region using fresh ingredients, and our large outdoor pool offers the perfect spot to lounge away a warm afternoon.

The Harmony Hotel was gorgous when they built it but it is getting a little worn and for the price they are asking you would expect it to be first class. I was there their first year but now is looks bad. The gardens need some attention and the buildings as well. Great idea with the eco friendly concept but the execution needs work.

Harmony hotel does everything right. It is not an inexpensive spot but it is definitely worth it. The property is beautiful, the staff are there to assist with everything you could need while you're in Nosara and the food is the best in Costa Rica (in my opinion). They have an amazing Sushi Bar, in addition to their already impressive menu. We can't wait to go back!

Seven guys, all 40+ went to Nosara for a Surf vacation. Nosara was experiencing its poorest quality waves in 10 years. We had the best surf vacation of our lives, thanks to the staff and location.

My wife and I spent 3 nights at the Harmony Hotel. We found the hotel grounds to be in immaculate condition. From the Rooms to the pool to the restaurant area it was perfect. The hotel is not cheap but you get what you pay for. Breakfast is included and they have several options not just some buffet with a bunch of fruit. The on site restaurant in my opinion was the best in town. You don't even have to leave the property if you don't want to. The pool was very relaxing and probably one of the most refreshing pools Iv been in. Its a combination of salt and fresh water. Im not extremely familiar with the technical terms but It was very unique. The beach is just a 2 minute walk down a sandy path. The surfing is great in front of the hotel and you can rent a board at a surf

The Harmony Hotel is located in a quiet beautiful Pacific region of the Nicoya Peninsula where consistent surf and natural beauty bring surfers and travelers who enjoy tranquility. The hotel is designed and operated to offer a peaceful, ecologically responsible comfortable retreat from the world at large. They are very successful in doing this, by the lovely comfortable tropical feel of the buildings and through their excellent staff. Rooms are spacious, the location is excellent and the amenities will spoil you from wireless access in the comfy lounge area where you can sip on fresh fruit smoothies, to the top notch Wellness Center with massage, yoga and a juice bar. The restaurant serves healthy fresh meals, delicious seafood, great breakfasts and surfboard racks near the

We booked a yoga and surf holiday with Vajrasol http://www.vajrasoltravel.com and it was perfect. We surfed in the morning and did yoga in the afternoon. Hotel was so quiet, unspoilt and relaxing and great menu for vegetarians. I would recommend this for anyone who wants to get away from city and breathe a little of the jungle/sea air. Beautiful.

This is a Costa Rican version of that classic international formula: a coconut beach with a hotel built around a pool and a bar. It is nice. The gardens are beautiful, the rooms are well appointed and comfortable, the pool is well sited with outdoor showers hidden across the property, the store actually stocks excellent books, the staff are generally helpful . . . plus it's the only hotel I have ever been to that has a dedicated surf board concierge. It seems to work for all groups - parents with teenagers, families with younger kids, honeymooners, singles. Everyone finds their place and no one dominates. We were happy. My only negative comment is that the restaurant is very marginal. They sell basically the same food as most everywhere else around there only they charge

We spent 16 days in Costa Rica, the first week at the Harmony. It was beautiful. The staff were kind, helpful and genuinely wanted the guests to have a wonderful time. The Harmony is pricey, but worth it. We were traveling with a 14 yr old, and felt totally comfortable letting him explore on his own, GREAT security. Rooms were comfy and cozy, howler monkeys greated us with a "wake up call" every morning. Pool area was great. Beach was great, grounds were beautiful. There were lots of dining options close by. They do not serve any soda type beverages, so I found myself bringing my own Diet Coke to the bar. Breakfast was included and was good. They could expand the menu a little. That goes for lunch and dinner too. Must do in Nosara is Miss Sky Canopy tour, AWESOME Check

The Harmony is definitely the nicest hotel in town. It's in the best location in Nosara and perfect for surfers because they have a guard who stands guard over the surfboards 24/7!!! They also have another shack on the beach with someone to watch your shoes/wallet, etc. which is really nice. The breakfast was included and was full breakfast (pancakes, french toast, omelettes, smoothies, etc) so that was amazing. The Coco rooms are pretty small but nice and although they are off the pool next to the restaurant they close around 9 and turn off the lights outside your door. We did end up moving to a bungalow because we like the extra space to lay our wet clothes out. The yoga is nice and the Healing Center was great as well. We suggest having a car in this area because
