Dining 

 

 

Many local and international cuisine dining options now are available to visitors to Nosara.

Some of our favorites are:

  • Rosi's Soda and Rancho Tico provide great local staples perfect after a solid surf workout
  • Il Basilico and Il Peperoni are your go to for pizzas and pastas
  • Beach Dog Cafe and Burgers & Beer for your western hunger fix
  • Al Chile and El Chivo both offer great Mexican food (and margaritas...) 
  • La Fonda and El Colibri are two excellent Argentinian steakhouses in the area 
  • Harmony Hotel and La Luna are more higher end dining experiences with the latter having the best sunset dining in the area!

Our Favorites

So in addition to the above, we love and recommend the following adventure and social activities! 

  • Pack a picnic and drive up to Playa San Juanillo (30-40 minutes) for a beautiful day on the beach in protected waters or venture a bit further north to Tiki Hut at Marbella!
  • Rent some quad bikes and take a day trip down to Playa Garza, stopping in at Garza Beach Lounge (live music on Sundays!) for a nice fresh meal or pizza with beachfront cocktail views.
