Jungle's Edge

I enjoyed my stay at Jungles Edge this August. It is low season during that time because of the rain, but during my 9 days I only had about 2/3 heavy rain days. The food at Jungles Edge was amazing and fresh prepared throughout the day even when it was just for me, and everyone was very kind. It is easy to walk to Playa Guiones (20min), and with a tuktuk you're even quicker. Hopefully you can cath a sunset over there. Be prepared for mosquitos during the day outside, but not so much in your room. I did boxing/muay thai and made good progress with training from Lucas. The surf is really great, for all levels but I recommend first time with an instructor/local who knows the spot. I would like to come back here another time! :)

We initially booked one night in a glamping hut and booked a second night while there as we enjoyed it so much. The huts are sparkling clean with comfortable beds and bedding. The fans at night kept it cool and comfortable. The pool is beautiful and well-maintained. While a bit a walk from the beach, it’s manageable in running shoes. Apart from when walking on the beach, I recommend wearing running shoes when walking anywhere in Nosara as they protect your feet and prevent falls on loose gravel. The food and service at Jungle’s Edge is professional and friendly. Finally, the price is good for the amenities and experience of staying in a glamping hut!

Great place on the edge of Nosara! Rene and Dave are superb hosts they took wonderful care of me. Stayed in a Bamboo Deluxe room which was just what I needed amazingly comfortable bed! Was there to do yoga and could walk to Bodhi Tree each morning than on to Nosara. They were always there when I got back in the afternoon with a drink and suggestions. Looking forward to go back next year when I do a Spanish course.

I stayed at Jungle's Edge (JE) last week for 7 days as a single traveler as I was going to Nosara for the first time not knowing the area. I did know I wanted to be near the Nosara Spanish Institute and Bodhi Yoga which is why I chose JE. I'm 1000% glad I did book my stay because it exceeded my expectations. When I first arrived, I wasn't sure what to expect going up the dirt road from the main road. With the sign "Jungle's Edge" hanging overhead and the jungle right afterwards, it was like I was going into Jurassic Park. This place definitely is at the jungle's edge because you can hear howler monkeys, birds and all other kinds of animals. Going into the main reception and dining area, I was blown away by the tall ceilings with wood beams and greenery everywhere. I met Dave the owner who's one of the nicest people I met during this trip along with Freddy who works there. I booked a "jungle room" directly through their site as I had other plans in Nosara and couldn't take full advantage of their all inclusive plans. The "Jungle Room" is very nice for the price $80/night at the time I booked. It has a large comfortable and very high bed. I'm not that tall so I had to do a little jump to get on. LOL. The A/C was strong and COLD which is very important while you're down in Nosara as the humidity can be high at times. Be warned, you are in the jungle so you might encounter some ants in your room. One or two here or there, not a whole colony. But I was never bothered once but don't leave food out. The shower is very unique as it's made of cement and stones so it's a little uneven, reminds you that you are somewhere different. Which I liked. I did take one boxing class with their new boxing/muay thai instructure, Doug who is an excellent teacher. I am 48 and have been working from home for the past 3 years so I am not in the best shape. Doug was great at motivating me to work hard but also knowing my limit and not exhausting me to complete failure. The dojo is very nice, open air and the floor is padded with various punching bags. I highly recommend taking a class with Doug!! Tell him Julius sent you. Overall, if you do the all inclusive retreat or just stay in one of the rooms, you won't be disappointed. Just remember you are at the jungle's edge so you'll be right next to nature.

Overall, my husband and I had a great experience. What struck us the most was how helpful every staff members were, from the owners to Eric and Chanil at the front desk! They assisted us for transport and made sure we have a romantic ambiance for Valentine’s day. The food is perfecto, everything is fresh from the garden! The passionfruit pie is from now on my new favorite desert!!!!!

I stayed here as part of a group for Muay Thai Vacations in mid-January. Jungle's Edge is by far one of the most pleasant places I've stayed. Dave and the staff are friendly, helpful, and service oriented. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. The food is delicious and there was a huge variety. I stayed in the bungalows and they have a rustic, camping vibe but are.cleaned daily and very comfortable. The training area is spacious with a nice view. It's only a short walk to town or the beach. Overall I would 100% recommend this place to anyone who finds themselves in this part of Costa Rica. Thanks for a great time!
