Hotel Nahua

It had been about 4 years since our last stay at Nahua. Tamarindo keeps growing and getting busier but Nahua remains an oasis near the Langosta divide. The rooms have had a big refurbishing and the pool improved as well. The late night disco thump nearby was gladly absent this time but creatures are still present: howler monkeys, a skunk and a coati all patrolled near our door at twilight. There is a new plaza next to the relatively new grocery next door and the market still takes place nearby. The amount of familiar return visitors is a testimony to Gabriela, owner/host/manager. The beach is accessed easily via the 'food truck park' or the shortcut next to Sharkeys bar. Sadly, the great little breakfast place out front is gone. There is a new sign out front, with Nahua being opposite Pasatiempo.

Everything was great. Quiet location but very close walk to beach, nightlife, and restaurants. Pool was excellent, nice shaded seating area, and monkeys around. Beds were comfortable, room felt huge, and kitchen was well set up. Groceries were walking distance easily.
