Beautiful Luxury 3 Building Compound with Ocean view

Enjoy this beautiful tropical compound overlooking the Pacific Ocean. It is part of the world-renown gated Blue Spirit Retreat Center. Our House of Stars - Casa De Las Estrellas, is a private sanctuary featuring stunning views of the ocean and the vast skies above. When here you are the only guests. Enjoy our infinity pool. There are two outdoor dining spaces one next to the kitchen downstairs and one at the pool level with a barbecue. We have 5 bedrooms en suites, with seven (7) beds, housed in 3 different structures. Assuming 2 couples it sleeps up to 9 people. The compound offers clean modern architecture with an eye for organic form and is tastefully furnished with Balinese teakwood furniture and Asian statuary. It was designed by Salagnacar Arquitectos, architects of the Bodhi Tree and Nomad Hotel. There are multiple indoor/outdoor hang-out areas including the palapas, (traditional palm leaf structures). Great for families, friends groups, creative retreats, or if you are dreaming of a perfect remote office for an extended rental. Five of our ensuite rooms have desks. There is 50+MPBS Wi-Fi throughout and in all buildings (zoom calling works here) Great site for bird and monkey watching. There is an excellent grocery store, Blue Gaza, 5 minutes away left at the exit. Also in Gaza find a place to buy the daily catch at the Fish Store. Our house is in the jungle and there is an abundance of wild life. You will be visited by howler monkeys (who never enter the house), morpho butterflies, iguanas and and symphonies of night insects, a few examples of Costa Rica's extraordinary biodiversity. Some people want to stay at our place because of this. If you are a city person not interested in the sounds and presence of the jungle this is not the place for you.

Great place
Beautiful setting, house was as advertised. Not the fault of the owners, but families with small kids should be aware of the distances between the suites. Teens would be fine.

Beautiful house
The view, rooms and pool were wonderful! The monkeys came for a visit one day and the Coati wanted to see if we left any food out. We loved the out door feeling. The room that we stayed in, felt like we were in a tree house, complete with our door shower. There are steps to some of the rooms, but a couple of rooms are near the kitchen with a ramp. If you don’t like the out doors, stay in a hotel.

Very Unique Property with Amazing Ocean Views!
Casa Estrellas is one of the most unique properties we have ever stayed in! We were immediately drawn to the palapa and the pool deck, with its breathtaking views of the Pacific and beaches. As we explored the rest of the property and the 3 separate buildings, we felt like we were at a jungle resort. It was rainy season so the vegetation was very lush and tropical. Here were our favorite things about the property: the way the buildings were designed with indoor/outdoor living in mind, this is especially true in the main building, it is very open concept. The bedrooms and kitchen can be closed off completely, but the common area is very open. The pool and pool deck are great spots for sunsets and cocktails. The master bedroom suite has an extremely large shower that has a small opening in the ceiling where rain can come in and we got to experience a “rain shower”, which was so cool. The twin bunkbed room suites are unlike any we had ever seen and they have outdoor showers. The fact that there wasn’t any air conditioning in these rooms did not bother our 3 girls (ages 21, 21, and 14), they just kept the screen doors open and used fans. There were howler monkeys in the trees around the property who could be heard frequently and seen from time to time. We got the occasional visit from a coatimundi who I think was checking to see if we left the kitchen doors open. The property owner and property manager were very responsive, friendly, and helpful. The wifi worked well. The kitchen was well equipped. The washer/dryer worked well. Here are some things you should know about the property: It is at the top of a very steep hill in a gated community, so a car is a must. We rented a car to drive down from the airport, but once in town we rented ATV’s and drove them everywhere. As mentioned above, the design of the buildings is open and indoor/outdoor living style, so there will be bugs, but you get used to them and after the first day it really didn’t bother us anymore. The 3 buildings are separated but not too far away from each other, this did give some privacy to the adults staying in the main house and the master suite, but if it is rainy season, you’ll have to deal with the elements as you go between buildings. The location of the property is less than 5 minutes to Playa Garza and a well-stocked market and about 15 minutes to the "main" part of Guiones. Overall, we loved our stay at Casa Estrellas and the Nosara, Guiones, Garza area!

Pretty views but likely won't return
The pictures in the listing while accurate, don't feel the same in person. The kitchen was very small. There is no area to hang out / have dinner that is enclosed, which means you are fighting off mosquitos, spiders, wasps, beetles etc while you eat. The kitchen doors have to remain closed otherwise large animals will come in to rummage. Our AC was broken in the main bedroom for 2 nights which was very uncomfortable. 2 of the bedrooms don't have A/C at all (which was mentioned in the listing) but still the rooms became miserable for our kids. The amount of ants and other bugs that were in their room was a constant issue. If you don't mind large spiders and the possibility of snakes in your room, then I'm sure this place is no problem for you. You are in the jungle so if that is the vibe you want, you are in the right place. If not, there are other places closer to the city and restaurants that may be better fit. Or find a place that has 4 walls in the common areas to keep the bugs out. The main bedroom is a metal roof, if it rains it will be extremely loud. We visited during rainy season and hardly slept the entire time due to the noise. Actually no one in our entire group had a good night sleep while they were here. The view from the pool was beautiful. There is a large cell tower that is not shown in the pictures which doesn't really flow with nature. We did get to enjoy many monkeys coming right up to the pool area which was our favorite part of the location of the house. The area was safe.

Perfect working getaway
We loved our stay at Casa de Estrella. It’s such a beautiful house and property. You really feel nestled in the land. I had to work some, so the upper rooms provided a beautiful perch to work from. The internet was very reliable. We had a wonderful time.

Great pool and location with a few minor caveats
Our family of 5 shared this place with another family of 3. Location on hillside wonderful with expansive view. Infinity pool great for the hot days we had mid-April, deep enough at the far end to jump in. Blue Garza market is super close and convenient, well-stocked. The adjacent restaurant, La Malacrianza,” is one of the best in the area. Kitchen well-stocked, but no dishwasher. The house description could use more detail. There is no AC in the 2 rooms with the bunks, “Evan Quartet left and Evan Quartet right,” which is only described in the fine print under the Amenities section of the listing. I missed this detail, assuming all the bedrooms had AC after seeing a wall-unit in one of the pictures. This detail should be mentioned in the main description. With the heat and humidity (mid April), the these rooms were not used. The outdoor areas around pool are inviting and comfortable, but after the sun went down, the main common area next to the kitchen is open air and subject to no-see-um biting flies, which went away with fans. Cleanliness above average, but grounds and plants look a bit neglected.

Paradise in Nosara
This home was the highlight of our stay in Costa Rica. It really is 5 stars in every way. Truly the best view of the ocean and sunsets, and the flora and fauna was divine. The monkeys and birds came right up to the edge of the infinity pool. Great outdoor grill for meals under the palapa. Privacy, beauty, and nurturing to body and soul.

Great Stay in Playa Guiones
We had a great time staying at House of Stars. We have stayed in the Nosara/Guiones area 3 times now and this was our favorite place. There are 3 separate houses that allow you to spread out and still have privacy even with a large group. Most of the rooms are spacious and the beds are comfortable. The views from the pool area are incredible and the pool is great. The kitchen is well equipped to do your own cooking. A few things to note. The home is at the top of a very long a steep driveway. You will definitely need a car to stay here and probably a 4WD vehicle. The driveway is paved but the roads in the area are not. This was not a problem for us but just something to note. Also, being at the top of the hill is very private but you are in the jungle so expect to see wildlife daily. We had visits from a family of monkeys, coatimundis, many birds, frogs, snakes and butterflies. We loved all of the wildlife and it definitely added to the experience. I would highly recommend and hope to return again one day.
