(Michelin Guide) – After spending four days at Sendero, a charming boutique hotel in Nosara, Costa Rica, I’m already planning a trip back.

Surrounded by lush trees, kind staff, baked goods by the pool and accommodations that include an outdoor shower with a view of the jungle, it was hard to leave. The space lends itself to both relaxation and adventure, with a tree-lined pool at the center of the hotel and surfboards lined up in a small room at the hotel’s entry, ready to be rented and taken out on the ocean, which is just steps away.

Along with pool and beach access, guests can participate in workout classes, surf and yoga sessions instructed by locals, meals hosted by celebrity chef Olivier Palazzo and off-site excursions like ATV rides.
