Welcome to the line-up!
Finding the perfect gathering place for families, friends, and surfers was the family's goal when buying and rebuilding our jungle escape. As a family. we have travelled the world looking for a community to call home. After ten years of visiting Nosara and Playa Guiones, we finally decided that this was a place to lay our roots, build a community, and stay. In 2023, we designed, built, and opened our dream surf oasis.
The Line Up name came from our children…. it’s their favourite part of the surf day. Sitting out like ducks on the water gathering, meeting friends, and scoping waves is the highlight of their surf day. Why not bring that feeling back to shore to keep enjoying? The Line Up is a place for gathering, telling stories, and spending time together.
As owners and designers of the home, we wanted to pay homage to the beautiful country and jungle of Costa Rica, specifically the Guanacaste Peninsula, by creating a luxurious experience with modern, clean finishes and sourcing all materials, furniture, and fixtures from around Costa Rica. Every piece of wood is local Guanacaste wood. All lighting, cabinetry, art, and much more were hand-built and created in the area surrounding the property.
We hope you enjoy this magical jungle retreat. Take in the views, explore the jungle canopy, and, most importantly, enjoy your time with family and friends. So please relax, recharge and discover the wonders of Costa Rica.

Las Huacas Hillside is the premiere neighborhood in Nousara. The Lineup sits on two acres of the jungle, overlooking the famous Playa Guionnes beaches. The property is a quick 5-minute drive away from the beach. The hillside location brings a refreshing breeze, allowing for cooler temperatures and fewer bugs than in town.
Playa Guiones is on the Pacific side of Costa Rica on the Nicoya Peninsula and in the region of Guanacaste. It is a 7-mile stretch of white sand beaches. Two hundred meters back from the high-tide line is protected for the sea turtles to come lay their eggs.
At low tide, the entire Guiones Bay can be explored by bicycle or on foot. If you head far enough south, you’ll find several large tide pools that make for excellent snorkeling and relaxing. Past the tide pools, you will come upon Playa Rosada or Pink Beach, an amazing place to spend a few hours before the tide returns.
At the far north end of Playa Guiones, you will see the old Hotel Nosara, standing tall with its unique spire. The hotel is now closed, but it makes for a neat place to walk around and explore. There is also a walking path to Playa Pelada that goes right past the hotel grounds. This makes for quick and easy access to beautiful Playa Pelada.
Playa Guiones is one of the world's longest and most consistent surf breaks - perfect for both beginner and expert surfers. World-class yoga and excellent restaurants combine to create the ultimate vacation in paradise!
We highly recommend hiring some form of transportation to fully enjoy all that the area has to offer

Please feel free to inquire for more information. If not included, the property manager can arrange a dinner guard at an additional cost.
