Spend three focused, relaxing weeks learning Spanish in Nosara, Costa Rica. This program combines 10 hours of communicative small-group Spanish instruction per week (30 total hours) with time to settle into the relaxed rhythm of Playa Guiones and Nosara. You’ll learn in a supportive small-group setting and use Spanish in real situations from the moment you arrive.

WHAT 10 HOURS MEANS

Your program includes 10h/week of small-group Spanish instruction, Monday through Friday. Across three weeks, that’s 30 total hours. Placement includes a written test and oral check so your lessons are relevant and comfortable. Group timetables vary; specific time slots are not guaranteed.

BUILD YOUR THREE WEEKS

Use the space between classes to explore Nosara’s beaches, wellness, wildlife and local life. Make room for surf, yoga and other plans, and let your Spanish become part of your days.

HOMESTAY VS RESIDENCE

Choose a welcoming Costa Rican homestay with your own bedroom in a local family home, shared living areas, breakfast and dinner—or the NSI Residence, with a private room and bathroom, AC, Wi-Fi and a shared kitchen. Meals are separate at the residence. Accommodation options are subject to availability.
