    Not to be missed! Seriously, don't go to Guanacaste without visiting Sentido Norte at least once. Sunset is spectacular and the experience is better.

    The location is perfect for a sunset dinner. Architecture is amazing. Food is good, but a bit overpriced. Favors of the dishes are clean and complex.

    This was our second time at SENTITO NORTE and we were surprised and pleased with the lovely addition of the infinity pool. We are going again next week when our other son joins us here! My only negative is that they no longer serve the DELICIOUS uniquely flavored Moscow Mule that I fell in love with last time. That said, the ambiance is “off the charts” and the service and food is excellent!
