Wonderful boutique Hotel
Great service and location
Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice stay.
Two properties combined into one hotel. Each with pool though 'Gardens' has no bar or restaurant which is based in the other site a couple of minutes across the road. Room was decent with a safe and a fridge. Thanks to Yafit and Eric for being helpful and friendly.

A wonderful hotel from which you can walk to the beach and very close to the beautiful Parque Manueel Antonio, one of Costa Rica's main natural attractions
LEONARDO, 1-night trip

We absolutely loved our stay at Playa Espadilla the food was delicious, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and it was really walkable to both the national park and the public beach. I highly recommend staying here!

Great place to stay
We checked in around 8:00 p.m. and Dillan was very friendly and welcoming. The staff went out of their way to help us with tour trips. The motel is a couple blocks from the beach and a couple of blocks from Manuel Antonio. The rooms were clean, the breakfast was delicious, and the staff was great. There were monkeys and iguanas that would visit everyday.

Satisfied customer
Everything there was great. + clean and spacious room + fan on the ceiling + big and delicious breakfast or Swedish buffet + friendly staff + nice environment and beach was close + wi-fi + no insect inside - sometimes there were blackouts but it was in the whole location, not just in the hotel

Slice of paradise
Overall a great experience. Location to the beach and national park couldn’t be better. Room was nice and clean. Only complaint on room was utter lack of closet / storage space, even for one person. 2 people would be really tight. Pool area was lovely. Restaurant and bar was fantastic for breakfast and dinner. Friendly staff all over. Would definitely stay here again.
