Perfection!
The hotel was absolutely beautiful beyond words. It’s situated right in the middle of nature and you can see the ocean from many points of the property. There are several beautiful pools. Our room was very clean and comfortable. We saw so much wildlife on the hotel grounds: sloths, monkeys, frogs, etc. Staff were incredibly warm and welcoming. This is where you want to stay in Manuel Antonio!

Great place to stay if visiting Manuel Antonio Par
Had a fabulous time at the hotel. Staff were amazing- felt well looked after and a genuine warmth and good hospitality from the team. We stayed for two nights and made the most of the facilities. Loved the adult only pool and seeing so many animals and birds in the grounds (saw sloths, monkeys and more!) Really appreciated the shuttle bus to Manuel Antonio park too- that was really handy

This resort was amazing!!!! Our room, the staff and service, the food, and overall experience was wonderful. We booked all our excursions and transportation to and from the airport through the hotel and everything was perfect. Highly recommend this beautiful resort to anyone wanting to stay in the area.
Crystal, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property is beautiful and well maintained. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food is excellent. My room was unexceptional and I expected better for the price. The location in Mario Antonio is private and secluded with excellent security. If traveling with young children and planning to stay put, it would work very well. If easy access to other areas, or to the public beach or park in Mario Antonio, is a priority then it's an inconvenience that needs to be planned for.
