Best Hotels in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica

Our worst hotel experience ever. We’ve been robbed in our hotel room, the hotel suspected it was an inside job and did nothing to help us. We have made several attempts to r We stayed at the Selina Manuel Antonio for 4 nights in July and were robbed in our own room. Before leaving the room in the morning, we had closed the window and the door. I received a notification on my banking app showing suspicious activity on one of my cards I had left in the room. We rushed back to the hotel only to find our room had been plundered. Everything of value had been stolen: both computers containing all our work, jewelry, clothes, shoes, handbags, backpacks, perfumes, identity cards. We immediately went to the reception where we tried to explain our situation to the receptionist. Absolutely no reaction, we had to wait, completely panicked for the manager to come, which took what seemed an eternity. The manager, which could not care less, finally appeared and came to the room to witness the ransack. We went straight to the police station to make a deposition. On our way to the police station, we did our best to explain how we found out about the robbery in our broken Spanish, because the manager wasn’t speaking English. At some point at the police station, we understood a glimpse of the conversation which was taking place between the manager and another hotel representative. They were saying in Spanish, that our room was in a blindspot for cameras and that a robbery had previously occurred there some years ago. Fortunately we understood a couple of words and confronted them immediately about that, and they had to confess to what they knew and were apparently trying to hide. The hotel's responsibility in this matter is engaged as (i) the theft occurred inside of the hotel, (ii) our room was in a blindspot for the cameras and the hotel knew about it, (iii) there was already a robbery in the same area of 3 rooms, and (iv) the thieves could open the door without forcing it simply by passing their hands through the poorly secured window (which was closed when we left the room). The hotel is liable and therefore should reimburse the amounts of the stolen items. When we came back from the police station, the manager promised to repair us for the whole amount that was stolen, and to show us the camera feed. Both of these promises were betrayed. The police caught some of the burglars and we managed to get some of our items back (including computers). But the jewelry went missing, and now the hotel acts like nothing ever happened. After more than a month, our requests remain completely unanswered. They are now trying to mislead us with legal jargon and their own insurer’s policy. PS: The room was awful and morbidly humid. No sunlight has ever penetrated trough that broken window.

I am currently writing from Shana. It is 8:30pm and the noise from the renovation work they are doing is horrendous. They have huge trucks, cranes and people banging loud sounds. No one told us this would be the case, and when asked when they would finish they told us 7pm. Well it is 8:35 and they are still here making loud sounds. This is really the most disrespectful way of treating customers. Not telling them you will have work until late evening with loud sounds, pool closed and in general not a relaxed atmosphere. The hotel is far too expensive for this type of treatment and having travelled here from Europe I am so disappointed. Our son could not fall asleep with all this crazy noise which in turn made our evening even more stressful. Definitely not a transparent way of treating your customers and the most stressful days in Costa Rica. For the dishonesty and for not telling us in advance I would discourage anyone from coming until after all works are done. Truly disgusting customer service.

What a beautiful and nostalgic hotel…our room had our own lap pool complete with cushioned lounge chairs…happy hour was a 2 for 1 deal and the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating and friendly…we swam and lounged out at the main pool…so relaxing! A free breakfast was included with our room (other breakfast items available at additional cost)..just enough to get our morning started before we headed out for the day! Pre COVID I’m sure the outside pool bar would be open which is always a plus when hanging out at the pool! Definitely on our list when we return to Costa Rica next year!

They spoil you here! They have a WhatsApp set up for their guest services and it made it all the more spoiled. I was at the spa and I needed ice for my drink that I brought there and all I did was message and they brought it right to me. The food was great breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There was free shuttle service to Agua Azules and the town, which was perfect because we booked parasailing with Agua Azules and they dropped us off right at there steps. The room was clean. The property was beautiful. We got to see sloths, iguanas, and monkeys! The monkeys were right outside our hotel building (we booked a vista suite) when checking out.
