The location of this hotel is perfect—right by the entrance of Manuel Antonio National Park with some of the best ocean views you can find. The reception staff was friendly and welcoming, which made check-in pleasant.
Unfortunately, other aspects of the stay did not meet expectations. The restaurant staff was not friendly, which made dining uncomfortable. Housekeeping was also very poor: the sheets were never changed once during the entire stay, and the the toilet was never cleaned. Shampoo never filled.
The last night of our stay the air conditioner stopped working. We did not bother to tell them.
Overall, this hotel has a lot of potential because of its prime location and stunning views, but the service and cleanliness need serious improvement.

Very nice property. I had room with beautiful view of the ocean. The free breakfast was excellent, I had lunch there one day, The prices were good. I would give 10 out of 10, especially when you consider the price for the room with such a beautiful view. The staff is very friendy.

The service was excellent—staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt welcome throughout our stay. The food was another highlight. The location couldn’t be more convenient, perfect for getting around and exploring nearby attractions.
Daily room service was a great touch, keeping the space tidy and comfortable. However, the room lacked basic toiletries such as soap, bar shampoo, and lotion. Also, while the room was very clean, they are dated. A renovation in the rooms would really elevate the overall experience and match the quality of the service.

Great value for family of four! We had two rooms for two adults and two teens.
Location was great - two minute walk to Manuel Antonio park, convenience store, souvenir shops.
Hotel restaurant - the breakfast that was included was fantastic. We ended up eating dinner there one night and it was good too.
Staff - quick responses via WhatsApp. Very helpful.
Beach - seven minute walk. Beautiful views ocean view from our rooms and from the restaurant. We saw two different types of monkeys from our room and from the restaurant.
Rooms - not the nicest, could use some updates, but the they were clean, cool, and the beds were comfortable.

Well, it’s different staying in a shipping container but they made it very comfortable. The staff was amazing, especially the gentleman at breakfast! The cleaning staff were polite (great job ladies!). Even the unforeseeable guest at breakfast (monkeys) were handled firmly, but with Care making everyone. The only 2 thing that gave it less of an appeal was water pressure, either very lower not having any water at all. I’m not sure if that’s the hotels problem or a city problem. The second is the hill if you’re unable to walk up and down the hill, this is definitely not a hotel for you. Yes they have golf carts, but they’re not there on a regular basis. If you get lucky, you may get a ride up the hill. Most of the time you walk it and ladies and gentlemen it’s a hill straight up.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, it’s close to national Park and the beaches. Breakfast and dinner menu was full of choices and tasted delicious. I loved that I could see a lot of animals around like monkeys, slots, and birds.

We arrived and it was raining. Of course it's a jungle. We were supposed to be there for two nights they checked us in and they said it's too dangerous to take our car up to the hotel because it's so steep and I guess something with the bricks. So he put us in a little car and took us halfway. We got on the elevator. Took the elevator up I think to get off at the restaurant. Walk through the restaurant and over a slippery little bridge. Then we took another elevator up to our room. So of course I asked him when we need to get down what do I do? He said to contact them with WhatsApp and someone will be there within a minute. Okay so we go to the room so many issues. No bedside tables. No electricity at the bedside. You have to step up about a foot or so to get into the bathroom. Hard for someone handicapped. So I messaged them and said we can't stay here. I messaged so many times to no avail I ended up calling the police. The police came. We got down there with all our luggage. The man at the desk promised that he would contact ******* and give us a refund. It was done. All good........

Recommended, amazing staff. Great value 😁
Staff were very helpful and friendly. Great value for money and right next to Manuel Antonio park entrance. Close to the beach also. Room was clean and tidy. Facilities could use a few touch ups and the bed was a bit on the 'too firm' side for me but overall would recommend.
