    great location
    friendly staff

    Here's my unfiltered experience

    The location is unbeatable-just a short stroll to the beach and the national park entrance. The rooms are clean and well-equipped, while the staff is attentive and genuinely friendly. Breakfast is a good mix, with dining options available throughout the day. Plus, the wildlife around the pool area adds to the charm!

    really good breakfast
    relaxing massages
    beautiful pool
    shower leakage

    The breakfast spread was fantastic, offering a good mix to kick off our mornings. Just a small note, the shower had a little leakage, but it didn't ruin our great experience 😊

    Beautifully kept hotel that has great location to the international airport. Big size and hugeroom with an excellent bar and fridge and a safe locker as advertised. Fantastic breakfast with a great selection of delicacies and affable staff. Honestly no complaints.

    nice pool
    noisy air conditioning

    The beach was just a short walk away, and

    The pool was a good spot to unwind after a day of exploring. The room's air conditioning struggled during the humid nights, a bit uncomfortable at times.

    vibrant pool
    delicious breakfast
    cozy atmosphere
    limited activities

    Staying at this hotel seemed like a dream come true! The cozy atmosphere and proximity to the fine Manuel Antonio National Park allowed my family, including my cousin, to enjoy both relaxation and adventure. We loved the vibrant pool area and the delicious breakfast spread available every morning!

    My kids wished for more family-friendly activities on-site.

    comfortable bed
    clean room
    friendly staff

    great place but could enhance the pool area

    The Standard Queen Room with Garden View was clean and well-maintained. I appreciated the comfort of the bed and the friendly staff providing excellent service. Relaxing by the pool offered a great escape after a day exploring. I enjoyed the private nature trail nearby, made for an enjoyable afternoon.

    well-maintained room
    excellent breakfast
    high off-season pricing
    lackluster beach
    dim surroundings

    The Premium Quadruple Room offered ample space, and the super tidy facilities stood out. Breakfast was excellent, with a great variety of options including traditional bread, and the ceviche served at the hotel's restaurant was amazing. The pricing felt a bit high during the off-season, and while the pool was enjoyable, the surroundings lacked some vibrancy. The beach area, although warm, had darker sand that wasn't quite as picturesque as expected.

    charming decor
    sound insulation

    I loved the charming outdoor dining area with beautiful hanging lights, perfect for evening meals. The pool was easily accessible and well-maintained.

    Some rooms could use better sound insulation.
