This hotel is in a good location just a 5 minute walk from the beach (although I did not like this beach and only used the beach in the national park). It is also a 10 minute walk from the national park (which was amazing) if not less. 

The check in was smooth and the member of staff on reception was very informative and friendly. The room was large, bigger than expected and was spotlessly clean all the time we were there. The grounds and pool area were also nice and clean. The breakfast was great. We did not eat at the hotel restaurant for dinner as it seemed expensive and there was a lot more choice around. 

In regards to the area, I am not sure this is the nicest part of Manuel Antonio, but of course this is not reflective of the hotel. The beach was not very clean and the area did not feel as authentic as other parts of Costa Rica we have stayed. However, the hotel itself can not be faulted and we had a great time at the Manuel Antonio national park.

Great hotel close to national park

If you like to be in an hotel, fells like family, you will be well served. Very close to the beach, rooms are clean, the service from the reception are amazing- the best is Yafit !

Food is very good from the restaurant, you must try the pizza!

An hotel to discover

The best surprise was the monkeys hanging out in the trees outside of our door.  We sat on the patio and watched them eat and play.  Perfect quiet hotel.  Clean and neat. Close to the national park and the beach.  Friendly helpful staff.  Free breakfast but couldn't get a dinner reservation as we arrived in the late afternoon.

Such a gem of a hotel

Quiet, clean, steps to the beach and to the national park. Delicious breakfast, lovely pool and grounds - what a nice way to start our vacation.
When it rained we spent time in the comfortable palapas by the pool and watched the iguanas. The staff were kind and patient with our muy mal español. :-)

Comfortable, clean and quiet space with beautiful gardens and a great location

We checked out. The reviews were excellent. We didn’t know what to expect. What a wonderful surprise. The place is pristine. It is clean. It follows the covid protocols. The menu is specific. We tasted patacones, fried fish and curry shrimps. Everything was just amazing… the service is just amazing. The food is just whoa.. the chef is incredible.. we decided to stay for coffee and a margarita… the best we have tasted..the cost value is excellent… 
Will go back any time…we highly recommend this restaurant

Excellent

Two hotels actually, with Playa Espadilla across the street. Not as well-adorned as their sister hotel but more than adequate. Can use the more up-scale facilities and pool across the street, where meals are also served. The kicker, though, was that when I mentioned that it was my daughter's 15th birthday, the hotel went all out. We got back to the room during the day, and the bed was decorated with petals, heart-shaped towel sculptures, and the most incredible personalized flower arrangement-bouquet I have ever seen. At dinner, there was a specially-decorated table for us and a musician; after dinner, the whole staff came to sing Happy Birthday and offered Ruby a delicious tres leche cake. We were truly moved. With the beach and the ocean and that special treatment, my daughter said that not only was it the best birthday of her life, but also the best day, period. Will definitely return to the hotel and the amazingly beautiful land and people of Costa Rica. Pura vida!

Nice hotel, great location, incredible service

We stayed at this hotel for the last 3 nights of our costa rica holiday.  The rooms were small but well fitted out and comfortable with aircon and fans.  The shower power was a bit weak but this was really not a major issue.  The location was amazing, a few minutes from the park gates and the beach.  There were lots of iguanas around and the monkeys visited each afternoon.  The very loud noise one morning turned out to be frogs.   You use the restaurant at the Playa Espadilla hotel next door for breakfast and other meals.  The breakfasts were very good and we also had dinner at Morphe (one of the restaurants)  on 2 of the nights, it was really good  especially the tuna tartare.  It was a great end to our holiday and I would certainly recommend this hotel.

Great location with monkeys, frogs and iguanas!

Clean, bright, working wifi, great breakfast, great location, pool, wee bit small but fine for a couple of days. Use of hotel pool across the road as well, helpful staff. Best hotel we stayed  in in Costa rica, highly recommended

My wife and I visited Manuel Antonio for the first time and had a wonderful time at this hotel. The rooms are perfect for a restful getaway. The smallness of the resort is a huge advantage to those wanting a place to relax. The location at the entrance of the park is a great advantage. Meals are a 3 minute walk up the street but that was no bother.

A great place to rest..

We liked it here...great location within walking distance from the beach! Daniel was helpful in setting up our tours and giving us information. We appreciated his assistance. They held onto our luggage and let us use the pool after check out so we could still enjoy the day before our evening flight. Thank you for a good experience!!!
