nature, beach, pool, family friendly and staff

good air, hot water and satellite television/wifi in all units

shops or hotel near the hotel, no mobile signal, just wifi, poor breakfast

breakfast was great, a lot of options to eat

could have had some basics in the kitchen (paper towels, salt and pepper, oil, vinegar) (+)loved the luxury rooms which had two balconies, a kitchen, a living room, a big bathroom, and an amazing bedroom (+) huge living space: 2 patios with view of ocean, full kitchen, large living room with view, large bedroom with view, one harder bed and one softer one, (+) the rooms had a kitchen and it was well equipped (+)large king suite with 2 balconies, large living room/full kitchen, king bed etc (+) we booked a room and discovered on arrival that we had a beautiful suite with a full kitchen but location was quite isolated so unable to get groceries to do any cooking

pool table and darts were fun

strip of land full of palm trees, this resort is only a 7 bungalows property with a swimming pool, bar, restaurant, bbq area, pool and ping pong table

location, nice house with outside kitchen

the location, accommodation, cleanliness and breakfast were excellent

we ate breakfast and supper here too, chef did an amazing job

with frangipani, wont forget the evenig sitting in the shade drinking a guaro sour while our kids are playing in the sand under the high palm trees overlooking one of the most beautiful

great menu options for lunch/dinner (but not breakfast) great staff, room was cleaned and nicely decorated every day

i would suggest a bar near the swimming pool

the bar closes early also 10pm so bringing your own beverages is essential

breakfast was included and always wonderful

the bar in the pool looked very fun

the has nice pool where you can relax.

wasn't open in the morning)

pool that the kids loved with a swim up bar for adults

the pool area was very nice and relaxing

the portion of the breakfast was too little for me

everything! but..breakfast was amazing!

we were a group of 6 adults and 2 young kids

views, ambience is on point, wildlife, pool area, small walking path to explore, excellent pizza and papagayo beers

also they do not have enough parking spots on the street

there is no functioning wifi

pecially the owner carlos

good parking space

parking lot

nice kitchen, but not well equipped.

didn t like the food and the wifi was definitely an issue

amazing views and fantastic swimming pool

the breakfast was cooked fresh and was lovely

*the bar and kitchen staff made up for that

location and pool area were amazing

parking was easy as was check in

it was great to have a mini kitchen area equipped with fridge and microwave (we enjoyed making complimentary popcorn

amazing free breakfast, great pool area

the stairs to the third floor can be challening for older people, and they can improve the wifi

we could leave the car safely at the hotel and not worry about parking

adults only, so we had a very quiet time by the pool and it s surrounded by so much nature

the food was excellent, great breakfast options, which was included in our rate

the included breakfast was another plus point; there was a variety of delicious options that satisfied all

breakfast was nice and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing

breakfast was simple but delicious

a huge beautiful garden, tasty breakfast outdoors

the room was large, comfortable and next to the pool where breakfast was served, which was supposed to be buffet style

there's a bar around the pool and one can grab a drink and hang out - which was appreciated since the

breakfast was a highlight every morning delicious, fresh, and generous

the breakfast is really good

the staff was incredibly kind and attentive, and the food was delicious from breakfast to dinner

even breakfast felt like a piece of art, both visually stunning and incredibly tasty

views - abundant wildlife - great food at the restaurant - wonderful deep-tissue massage at the spa - friendly attentive

the restaurant is superb and the spa delightful

the concierge, the room was pretty and very clean, the spa options

although the hotel has everything you need and the food is out of this world… breakfast, lunch and dinner

the room was big with a kitchen and a great bathroom

the kitchen is well-equipped

living room-kitchen is not very cozy

it features a fully equipped kitchen, a king-size bed, and an epic view

amazing pool and views, self contained kitchen with everything you need

smaller kids would probably be ok

wifi

the wifi is almost not working in the rooms, you have to go down by the office to get good speed

could have been a few more lounge chairs at the pool

nice room, decent size for 5 people. super friendly staff. deep pool. great restaurant.

the wifi was very unstable, ranging from very good to really bad reception in the room.

monkey trail, spa and everything was really perfect

staff were not as friendly as other area hotels but the other personnel at the resort; desk, parking, spa, bell hop, were awesome

this delivers in spades - great facilities inc three pools, comfortable rooms, wonderful staff, parking if you have a car and excellent food and drinks

the breakfast was wow

pool was not clean, pool in general was not nice, room bathroom too small, it would be a nice to

the many steps to the room. there are 91 steps to our room from the parking lot !!

pool rules weren't enforced

wifi was laggy from time to time.

the staff is very friendly and the pool and restaurant are great as well

i liked the staff , having a pool and a restaurant.

the swimming pool is completely neglected

delicious pizza and live music by the pool on wednesdays

would be wonderful if i could stay in the pool after my check out, cause check out is too early

ac and fan box was a plus just remember to drain the water when it tells you or youll have a pool on the floor,,the hotel is located on the steepest section in manuel antonio,,pizza and free

the pool was also super for kids

no coffee maker in the room, room service forgot wine glasses when we ordered a bottle of wine

my son had lots of different kids to play with

property was secluded parking very inconvenient checking process complex room service very poor

also, the men's bathroom by the pool smelled like feces both days we were there

laundry service extremely expensive

wifi was stable and the parking was comfortable enough

breakfast: it is an heresy to propose apple juice in a tropical country with so many fresh fruits

room was a bit dated and lack of a bar in the hotel

the staff is extremely helpful and the breakfast is

kitchen could have better equipped for cooking meals

great room except for the steep climb from the parking area for our particular room but once there you are greeted with

villa, it had views to the ocean which we enjoyed from the amazing terrace, a big spacious kitchen and bedroom and a perfectly equipped toilet with a big shower

treatments, convenient shuttle around property, awesome beach with kayaks and boogie boards with bar and restaurant

everything during our stay, we communicated via whatsapp or sms and she booked restaurants/tours/laundry

the pool area was nice and relaxing, you have to try a guaro sour

tile around the swimming pool was very slick so watch your step

breakfast is handled by 'shana by the beach' hotel which i believe bought this property within the

hotel, lovely staff, good breakfast, c

we prepared a simple dinner/breakfast, had salt/oil + coffee in room also

rooms too dark. unreliable wifi no cellphone signal in room meal portions too small

the spa was shut for maintenance

setting in the jungle surrounded by wildlife, the rooms including balcony and the pool, bar resturaunts

the pools and spa were beautiful

spa service and staff were great

there are,what feels like thousand steps , from the parking lot to the rooms but most days the security guard was available to take us up with a golf

the pool was perfectly placed with an incredible view

great experience and great breakfast

breakfast could improve a little, the portions and gallo pinto were ok

they have on-site parking

great pool and adequate breakfast

the bar by the pool is also disused and it would be good if the bartender would come down to the pool

the main pool is very nice, our kids had great fun

great breakfast, wonderful room, having two pools and the pool temperature was amazing.

,comfortable beds, large spaces, good breakfast, friendly staffs,clean swimming pool, great location, what else

excellent facilities and breakfast was excellent

this is not the hotel to stay at if you don’t have a car and have small kids as everything is a walk

it was private, the pool was

andres at cafe made our pool time wonderful

i didn't expect such a lovely room with the private pool

great location. excellent breakfast. huge apartment layout. elevator opens into your suite.

breakfast was first-class, fresh, delicious and interesting

the view is amazing whether you are in your room, having breakfast or in the pool

they have a nice pool and a little private beach, worth the little shuttle ride

we booked the family room with breakfast and highly recommend it

the breakfast included with our reservation was incredible and the staff was very kind and helpful

when you go for breakfast don’t forget your binoculars- wildlife is everywhere

the stay that much nicer such as complimentary snacks and drinks in the fridge and complimentary laundry services

one must be super fit, and used to climbing hills, then the walk from building one to breakfast can be a daily fun excursion

laundry services and a la carte breakfast included

laundry services and a la carte breakfast included

a bit wider menu for breakfast and dinner

swim up bar was beautiful and the bartenders were so friendly

as soon as we arrived in the parking lot we saw monkeys in the trees

many kids with minimal parental supervision disrupting the peace towards the end of our stay

- stunning views over the bay and the park! - parking within the property.

breakfast was delicious and the property grounds are beautifully kept

good parking

breakfast was so delicious everyday and i loved the coffee

the parking felt secure, which was important to us, as we had a loaded car

only 4 options and one morning they decided not to serve pancakes (the only thing our kids wanted)

would like more variety of snacks by the pool - such as sandwiches.

gym was poor, breakfast variety could be better.

it was an added bonus the hotel was connected to a bar with lots of games

we loved hanging by the pool and saw so much wildlife from there

breakfast choice was great something for everyone (unless of course you are extremely fussy) fresh

and the swim up bar in the family pool

great pool, kids loved it here, and great food

there are 2 pools - we used the adult pool every day and it was very peaceful

breakfast had a wide variety and very good

) the spa is located next to the restaurant/bar at the top of the mountain, not where google says it is

wonderful mountain top bar with great cocktails

from the lovely ingrid who kept our accommodation perfect and provided an ever smiling face at breakfast

the only other issue revolves around long stay guests, the complimentary breakfast buffet, while delightful, gets a bit boring after 3-4 mornings

there is a nice breakfast buffet served each day

fabulous service we received from albert, the restaurant manager, who hosted us every morning for breakfast

the breakfast was wonderful each morning. the view from the property was amazing.

butter provided instead of margarine for breakfast

thing that could be improved was the included breakfast could have a larger variety of food i

where we spent many an afternoon hour sipping excellent freshly made fruit smoothies from the bar and watching the never ending display of wildlife (be it an entertaining troop of squirrel

traveled with kids and there are no kids friendly pools, although they say there are two pools for kids, they are

breakfast is free for guests which is a great way to start the morning

not lunch menu just breakfast and dinner

clean room and spacious for 2 adults and our 4 yo kids

the pool is a nice addition to cool down if its really hot

laundry was complimentary also

and there is a small pool also

the pool was a relaxing spot to get away from the busy beach

very easy access to parking and pool

pool sliding door was a little hard to open, but wouldn t even think of complaining
