This hotel far exceeded my expectations, and my expectations were already high. The views from the room were outstanding and the service and hospitality was top-notch. The food was incredible as was the beach. I would highly recommend staying here and would happily come back again in the future.

Stunning beach, excellent food and drink, great staff. The property is mostly accessible by golf cart once you check in— I had planned to walk to Manuel Antonio some during the trip but that’s a bit of a project. Everything you need is right there though!

Hotel is fabulous, staff are amazing. They consistently went above and beyond to ensure our stay was wonderful. Magnificent views from every vantage point. Lots of wildlife on the grounds. Monkeys, sloughs, iguanas, etc. We did the night walk with Maria. She was great and pointed out so many amazing species of tree frogs, sloughs moving, birds,etc. Also booked the waterfall hike (spectacular) and whale watching (saw at least 8-10 whales in addition to leatherback sea turtle, dolphins playing, and many species of birds). Highly recommend!!

Did not like feeling like I needed to tip all the time to golf cart drivers, maids, waiters, bar keeps and then tip was added on my bill at the end. Better if they turned down tips

The resort was beautiful, quiet and clean, and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. You will see monkeys and sloths. The staff will point them out to you as well. Most of the community does speak English and do take dollars without difficulty. The restaurants on the resort are pricey, we tried Agua Azul close by and it was delicious and reasonable, Emil’s Cafe was also great but also a little more pricey. Taking a taxi to the local restaurants in Manuel Antonio is about $10 each way, into the manual. Antonio Park is $12 each way. We initially use the resort transportation when we arrived to take us from the Quapos airport to the resort which was around $68. I asked the resort multiple times how much transportation would be via taxi and they avoided this question. On the way back, we decided to take a red taxi and it was only $25. The resort was helpful when asking how much to taxi would be to other places, although not to the airport. Adorable tourist shops in the area although very overpriced so do negotiate. We did multiple tours that we booked on our own. I would definitely recommend a guide for the manual Antonio Park. We did a volunteer for a day with Kids Saving the Rainforest and you will see more animals up close. Also loved the Night walk Rainmaker tour and horseback to beautiful waterfalls. Transportation to the Waterfall was $140 and tix $160 for two, but lovely. Bring any meds you might need pharmacy charged $80 for a $20 medication, ouch
