We enjoyed the pool area with the large lounger beds, which has fans installed to keep you cool! The breakfast is held at the nearly sister hotel (2mins walk) and there is a good selection of food, they even made fresh vegetarian options for me which weren’t on the menu! The staff at the hotel are incredible! My friend has pulled a ligament in her ankle and every single day they would ensure she had ice available for the swelling, provided a bucket for when she had to rest it in warm water, and even ordered supplies from the closest Pharmacy. For the first couple days we did have an issue with the lack of hot water from the shower and there was a strange sewage smell coming from the bathroom, but the hotel did well at addressing these and the communication was 10/10\. ##### Sonal Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### katherine 11 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This property was stunning, our room overlooking the pool was amazing. Lots of wildlife on property, bed was comfy, nesspresso machine in our room was a lovely touch. 5 min walk to beach or Manuel Antonio park. Lots of restaurants to walk to. Clean beach towels were provided each day as well. The front desk also helped with organizing our excursions and we were picked up on property. The restaurants breakfast was delicious and huge and staff were friendly and prompt. Cons: don’t order their pizza.. seemed like it was a frozen grocery store pizza but kids would like it!! We will be staying there again if we go back! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/327b6069-7e03-4918-bfdc-a17782833877-1762822451570.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bece48e3-6c18-4ab6-85b4-e5bd0a9f08fd-1762822452493.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1bc60d80-771e-49b3-b16d-554024de3476-1762822451883.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8982796d-685c-40a7-9a79-47a62df412cd-1762822457004.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### katherine Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexis 14 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel is incredible! It is two properties that are within steps of each other. The pools at both are incredible and have large cabanas with fans. The bar area is so nice, we ended up here most evenings. The food at the restaurant is incredible! You get a menu for breakfast, along with some food and drinks put out as a buffet. The breakfast options are incredible, and some of the best food we ate on the trip. Our room was cleaned promptly every day and was left with a towel animal we looked forward to. The staff is super friendly and helpful, as we stopped in multiple times to ask questions. In my opinion, you could not have a better location! You are steps to the beach and the national park. Anywhere else in Manuel Antonio would definitely require a car, but we got everything we wanted right outside the hotel! We are so excited to return! ##### Alexis Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sherry 13 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved everything about our stay at Playa Espadilla Hotel and Gardens.
