Pros; monkeys in the morning, helpful staff, good breakfast, amazing views, good wifi, perfect location for walking to manuel antonio park. Cons: on a super steep hill, elevators are 3 person max, our bathroom couldve used some maintenance, the "king" bed rooms do NOT have king beds. They are queens turned sideways so our feet hung off the bed all night.

Good place to stay for all the right reasons; great location (very close) for walking to entrance of Manuel Antonio Park, quick walk to the beach, warm and friendly staff, excellent breakfasts. Room was clean, had everything you would need. Absolutely beautiful views of the ocean! Lots of restaurants close by. It was a fairly steep grade to walk up to the hotel but they had golf cart shuttles if needed. The only suggestion would be to have a few more pool umbrellas for shade as the sun is very hot! The hotel is showing some wear, but overall recommend this hotel.

Great friendly and helpful staff. Amazing views and local wildlife and flowers. Great location, walk to restaurants, shops and Manuel Antonio National Park. Steep hill to the reception and rooms is a work out but no problem if taken steadily and reception provides golf cart rides as needed. Restaurant food very good too.

Staff were great, especially our server/bartender, room was clean, the view was nice. Our favorite was the included breakfast along with the views of the ocean at the restaurant. The property is located very close to the national park and is a short walk to the beach. We were fortunate enough to see Toucans and Howler Monkeys during our stay. Our room was located directly underneath the restaurant, which made it a little noisy during business hours, but after closing time and before opening, there were no noise issues from the restaurant. Would stay here again, but not directly under the restaurant.

Spotless room on the highest floor, so no noise from the restaurant. Beautiful pool and lovely terrace restaurant. Was a little overwhelming arriving into the town, being harassed by people wanting you to park in their area, but once at the hotel we were treated very well. Easy walk to the beach, but preferred to stay at the hotel with no vendors bothering us.
