Es un complejo con buena ubicación, cerca del parque y de las playas más lindas. Tiene servicio de buffet todo el día donde cenamos casi todas las noches, rico y a precio normal. La atención del personal muy buena. Para mejorar la cama no era confortable y el baño elemental, básico. Destaco la preciosa vista desde las habitaciones.

El hotel está bien situado si quieres ir al Parque Nacional de Manuel Antonio. Además puedes dejar el coche en su parking sin problema. La habitación era pequeña y mal mantenida, tratándose de una cuádruple superior. El baño estaba corroído y olía a cloaca. El aire acondicionado sonaba como si fuese a despedazarse. El personal muy amable. El desayuno algo lento, pero entretenido con los monitos que venían a "robar" las tostadas de los comensales.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was great, very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and was accurately depicted in the online photos. Resturant had good food and the wait staff was awesome. Location very well situated to many different ideal destinations and the wildlife we saw just from our room and the restaurant was amazing. We would definitely return to the property if visiting the area again. I would say the only negative was a person name Justin that sat outside the gate and was constantly trying to pressure you to visit the coffee shop and souvenir store just outside the property. He apparently works for the hotel but was not a good reflection of the hotel. He was constantly trying to get you to buy things, was a little inappropriate with some things he was saying. He gave that used car salesman/hustler type impression that was over the top, frustrating and disappointing all at once.

The service was excellent—staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we felt welcome throughout our stay. The food was another highlight. The location couldn’t be more convenient, perfect for getting around and exploring nearby attractions. Daily room service was a great touch, keeping the space tidy and comfortable. However, the room lacked basic toiletries such as soap, bar shampoo, and lotion. Also, while the room was very clean, they are dated. A renovation in the rooms would really elevate the overall experience and match the quality of the service.

Recommended, amazing staff. Great value 😁

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Great value for money and right next to Manuel Antonio park entrance. Close to the beach also. Room was clean and tidy. Facilities could use a few touch ups and the bed was a bit on the 'too firm' side for me but overall would recommend.
