Parador Nature Resort and Spa

Parador Nature Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Great location and a very clean room. The staff, from check-in to check-out, were extremely courteous and helpful. Umbrellas were thoughtfully provided in convenient locations throughout the property, which was especially helpful during the sudden downpours we experienced on a couple of days. The buffet breakfast was excellent. The rooms were conveniently located, making it easy to get around either by walking or using the golf carts, which was a nice touch. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay."

La Mariposa Hotel

La Mariposa Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The Mariposa Hotel is one of my favorite hotels. Its proximity to the Central Valley and its beautiful ocean views make for a very pleasant stay. The staff is very friendly and the breakfast is good. Prices at the restaurant are similar to those at restaurants in Manuel Antonio. I will definitely return."

Hotel Costa Verde

Hotel Costa Verde

8/10 Good
"The room we stayed in was a bit small, but made up for it with a beautiful balcony kitchenette. My children loved seeing animals everywhere, from coatis to iguanas to monkeys. Food prices at the hotel retauraunts were higher than anticipated however, and there weren't any grab and go options for drinks or snacks at reception."

Mountain Top Park Hotel

Mountain Top Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The views from Mountain Top are incredible. We could see monkeys, toucans, macaws and more from our balcony and the hotel's restaurant. It's so close to the national park but has its own jungle on site. Jose, the hotel's wildlife guide, was fab - he took us on two guided tours and wad always excited to spot animals and tell us more about them. Would definitely recommend this hotel if travelling to Manuel Antonio and try to book the ocean view if you can"
