* The rooms are shipping containers stacked on top of each other (see pics) * Very cheap/poor breakfast not including any type of coffee other than filter ($6 for a cappuccino). * No toiletries provided except for liquid soap.
The hotel staff are very friendly and welcoming. The hotel is on a hill, but the hotel offers golf car services for your convenience. You can see the ocean from every room and from the pool. There are two pools and a restaurant with delicious food and good prices. The rooms are a little narrow as the hotel was built on containers, but rooms are very clean, and comfortable. I would stay again.
Highly recommended! Very clean rooms, nice pools with one the best views of the beach. Very close to all the places of interest. Will come back.
We don’t travel to exotic locations to stay in fancy hotel rooms but their are minimum standards. The sour smell in the room was terrible and not something you could get used to. The king siz d bed was ok but filled the narrow room such that you could barely get by to get to the bathroom. The motel is otherwise adequate and is in a GREAT location if you’re interested in going to the fabulous Manuel Antonio national park. I would NOT recommend this hotel, however.
Wonderful, extremely helpful staff. Very clean and co mfortable stay. Great location . Will come again
Great hotel just a few steps from the entrance to Manuel Antonio National Park and a short 5 min or so walk to the public beach. Close to plenty of restaurants and shops. The hotel is set up in the hill but they have a golf cart that will take you up and down on demand (which we used mostly for going up). Being up on the hill translates to stunning views of the ocean especially from their infinity pool. Also a second smaller and more shallow pool which was great for our toddler. A hot tub for an evening dip would be a great addition. Breakfast was great, again with fantastic views overlooking the beautiful scenery. We had dessert there one night as well and enjoyed the live music. Great choice in the area and priced well compared to other similar quality hotels I found in the area.
Unique design because it's built from shipping containers! The rooms are long but narrow, and there are almost no electric plugs. The views are the best in town as the hotel sits on a steep hill. No elevators, but there are always hotel helpers bringing up on a golf cart. The restaurant has equally great views and good traditional CR breakfast. Pools are large and pleasant. Staff is knowledgeable, friendly and available.
Good hotel with great ocean views. Walking distance to the beaches and Manuel Antonio national park! Delicioso food at the restaurant. Pool was nice but needs some repainting. Our room was very noisy because it was on the third floor (below the restaurant) and every time a chair or table was moved it would be very loud in the room. This was particularly an issue during breakfast. I'd stay here again as long as it is not on the same floor.
Position high on hill but still close to beach and Manuel Antonio National Park is mostly advantageous. Amazing sunset views. Super short walk to park entrance. Gnarly trek back up to room but staff has golf carts and are usually available to shuttle you up the hill. Wildlife (iguanas, frogs, geckos, bats) are very close by and may cruise right over to your door or deck :) Friendly staff, very helpful and courteous. Good happy hour deal and tasty daily complimentary costa rican breakfast
Very close to the park. Fantastic view fronte my room
This hotel was great! Literally right outside the national park! Hotel room was ok, small but clean. The pleather on the couch was pealing off and when I sat on it, it came off onto my legs (gross). Has two pools which were great. Hotel restaurant was fantastic and fairly priced. Would stay again.
The hotel is okay. The view is spectacular. The restaurant is definitely good, foods was great we ate lunch amd breakfast. Staff was very nice.
Very convenient hotel. Next to the park. Wonderful view and very helpful staff and receptionist.
beautiful ocean views, perfect location right next to the National Park, close to bus stops and public beach, clean and comfortable rooms, nice pool, and good breakfast. I recommend this hotel!
