The hotel is on both sides of the road. I was given a unit on the opposite side of the beach, but still very close, approximately 5 mins walking distance. Our waitress Rocio was very nice and welcoming. We were able to see monkeys and other animals while on the beach and eating at the restaurant. I also enjoyed walking from the restaurant to the town. It’s about 15 mins walk. The only negative is the building is next to the road and you can hear all the traffic but the positives outweighs the negatives!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It was great having the beach and being close to the park. The room was simple, nothing fancy but the a/c worked well and the garden was well maintained. It's higher priced for the location and beach access.

Close to thebeach. Everyone was very nice. There is no way to reach the office, unless you walk up the hill. Not good in case of emergency. A microwave in room would be nice. Saw lots of wildlife which was cool

The location is wonderful, featuring a very nice beach. The bungalows situated on the hill offer a stunning view; however, the climb to the top can be inconvenient if you have to do it multiple times a day. To reach the beach or the restaurant where breakfast is served, you must cross a street with fast-moving cars. There is no clearly marked crosswalk, making it quite dangerous. Speed bumps are definitely needed in this area.

The Hotel is great I would recommend it to all my friends. But the wifi sucks. Very weak wifi and only intermittent in the rooms No wifi at the beach nor at the breakfast/lunch areas. I think serious attention needs to be paid to the wifi in that hotel as it is an easy solution with low cost and huge benefit to the clients.

We absolutely loved this hotel! It was like paradise! The staff were super friendly and super helpful. The pool and the beach and the restaurant were all amazing. The rooms were great. We had booked a room up the hill and were offered an upgrade when we got there for a reasonable fee and we were so glad we made the change. We will definitely be back to this wonderful hotel!

Awesome view.

For our first visit to Costa Rica, we chose to stop in Manuel Antonio, and we couldn't have picked a better spot! Being right across from the beach was incredibly convenient, even with the busy street. The real highlight was our room at the top of the hill – the view was simply spectacular! Just a heads-up, the climb is no joke, so definitely pack light. We loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable Manuel Antonio experience

I stayed in a mountainside villa for 4 nights with a gorgeous view. The WiFi and AC worked perfectly my entire stay, I put some insect repellant below my door or a beach towel which prevented too many uninvited guests in the evenings, there was some construction happening during the day but I imagine most people would be out and about during the day anyway, the staff were friendly and helpful, and if you have an early tour booked, they let you grab a to go box for the included breakfast which worked great for me :). Overall I really enjoyed my stay and I would stay here again if I were in the area!

We stayed in room #7 and it was a steep climb up the stairs, but the views made it worth it. Rooms were basic with 2 beds, sitting chair, mini fridge, and bathroom. No TV but did not want one with so much to do. WiFi worked great. Breakfast was included and was perfect. Pool was very nice. Restaurant had good menu options and the staff was super nice. Beach chairs and umbrellas provided too.
