This was one of our favorite areas. Its geared to tourism but there are many authentic eating options and with many options for tours. Suggest booking more park tour that will include a pass. You can stay at the beach for the rest of the day.

Beautiful beaches, lots of dining options, gorgeous jungle, animals around. Need to bring flashlights to walk at night as pavement is uneven and not always sidewalks. Frequent bus service to take you to beach and points along the way.

Gorgeous beaches, great national park, but very small. Manuel Antonio is hard to get around. Due to narrow roads, there can be a lot of traffic jams. Good buses, no sidewalks. Access to the park is limited and controlled by tour guides. Plan early.

Manuel Antonio National Park was a great adventure. We saw plenty of wildlife and played in the waves at the beach. Bring a refillable water bottle, not disposable, or you won't be able to bring it in.

There are many attractions, but the major park is very crowded. I found smaller mangrove boat tours to be a more enjoyable experience.

Manuel Antonio is at the end of the road. It has a very public beach with lounge chairs and umbrellas for rent, horseback ride providers, parasailing, and even vendors providing surfing lessons. The restaurant selection is small but serves food food.

Hotel Villas Lirio
10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at Hotel Lirio was truly unforgettable! While it’s not a five-star hotel, the service made it feel like it was. Donald and Nicole were very helpful they treated us like family and went above and beyond to make our trip special. The hotel has a charming hacienda-style vibe, with a beautiful pool right in the middle surrounded by lush gardens. My kids practically lived in the pool, and I loved relaxing nearby while soaking in the peaceful atmosphere. Our room was clean and comfortable, breakfast was fresh and delicious each morning, and the location was perfect for exploring the area while still feeling like a quiet retreat. We left with full hearts and can’t wait to return!"
"The hotel in general was great, well kept, clean, with lots of amenities. Staff was friendly and helpful, went out of their way to help me with my questions. There are complimentary transportation services I didn’t expect. My room was upgraded without me asking for anything. It was an overall great experience "
"Wow! This was the perfect hotel. Staff in the hotel and restaurant were fantastic and friendly. Kevin cooked up some tuna we caught on the boat and it was excellent. Also the food at the restaurant was very good. You must try the soup!!
The hanging bridge tour is a must do and free. Saw sunrises and sunsets. So many common viewing areas! Having the golf carts take you up the steepest part of the mountain is great too. Lots of really good restaurants nearby.
Can’t wait to go back!"
"We really enjoyed our stay. Great customer service from every staff member we interacted with. We loved having access to the beach nearby. Happy hour every afternoon by the pool. Lots of wildlife just at our balcony, including sloths, toucans, and monkeys. We loved the stunning ocean view! Decent breakfast buffet included. We had dinner once on site which was ok. Enjoyed my massage. Johnny was great in helping us book our excursion. "
"This place is amazing. So cool, boutique, unique, and posh yet understated. We loved our bungalow and would definitely recommend it. Plus, the on-site bar and restaurant was great! All in all a fantastic stay!"
