The place is fine, it’s clean and has a good location. The front desk staff is a little moody. We booked a 2 x queen beds room, but received 1 bed to share. The place was fully booked so could not change it to what I had reserved. We were also supposed to get a welcome drink, but it was never offered.
Zero pressure in the sink, so have to brush your teeth and wash you hands/face in the shower.
The cleaning staff was super nice and the room very clean.
Kitchen staff was also nice, but moody.
Direct access to the beach and free parking is also a great plus. Not sure if I would stay again, but for the price it’s pretty fair.

This is a unique property if you are looking for something different. Each room is a separate "igloo" so it is very quiet. The grounds are very pretty and quaint. The lobby/restaurant are one space which create a very homy atmosphere. The food was excellent and the bartender was fantastic. The only thing missing in the room was a microwave but the space is limited. There is a mini fridge which is nice. The walk down to the beach is flat and easy. Manual Antonio is very hilly so it is nice to be able to walk so easily to the beach. I would recommend this place!

This is a great hotel in the Manuel Antonio area. We would definitely stay here again. Alan at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and comfortable and the pool was a perfect way to spend a hot day here. The restaurant has incredible food too!

Both Expedia and hotel management did not indicate we had a “jungle” view room. If we knew, we would have reconsidered. We asked for a room change, but it was not possible. Note that the front desk isn’t operational after the restaurant closes.
While the pool is small, it’s clean and welcoming.

The staff was wonderful. Expedia placed in a room ( most likely AI ) we did not reserve and they fixed it immediately. The included breakfast had many options and the location was perfect for us to try many things in the area and surrounding areas.

Super cool hotel right off the main road to Manuel Antonio National Park! Short walk to the beach with a mini mart and bus stop right across the street. Friendly staff, clean igloo, with comfy beds made for a nice home base for a few days of exploring the area.
