We absolutely loved our time at Parador! We dined at all three restaurants, and the food was delicious across the board. Drinks at the upper restaurant near the suites were excellent, and the service there was impeccable. There were countless spots with breathtaking views throughout the property. We walked the Monkey Trail and saw plenty of white-faced monkeys, and even spotted some right on the hotel grounds, which was such a fun up-close experience. We also saw macaws flying by while relaxing at the pool. On a rainy day, we headed to the game room and played ping-pong, which was a great touch. We really appreciated the covered walkways throughout the property, making it easy to get around even in the rain. Our stay couldn’t have been better—this has been our favorite place to stay in Costa Rica.

This is an incredible resort situated on a peninsula with a lot of wildlife, from monkeys to sloths to birds such as scarlet macaws and cara caras. The staff is very, very friendly and helpful! The restaurants serve delicious foods and the Fracata has gorgeous views over the Pacific. Everything was impeccably clean and there were staff members constantly taking care of the premises. They cleaned the room twice a day, always replenishing the fresh towels (large!) and bottles of water. We received a room upgrade (unbelievable room!), checked in 3 hours early and got an extension of 3 hours for check-out, which was fantastic since we went on a tour on the last morning. Our stay was unforgettable and I hope we can return to this paradise!

We had an incredible time at Parador Nature Resort and Spa. The property is beautiful and surrounded by wildlife — we saw monkeys, sloths, iguanas, and so much nature right on the grounds. The pool was fantastic, and the hot tub area was extra hot (which we loved after long days exploring). The staff were absolutely amazing — friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We met so many interesting people from all over the world, which made the experience even more special. Everything is close and easy to access, and the free golf cart shuttle service into town and to Manuel Antonio Park was a huge bonus and very convenient. Drinks were good (a bit pricey, but expected for a resort), and breakfast was wonderful — do not skip the omelet, it’s excellent. Overall, a great experience from start to finish. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
