What a lovely hotel we chose for our stay in Manuel Antonio! Super clean, quiet, in the perfect location: at walking distance to the beach and to the National Park, with its own restaurant and surrounded by several nice restaurants and shops. Everyone was just incredibly kind, from the reception to the cleaning service, to the staff in charge of the restaurant. Thanks so much to all of them. The swimming pool was never crowded: it was a pleasure to relax there after a long day spent hiking or at the beach. The bus stop of TRACOPA (the company that runs the bus service from San José) and of the local bus to Quepos (which runs every 10 minutes) is just a short walk away.
If you like to have more interaction with the several animals that live in the area, ask for a room with a balcony (we stayed in room 14): you will enjoy daily visits from iguanas, birds, monkeys, and the occasional heavy rains!
