Beautiful place, with its own beach that is a plus, food and service at the beach was excellent. We saw more animals and closer here at the beach hotel that at the National Parks.

Staff was helpful, great view from the room, good food at the restaurant.
It's a lovely property on the beach and the staff is kind and helpful. The breakfast was great. We stayed in the villas which were at the top of the hill, so be ready to walk up and down stairs. The room was clean, but there were several little things that didn't work right - bathroom door didn't always close and there were ants in the bathroom every day. But the beds were comfortable and we slept well.
best spot near Manuel Antonio without getting caught up in the noise by the park. They provide beach chairs and umbrellas which was great. Beautiful pool, great restaurant and the service from Juan Carlo was outstanding.The capuchins were great fun to watch as they ran up and down the property walls.
The hotel has access to the beach and the staff is friendly. However, the hotel is divided in 2 sections one near the beach and the other crossing the street, near the reception. The last ones are very noisy and do not have view. You need to cross, the main street to go to the restaurant and all services. It is not recommendable for people with mobility difficulties if you are in this section of the hotel
We loved our stay at Karahe and only wish we could have stayed longer. We stayed on the beach side and it is the best choice because it gives you easy access to the beach, pool, and restaurant. The breakfast buffet was good and the happy hour was awesome! The beach is absolutely beautiful and the kids spent hours playing on boogy boards that we rented from the hotel. We discovered that we had a flat tire upon checkout and the maintenance man helped us change it and reception directed us to a nearby repair shop. Everyone made us feel welcome and well cared for. As my son said, this was the best hotel of our trip!
This is such a beautiful property. Fantastic beach and restaurant.

Clean rooms, friendly staff. The property is divided by a road. The room we booked was on the hill as opposed to being closer to the beach. We were lucky to change over to the beach side of the property by paying a little extra. Biggest advantage is that the property has its own private beach. Private parking and access to the beach def are the big plusses. Half.a mile down the road is the Manuel Antonio national park.
