Our stay at this hotel was a delightful escape, featuring a beautiful ambiance surrounded by lush greenery and a peaceful atmosphere. The location is unbeatable, just a short walk to the stunning Manuel Antonio National Park. The rooms were mostly comfortable, though there were a few cleanliness issues that could be improved. The dining experience was a highlight, with an impressive breakfast and attentive service that truly stood out. However, the lack of a social area and some unexpected charges for water did put a slight damper on our overall experience.
