Lovely !
It was lovely, room was clean , it is right on the beach with the bar as well. Drinks and food was not the greatest but there is a Mini mart in the beginning of the entrance to buy your own liquor and juice. Hotel room did not have any bugs. The only sucky thing is, is that there is no fridge and microwave. However , there are great restaurants along the road. Would deff come back. Simon & Gaby are great hosts .

Awesome location and view
This place was amazing. The location was on the beach as pictured, and 5 of the 8 rooms have views directly onto the beach. You can see monkeys and sloths in the jungle from your room as well if you’re on the side facing the jungle. It’s also just one mile from the entrance to Manuel Antonio National Park. The bed was comfortable, with more than enough pillows, the air conditioner very quiet, and the shower was excellent with plenty of hot water. The only deficiency I can suggest is that it would be nice to have a coffee maker in the room, but that is certainly a very minor consideration against all of the positives.

This property is excellent. It’s right on the beach. The staff is super lovely and accommodating. You can use the beach all day long and get food and bar service. It’s a really good spot on the beach slightly away from the more touristy free beachfront. I highly recommend and would come back here for sure.

The location is right on the beach which is rare in this part of town. It's walking distance to Manuel Antonio National Park and despite being close to shops, bars, restaurants, and all types of water activities, you can enjoy quiet and relaxing evenings and nights. The food was very good and quite affordable. There are only seven units, but they're spacious, and very clean. The best part of our stay was the staff. I am simply impressed how friendly and helpful everyone was. They really go above and beyond to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. I highly recommend this place. I know I will definitely be back.

Excellent location, road to get to the property needs some attention. Public beach access was a disappointment being right on the premises.

Very close to the beach. Clean little rooms with great shower and bath. A/C, ceiling fans and a dehumidifier in the room. Nice little restaurant and bar on site, cool patio facing the beach where you can sit and listen to the waves crashing. Only 5 minutes from Manuel Antonio Park and just 10 minutes from town and restaurants and stores. Centrally located to the mangrove and horse tours too.

The hotel offers beach-side service, but it was a little slow. During happy hour, it took the entirety of happy hour to have someone take our drink order and bring out the drinks. Adding another beach server would have made a huge difference. The drinks were not the best tasting. The beach was great, and the hotel provides chairs, a little table, and towels. They had boogie boards and surf boards for guests, but they were “out of commission.” The hotel offers an outdoor shower to rinse yourself from the time at the beach. Our room was small but had everything we needed, including cold AC. Our view of the beach was obstructed by plants, but at the same time I think that’s there to offer some privacy since the beach is open to the public. Overall we were happy with what we got for the price we paid.

Perfect stay in Manuel Antonio
This was the perfect place to stay in Quepos/Manuel Antonio. The resort really is right on the beach and having access to the private beach with chairs, umbrellas, beach toys was a really nice perk as it was far less crowded than the public beaches. Happy hour on the beach was amazing! The entire staff was beyond helpful and friendly during the stay. They let us check in early, store our bags and park our car after check out. This is the perfect location in Quepos, it’s walking distance to Manuel Antonio NP, right on the best beach and just a short drive to all the restaurants shops on the Quepos road. The whole place feels like it should cost far more than it does

On the beach hotel with a bar and restaurant. Everything you consume goes on a card on file to limit the cash used and they go over all your transactions with you prior to check-out to make sure you didn't get over charged. We saw monkeys from our balcony the last day.
