Room for improvement

We didn't really like the Quepos area in general. It was a dirty beach town with not much to do. The hotel floors were grimy, the shower had mold in the grout and on the curtains in the shower. The air conditioner was barely working and didn't take any of the humidity away. The wifi is in the main areas ONLY, and all the of main areas are outside, so while trying to use the internet we were getting eaten alive by mosquitoes. The reception area also closed at 6pm so while we got there in time, there were about 3 groups that came in later in the day that were not able to check in properly. But, the bed and towels were clean and the staff was as helpful as they could be. The breakfast was a delicious desayuno tipico.

August 2019 Stay

Rooms are a fairly good size and somewhat clean. You basically get 2 flat pillows that are just awful. Location is excellent and the staff were friendly. Pool had no one in it and it was always refreshing.

Experiencia inmejorable en contacto con naturaleza

Experiencia inmejorable. El hotel está muy bien ubicado respecto a restaurantes, bares nocturnos, supermercado y farmacia, todo lo puedes visitar caminando. En el hotel hay un contacto muy cercano con la naturaleza, desde que ingresas te puedes sentir en el bosque de Manuel Antonio. Hay gran oportunidad de ver desde el hotel Animales como monos titi y cariblanco, así como Iguanas y aves. También es común ver Guacamayas volar cerca de la zona. Lorena, la administradora es muy amable y atenta, el personal que sirve el desayuno también es muy agradable. Es mi lugar favorito para hospedarme cada vez que visito Manuel Antonio.

Irréprochable

Le cadre de l'hôtel est parfait : on a vu toucan, singe titi et hurleurs, paresseux dans les arbres de l'hôtel et aux abords. Le personnel est adorable et toujours présent au besoin. Niveau propreté de la chambre (nous avions un studio ) et de l'hôtel en général là encore rien à redire. Le petit dej sur la terrasse c'est le top : 3 options au choix avec toujours au moins une assiette de fruit frais ! Et niveau emplacement , la navette qui passe toute les 15 min devant l'hôtel pour relier le Parc Manuel Antonio, les plages et quepos. A 10 min de chaque point d'intérêt. Un grand merci à toute cette équipe professionnelle. Ce séjour à été notre meilleur sur le Costa Rica.

what a fantastic start to our holiday! The wildlife at this hotel is amazing. We got to see squirrel monkeys, white face monkies daily. We even saw a sloth during breakfast on our first day. The breakfast was great and staff wonderful. Beautiful little spot Thank you

The property location was great with wildlife and birds right on the property. But there were many things broken that they didn’t seem to want to fix. We stayed in a budget room which I would not recommend, it was like a basement room under the stairs that was super small and smelled like mold. The breakfast was good.

Needs improvements - bad wifi

Nice, in the jungle feel around the pool and the breakfast area, but the facility (specifically the bathrooms) is older and could use some upgrading. The internet routers need replacing. All networks were pretty terrible with regards to connecting to them in spite of the signal being strong (we frequently got messages like can't connect or wrong password even though we were certain to have typed in the correct password). Even when you succeeded connecting, pages sometime didn't load or loaded only partially first, then the router seemed to take a brake for a minute or two and then load the rest later. Simple, but healthy breakfast.

Très bon accueil sympathique et professionnel. Joli hôtel dans la forêt humide, chambre un peu biscornue mais bien équipée, propre, bonne douche, bonne wifi et petit déjeuné correct. Seul l'isolation phonique n'est pas bonne et nous avons été dérangé par des voisins très bruyants. Hôtel très recommandable.
