This is a beautiful property with impeccable polished service. The hotel staff far exceed expectations. They are all super helpful, friendly and warm and go above and beyond at every opportunity. We were greeted with a welcome drink upon arrival. We arrived mid afternoon, stopped at La Fragata for lunch and Nelson, one of the servers was so welcoming and even took the time after lunch to walk us around to show us some wildlife. Another special mention to Jordan at the La Galeria restaurant who was also great and provided exceptional service. He remembered all our names, allergies etc every time we dined there (breakfast is held there). Dining was superb (although pricey). Breakfast buffet was very good. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. There are a couple of adult pools, a family pool, a pool bar. The fitness center is great, which we used several times. They also have trails on the property that you can walk through. A trail also leads to a public beach. They have free shuttles that take you to Manuel Antonio and the beach which was very helpful. The room was on the more basic end but was very clean, comfortable and we had everything we needed. We loved the few days we spent at the property. As other mentioned, we also saw a lot of wildlife. I would choose this hotel again in a heart beat. Highly recommend.
