Localização excelente! Hotel lindo, arborizado, silencioso, com muita natureza. Super confortável! Quarto enorme e muito bonito.

Beautiful setting and wonderful wildlife
Pros:

Lovely bright clean room with balcony.
Pool is beautiful with pool side bar.
Super breakfast. The whole experience is very 'jungle esk' . Howler monkeys, macaws, white faced monkeys amongst other things. Great for town and restaurants, beach in 5 minute bus ride away.
I had a wonderful facial and massage which was such a treat.
All staff and friendly and nothing is too much trouble.
Thank you for a wonderful stay and a relaxing spa.

Ecotica Boutique Hotel & Spa
Pros:

Lots of stairs because the hotel is built into the hilly terrain but the setting is spectacular and should definitely be a destination when visiting. We stayed in a bungalow overlooking the pool. We saw very colorful macaws from our patio first thing when we arrived. We had a howler monkey calling out every morning which was great to hear. If you haven't heard a howler monkey then you need to stay here. Every afternoon we had monkeys come through the pool area with some with babies. Careful they may try to steal the fruit out of your drink that was delivered to your sitting area around the pool. Hotel restaurants were excellent and well priced. One is at the pool and the bigger one is up above the arrival area with a tiny casino nearby. Food was excellent and all rooms and parts of the hotel were clean and well cared for. When I return to Quepos and Manuel Antonio I will stay here again.

Beautiful hotel but when being in Manuel Antonio you want the sea view is why you go there.
Pros:

Very friendly staff!! Nature around and very good breakfast.

Cons:

The location, you just always wanted to be on the opposite side of the road with the view and the sun! Very noisy our room was by road.
