Pros:

The hotel grounds were stunning and the maintenance crew were always working to keep things looking great. There were several public bathrooms that were easy to access from the pool area and always very clean. The daily breakfast by the pool was a real bonus. The food was delicious and the service excellent. The location was perfect. Easy to walk to many restaurants and shops. The room was very spacious and plenty of room to unpack. Housekeeping kept everything clean and tidy. The receptionist was always there to help with any of our needs. I can not wait to return. The wildlife was amazing. We saw lots of monkeys daily, capuchin, howlers, and squirrel. We saw macaws by the pool a couple times and a few agoutis here and there. We loved happy hour at the pool. It was also very convenient to have Yolo's restaurant at the hotel. We ate there several times and the food was good. My partner said the blackened fish sandwich was the best he ever had.

Cons:

I have no complaints.

We had a great stay and really enjoyed the staff.
Pros:

I liked that the resort was close to a few shops to walk around but also still seemed remote when in the center of the property. The pictures on line represented what the hotel was like in reality.

Cons:

The steps to the pool were a bit much but that was the only negative I had.

7 fantastiske dager på Ecotica
Pros:

Overnattingsstedet var rent, velstelt og lå veldig koselig til i en liten oase. Personalet er ekstremt vennlige og får deg til å føle deg som hjemme. De var også behjelpelige med transport og andre forespørsler.

Cons:

Ingenting

Pros:

This is a beautiful, stylish hotel in a fantastic location. We loved the bar area, which is perfect for watching sports, playing pool and board games. The pool is surrounded by nature, and we were thrilled to spot macaws, toucans, and monkeys nearby. The early morning wake-up calls from the howler monkeys was a unique and memorable experience, and I would recommend using ear plugs if you don’t want to wake up early.
The service was excellent, particularly at breakfast in the La Poza restaurant—a special thanks to Moses for his great hospitality. The hotel is very clean; however, the pool water did cause some green staining on my light coloured swimsuit and legs. Overall, a great place to stay!

Wunderschönes Hotel mit vielfältiger Flora und Fauna
Pros:

Unfassbar schöne und gepflegte Anlage! Das Zimmer war sehr groß und hatte alles, was man braucht. Das Personal ist extrem freundlich, und der Zimmerservice ist einfach nur herausragend.
Am Pool kann man nach einer Wanderung durch den Nationalpark entspannen.
Beim Frühstück kann man zwischen einigen, warmen Optionen wählen, und alles war sehr lecker.
Auf der Anlage direkt kann man jede Menge Tiere beobachten: Brüllaffen, Kapuzineraffen, Totenkopfaffen, Aras, Frösche, Geckos, Kolibris.
Wir würden hier jederzeit wiederkommen.

Cons:

Der Wasserdruck der Dusche ist wirklich sehr schwach, und aus dem Abfluss hat es recht unangenehm gerochen. Aber das ist Jammern auf hohem Niveau.

Una estancia perfecta
Pros:

Las habitaciones son muy espaciosas y el hotel es muy bonito. El bar Yolo nos encantó, se come muy bien y luego para tomar algo mientras se escucha música en directo es genial. Lo mismo que la piscina, se está súper a gusto y el bar que hay allí es precioso, rodeado de naturaleza y con música, te quedarías todo el día. El camarero, súper simpático. Los desayunos, también están bastante bien.

Cons:

Hay que subir muchas escaleras

היה מדהים- מלון בוטיק בלב הטבע הפראי
Pros:

מלון בוטיק במרכז העניינים, קרוב לפארק הלאומי ולחופים היפים באיזור ריק נסיעה של 5 דק׳ לכיוון.
ממליץ בחום על חדרי הבונגלו המקנים אווירה רומנטית בלב הטבע הפראי (בשונה מהחדרים הרגילים שפחות התחברנו אליהם)
השירות היה מעולה, צוות אדיב חדרים מתוחזקים ברמה מאוד גבוהה נקיון חדרים כל יום.
ארוחת הבוקר במסעדת הבריכה הייתה מיוחדת ומשביעה (בחירה מתפריט).
הקופים התוכים והציפורים המיוחדות מסביב ועל צמרות העצים שידרגו את החוויה

Cons:

מי שיש לו בעיה עם מדרגות אזי המלון לא בשבילו.

Découverte du parc Manuel Antonio et environs.
Pros:

Le personnel fut très compréhensif car, suite a notre première nuit très bruyante de part la proximité de la route, il nous a très gentiment trouvé une solution dans un bungalow au calme.

Cons:

Les chambres situé proche de la route principal ne sont pas équipé de double vitrage.
