The resort provides a scheduled beach shuttle between the resort and the beach throughout the day.
Our infinity swimming pool is seamlessly integrated into the hillside, offering a feeling of floating in the heart of the jungle. A beautiful lounge area and a convenient drink and snack bar await you. Just below the pool, you'll find two heated Jacuzzis with ocean views to relax and unwind.

The staff and facilities were first class.

Los Altos was our favorite hotel on the trip. The accommodations were beyond spacious. Wish there was a washer/dryer in the unit though. The restaurants, staff and pool area were fabulous. The beach was not what we expected as it was very rocky and difficult to swim. Wish it was a nicer beach!

Another great facility with staff that exceeded expectations. Very friendly and welcoming, open to providing suggestions for local restaurants.

We loved staying in the same apartment. However, some of the beds were really squeaky and it was hard to sleep on them.
01/07/2023
We were very happy with the resort and its staff except for the beach. The beach was terrible. We didn't stay at Manuel Antonio Park to enjoy the beach after our tour because we thought we'd just go to the resort beach. When we got to the resort beach we were very dissappointed!

Another fabulous choice. We were all stunned when we stepped off the elevator to find that the entire floor was ours. Hadn't realized the kids had separate rooms which was wonderful. We had a gorgeous terrace overlooking a raised garden. Dinner was fine at the restaurant, but probably our least impressive meal at the all resorts and the meal was very expensive. It was fabulous that they offered boxed breakfasts for the mornings that we were gone before the breakfast opened. Make sure to specify if you don't want meat in your breakfast omelet.

Love this resort!!

AMAZING resort! Exceeded all of our expectations. Can't recommend enough!

I was very disappointed with this stop, I was really looking forward to being at the beach and this is NOT the place to do it. The road to the beach is washed out and the vehicle that is supposed to be able to do shuttles was broken down, and as mentioned one of us was injured and they made no effort to assist. The apartment was great except that the elevator opens directly into it and at random times strangers would suddenly be looking at us from the elevator. The rest of the resort was tired looking, railings were coming unwrapped, path coverings moldy, and reception staff generally not very friendly. The restaurant staff was pleasant and food was OK. I would recommend staying elsewhere, and if this is the best of Manuel Antonio, I would stay in another town.

The room is fabulous and the pool delightful. Helpful and friendly staff.

The space of our unit was incredible. It was almost too big for just the three of us. We appreciated being close to restaurants and shops as the on site restaurant didn’t really offer a good variety of options. The staff was nice but not always attentive.
07/13/2021
Unfortunately we had a room on the second floor so only had a view of the parking lot. But otherwise everything was great
01/15/2020
Loved this resort! They even had a free guided hike every day which was excellent! We saw toucans and monkeys on the hotel grounds and they had awesome trails. The beach was so nice and they had free shuttles going back and forth every 20 minutes. You could walk to other restaurants and grocery stores. Wonderful buffet breakfast in their gorgeous restaurant overlooking the ocean and grounds. We just loved this place!!!

Wonderful staff, wonderful experience. VERY comfortable rooms and beds.
07/14/2019
Amaaaaazing resort. The grounds and pool were lovely and the room and views over the top. We saw macaws, toucans, sloths and monkeys around the pool and surrounding area. And the location right downtown was stellar with access to all the restaurants and shops.

This was a great place. Staff was warm and personable - always remembered our names. We loved the unique experience of staying in a gorgeous resort with trail and beach access while being just steps away from shopping and restaurants. We will recommend this place.

The penthouse was amazing and was so comfortable for our family. The staff was very nice and helpful. Loved the location of this hotel because we could walk to restaurants that were close by.
01/04/2017
Beach was a distance from hotel...van was not available to take us down to beach but did pick us up. No chairs or towels available at beach. Pool was lovely. Staff was helpful.
12/28/2016
Initially was disappointed with the construction happening at the entrance...I had asked about any construction and was surprised to see it. Noise affected the quiet a bit, but we still overall loved the place.
11/07/2016
Hotel was beautiful. Staff were very pleasant.
06/18/2016
Hotel is typical upper-end condo. Knowing have visited Maharashtra and hidden canopy treehouse and seeing what is in/around the los altos, would not visit this location in the future.
03/28/2016
Amazing to have a full apartment. The restaurant was pretty basic and the pool staff were slow and not very attentive. However, the overall place was superb.
08/27/2015
The accommodations were excellent....
07/07/2015
I had expectations that we could actually go to the beach from the hotel, and the public beach was 15 min away and the very nice beach is in the national park and not easy to get to. It was gorgeous and fine once I changed my expectations, but it would have been good to know that basically we were going to be at the pool, overlooking the ocean.
06/08/2015
Convenient location close to nice restaurants.
05/04/2015
There wasn't a person at the desk to check us out when we left at 4:15am, so we we unable to settle our bill. We were very impressed with the location, beach, pool, and room, and their dedication to conservation and preservation of the environment.

one of the best hotels we stayed in
