Property has some age on it but is well maintained. Don’t expect a five star hotel here but it’s clean and the staff aims to please. Restaurant food is very good and priced right. Bartender knows her way around and can make you just about anything you order. It’s just minutes from Manual Antonio National Park.
Absolutely loved this stay! Great staff, easy parking, beautiful view, incredible room with lots of space - it was all perfect! 10/10 recommend to any one looking to visit this area.
The location was great! The pool was beautiful. The staff was friendly. The guys that drove the golf cart to take you to and from your room were great! the rooms were straight up the mountain. Very steep path or 80 steps! We enjoyed the very limited free breakfast with the monkeys running along the power. The food was average. The room was nice. The bed mattress was horrible. Wash cloths were not provided. Coffee was not supplied. 2.50 for a 3 cup pouch at reception. Was it nice? Yes. Would I stay again? No
This property is in a good location in Manuel Antonio. You get a partial view of the ocean. Room was good enough for 4 people. Breakfast strangely enough same across multiple hotels.
This property is on a hillside with many stairs and a partial, relatively steep ramp all well away from parking area. In my opinion would be very difficult for people with ambulatory disabilities.
Close to national parks and beach by car. good for basic hotel get to see monkeys on property which was nice to be so close to animal
There was no bar service, the wifi did not work properly. The golf cart service was not available sometimes, area wise its a good location.
This hotel was great. The staff were all very friendly and speak great English. The room had a nice faraway view of the ocean and very close up view to the swimming pool. Getting to the room was quite an adventure. They offered services to help you with your suitcase, breakfast was tasty. Convenient location to city center and Manuel Antonio National Park.
Room was very small
I stayed with my son for 4 days and it was perfect for us. We got a small economy room which had a/c and a ceiling fan. It was cleaned very well daily. The staff was extremely accommodating and friendly. Breakfast was fresh and a la carte every morning. There is a bus stop directly in front of the hotel that takes you up and down from Quepos to Manuel Antonio.
Everything in this property was great, starting from the staff and service, everyone really friendly, they got us to the tours that we wanted to do and explained everything. The location is super convenient you can either take a taxi wherever you are going or take the city bus that it is so inexpensive and secure right outside of the door of the their restaurant and it will take you to the downtown of Quepos that is 5 mins away or to Manuel Antonio that is 10 mins away. While in the pool you have the opportunity to see Lapa birds and Titi Monkeys.
TERMITES
TERMITES - needed to change hotels. Hotel management never responded to us or showed any sort of concern for the issue.
Property is very old. It is what could be expected in a country like Costa Rica, but the photos send a different vibe. The rooms are exposed to a main road with lots of 24/7 traffic which means sleep interruption. I would not reconsider staying there again. Its a shame because this could be a great location due to all the wildlife that gathers around it.
Beautiful grounds, clean, friendly and helpful staff. Room was sparsely furnished no place to sit, no reading lights.
Had a wonderful stay! The pool in the jungle was great & all the staff were excellent! The room we had was small & the bed was too … but it was a great stay!!
Very friendly staff. Most of the staff we were on a first name basis by the time we left. The property is beautiful, and has animals everywhere. What we saw was parrots, monkeys, iguanas, and more.
Nice place
Nice place!! Very friendly
Fantastic hotel, really kind and friendly staff, wonderful room and splendid surrounding . Lots of birds in the property and incredible view at sunset . Just a place I can’t wait to come back and I highly raccomando it to everyone
Not a place of peace and quiet
This hotel is about 6km up the road from Manuel Antonio Park, on a busy road, which is very noisy, from 5am late into the night - cars, motorbikes, and engine brakes. There is also an insight restaurant which plays it up evening, and on the last night, a live band played loud enough to shake my bed, until mid night. If this is your thing, then it is a lot of fun, if you are looking for peace and quiet, this is absolutely not the place to stay. The room was very small, which a double bed and desk which basically took all the space. Breakfast was a mediocre affair, and the lady there spoke no English, so be prepared for a language barrier if you don’t speak Spanish. She was friendly, however. The pool was nothing special - it reminded me of what you might get at a Super 8. This place was the 4th of 5 places I stayed at in Costa Rica, and the most disappointing,
Lovely
Beautiful gardens, helpful and polite staff, clean rooms, good breakfast, lovely pool. Really happy with our stay
Nice, basic rooms, clean, coffee maker, basic amenities. Nothing fancy but nothing to complain about! Great to have an affordable decent restaurant on site. pool nice. Landscaping pretty. "Hike" to get to room but I am in excellent shape and my 4 20-something kids were fine too
Was exactly as I expected. My ac worked and the room was in good shape. Some parts of the grounds and amenities are becoming dilapidated, but my individual experience was good, and the price was good for what I got.
The economy rooms are a nightmare. Located in the back of the hotel, they are a far walk and require the golf carts that come up to reverse, which makes a squealing noise which woke me up several times. Additionally, the beds were painful to sleep in (this goes for the economy rooms and the room they upgraded me to [for free, so I appreciate that] but those beds were terrible) The location is good and the staff is very nice, but until the beds are improved I would not stay here.
Great service in a tropical paradise
We were very much looking forward to our stay but a turned ankle delayed our arrival by a day. It took several phone calls (not easy since I didn't have cellular coverage consistently) but we were able to switch our reservation with the help of the very friendly and capable staff. The property is between Quepos and Manuel Antonio, and contrary to what is listed on the What's Around section of the hotel description, it is not a 10 minute walk to Manuel Antonio National Park. It is a 10+ minute cab ride or a 20 minute bus ride. Not sure what is meant by the statement that it is in a national park, but it is not in Manuel Antonio National Park. The other walking times also seem to represent cab times as all the things listed were a good distance away. Walkable, but not in the times listed (My daughter and I are both fast walkers). The description also mentioned a resident sloth, but that wasn't true anymore. We were visited one day at breakfast by a hungry group of monkeys that had their eyes on my breakfast and the other day by an equally hungry and cheeky pair of parrots. Great entertainment! The service at breakfast was great and they serve a nice "typical" although a bit stingy on the fruit. Our room was acceptable, but very small and the beds very squeaky. Not sure if the tv actually worked, but it didn't seem to. We weren't there to watch tv so I never asked. The security cart beeping during the night was also an annoyance when trying to sleep.
Great property up on the hill, in the forest. staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice pool setting. Sound proofing not great in the rooms, I could hear the room above and beside me, other than that, I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel
We stayed for one night. Property was easy to find and room was comfortable.
The property was lovely and the rooms were clean and nice-looking. The hammocks and rocking chairs outside were a nice touch. The staff was very helpful and friendly and the rate was good. It was disappointing to not have the restaurant open and especially no coffee provided with the coffee pot in the room! The shower also leaked onto the bathroom floor.

We loved this property. My daughter, her friend and myself traveled to CR for the 1st time. I read the previous reviews for this place and took a chance. It paid off. The staff is AWESOME! The area is fantastic. A car is good to ahve so you can get to the beaches and local towns whenever you want. A clean pool on site, but no other amenaties. Monkeys came through a couple times to eat on the banana trees. I would definitely stay here again.
I checked into the facility and then decided to upgrade to a very beautiful room on the top floor. The staff at the front desk, the security guard, and the view from the deck on the property were all amazing. I will definitely return in the future. Front desk was excellent at helping me arrange my bus back to San Jose. Bus stop is in front of hotel and a squirrel monkey gave me a visit
I loved this place.The staff was super nice and the place was beautiful.!
Great hotel with friendly and attentive staff in Manuel Antonio.
Check in process was difficult. Reservation stated breakfast was included but was not.
The property is as beautiful, peaceful and close to nature as 1 can get. If offered the upgrade room w/ partial ocean view, jump on it as its quite an ocean view ..as well as an incredible view of the whole property. Monkeys, birds and Rambo, the 3 legged Iguana. I lucked out at daybreak and saw a Agouti feeding on the lawn. (Wow!!). Francisco made me feel like I was at the Four Seasons with his attention to every detail or need. The entire staff was like Francisco. I cannot say enough kind words about my 3 nights there. And central to everything n Quepos and Manuel Antonio. 5 stars!!
Great stay
Great hotel, very friendly staff, quiet relaxing location and beautiful hotel grounds.
I enjoyed staying in hotel. The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was good.
This was a neat place for our family to stay. The rooms were basic and clean. It felt like we were staying in a tree house. Great views
Great staff! We arrived late and the security man had to check us in. He was absolutely the nicest man ever! The place is clean and extremely friendly. I would definitely stay here again.
Excelente, el personal muy atento cumpliendo todos los protocolos para contribuir con el distanciamiento social y poder disfrutar de nuestra estadia
Normal service, not soap and alcohol into the rooms. beautiful place and nature.
Very nice hotel location. Staff very friendly and profesional. A lot of activities in the area, national Park and beaches. Rooms need a little makeup, but in general is very good hotel
Bed is not comfortable, makes noise with my every tolling.
The prople working there were very kind and engaging (i find that to be very common in Costa Rica). The property was quaint. They are not very good at setting up activities. We had them arrange two and they were not great. A lot of the issue was due to a lack of specific communication. If you are going to stay here make sure you have managed activities yourself. Don't stay here if internet in your room is important, ours did not work at all over the three days we stayed there.
Sloth and baby living on property... plus jesus lizards!! Staff was amazing, and very helpful. Highly recommend!!
The staff and facilities were excellent. There were two miscommunications but both were quickly remedied. I highly recommend this facility.
The Best Ever!
My husband and I had an amazing stay here. The employees were extremely kind and went out their way to make sure we will having a great time. One day it was raining hard, so my husband and I were going to wait in the restaurant until it stopped raining but instead one of the employees went to the office and brought us back an umbrella. When we were leaving the office even called for our taxi. The location was perfect with the bus stop right in front of the resort. The drinks and food were great, I was very sad to leave. When we return we will be staying here again!
We complained about the room. there was no room for suitcases and no closet. there was a small tall shelf but was not enough for anything. No hot water.The room was a corner room of a a kind of utility building which has a laundry room and storage. This room should not be used as a guest room. Their response to our complain was not accurate. We checked out in 2 days. No refund for the last 5 days charge. Very disappointed.
Beautiful location and views, great breakfast, quiet
Will stay here again!
We loved this resort. Very reasonably priced and close to everything. It was a quiet setting nestled in the bottom of a mountain. Close to Quepos and short drive or bus ride to Manuel Antonio National Park. While at this resort don’t forget to take the steps behind the rooms up to the top look out. We didn’t realize it was there until our last day and you could sit up there and see great sunsets and a sweeping view of the ocean.
The staff was great. They made our stay enjoyable. They were very helpful with any problem we had. The breakfast was awesome. Only wish they had a jacuzzi.
Enjoyable stay
The property was lovely and we enjoyed seeing all the animal life. Everyone who worked there was so kind and friendly. The beds weren't the most comfortable, but I was grateful for air conditioning. I did need an eye mask, though, for the numbers that were glowing so brightly off the air conditioner all night. We also enjoyed the restaurant on the property--good breakfasts and nice to have a close option after a day of adventuring. Easy, easy access to the bus that runs between Manuel Antonio and Quepos.
Tabulia Tree was a charming place to stay. The property has rooms spread around and there were golf carts to take us from our room to the reception. Service was courteous and helpful. We needed laundry done in a hurry and they were very accommodating. The rooms could do with a freshening up but the beds were comfortable. Breakfast was included and there was a good selection. The front desk helped organize all our tours. We were very happy overall.
Beautiful, relaxing hotel.
Hotel is perfect! Beautiful grounds and view of jungle and ocean. Absolutely great place to relax and enjoy.
Excellent service, staff, & room arrangements!
Amazing stay at this hotel, awesome staff. Beautiful location and views. Will be staying at this hotel next time I visit Costa Rica. This hotel is highly recommended.
Great find in Manuel Antonio
We loved this hotel. It has a beautiful garden where we saw Iguana's, Tucans and even a Jesus Christ lizard. The pool is spotlessly clean and was great to use because the weather was warm and humid.The restaurant is excellent and the food very reasonably priced. We really enjoyed the 2 for 1 drinks during Happy Hour - the bartenders were very friendly and made great drinks. While this hotel is a few kilometers from the town center, you can catch a bus right outside the hotel which will take you to the public beach & National Park for 350 Colones (60 cents). But most of all we liked the wonderful service from the staff - Andres, Georcy, Shean Carlo and Sissy were truly exceptional and made our stay most memorable. There were only a couple of things that we would like to see improved 1. the main light in the bedroom was dim (but bathroom very well lit 2. The wifi in our room was weak (but was decent in the verandah outside) 3. You had to buy the coffee for the coffee maker in the room But overall this is a great place & excellent value for your money! We will stay there again.
April 2018 Stay for 2 days
The room was nice but in the middle of the night the electricity went out for a few hours and the room got extremely hot and humid. Friendly front desk clerk (Cici) and staff, breakfast was nothing to write home about (I'd skip) - pool was refreshing. The lower rooms were very close to a busy main road so it was very loud.
Perfect Little Beach Hotel
We were changing hotels to get out of Quepos and the Tabulia Tree came to the rescue. Cece, Andres and Gorce were perfect hosts, providing the hospitality we were looking for. They were friendly and helpful to all guests. This little gem of a hotel is on the road to Manuel Antonio Park. It's build on a hill so it has beautiful views. - especially if you're willing to walk all the way to the top. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The hotel pool was perfect for cooling off at the end of the day. The hotel has it's own restaurant where you get a complimentary breakfast - They also have delicious blackberry milkshakes. The hotel grounds have lots of wildlife including frogs, lizards and iguanas of all sorts. There are also capuchin and squirrel monkeys that visit the hotel grounds almost everyday. Our biggest regret is that we didn't move to this hotel sooner! Do yourself a favor and book a room today.
Pura Vida
Great stay at Tabulia Tree Hotel. We stayed for 4 pleasant nights of relaxation and exploration. An easy bus ride (5mins) into either Manuel Antonio beach or Quepos. Very attentive staff to assist in our needs. Muchos gracias to Andrez and Georcy for exceptional care during our stay. 😁
Good Location between Quepos and Manuel Antonio. Bus stop right there if you are using public transportation. Airport shuttle service is available during limited hours. Contact the property in advance to get details. I left at 7:30 am and still had to pay for a cab. FYI. Room was clean and amenities were nice. They provide beach towels daily! Breakfast was simple but good (coffee, fruits, and a egg and meat choices) and got us on our way. Overall good stay for the price.
Everything great except WiFi ok
This hotel is like staying in a really nice treehouse. It was clean and the service is top notch. We saw two giant iguanas on the property and toucans outside our room. The location was good because it was in the middle of the hill near other restaurants and only about 10 min drive to Manuel Antonio forest. The only thing negative was that the WiFi was spotty.
Rustic and charming, decent location.
Overall I’ve enjoyed my stay. The rooms are a little rundown but so cute! There were lots of little dead bugs around and a bit of dust which showed that a once over could have been done before we got there but it still felt pretty clean. You have to buy the coffee for the coffee maker at reception but it’s pretty good. I’d say it’s a little overpriced, and wifi is really spotty , but still would recommend it for sure. It’s a steep climb but the staff are really friendly and always willing to give you a ride up.
Very pleasant stay
Nice stay
Tabulia Tree was perfect for us. The hotel itself is clean and comfortable, and the walk into Quepos isn't bad. We saw many cool-looking iguanas on the hotel property
Lots of wildlife
The staff were helpful and pleasant, the bed mattresses were not very comfortable, there could do with more lighting on the stairs as the pool did not close until 10pm and it got dark by 6:30pm, there was a tricky descent, there was no view of the sea unless you went on high, there was all manner of wildlife that we saw from big lizards to Toucans, it was pleasant enough stay the breakfast was good.
Great location and nice staff!
We loved the iguanas hanging out by the pool. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast that came with the room was very tasty and generous. Close to the beach and the National Park entrance.
Nice Hotel!
The room was comfortable and the full staff was super nice and helpful. The rooms can be a bit noisy at night due to the wildlife (lizards) that live in the area. We would hear constant crawling on the roof during the night but nothing too loud that would keep us up. We would definitely return if we're in the area.
Really nice
Really nice, different hotel. Staff very nice. Close to Manuel Antonio
We arrived to this hotel, slightly up the hill from Quepos built beautifully surrounded by dense Costa Rican Flora. Excellent service, clean rooms with strong water pressure and effective air conditioning ( takes a little bit for the airconditiomer to kick in because of the heat and humidity ). Lots of eating places and other hotels near by. We went to Issimo, it's sister hotel to celebrate our first night in Costa Rica, live music and gourmet food. Had continental breakfast every day and Costa Rican dinner one night at Tabulia Tree. Lots of Iguanas sightings at the hotel but did not see any monkeys. Swimming pool is up the elevation with a gorgeous view of the beach with a cocktail bar. Lots of beaches and marina within a short driving distance.
Close to Manuel Antonio
The room itself was great and close to the National Park we were visiting. The only downside is that the room did not have a mini-fridge so we couldn't keep any cold water, especially since it is so hot in this country.
Nice hotel with lovely gardens and pool
Very friendly professional staff most of whom were bilingual. Nice big room with plenty of hot water.
Nice hotel
The pool was nice, workers were pleasant. Front desk was very helpful.
Great location.overly Expensive resturant
Great hotel and great location and friendly service. Extremely Overpriced resturant
Could have made us feel more relaxed
There was an issue with our door lock. The hotel was unable to move us to another room, so we had to leave our bags at the lobby (not cool)
Great hotel in a beautiful lush garden setting
Hotel is located on top of a winding road in a lush garden setting. We were a family of four vegetarians and enjoyed the freshly prepared breakfast with fruits, rice, beans, plantain and toast. We liked our morning walks and also easy access to the beach by car. Extremely friendly staff; very helpful with making local tour arrangements. Our children enjoyed the nice pool. Great experience overall.
Beautiful are for wildlife and staff great
Too far to walk to Manuel Antonio but excellent bus device immediately outside hotel and taxi service need to get rate first Restaurant great. Pool table and games and very friendly staff Helpful for travel information locally
Good time !
Overall we really liked this hotel. It's close to manuel antonio and is in quepos. It was really clean, room was spacious, pool area was really nice and we got to see a lot of wildlife. My only complaint is with the wifi, there was no wifi in the rooms, only in the common areas which would've been fine but half the time it would not work. Would stay again as we all really enjoyed it despite the wifi not working all the time!
Great place close to everything. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Had spider monkeys and staff would let you know so you can see them.
Great hotel! Friendly staff! .................………................................
Nace hotel
Clean, near to Chepos and Manuel Antonio national park. We can see monkeys while you are having breakfast . Staff is ver y helpful.
Nice room in the rainforest
Great view of the coast. Staff was excellent and porter took our bags to the room. Path to room is steep but staff will assist with golf cart rides. Room was small but very clean and nice. Great food!
Beautiful hotel between Quepos and Manuel Antonio
We arrived, checked in and were greeted with mango juices! We had a gentleman drive us and our luggage in a golf cart to a second level Seems like they are responding to all the ridiculous complaints about there being stairs and having to "walk up a hill"... It is hardly anything as it IS built on a mountain side we were surprised with how easy it was given the negative feedback. Everyone was very pleasant, the waitress for breakfast was singing along to her pop music and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Our room was a little it small but we liked that the price included breakfast and a pool!
Good proximity to Manuel Antonio
Hotel was close to Manuel Antonio Park, but in a nice quiet area. Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. If you can't manage stairs, this is not the hotel for you. Our room was up at the top of a big hill with lots of stairs to access it; no parking near rooms. Hotel is a bit older, but rooms are nice and spacious.
Nice hotel friendly staff
Tabulia is built on a hill, so there is some incline to the hotel but most of Manual Antonio is hilly. They have a golf cart for those of you who don't want walk up hill. Staff super nice. Grounds well maintained. If your like me and have to stay connected the in room wifi is not good. So you may have to hang out in the restraunt if you need to get some work done.
The staff were welcoming and kind. The hotel grounds were lovely. Breakfast was delicious, and we loved the "Typical" with eggs cooked to order. We had a pleasant stay. I have read some of the other recent reviews and find them to be unfair and a reflection of entitled American behavior. If you are differently abled, this place may not be the most convenient for you, as it is situated on a hill. Our only complaint was that a younger staff member had the music at an uncomfortably loud level while we were alone in the restaurant eating an early dinner. We asked for a lower volume and another staff member obliged.
Great place to stay!
This hotel was great in every way! The rooms were nice, fresh and clean. The grounds were beautiful and we even had a family of 50 spider monkeys join us in the morning one day. The pool was beautiful and we enjoyed a nice sunset swim which was gorgeous. I would definitely recommend this hotel!!
Nice place to stay
Nice place to stay for the money. Room large, quiet and comfortable. Convenient to bus. Nice breakfast buffet. The staff was very helpful.
Great hotel for the price.
The great hotel for the price. Very rustic, but exactly what I wanted. My son, five years old, loved it there. They were very accommodating with him.
Tabulia Tree Hotel and Villas
Sticky hot water. Had to keep the bathroom door shut. Our room was fatherest even the hotel had many vacancies, and next rooms were in construction, so noisy from earlier in a day through out the day. It is located on the hillside so it is good walk ups. Not recommend to seniors.
You can see sloths on the hotel facilities
We arrived on a late evening, at checking we find out that our room does not have a small refrigerator, when requested one, were told that none of the rooms had one. The hotel is located on a beautiful hill, the staff at the checking desk ask the security guard to help us pull our luggage up a steep cement hill which was very slippery, our room was the second to the last on top of the hill. We found out the next day that there were also stairs, at least these were not slippery, thank God, I was ready to check-out, the hill was very slippery and scary. Almost to the end of our stay, one of the doors of a room close to ours was openned and we saw not only a refrigerator but also a kitchenaid. Why did they lie? We offered to pay the difference, this was dissapointing since it would have been nice to have a cold drink specially after doing such a hike to our room. The steep hill was clean only after I complaint about it being very slippery the next day. This hotel is not for anyone out of shape or have trouble walking or going up a hill/stairs. There was only one waiter in the hotel restaurant who gave great service and was very helpful, if you asked, on letting you know what places are best to see and when.
Great getaway
A nice vacation stay in Manuel Antonio away from the hustle closer to the park. The gardens/grounds were lush and well taken care of. The hotel was close to the beach. Food in the restaurant was very good and service was great. The pool was quite refreshing and had a great view of the beach.
Great Hotel!
the hotel is very comfortable, with excellent service. It is not close to the beach or the park. That is the one con. Overall, a very nice stay at Tabulia Tree Hotel
Costa Rica vacay
The hotel staff were very helpful, friendly -- especially Oliver at the front desk. Room was impeccably clean, linens were changed daily. Air conditioning worked extremely well. Room was comfortable.
Totally worth it!
We booked here as a bit of a respite from the cheap hostels we'd been staying in across the country. Within ten minutes of arriving, we saw a docile iguana come down the beautifully landscaped path leading to hotel reception--it was fantastic! The staff us amazing. Everyone was extremely helpful. Oliver speaks perfect English and is always available and eager to answer questions. Gloria doesn't speak English, but with my modest language abilities, she helped us arrange laundry service, which is normally not offered through the hotel, but she talked to the maid for us. Alexander served us breakfast in the mornings, and I truly never could ask for a sweeter and more accommodating waiter. And the morning breakfast was great! Coffee--excellent! AC in the room, safe available, beach towels I loan Dsily for no extra charge, and comfortable bed. Finally, it was close enough to MA to be convenient, but far enough away to be a quiet retreat from all the tourists. Overall, I was very, very pleased.
Affordable and basic property.
The hotel itself has the basic needs for your stay. Note that you are not paying for a high set of amenities but the basic ones. Standard rooms are small, yet they are equipped with A/C, TV and hot water (shower). Wi-Fi only available at the repection/restaurant. Nice and clean pool. Distance/steps to the rooms may be an issue to some travelers, keep in mind you will need to walk 80-100 feet to where the standard rooms are located. It may be a longer distance to "suites" and pool.
Terrible
Terrible evretihing this hotel terribe Hotel staff Terrible
One night stay
Helpful staff, they guided me to my room, very nice room, small but very confortable, bathrooms need to be updated but they were clean.
This hotel was pretty good
The experience was overall good. When we first arrived the staff put us in a room that we didn't originally pay for. It was an uncomfortable situation trying to clarify this. I payed for the standard room and got another type which I didn't like very much because there were 2 rooms; one had the air conditioner and the other a tiny fan. So one room was hot while the other was freezing. Non of the rooms provide a refrigerator as we expected except the Tiki rooms which are more expensive duplex types. The walk up the hill didn't bother us. THis was part of the 'experience'. After my persistent questioning about the room I should have received the staff kindly changed our room to the tiki room without charging us more. This was very nice and we were happy. Great balcony, very roomy with a big fridge. The breakfast was very good. I was hoping for pancakes every morning for the kids the rest was good.
dump
I didn't enjoy my stay at all. The rooms r in the woods. Not that clean. There were animal's jumping on the roof in the middle of the nights. About 5min drive to the beach. I would recommend staying somewhere else. There r much nicer places in Manuel Antonio.
Spring Vacation
The hotel is nice, the service was super, the only thing I can say is that the bathroom does not have enough ventilation. needs a microwave. Everything else was fine for us. location, service ahhh the hotel is still going through some changes so I think it will get better and better, I will come back definitely I just hope they make those 2 changes... the hotel rooms where all the way up but we had no problem with it. Thank you Tabullia and to all the people who made our staying a nice vacation. they will help us with the tours I did not need to booked them ahead of time.. very pleasant environment!
