5/5 - Excellent
It is amazing

If you're spending some time in El Cerro, Manuel Antonio Nature Park & Wildlife Refuge and Rancho Tipico don Juan are top sights worth seeing.

While Valle Pura Vida might not have many sights to explore, venturing just a little farther will lead you to top things to see and do like Manuel Antonio Nature Park & Wildlife Refuge and Playa La Macha.

Highly recommend safe, clean, convenient, awesome staff. Perfect location for the area so much around to do and short cab rides

My husband and I stayed at Gaia after I found it online, and WOW- the ratings and photos didn’t even come close to preparing us for what awaited. I’ve truly never experienced a hotel like this before. From the breathtaking views to being surrounded by jungle, national park, and a macaw refuge, Gaia ...

Stayed in the Townhouse suite and it was absolutely amazing! So comfy and beautiful and they restocked snacks and water for me daily.

The property is gorgeous! It is surrounded by trees, plants, and wildlife. The staff are very attentive and helpful. The food at the hotel restaurant is made fresh and taste delicious. The beach and Manuel Antonio National Park are a short distance away. The market and restaurant are walking distance ...

Great view of the ocean from the porch. That alone made it worth the stay. It's also within walking distance to a bus stop. It is very basic. The beds are uncomfortable. The noise from the restaurant and bar next door can go on fairly late.

It is amazing
Beside being robbed and having personal items stolen from friends and my safety questioned, Manuel Antonio was clean, the food was great and fresh and the area was beautiful.
It was a great area to visit! We had some wonderful meals in the area. The people we met/spoke with were friendly and helpful. The beaches overall were clean, easily accessible. We were disappointed that it was not easy to walk between establishments
I know it’s a “must do” to see the national park but we weren’t impressed. Our hotel had everything the park had to offer. Maybe it was the time of year that we went? (March) but We loved the area!!! Cafe milagro and cuba libre didn’t disappoint for
Ask the locals they are all nice! Ready to help! No Uber here but taxi or bus works well...it warm and humid...and bring sun screen from home it’s very expensive over there. Maybe a water bottle with filter the. You won’t have to buy it there..
Wonderful, must see place. Food was great, beautiful scenery & the local people are so friendly & helpful.
