We were at the end of our Panama/Costa Rica trip and had actually just decided to cut it short because I was starting to feel sick. But we had this last hike to try out and I was just hoping both that I would feel well enough and also that our car would be able to make it back on the very steep gravel road back from the parking spot (after almost getting stuck around Monteverde earlier on the trip). As we’ve been getting used to we were first to arrive so we had this awesome place completely to ourselves for a little while in the morning before other tourists started to drop in. It really felt like a fairytale. (Oh, and the car made it back okay!) #nature #costarica #centralamerica #waterfalls

"This little house is all we needed to relax and enjoy a more urban part of Costa Rican vacations. Directions to the street are clear with Google but the house is a bit harder to find, just opposite signs for houses 6 and 7. Comfortable seating, movie entertainment, washing laundry here is luxury compared to other places we stayed. You really need a car here (2WD is fine), there are lots of hills and it is hot so much better to drive than walk. Roads are narrow and shared (buses, trucks, bikers,...

Top Barú Hotel Reviews

Mountain Top Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Mountain Top Park Hotel was a great place for us to stay! We stayed for a week. The staff is SUPER nice and helpful and accommodating. They really spend the time to make you feel welcome and make your stay as easy as possible. The only downside of the hotel is the surrounding area there’s not a ton to do if you’re staying for a few days or more. But the grounds of the hotel is gorgeous and walking around in the mountain top park is so cool. We saw so much wildlife even from our balcony!! It was the coolest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Truly loved it and so thankful for the staff!! "

Shana by the Beach Manuel Antonio

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very friendly, great breakfast buffet with Javier, Edgar, Elieth, and Allan the cook. Great omelettes and fresh fruit. The happy hour was fun with Andre and Daniel. The rooms were spacious, and the pool and hot tub were fabulous. The walk to the beach could be treacherous for some people, all downhill then all uphill. The white faced monkeys like to steal sugar and food so be cautious!"

Parador Nature Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Amazingly beautiful place! We saw monkeys 20+ 2 times, on the monkey trail and later at the spa! We also saw sloth, macaws and other animals on the property! We played pickleball, got a couples massage, swam, went snorkeling, kayaking and jumped off tour boat’s high deck and used their slide. Much more to do next time!"

Gaia Hotel And Reserve - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"We just left the hotel and we loved it. All the staff were great but extra thank you to Deiver, our concierge. He made everything very easy from reservations to the National park, shopping, dinning and transportation. We were very sad to leave and hope to be back soon. "
