Top San Carlos Hotel Reviews

Apartotel & Suites Villas del Rio

10/10 Excellent

"Si no tienes carro es muy incómodo, no cuenta con restaurante para comer algo en las tardes o dinner hay q ordenar para q se lo lleven a uno o salir Della propiedad y si ordenas por seguridad hay q ir hasta la entrada a recoger tu orden. El desayuno bueno, tienen muchas cosas y los meseros muy atentos y educados si necesitas algo corren inmediatamente a buscarlo. Muy cómodo "

Shana by the Beach Manuel Antonio

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, very friendly and helpful staff. Impressed by the hot breakfast, great variety. The breakfast restaurant has a great view of the ocean and rainforest by the beach. Very cozily decked up for the holidays! The guest service staff were very helpful. They helped us with day tours booking for various activities. Comfortable and luxurious stay. I highly recommend this place. "

Mountain Top Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, newly renovated bathroom, has air conditioner. It is at top of mountain so the view from room and dining area is great! Breakfast has fresh fruit and traditional dishes. Very friendly staff. We saw squirrel monkeys and capuchin monkeys during the guided walk. Parking space is limited but we never had a problem finding a place to park. Highly recommend!"

La Mariposa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed in the area several times before, further down the road by Playa Biesanz, and remembered passing La Mariposa on our way to town, so this trip decided to give it a try. It’s conveniently located near shops and restaurants but is still quiet enough to have plenty of wildlife on the property. We saw not one but TWO sloths on the property, and both Capuchin and Squirrel Monkeys, not to mention the adorable Agouti that played near our patio. Then there are the birds…. So many! The room was a little weird with the bathroom sink quite a distance away in the living room, but this gave room for a bidet in the bathroom and for that I say THANK YOU! Also we almost died slipping on the bathroom floor but they provided a second towel and that issue was resolved. The bed, and the red lights by the bed were really nice. We had a lot of privacy off our patio so we slept with the curtains open and enjoyed the 5AM wake up calls of the Macaws and spent a lot of time enjoying the view. Our room was down a flight of stairs, and we had a few tent making bats surprise us at night. This is not a complaint….we loved it! The pools are all amazing with incredible sunset views and comfy chairs. We enjoyed the drinks the staff made for us and watched a sunset from the swim up bar one night. We had dinner twice at the hotel. Both times the food and the service were premium. The octopus appetizer is excellent! During dinner we had a 2-Toed Sloth make its way by even. "

Parador Nature Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had an incredible time at Parador Nature Resort and Spa. The property is beautiful and surrounded by wildlife — we saw monkeys, sloths, iguanas, and so much nature right on the grounds. The pool was fantastic, and the hot tub area was extra hot (which we loved after long days exploring). The staff were absolutely amazing — friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We met so many interesting people from all over the world, which made the experience even more special. Everything is close and easy to access, and the free golf cart shuttle service into town and to Manuel Antonio Park was a huge bonus and very convenient. Drinks were good (a bit pricey, but expected for a resort), and breakfast was wonderful — do not skip the omelet, it’s excellent. Overall, a great experience from start to finish. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!"
