Location was great. Right next to the national park and near the beach and restaurants. Apartment size was good and nice to have a balcony.

“Great place next to Manuel Antonio National Park”
Extremely close to the beach and right outside the national park. Parking was included even after checkout which made super helpful. We even spotted an iguana and a deer in the parking lot.

“10 on 10. The best place to stay.”
The best place you can ask for. It has everything. The best location, great comfortable bed, quiet at night, 3min from the beach, restaurants right downstairs. The best.

“Strongly recommend: comfortable and in good location”
Gonzalo gave me the keys of an apartment just by the entrance of the Manuel Antonio park. It has a good restaurant just under and a little supermarket near. The entrance of the Park is just some steps away so do the beach. Very quiet place at night.

“Spacious apartment in a great location”
The Apartment was very spacious and a decent size balcony overlooking the street. There was a supermarket below and some basic fare food outlets nearby. Other more high brow dining experiences were within a 10 minute taxi ride. The location was 100m from the entrance to the Park and whilst we already had our entrance tickets booked, Gonzalo was able to organise a very good guide for us at short notice. He also ensured we had parking at the rear which is a must, as the crowds and traffic do get manic during the day. Also only a 5 minute walk to the large beach

“Perfect place to stay just outside Manuel Antonio National Park”
Beds were comfy, AC good, kitchen fine, Netflix available and location just outside the entrance to Manuel Antonio national park was perfect to beat the crowds! Very convenient secure parking right outside apartment. Manuel Antonio itself is quiet in the evening so don’t expect a party but if you’re here for the beaches and wildlife then you want to be up early anyway!

Amazing location, at the Manuel Antonio national park entrance! Good A/C, fairly clean and spacious with a balcony, free secure carpark. It's a 5 min walk to the beach and has quite a few options of restaurants nearby. The owner is really friendly.

“All in all great experience and Chalo was friendly and very helpful. Definitely recommend Restaurante Donde Alex next do”
Fantastic location literally 50m from MA park entrance. Mini market downstairs and the Soda/restaurant right next door is excellent & great value for money 👍

“Perfect location for Manuel Antonio visit”
You can't beat the location of this property plus the free parking right behind it. Manuel Antonio park is 2 min walk to the left and you can sit on the balcony and watch people go in and out. The apartment is functional and practical but not a cosy place. You have everything you need and I loved the balcony. This part of the Manuel Antonio accommodation stretch is very small so pretty quiet after the park visitors leave and not as touristy, as hotels are rather small. There is a good choice of restaurants close by.
