We stayed at ballena rey hotel for 2 nights. It is the best hotel we have ever stayed at during our trip in Costa Rica. WiFi and parking are free, and this hotel also features a beatifull swimming pool with a waterfall. Gilberto is an amazing and lovely host. He is really helpful and funny. We needed to do our laundry and he arranged to do it without any problems. We are highly grateful for that. The apartment is brand new and has modern design and the matress is really comfortable... we slept very well. It is totally worth it! We highly recommend it if you want to stay at modern and clean place and be surrounded also by lovely people.

Fabulous property on a great location. Incredible price to performance, with new spacious rooms and excellent facilities. The owners are so friendly and helpful, can also arrange a variety of tours and surf lessons if needed. A special plus is the all day availability of coffee machine, some fruits and biscuits/snacks.

Our stay at this beautiful accommodation in Matapalo was simply fantastic! From the very first moment, we felt welcome, and the hosts were super friendly and helpful. The accommodation is just a short walk from the beach. The surrounding area and the village itself are lovely and perfect for relaxation – at the same time, we were able to spot some amazing wildlife, such as macaws and sloths. It is conveniently located between Manuel Antonio and Uvita, making it easy to explore both areas. The rooms are spacious, elegantly furnished, and of the highest quality. Everything was impeccably clean and well-maintained. The hosts provided excellent tips for excursions and activities in the area. You can truly feel that they run this place with passion and dedication! Breakfast is freshly prepared every morning based on a selection of options, accompanied by a small bowl of fruit and freshly brewed coffee. We can 100% recommend this accommodation! If you are looking for a relaxing, peaceful, and nature-inspired stay, this is the perfect place for you. We would definitely come back!

Great location, surrounded by the jungle. If you ask me, listening to the birds and the river is a great way to wake up! 10/10 for the staff and their recommendations to explore Manuel Antonio

We loved the fact we were right on the beaches doorstep! We were able to walk everywhere as its in an excellent location. We also had lovely surroundings and a great surprise visit from the monkeys and iguanas. We loved that we had a little kitchen to store our food etc it helped a lot, when we wanted to stay in and have drinks and snacks and not worry about the drinks getting warm. 😉 Excellent customer service and cleanliness.

Right on the beach but easy living so your tents not full of sand. Quiet, safe parking, little shop and 2 restaurants nearby, great breakfast, very friendly, helpful staff. Sloths and monkeys right outside our door. I walked a mile & a half down the beach and saw nobody.

We stayed in a two bedroom ocean view condo and it was spacious, modern and comfortable. The pool is a nice temperature and large, the food is very good, and the staff are friendly and professional. The breakfast was amazing. We loved the location, right on the beach. Everything you need is at the hotel

Everything was nice but old and a little worn, but the price was nice. It is right on the beach and that was very nice. Next time I will spend a little more and get a nicer room at this location. Staff was ok.

THE beach hotel in the Manuel Antonio area. Special sunbeams and umbrellas dedicated to the hotel guests only (and free). Truly enjoyed the beach life. Rooms and open-air restaurant with direct access to the beach. Lots of animals on the beach, hence no need to go to the national park ;)
