Located around 6.3 km from Rainforest Adventures Jaco, the hotel with free WiFi is also 26 km away from Bijagual Waterfall.

Hotel was a short stroll into the centre and we could see parrots (or Macaw’s) in the trees opposite as we were facing the road. Giselle and her team were exceptional and very kind. Only stayed one night but would happily have stayed another if we were spending more time in Jaco.

With river views, Riverside Villas is located in Manuel Antonio and has a restaurant, full-day security, bar, garden and year-round outdoor pool. The property features pool and garden views, and is 1.5 km from La Macha Beach. The bed and breakfast also provides free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. Our stay at Riverside in Manuel Antonio was more than perfect. My husband, our best friend, and I stayed in a charming bungalow within a beautiful family-run property surrounded by lush jungle. We traveled to several places in Costa Rica, but never before had we experienced a place so immersed in nature — we saw more animals and birds here than in any jungle or forest we’ve visited, including monkeys, iguanas, and countless bird species. Of course, Manuel Antonio National Park is stunning, but what makes Riverside truly special is how the wildlife is right at your doorstep. The property is spotless, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the hospitality from the family is exceptional. Their dogs are wonderful, the food is delicious, and the drinks menu has everything you could want.
