We stayed at Alborada Boutique Stay in Uvita for our honeymoon, and it was absolutely perfect. The property is truly unique; about seven private rooms, each designed like its own modern “igloo,” offering total privacy and a cozy, romantic feel. The pool in the center ties everything together beautifully, surrounded by lush greenery and peaceful vibes. Miguel, the manager, was incredibly welcoming and made sure every detail was perfect for our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience — stylish, tranquil, and unforgettable. Highly recommended for couples looking for something special!

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!

We had a fantastic stay at the Riverside Villas. The location is excellent and we even had the chance of spotting several animals from our balcony, especially in the morning, such as squirrel monkeys, macaws, agoutis, hummingbirds and iguanas. Our apartment was immaculately clean and very comfortable. Furthermore, our hosts Charlie and Carlos were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely choose this accommodation again when being in Manuel Antonio.

The room was spacious, beautifully designed and super clean. We really liked the restaurant, both the food and the staff - Helmer and Mario were super nice! We booked the hotel last minute because our first choice turned out to be terrible. We didn't regret it, loved the place!

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 ;)
