Great friendly and helpful staff. Amazing views and local wildlife and flowers. Great location, walk to restaurants, shops and Manuel Antonio National Park. Steep hill to the reception and rooms is a work out but no problem if taken steadily and reception provides golf cart rides as needed. Restaurant food very good too.
