Great property. Would be much better if they had microwaves and coffee maker in room. Prices at the restaurant are way too expensive. Everything else is great, the location, wildlife, and beach is amazing.

The accommodations are basic, nice and clean..but you stay here for the fantastic beach and atmosphere directly in front of the seaside restaurant. Amazing vibe! Monkeys, toucans, and Macaws all over -fantastic mid range option if you’re a beach person. You have to request the beachfront rooms though or you will be on the other side of the road.

After a week of rain in Costa Rica, we finally arrived at Manuel Antonio Beach and the Karahe Beach Hotel and we loved it! We had a room near the beach & restaurant. The grounds were beautiful, room was convenient to the pool, beach & restaurant and the staff was very friendly and helpful!

We booked a room on the ocean side. The room itself was pretty awful and depressing. We had no hot water, Wi-Fi was spotty & inconsistent, our tiny TV did not work. The room is basically like a sad, white box with an uncomfortable chair stuck in the corner. The included breakfast buffet was horrible. Cold eggs, tasteless cheese, jelly from a pouch, no meat. None of us ate it. I'm rating it a 2 instead of a 1 because the beach area is beautiful and we had monkeys right beside our balcony. Also, the manager let us cancel two of our four nights which was nice.

We stayed on the beach side of the hotel. Property grounds were gorgeous and filled with wildlife. We skipped the national park entirely as we saw sloths, capuchin monkeys, squirrel monkeys, agoutis, scarlet mccaws, iguanas, and a ton of butterflies right at the hotel on a daily basis.. Restaurant was on the expensive side but very convenient and beach dining was a plus. The only downside is that you can hear a lot of noise from other rooms like doors slamming due to the marble floors and wood ceilings, but we got used to it. We will definitely be staying here again!

The staff have been amazing and kind. Very attentive to your needs. The beach is wonderful and sloths are right by the restaurant so our kids got to see them as well as monkeys. We stayed here last time we were in Costa Rica 10 yrs ago and it hasn't changed. Would recommend staying here.

The hotel is in a nice location, beach is very nice and restraurant is right on the beach. Staff were very friendly and serice minded. Hotel room were clean and the beds were great. Very small and in need of a table or two- nowhere to keep your clothes. Paid for beachfront but the hotel is too far away
