    Very nice accommodation, the restaurant attached has very nice personal working. And there is a nice soccer table which we have used for hours. The pool was great and the rooms are very nice and open with a great view of the sea.

    Very conveniently located near the beautiful beaches of Manuel Antonio as well as the National Park and the town. Exterior design was the best I have seen in Costa Rica, very cozy and a large swimming pool.
