"From the moment we arrived the staff greeted us with warm smiles and salutations, and throughout our stay it remained the same. Alan and his wife (the chef), Ariel, Alan’s brother and Andre and Patricia ( another chef) provided us with a rich history of the area and delicious meals. We slept like babies each night in the spacious lodging provided for us. The mountaintop views are breathtaking and taking a dip in the private waterfall was so refreshing! We totally enjoyed our stay!"

Top Playa Matapalo Hotel Reviews

La Mariposa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The view alone was worth the stay—waking up each morning to such beautiful scenery was unforgettable. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff was friendly and attentive throughout my visit. Whether enjoying coffee at sunrise or relaxing in the evening, the view created the perfect atmosphere. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with stunning views."

ECOTICA Boutique Hotel & Spa.

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great. Rooms cleaned every day. Near plenty of food and attractions. Manuel Antonio National Park, the Marina with plenty of excursions. Good food on property as well. Free breakfast definitely worth it. My guy Moises was a pleasure to meet at the Hotel as well. Overall staff was amazing, but he deserves a special shout out. Makes greet drinks and super good guy"

Hotel Costa Verde

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Costa Verde. It is a great family hotel and offers lots of nice features, very helpful staff in fact we reached the hotel at noon when the check-in was 3pm and still they accomodated us and gave us a room. We had an ocean facing room. The room was spacious with two beds, air conditioning, room was clean, comfortable, with a closet and a safe. My girls wanted to go parasailing the same day and we called the front desk and they immediately arranged it for us. Did not have to do any booking on a viator or getmyguide. They dropped us to the site and we could do parasailing. We did a guided tour to Manuel Antonio National Park, which was extremely worthwhile. We saw a lot of wild life and it was totally worth it. The staff helped us with our luggage both on arrival and when we departed, which we really appreciated. The hotel made us feel appreciated. My family loved the hotel and the room and the views. We would love to come back again. Thank you Costa Verde team!"

Parador Nature Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience! Our stay at Parador Nature Resort & Spa was absolutely incredible. From the moment we checked in until the day we left, everything was seamless and welcoming. One of the highlights of our stay was the amazing wildlife. We encountered so many animals throughout the property and were able to observe them up close. The white-faced monkeys were especially memorable—one adventurous monkey even managed to break into our room! It definitely gave us a story we’ll be talking about for years and made our Costa Rica experience even more unforgettable. The food and drinks were outstanding, and the restaurants offered breathtaking views that made every meal memorable. The resort is also conveniently located near beautiful beaches, and the complimentary shuttle service made getting there easy and stress-free. Parador combines exceptional service, stunning scenery, incredible wildlife, and a true Costa Rican experience. We loved every moment of our stay and will definitely be back!"
