Manuel Antonio is undeniably Costa Rica's crown jewel of beach destinations. Its palm-fringed beaches are nothing short of breathtaking, framed by verdant forested hills that seem to roll endlessly into the horizon. The area is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts, as it's not uncommon to spot monkeys, sloths, and colorful parrots right at the edge of the beach!
Manuel Antonio offers an abundance of exciting and unforgettable activities. A visit to Manuel Antonio National Park is a must-do, where the park's modest size belies its incredible wildlife diversity. Guided tours within the park are a wildlife photographer's dream come true! For a romantic interlude, indulge in a catamaran cruise along the lush Central Pacific coastline. These leisurely journeys offer you the chance to unwind with a refreshing drink and savor the serene pace of life. Adventurers will find their paradise in Manuel Antonio, which boasts more adventure activities than any other region in Costa Rica. Embrace the thrill of high-flying canopy ziplines, navigate the exhilarating whitewater rapids of tropical rivers, embark on canyoneering adventures down lush rainforest waterfalls, or catch some waves while surfing in the warm embrace of the Pacific waters.
However, if relaxation is your goal, you need not venture far from the resort to enjoy a truly soothing experience. Situated on an 11-acre expanse of lush rainforest teeming with wildlife and extending to the beach, the hotel's natural surroundings offer endless possibilities. The beach that lies below and in front of the resort is an idyllic paradise. Roaming the property in search of exotic birds, monkeys, and sloths can be a delightful pastime. Of course, the beach beckons with opportunities for swimming, boogie boarding, and blissful relaxation. For those seeking inner harmony, the resort offers complimentary yoga classes to nourish your body and soul.
Arenas del Mar's exclusive Las Brisas Wellness Center provides an array of health and beauty treatments and therapies. Whether you seek a rejuvenating facial, a soothing massage, or a custom-tailored treatment, our skilled therapists are at your service. Reservations for spa services are recommended, and we kindly suggest making them at least a day in advance.
The dining experience at the resort's restaurants is nothing short of delightful. We take pride in offering health-conscious dishes crafted from local ingredients whenever possible.
