great stay

03/08/2022

fabulous boutique hotel....

02/24/2020

Room very old, refrigerator ancient, light switches

07/05/2019

Great hotel with SPECTACULAR views of the pacific coast. Very nice staff and the breakfast was great too! We would definitely like to come back when we visit again.

03/23/2019

I think having better pillows would do wonders. That was the only complaint. I loved the gardens, the pool, the incredibly friendly staff and beautiful setting.

01/23/2019

Very good location with exceptional ocean views- very friendly staff

08/29/2018

Hotel La Marisposa was a nice hotel. The best part of it was the view, overlooking the pacific ocean. The staff were friendly. I also love the location which is close to many restaurants and store. My only thing was, the hotel is a little dated. The rooms didn't have extra blanket. The blanket we used was a bit too thin, which got me sick the first night. Other than that. I loved the hotel, the view, and its amenities. It was in a quieter side, but that's okay. It's off season, and loved that we had the place all to ourselves. So it seems.

08/18/2018

Tile floors = loud. Person in room above was walking around all night, kept us up first night. Very tired the next day.

12/06/2017

Two nights in a row the air conditioner failed.
The chef went out of his way to accommodate my requests for gluten free meals.

08/03/2017

The hotel, the view and the staff were awesome ! The hotel was very quiet, breakfast was amazing and especially Ceibo, the bartender, made our trip that much better !

06/09/2017

Would come back to this hotel again. Nice staff. Good food. Good location. I lost my camera on one of the minivans to the beach and the driver was so kind to bring it back for me the next day.

05/10/2017

Awesome hotel, staff, food, bar, wildlife and views!!!! Would highly recommend! 5 stars!

04/20/2017

The view from this hotel truly is what everyone says, amazing. The rooms were comfortable with a nice balcony. We were able to walk to restaurants and the shuttle to and from the beach was on time. The pool was our favorite part.

04/08/2017

Beautiful hotel with a perfect location.

03/29/2017

Lovely, lovely property with magnificent views. Infinity pool was stunning. Restaurant staff was very friendly and fun. Front desk very helpful.

02/05/2017

in Monteverde area had little lighting at night to get to and from restaurant and had dangerous concrete pavement where one could trip.Loved the other selections and choice of rooms was great

01/27/2017

Beautiful place to stay! easy to see and get to the local fare. GREAT view from the room!

01/18/2017

The room was not part of the hotel. The last two nights the people next to us were very loud and you could see their light through the door. Room was not comfy felt like an outcast.

12/27/2016

The staff was outstanding at all levels from front desk to maids

07/21/2016

The view was stupendous, from the restaurant, pool and our room!!!!. Wished there had been a hot tub and coffeemaker in the room

06/20/2016

It was nice but Arenal was better. Manual Antonia seemed more commercial all around than Arenal

05/18/2016

The hotel was absolutely beautiful, clean and the staff was extremely helpful and accommodating.

05/17/2016

Gorgeous view of the coast from our room. Staff were very friendly

04/28/2016

Very nice room, but it had mosquitoes in it when we got there. I got a ton of bites and then asked the front desk if we could switch rooms to one without mosquitoes. They told us not to leave the doors open (which we didn't because the bugs were already there) and then came with Raid to kill the bugs.

04/20/2016

We were very disappointed to be given a dark and damp smelling 'garden view' room with a view of the car park!!! We complained and with your help were given a better room. Thank you.

04/04/2016

Received upgrade to Ocean view suite, staff was very profeesional. Post cards mailed from there have never arrived

03/29/2016

Very nice boutique hotel. Our room was wonderful.

03/27/2016

View and location are wonderful. Our room was very dated. Appreciated the big balcony and cleanliness, but the king size bed was hard as rock. The small bed for the kids was nice and comfy. Loved the pool. Bartenders weren't the friendliest, but the view makes up for it. All other staff was very welcoming. Breakfast buffet was decent.

03/03/2016

View great as advertised. Room though a disappointment. It was curious that the room, while large was almost devoid of furniture save for the beds. No bedside lights just a glaring fluorescent ceiling fixture. Bathroom was inferior. Perhaps we just got the one bad room but if this room was typical I could not recommend the hotel. However the view from the patio, the swimming pool, and the restaurant pretty much made up for some disappointment in the room itself. We were pleasantly surprised at how many decent restaurants were nearby and thus giving an option over eating at the hotel. Also the bus service to the beach was cheap and easy to navigate.

02/03/2016

Fabulous views from the room! Could watch the sun rise over the jungle each morning and the sun set over the ocean each evening from the room. We enjoyed Breakfast overlooking the ocean and the awesome infinity pool. Absolutely breathtaking!

01/22/2016

Oh My Gosh!! I would rate this above 10!! I am so glad we switched to Hotel La Mariposa! I LOVED OUR TIME THERE! The views are spectacular and the pool was absolutely fabulous. I so appreciate that they put two couples side by side in the front and the 3rd couple right about us. This place is a MUST for anyone wondering were to stay in Manuel Antonio! It is worth every penny. The breakfast was good, the ambiance was relaxing the the views are to die for! LOVED IT! Plus we got great videos of a sloth climbing the tree by the bar!

01/21/2016

Everything about the experience was a 10, but I would rate the staff even higher than 10 to indicate that their attentiveness, helpfulness, and friendliness made our stay at the Mariposa particularly memorable.

01/05/2016

This hotel had the most spectacular views from almost any area, with a beautiful infinity pool. the staff was polite but a bit stuffy.

08/25/2015

Best view from every angle oh the property, our stay was very enjoyable and the staff is very courteous, loved their Bar.

07/31/2015

LOVE LOVE LOVED this property. We were blown away, our balcony overlooked the ocean and the jungle sounds were all around us. Absolutely Splendid. I want to go back

06/23/2015

We have told everyone we know how great the staff and accommodations were - they exceeded our expectations every time.

04/06/2015

Heaven!
