Hotel Verde Mar offers a rustic, budget-friendly stay in Manuel Antonio, where the Pacific meets the rainforest. This coastal retreat provides a serene escape with a garden-surrounded pool and a restaurant serving local Costa Rican flavors. Guests can choose from various room types, some featuring kitchenettes, all designed for a relaxed experience amidst tropical greenery. It serves as an ideal base for exploring Manuel Antonio National Park and enjoying the region's natural beauty.
The Pacific and rainforest frame a stay at Hotel Verde Mar, a budget hotel with a rustic character in Manuel Antonio. Its coastal setting invites a vacation built around the things that brought you here: time by the ocean, a visit to the national park and a chance to slow down among tropical greenery. Explore the setting and travel possibilities in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica.
The pool sits within the gardens, offering another place to pause after exploring. Settle into a lounge, take a swim, and let a few hours pass without another appointment. The accommodation keeps that relaxed mood, with rustic styling and ocean or jungle outlooks connecting the rooms to the surrounding landscape. The sounds of nature are part of the calmer atmosphere around the gardens, a reason to let a little time pass without filling it with another plan.
A day in Manuel Antonio National Park brings the region’s jungle and beaches together in a single outing. Follow the trails, keep an eye out for wildlife, and leave time to enjoy the park’s coastline rather than treating the walk as a race from one sighting to the next. Back at Verde Mar, the gardens and lounges provide a gentle transition from exploring to simply being at the hotel.
The restaurant’s seafood, tropical fruits and traditional Costa Rican dishes add another connection to the coast. A cocktail and a meal can carry an evening without a long list of plans. The friendly team is available to help with the stay’s practical needs, while the rustic accommodation and natural surroundings keep the overall experience relaxed and approachable.
For travelers who value practical flexibility, the room category is worth a closer look. Standard Rooms and Suites include a kitchenette; Economy Rooms and Villas provide different arrangements. Air conditioning and mini refrigerators appear across these room choices, but the detailed amenities vary. Verde Mar’s strongest invitation is a simple coastal base with gardens and pool time, rather than an elaborate resort itinerary.

Loud hotel but close to the beach. Breakfast not included and staff late to open it.
Beds were hard; front desk changed mattress after first night. Loacted on the beach...great. Restaurant was a disappointment. Took them over 30 minutes to prepare breakfast...twice. We had to order from menu, not buffet
I thought the hotel itself was fine. I did not feel the desk staff was particularly friendly, but I may have gotten on their bad side. Their attitude seemed to be guilty before charged as I had to sign a blank credit card slip just to have use of the safe (which was a ridiculous piece of work--- like an old pirate's booty box with a padlock that wouldn't stop anyone from prying it open) a beach towel and room key. We never had any washcloths, only 2 bath towels each. I think she told me people took them all the time so they stopped providing them.. I may have understood wrong. All the times we left and returned I felt actually greeted or acknowledged twice probably. It was so different than our staffing experiences anywhere else.
The hotel's restaurant serves local flavors, including fresh seafood, tropical fruits, and traditional Costa Rican dishes, complemented by a selection of cocktails.
