Find your place to stay
Los Altos Resort gives a Manuel Antonio stay space to unfold in condo-style residences with kitchens and separate bedrooms. Preserve trails, an infinity pool, ocean-view jacuzzis and Orquidea Spa make time on site appealing. A scheduled shuttle serves the beach below. Townhouses and villas have an October 1–31, 2026 closure; confirm current operations and your accommodation for the intended dates.
At Los Altos Resort, the Manuel Antonio hillside opens into a stay with more space: separate bedrooms, living rooms and kitchens, surrounded by tropical forest. Contemporary Balinese-inspired styling gives the residences their character, while the preserve below invites you beyond the balcony. Come for the combination of a condo-style base and time among the trees.
Well-marked trails explore the forest preserve, where toucans, monkeys and sloths are regular visitors. The beach at its base is framed by jungle-covered hills and rock formations. A scheduled shuttle runs between the resort and this beach throughout the day. The main beach area is a short drive away, while cafes, restaurants and spas near the resort are within walking distance.
The infinity pool follows the hillside, with a lounge area and a drink-and-snack bar for an unhurried afternoon. Just below, two heated jacuzzis look toward the ocean. You can return from the preserve for a swim or give the changing outlook a little more time before dinner; the hotel’s leisure spaces belong to the landscape as much as the day’s excursions do.
Dining and shared spaces help a condo-style stay feel like a resort holiday. A restaurant and bar give you an alternative to cooking in your residence, while the fitness center, yoga platform and gaming room provide different ways to spend time together or keep your own routine. Air conditioning, ceiling fans and cable television bring familiar comforts to the residences. WiFi is available in select public areas and rooms, so confirm the connection in your chosen accommodation if it is important to the trip.
Orquidea Spa, near the infinity pool, pairs rainforest and ocean outlooks with treatments, therapies and facials. Couples sessions provide another way to enjoy time together within the resort. It is an appealing counterpoint to a day on the forest trails, particularly when you want the hotel itself to hold a generous part of the vacation.
The penthouse is a distinctive choice for a larger party, spanning three levels and 4,200 square feet, with up to four bedrooms for eight guests. Other residences have one-, two- or three-bedroom configurations. The lower Rainforest Suites pair garden and forest views with partial ocean vistas, while higher Treetop and Panoramic options bring more of the coastline into view. Size and outlook are both worth weighing: a spacious shared living room, separate bedrooms and a fully equipped kitchen can change how families and friends enjoy their downtime.
Beyond the preserve, Manuel Antonio offers more ways to see the forest and coast. Guided hikes in Manuel Antonio National Park and safari cruises through the Damas Island Estuary invite wildlife exploration; surfing lessons, parasailing and offshore sportfishing keep the Pacific central. Ziplining and river rafting add another level of activity. Shuttles to Manuel Antonio are also available; confirm arrangements for the outing you have in mind.
Townhouses and villas are closed from October 1 to October 31, 2026.

This resort was STUNNING. They were so accommodating and friendly. service was top-notch and made us feel pampered. The pictures do not do it justice!

This was absolutely amazing!

I love Arenal Resort... but it was the least amongst the three stays. This was, by far, the best. I can't call it a room but the condo was amazing. The family appreciated the game room, the pool was just the right size, the restaurant was super delicious, and the staff were fantastic!
Bradley R.
We LOVED this hotel! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful from start to finish, including helping me book a last-minute trip to the national park with my family. The grounds are incredible, with a stunning pool/jacuzzi area with breathtaking views of the ocean. My wife and I walked a short ways along the on-site hiking trail - a bit steep but instantly dumps you into the forest wildlife. From our penthouse floor, we watched two gorgeous red macaws playfully fly right by our balcony (I got this on camera - priceless!). We also saw and heard plenty of Howler monkeys from our room, and from the on-site restaurant. The hotel room itself was massive and luxurious. Our two boys felt like princes with their very own rooms, restrooms, and balconies. One of our boys had his heart set on staying in one night and ordering room service (the true Prince experience) so we watched a movie and were not disappointed with the room service food - it was delicious!

We were moved from a private villa to a townhome a couple weeks prior to our trip but very suitable substitution. Staff was AMAZING and so accommodating!!!
Denise S.
Beautiful resort. Food was delicious. Really appreciated the breakfasts being complimentary. Loved the turn down service with tea and dessert.
David S.
This was our favourite hotel of the trip. The staff were exceptional, especially our butler, Jeferson. Everyone we encountered was friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. Our room was spectacular: peaceful, quiet, and with an incredible view. The food in the restaurant was excellent and they were extremely accommodating with my vegan diet. We would absolutely return to this hotel.
Gordon A.
We were very happy with the stay: rooms, staff, food, pools and grounds, but can't comment on the overall value, since the cost was lumped together with the hole tour package.

GORGEOUS! Hotel and staff were amazing
The condo was very spacious! View of the Pacific from the pool was beautiful and the sloth hanging in the tree by the pool was super cute too! On-site restaurant did a great job preparing our catch from a fishing trip. All the staff was very friendly and always ready to help.
Alison C.
The private beach is really rocky and not what was pictured.
Renae L.
The condo view was amazing and the amenities exceeded our expectations. The front desk staff was great and all the dinner recommendations were terrific!
Nidhi P.
Another great hotel. They gave us a ride to the beach so we didn't have to walk. They also arranged for a beautiful cake for my birthday. Very sweet!
Francis P.
Amazing room - much too large for 3 of us but wonderful experience. The rides to everywhere was great and the food was very good.

Viren K.
The staff were very good, friendly and helpful.
Andrew L.
The staff and facilities were first class.
Los Altos was our favorite hotel on the trip. The accommodations were beyond spacious. Wish there was a washer/dryer in the unit though. The restaurants, staff and pool area were fabulous. The beach was not what we expected as it was very rocky and difficult to swim. Wish it was a nicer beach!
Matthew D.
Another great facility with staff that exceeded expectations. Very friendly and welcoming, open to providing suggestions for local restaurants.
Laura T.
Wow! We were not expecting such huge accommodations. It was amazing. We also loved how friendly and helpful the staff was. The breakfast was HUGE and AMAZING! Great experience!
