The pool area was not so inviting although it was clean

Location entrance to National Park

Nothing really. There is construction next door, but it never bothered us.

It was perfect for us. The location is wonderful - steps from the national park and the beach! We had three beds and lots of room. It was updated, modern, comfortable beds, plenty of hot water and a nice large bathroom. We were able to share the facilities at the ElFaro Sister hotel which was right up the hill from ours. They have two lovely pools and we ate breakfast every morning at the restaurant on the fifth floor, which has an incredible view of the ocean. The food was amazing plenty of choices and all delicious. We also had secure on-site parking for our rental car. The best part I think was the front desk, specifically, Stephen. He was so helpful, informative, and never got tired of answering our many questions. He also helped us quickly get tickets to the national park, which must be done online and which is pretty difficult if you try to do it yourself. All the desk clerks there were great, and so cheerful We were able to leave our bags and parked car after checkout so we could have a last beach day - they are very flexible and accommodating

Felt like we were on a building site! Lot of renovations going on. Dirty stairs, workmen and staff by the pool area, so didn’t feel comfortable using it. Quite a lot of noise too.

Very spacious accommodation, clean, comfortable beds and excellent a/c very appreciated. Kitchen was well equipped and useful. Breakfast nice, with choices, although would have like to have had chilled water available freely.

Some construction in and around the hotel.

Very close to the gate of Manuel Antonio National Park and great value for money especially as breakfast was included.

Noise could be heard from the other room.

Location and car parking

Amazing location, 3 minutes away from the park. Good breakfast with a view.

They were doing some work while we were there, didn't bother us too much and it looked like it was going to be great when it's finished.

Great location for the park and the beach. Our room was a good size, nice and cool. Both pools were lovely and the views are amazing.

Breakfast was great and the view awesome from the restaurant. Nice size room.

Hotel's swimming pool was under construction during our stay, yet guests were allowed to use the pool at their sister hotel. Additionally, the reception services and breakfast were also provided in the sister property.

The hotel's location is truly exceptional, offering convenient proximity to Manuel Antonio National Park and easy access to the beach. This prime positioning allowed us to fully enjoy the natural beauty and attractions of the area without any transportation hassles.

There was construction around unit but work stops at sundown.

We had a unit in sister hotel by the road which is large, older and has a kitchen and full fridge. Ac works fine. Pool is up the hill as is breakfast and it’s good. Monkeys swing by pool. Nice beach through laneway towards National park which is just down street. So it’s quiet end of day as it’s a dead end street.

The staff were very friendly but service was a bit slow, both for breakfast, at the front desk and getting a lift up to the restaurant so mostly we walked but it was a bit steep.

We had rooms at the front of the hotel which were enormous with balconies, a fridge and safe. However there was still a lot of building work going on around them although this did not really impact us as we were out during the day. The swimming pools were lovely (and warm) and you could see lots of wildlife from the hotel. The hotel location was excellent, on the doorstep of the National Park and a few hundred metres from the beach and lots of restaurants.

Unfortunately, when we arrived workmen were preparing the outside walls at the back of the property prior to painting making the back terrace and pool inaccessible. The next day workmen started excavating the front garden making the front terrace inaccessible too. We had no hot water the first day and there was work unfinished in the bedroom. However, the response from reception was efficient and swift and our issues with the room were resolved quickly. We were also happy with the compensation offered for the inconvenience from the outside work. We only had 1 free breakfast because of the hassle of getting to the restaurant at the top of the building next door. A simple room service breakfast would have made more sense.

A lovely large room with open plan well-equipped kitchen and living area. A generous bedroom and well proportioned bathroom. The main living areas all had ceiling fans which was a great feature. There are terraces front and back and a nice pool. We also had a free breakfast.

Not easy to find… the name of this hôtel is Faro…

Shower temperature fluctuated between very hot and very cold but overall would stay again.

Large, comfortable room. Plenty of wardrobe and storage space. Great location by the entrance to Manuel Antonio national park. Enjoyed the breakfast, especially the amazing view from the restaurant.

The workers around the apartment, they were too loud

Very comfortable bed, it was clean and spacious

The breakfast staff were not so friendly. They may have been understaffed but a smile dosnt take up time. They seemed to keep forgetting us so we had to either get our own coffee or keep asking. The shower was terrible, either cold or burning hot so impossible to shower properly. The pool was extremely poor but you could use the sister hotel pool.

The view at breakfast at breakfast was lovely. The rooms were very big with plenty storage space. The location was ideal. Steven, from reception was most helpful, attentive and super friendly, a lovely young man.

There are a few basics that would really help to enhance the rooms. A drying rack for clothes would have been really handy, having wet stuff from the pools and beach was a bit of an issue getting it dry. Matt's by the front door to wipe sand off your feet and a bin! The door to the adjacent room is very thin and a curtain (or similar) to help with sound proofing here would have been good - but overall it was a lovely place to stay.

Location was fab - you really are right in the thick of it with the park and a stones throw from the beach. The room we had was a lovely size. Breakfast was good with a stunning view from the restaurant. Nice use of different pool areas. They are currently renovating some areas which will look great when finished. Smart TV in the room which was nice to relax in the evenings.

Extremely big rooms. Nice staff and gorgeous view while having the breakfast. Near to the entrance of Manuel Antonio national park and the beach. Would recommend!

Glad I didn't stay in the sister hotel - it has a steep walk to climb, but they have golf carts to take guests up in.

The location - its steps from Manuel Antonio National Park. The beach is a shirt stroll down the hill - and plenty of restaurants shops and mini marts

We spent 3 nights here and really enjoyed our stay! Some of our favorite things were— how close we were from the entrance of Manuel Antonio Park, the view from breakfast and the short walk down to the beach! The rooms were huge and comfy (we had fabulous sleep here!). The walls are thin and you can hear the people next door, but we only had neighbors one of the nights. We saw monkeys from our balcony and saw a sloth up at breakfast! We also really loved the restaurant right below! The hill up to breakfast is quite manageable and nothing to worry about! We enjoyed the breakfast, mostly the omelette and the burrito! Would recommend this place!

Dirt parking lot.

The breakfast was awesome and the view was wonderful!! The rooms were comfortable and you ate literally steps from the park entrance.

The facility was quite good but the staff was incredible. No where have we ever stayed at a hotel and restaurant that was so personally attentive and genuinely concerned for our comfort. The staff at El Faro dining was incomparable and could not have been better at investing themselves in our daily eating comfort. That goes as well for the hotel staff at The Inn on The Park. Always having a driver and golf cart available to take us to and from breakfast, the beach, dinner or whatever we wanted. Five stars this seasoned group of professionals.

The room has very little isolation that we could hear the people next to our room talking, as if they were in the same room. No hotel sign, but the staff sent us instructions on how to find their hotel and where to check-in a day before our reservation. Otherwise we would have lost.

Location, walking distance to Manuel Antonio park and the beach.

Steep stairs to get to the breakfast, but there's the option to ride in the golf cart.

Great view of the beach from pool, excellent location next to the national park.
