This adults-only resort, overlooking a forested hillside sloping down to the sea, has long been one of the most scenic in the Manuel Antonio area. The lodgings, a mix of one-bedroom studio units and larger villas, are spread around the grounds (each with full kitchen or kitchenette), with hardwood walls; stone floors; and, in some, vaulted ceilings. All are large and open. In 2017, the hotel nearly doubled in size, adding a salt water infinity pool, a sushi bar, and ocean view suites. Breakfast is delivered to the villas, and the poolside restaurant is excellent.
