After going up the steep main road we turned off and headed down a steep road that headed to our next hotel, Shana by the Beach home - Shana By The Beach, Manuel Antonio. Immediately arriving at the hotel, we were greeted by great staff at the desk and knew we had chosen a great place to end our trip at. The parking was difficult, but our room was spacious and clean once we got into it. My family ended up eating at the restaurant at the hotel that night because we didn't want to navigate the roads in this area once again after dark. We ended up having sushi there that night that was absolutely delicious and very affordable. Over the next couple of days, we ate breakfast at the hotel's great breakfast buffet and dinner one other time. Our primary breakfast server was Javier, and he was very helpful and friendly with any requests we had. In addition to eating dinner at the hotel we had drinks and pizza by the pool both which were also fantastic. Whether you are sitting by the pool or on the balcony of your room you will see white faced monkeys all over this property. This hotel is difficult to get to and is down a steep road from major restaurants but is a phenomenal choice for a hotel in this area.…

Wonderful stay. Andrea at the bar was truly amazing. Her attention and service was perfect. She also served us dinner both nights after our relaxing pool time. She works so hard! In a day and age when it is rare to find good service, she was a pleasure. The grounds are gorgeous. There is a 10 minute walk to the beach. The beach had calm waves, umbrellas, drinks and food you can order. Be sure to LOCK your room sliding door as there are resident, adorable monkeys that love to get in and raid your coffee bar for sugar packets. They put on a show every evening. They climb the balconies in the bar areas, creating entertaining michief..Front desk was incredibly helpful. Kevin our shuttle driver was also amazing!!

Wonderful trip. Beautiful beaches and the hotel was solid and dreamy. At times the music was loud during happy hour but maybe it only bothered me because I’m old :). Overall, highly recommend and We were quite happy.
