What a fantastic hotel! Since we arrived to the hotel everything was amazing. The staff was nice, the Check In process was quick, we got a welcome drink and they took us to our room which was ready before the Check In time. The room was really big and had a private hot tub, and the shower is huge. We had some kind of living room, that was really nice to hang out and watch a movie before going to bed while still hearing to monkeys from outside! lovely experience. The view from our room was breathtaking and it was fun to wake up into it. The staff was beyond amazing and helped us with all we need. You can really trust the guards at the parking lot - they was super nice and let us know that we left one of our car windows open. A minor thing that we found really helpful is the laundry service! Free, fast and made our life much easier. The pool area and the private beach is fantastic - clean, comfortable and has a lot of space to rest.

Our room was situated where we looked down about 1 1/2miles of beach (est) with the roar of the waves, too soothe you too sleep...….and then sitting on deck in morning, getting visits from the monkeys, macaws, and an occasional sloth.

Everything about this hotel is perfect. The location, the staff, the food, the rooms! My only thing (and it’s so small that it doesn’t even matter) is that it can be difficult to sleep in the room if your someone whose sensitive to light because the tv and the AC machine have little lights on them that light up the whole room-Nothing a good eye mask can’t fix! The room itself is absolutely beautiful. This place really goes above and beyond. When you first arrive you are greeted with the most delicious beverage that you’ve ever tasted. The staff is really what makes this place extra special. They know all the guests by name and are all extremely genuine people. The location is amazing as well. It’s so nice to have access to the private beach and be able to walk to playa espadilla. If you stay here you have to go out to dinner at La Luna-we had an amazing experience there.

Amazing staff members especially Laura the Massuse. You must ask for her if you go to the spa. Everyone was very welcoming and polite from the house keeping attendants to the managers. Location and safety factor for us was huge. Beautiful property.

This place was just amazing. The service was astounding. Best place we have ever stayed. The views were incredible, the food was delicious, and animals were plentiful, and even though they were at full capacity, we felt lome it was us and maybe a handful of other guests. We never felt as if we were at a "hotel". While we were there, we were thinking they were maybe 1/4 full, but no. We found out they were completely booked our whole stay. I loved the golf carts. You could call and have them take you anywhere, and they were there waiting before you got out to the pathway! The staff were so extremely friendly. I could not say enough. This was eveything my husband and I wanted.

Love that you have the ability to walk to two separate beaches and one is pretty much secluded and our room was high enough for views. The wonderful staff helped me find and get pictures of the sloth that was on their property.

Location & Quality: Arenas del Mar (AdM) is in a league of its own in Manuel Antonio. While some properties may equal AdM in terms of overall quality, no other property comes close the AdM in terms of both quality and location. AdM is the only property with direct access to both a secluded (almost private) beach and the main beach (Espadilla). It’s buildings are overlooking the beaches—many of them high up. Accommodation: Rooms are top-end and well maintained. Spending the money for one of their luxury suites is well worth the money—great beach views and a jacuzzi on the porch. Excellent service and complementary snacks. Things to do: The location near Manuel Antonio offers many things to do. But also AdM offers a number of complementary activities to participate in, in addition to offering a full menu of guided tours for a fee.

Due to a booking conflict we received an upgrade to an Ocean Breeze Suite for the last 2 nights here! But, original Garden Room very near restaurant on beach was great. All of the staff is very personable, remember your names and they sincerely want you to enjoy your stay!
