to get started.

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!

Gregphouston, United States of America

The staff were incredibly helpful flexible and knowledgeable Golf cart system worked remarkably well.

David, United States of America

Many of staff remembered my name from day to day. We seemed to prefer activities that are less popular - long hike... and staff ensured we could go even when there were no other travelers interested. This is a wonderful property for those who like excellent dining, nature, long walks on the beach and a minimalist approach to signage, marketing, signage , etc.

Norma, United States of America

Everything was perfect, the staff were extremely friendly and helped us practice our Spanish when we were ready and spoke fantastic English when we were tired.

We loved the room, the staff was out of this world, we were pampered, food was excellent Josh Smith in the restaurant was so accomadating and Tatiana in reception was soupbeat, just a wonderful visit

Tim, United States of America

Incredibly friendly staff, excellent food, beautiful beaches and rain forest views and lots of animals. We saw as many animals in the property as we saw during the parks and tours where we went off property to look for animals.

Location is amazing, with a private beach, and marvelous views.

Arenas del Mar is a spectacular quiet resort hugging the cliff and beaches of Manuel Antonio. The staff are exceptional, food is excellent and the private beach is astonishing. If you want a place to chill and relax - this is the place for you!

Sue, Canada

Excellent staff! Very friendly, attentive and helpful with any request (from welcome center (Tatiana), shuttle drivers, reception area and waiter staff!). Close walking proximity to both private and public beach a plus! Resort upgraded our room to full ocean view with jacuzzi on balcony! On location restaurant food was excellent with extremely attentive and friendly service. One waiter in particular, Luis, was extremely attentive with great suggestions. Shuttle service within resort very prompt upon request with friendly drivers who pointed out nature (plants and animals) within the resort such as a view of sloth! Had the opportunity to meet one of the owners of resort, who was extremely friendly and welcoming to the resort.

Js, United States of America
