Amazing setting with plenty of wildlife all around. Rooms were large and ours had a scenic view of the sea.
United KingdomThe hotel complex is beautiful with great views if you pay for it. I've booked one of the villas and when I arrived a dream come true.
GermanyLuxury private accommodation in rainforest/beach location. Well looked after. perfect for couples. Friendly and helpful staff. Recommend private villa with pool.
United KingdomThe pool areas and bar are really perfect, very comfortable sun loungers, great views and great waiting staff. Happy hour is great. The food in the restaurant was varied and good, and the sushi was very nice.
United KingdomThe staff are so friendly and accommodating of all your needs. The breakfast that's included is fantastic (we tried every single option). The hotel is AMAZINGLY beautiful and right in the middle of nature - you can see sloths, macaws, monkeys..etc right outside your door. The facilities are all really awesome as well. The bed in our room was the most comfortable bed ever!!! It's the best hotel I've ever stayed in and will return the moment I have a chance to do so again. Thank you SOOOO much Makanda and staff for an unforgettable, special and magical stay!
South AfricaNice and very stylish hotel. Excellent breakfast and excellent restaurant! Anyone staying there should experience dinner there. Not cheap but worth it. Don't know why people complain about a dinner price of 150usd for 2 people including wine when they are willing to pay between 500 and 1000usd for the room... . Everything is pretty well done. Majority of staff is very friendly and engaged.
GermanyAmazing surroundings, lots of animals, great staff, very good restaurant and great services !
Switzerlandthe location and the room was beautiful. The views from the room and pool area were stunning! The small wild beach was such a bonus!
United KingdomMakanda is a spectacular place - no expense has been spared and the eye for detail is remarkable. The rooms are luxurious and stunningly designed. The pool areas are second to none with breathtaking views and the private beach is a sanctuary away from the business of Manuel Antonio. We received exceptional service on arrival and were thrilled to be upgraded whilst on our honeymoon. We loved how much wildlife there is here - particularly the monkeys - as well as enjoying sunsets from the pool.
United KingdomBest hotel room we've ever stayed in. The view was fantastic, bed was really comfortable and the bathroom was huge! Staff are very friendly especially the guys on the golf carts.
