About
Set on the Pacific side of Costa Rica near Manuel Antonio, this hotel is positioned for travelers who want access to the Quepos–Manuel Antonio area while staying outside the busiest parts of the tourism corridor. The listed address places it west of Plaza Vista commercial center, about 1 km away, which gives guests a practical reference point for navigating the area. From here, visitors are within reach of Manuel Antonio National Park, Quepos town, and the coastal routes used for day trips, beach visits, and wildlife viewing. The property is well established in the local lodging market. Travelers looking at this listing should expect a hotel or accommodation style stay rather than a small guesthouse or private rental. The location is useful for guests who plan to split time between the beach, local restaurants, and excursions in the Central Pacific region. For practical planning, the hotel’s website and direct phone line are available for room inquiries, availability, and current service details.
