“We stayed at the Shana for a week over spring break. Everything about it was wonderful. The staff, the beach, the pool, the breakfast. we saw more wildlife on the hotel proper than we did in Manuel Antonio National Park. The monkeys were daily entertainment. There is a sloth that hangs out in a tree by the adult pool and a set of scarlet macaws that will fly in every day. I can’t recommend this hotel enough.”
“Our recent stay at the Oasis Adult Retreat was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the sheer beauty of the property. Lush greenery enveloped the grounds, creating a truly peaceful and natural setting that felt wonderfully secluded. The treehouse views were a delightful touch, offering a unique perspective of the stunning surroundings with wildlife visits from monkeys to Scarlet Macaws.
What truly set this experience apart was the welcoming and affirming……
“Tuvimos un inconveniente la primera noche que llegamos y al día siguiente después de acercarnos a recepción la gerente nos hizo los cambios necesarios para que nuestra estancia las siguientes noches fueran magníficas

“Nice hotel, very friendly and helpful staff. Oscar and a receptionist whose name I didn’t get were particularly helpful. Easy walk to restaurants and grocery stores. Parking available and a fridge in the very spacious room. We would stay here again.”
“Very nice stay. Beautiful jungle and pool right in backyard. Front desk very helpful and nice. Room had a view of jungle terrace. A separator between 2 beds. Small fridge and microwave. Popcorn and milk in room. Breakfast great and very kind staff. Had breakfast to go ready at 6:30am for us as requested so could leave for excursion early morning. Convenient location off main road. ”
“Hotel is along the main street. While it isn’t flashy from the street view, once inside it feels like a magical jungle paradise and feels safe and secluded. There are plenty of walkable dining/shopping options. If you prefer to avoid driving from the resort to Manuel Antonio park, we were able to walk there in about 35min and avoid the hassle of driving/parking, which is a great perk! Hotel breakfast was included and had a variety of good options. We would definitely stay again!”
“Amazing property with attention to every detail. Loved having our own concierge to help with questions. Service to the beach was helpful and appreciated. Loved the restaurant by the pool and especially the pool. The sloth tour was incredible that is why we stayed at Tulemar. Loved all the monkeys as well.
Stay minimum 3 days to see wildlife and enjoy the beach. We were warned that our room was by the street and was noisy. But it was very noisy with motorcycles. But they stopped around 10:30.……
“Sehr netter Besitzer, schöne Anlage. Kann ich empfehlen. Das barrierefreie Vierbettzimmer hat keine Aussicht, alle anderen Zimmer haben einen tollen Ausblick. Super gute Lage.”
“El hotel estaba limpio y bien mantenido pero viejo. El cuarto no cerraba la puerta del balcón y nuestro baño olía muy mal. Comida deliciosa, muchas opciones de comida sin gluten y vegetariana. Los meseros pese que educados, no fueron tan buenos como los del resto de Costa Rica. La gente se recepción muy amables. ”
“L'emplacement de l'hôtel était agréable, mais notre chambre donnait directement sur la terrasse, ce qui manquait cruellement d'intimité. De plus, le mobilier était assez vieux. ”
“We loved everything about our stay at Playa Espadilla Hotel and Gardens. Most especially the staff who were so incredibly kind and helpful. We would most certainly stay here again”
“Very enjoyable hotel experience. The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful helping us get taxis or a book tours. Breakfast was nice and pizza at the hotel by the pool was very good. On the hotel grounds, we saw frogs, iguana, and many types of birds.”
“We were very impressed with this property and staff. When we arrived they welcomed us with a cold beverage and an aromatic towel. We were also personally escorted to our room. We definitely received VIP treatment. ”
“I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel for so many reasons. We live it so much that 4 days later we returned to this hotel again! I also will not even consider another place when returning back to Costa Rica. Kenneth at the front desk BOTH times was so pleasant and made the experience just perfect. What an employee just added to the awesome memorable time we had ! I hope whosever reads this review truly considers this establishment as it was one of the best on all my travels around the world! Thank……
