It was great. Not many dining options but the options they have are great. Rooms are comfortable and spacious. Lots of animal sitting and around the property. Overall a great family friendly spot. The only thing is the resort shuts down early no night life unless you taxi into town. We didn’t suffer because we were a party of 25 and just had a great time entertaining ourselves.

This property is great. The rooms are comfortable, the staff is very nice and accommodating. Had a great time overall. One thing to consider if you are going in a large group like I did, we were 25, is that they don't have a restaurant(s) that can sit groups larger than 12. The Fragatta closes at 6 pm can only be enjoyed during the day from 11-6. Breakfast daily is amazing, very hearty and substantial and sets you up to enjoy the day. The shuttle service is only available during the day so go off to a restaurant is not easy unless you have a car or take a taxi. Walking is not suggested as the resort is steep and there are no sidewalks. The wild life is fun and everywhere especially early in the morning and at sunset.

Pretty location, pretty bad service

We'd stayed at The Botanika, Manoa Arenal, Bosque Del Mar and Parador on our stip and the Parador was easily the worst hotel we stayed at. The staff tried to be friendly, but the service was truely poor. From a less the welcoming checkin, to food allergy issues that were managed poorly, to difficulty getting responses to the staff on questions this stay was disspointing. The property itself was nice, and has some great views. Our room was unusual and did not have a traditional bathroom, there was no door and the tub was viewable from the primary sitting/sleeping area. In what was a great trip overall, the biggest thing I would change is choosing another hotel in the Manuel Antonio area.

Great family resort full of things to do onsite.

Amazing visit to the Parador resort. Large rooms made it comfortable for our whole family to share a room. Daily house keeping, and breakfast included was a huge plus. There are many pools to choose from and all the restaurants and bars were great. The staff were amazing. The wildlife at the resort is a great plus!
