The place is fine, it’s clean and has a good location. The front desk staff is a little moody. We booked a 2 x queen beds room, but received 1 bed to share. The place was fully booked so could not change it to what I had reserved. We were also supposed to get a welcome drink, but it was never offered. Zero pressure in the sink, so have to brush your teeth and wash you hands/face in the shower. The cleaning staff was super nice and the room very clean. Kitchen staff was also nice, but moody. Direct access to the beach and free parking is also a great plus. Not sure if I would stay again, but for the price it’s pretty fair.

Both Expedia and hotel management did not indicate we had a “jungle” view room. If we knew, we would have reconsidered. We asked for a room change, but it was not possible. Note that the front desk isn’t operational after the restaurant closes. While the pool is small, it’s clean and welcoming.

This is a unique property if you are looking for something different. Each room is a separate "igloo" so it is very quiet. The grounds are very pretty and quaint. The lobby/restaurant are one space which create a very homy atmosphere. The food was excellent and the bartender was fantastic. The only thing missing in the room was a microwave but the space is limited. There is a mini fridge which is nice. The walk down to the beach is flat and easy. Manual Antonio is very hilly so it is nice to be able to walk so easily to the beach. I would recommend this place!

Loved that the pool was open 24/7 and there many beds and chairs. Food at breakfast was great and definitely walkable to Manual Antonio National Park and the beaches.

I booked Igloo Beach Lodge with high expectations, but my experience was extremely disappointing and unsafe. Our room had no hot water, and despite trying for over an hour, it never worked. We attempted to call multiple numbers, but no one answered. The security guard informed us that no staff would be available until 9:30 AM, leaving us with no way to reach anyone in case of an emergency. We had to go to another hotel just to shower. Expedia also attempted to help, but the property has been unresponsive to Expedia’s multiple calls and emails. I did not receive any reply from the hotel until the following day around 10:45 AM. On top of that, the walls are extremely thin — you can hear everything from surrounding rooms and outside, which made it difficult to sleep and enjoy any peace and quiet. Hot water is a basic necessity, and having no staff or way to contact anyone overnight is extremely unsafe. While the property later apologized, this does not change the fact that guests were left without essential services, emergency support, or proper communication. I cannot recommend staying here, especially for travelers who value safety, reliability, and rest.

We loved this place! Stayed on a family vacation with me and my 13 year-old, and it was great - appropriate for couples, families, etc. The pool was great, the location on the beach was awesome. The igloos were so cool - cozy, but enough room to move around and hang out. Breakfast at the hotel was delish. We would highly recommend to anyone going to Manuel Antonio!!

The staff was wonderful. Expedia placed in a room ( most likely AI ) we did not reserve and they fixed it immediately. The included breakfast had many options and the location was perfect for us to try many things in the area and surrounding areas.

One of the best stays we've had! This property was truly exceptional—unique, cozy, and impeccably clean. It's just a 5-minute walk to the beach and a short 5-minute drive to the national park. The on-site pool is perfect for relaxing, and the property even has its own charming restaurant with a full menu, great drinks, and friendly staff. Unlike typical hotels, this place offers a peaceful, uncrowded atmosphere that's perfect for unwinding. There’s also ample parking and a security guard on-site, which made us feel even more comfortable. Highly recommend!

Excellent location, very short walk to the beach! The food is a little expensive at the hotel bar but breakfast is included and the service is excellent Would stay here again.

We had an amazing time at the Igloo Beach Hotel. The staff is extremely friendly and everybody was very helpful, especially Emily. The food in the restaurant is delicious. There is a beautiful pool right in the center of the hotel. It is surrounded by the jungle and we saw beautiful birds and monkeys throughout the day. The property and rooms are kept clean and tidy. It’s only about a five minute walk to a local beach. It is about a 15 minute walk to the town of Manuel Antonio, where you can shop and visit restaurants. There is a bus station, literally right in front of it so you can travel further easily if you’d like. They made going out on excursions very easy and helped facilitate all of our tours and transportation. We would absolutely recommend this hotel. 10/10
