Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Member of the Cayuga Collection

Amazing Service

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

Beautiful beachfront resort, friendly and attentive staff. Something for everyone. Be sure to have dinner at the beach front restaurant la playitas … a hidden gem.

Beautiful nature and good service

Amazing staff. Everyone was so kind, happy, and incredible. Beautiful resort with great access to the ocean and tons of wildlife thank you to everyone there for making our stay so wonderful!

Stunning beach, excellent food and drink, great staff. The property is mostly accessible by golf cart once you check in— I had planned to walk to Manuel Antonio some during the trip but that’s a bit of a project. Everything you need is right there though!

This hotel far exceeded my expectations, and my expectations were already high. The views from the room were outstanding and the service and hospitality was top-notch. The food was incredible as was the beach. I would highly recommend staying here and would happily come back again in the future.

Likely the BEST resort I have ever stayed at. Great service, beautiful grounds and perfect amenities.

The resort was beautiful, quiet and clean, and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. You will see monkeys and sloths. The staff will point them out to you as well. Most of the community does speak English and do take dollars without difficulty. The restaurants on the resort are pricey, we tried Agua Azul close by and it was delicious and reasonable, Emil’s Cafe was also great but also a little more pricey. Taking a taxi to the local restaurants in Manuel Antonio is about $10 each way, into the manual. Antonio Park is $12 each way. We initially use the resort transportation when we arrived to take us from the Quapos airport to the resort which was around $68. I asked the resort multiple times how much transportation would be via taxi and they avoided this question. On the way back, we decided to take a red taxi and it was only $25. The resort was helpful when asking how much to taxi would be to other places, although not to the airport. Adorable tourist shops in the area although very overpriced so do negotiate. We did multiple tours that we booked on our own. I would definitely recommend a guide for the manual Antonio Park. We did a volunteer for a day with Kids Saving the Rainforest and you will see more animals up close. Also loved the Night walk Rainmaker tour and horseback to beautiful waterfalls. Transportation to the Waterfall was $140 and tix $160 for two, but lovely. Bring any meds you might need pharmacy charged $80 for a $20 medication, ouch

It’s the perfect hotel for a romantic getaway

One of the most beautiful resorts I have ever seen. The staff is top notch. I cannot say enough about this resort. I will be back.

Hotel is fabulous, staff are amazing. They consistently went above and beyond to ensure our stay was wonderful. Magnificent views from every vantage point. Lots of wildlife on the grounds. Monkeys, sloughs, iguanas, etc. We did the night walk with Maria. She was great and pointed out so many amazing species of tree frogs, sloughs moving, birds,etc. Also booked the waterfall hike (spectacular) and whale watching (saw at least 8-10 whales in addition to leatherback sea turtle, dolphins playing, and many species of birds). Highly recommend!!

If i could give it more than 10 i would. The hotel is superb, location, service, rooms are immaculate with incredible attentionto detaols.

Muy linda propriedad con la misma fauna en sitio que en el parque Manuel Antonio. Personal muy amable, buenos tours dentro de la propiedad [tomen el tour nocturno]. Esperaba mas de los restaurantes, bueno, sin mas, pero overpriced a mi gusto.

Don’t miss the Saturday night seafood dinner on the beach!

this resort is one of the best resorts i've ever stayed. unbelievable natural beauty, rooms and views are incredible, the concierge service was impeccable and the staff was so friendly and fun. we loved every aspect of this resort and will recommend to everyone and will definitely come back!

Did not like feeling like I needed to tip all the time to golf cart drivers, maids, waiters, bar keeps and then tip was added on my bill at the end. Better if they turned down tips

Mixed feelings. Beautiful location and the rooms. Very good food BUT all the waiters were so unhappy serving people and it took forever to get the order so we switched completely to the room service that we did not have to interact with them. The spa was also a big disappointment. Appointment at 10:00 and at 9:55 the spa still locked up with the explanation that they open at 10:00! So in the second they open you hop on the table. No concept of welcome drink or relaxation before the treatment. Therefore the golf cart drivers were so happy, friendly and accommodating. Really great guys reading your mind. The room keeping was great and the room itself too. So it was a weird mixture. Considering that we paid $1,200 per night there should be no mixture of bad and great service. It should be all great. We would not return there although the location at the private beach was great.

Our second trip to Manuel Antonio, bot trips we stay at Arenas Del Mar. This place is amazing. Breathtaking view and friendly staff. You can’t go wrong booking here.
