There’s zero noise barrier for the rooms you hear every single thing from neighbours and the hall. the doors slam aggressively. The furniture is heavy wood and scrapes the floor extremely loud. The first night we didn’t sleep there was drunk people in halls and 2 rooms one above and one next door. I didn’t get a good night sleep the entire time. One bed was good one hard as a board. The staff is lovely. The amenities wonderful. View great.

⭐️An Unforgettable Stay Surrounded by Nature, Beauty, and Exceptional Service⭐️ Parador Nature Resort exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, every single employee we encountered was genuinely kind, attentive, and went out of their way to provide extraordinary service. The warmth and professionalism of the staff made us feel cared for at every step. The setting itself is absolutely breathtaking. The sunsets here are some of the most beautiful we’ve ever seen—golden, expansive, and perfectly framed by the surrounding jungle and ocean views. The resort truly lives up to its name, offering immersive nature experiences that feel both magical and serene. One of the most unforgettable highlights was the wildlife. We had close-up, personal encounters with monkeys that literally climbed onto our balcony—an experience you’ll never forget and one that perfectly captures how connected this resort is to its natural surroundings. The monkeys are harmless and fascinating to watch… just don’t leave your glass door open 😉. Parador strikes the perfect balance between luxury and nature. You feel completely relaxed, surrounded by beauty, yet supported by an incredibly thoughtful and attentive team who clearly take pride in what they do. This is not just a place to stay—it’s an experience. We left feeling restored, inspired, and already talking about when we can return. Highly, highly recommend.

We absolutely loved our time at Parador! We dined at all three restaurants, and the food was delicious across the board. Drinks at the upper restaurant near the suites were excellent, and the service there was impeccable. There were countless spots with breathtaking views throughout the property. We walked the Monkey Trail and saw plenty of white-faced monkeys, and even spotted some right on the hotel grounds, which was such a fun up-close experience. We also saw macaws flying by while relaxing at the pool. On a rainy day, we headed to the game room and played ping-pong, which was a great touch. We really appreciated the covered walkways throughout the property, making it easy to get around even in the rain. Our stay couldn’t have been better—this has been our favorite place to stay in Costa Rica.

This is an incredible resort situated on a peninsula with a lot of wildlife, from monkeys to sloths to birds such as scarlet macaws and cara caras. The staff is very, very friendly and helpful! The restaurants serve delicious foods and the Fracata has gorgeous views over the Pacific. Everything was impeccably clean and there were staff members constantly taking care of the premises. They cleaned the room twice a day, always replenishing the fresh towels (large!) and bottles of water. We received a room upgrade (unbelievable room!), checked in 3 hours early and got an extension of 3 hours for check-out, which was fantastic since we went on a tour on the last morning. Our stay was unforgettable and I hope we can return to this paradise!

We had an incredible time at Parador Nature Resort and Spa. The property is beautiful and surrounded by wildlife — we saw monkeys, sloths, iguanas, and so much nature right on the grounds. The pool was fantastic, and the hot tub area was extra hot (which we loved after long days exploring). The staff were absolutely amazing — friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We met so many interesting people from all over the world, which made the experience even more special. Everything is close and easy to access, and the free golf cart shuttle service into town and to Manuel Antonio Park was a huge bonus and very convenient. Drinks were good (a bit pricey, but expected for a resort), and breakfast was wonderful — do not skip the omelet, it’s excellent. Overall, a great experience from start to finish. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
