“This is a hostel?”

Reviewed August 16, 2012

I volunteered with a friend in San Jose, Costa Rica at an orphanage. One weekend we wanted to get away, and a travel guide told us to go to Manuel Antonio and that the best place to stay on a budget was backpackers. Once we finally found it off of the bus (we had to ask some people because we... More

“Manuel Antonio”

Reviewed August 5, 2012

This place was cheap, and pretty clean for a hostel. They sold beer and played movies on a large projector. The people were nice, and the place seemed safe. good place to crash if you want to surf Manuel Antonio, or peep the park. I would go back...

Thank you very much to our recent friend from New Jersey! Pointing out some of our facilities as: the different movie played every night in the projector, our very friendly staff, the safety in our property and the proximity to the beatiful national park is very much appreciated. We certainly hope to have you as our guest one more time.... More

“This could be a great place to stay”

Reviewed April 5, 2012

Maybe we were just unlucky, because it doesn't seem like a bad place to stay at seeing as it's very central and closely located to the national park. The pool is great and the rooms aren't bad, even if a bit manky for the price. Some of the staff were extremely unfriendly and disinterested. Great plus was the open air... More

Reviewed March 6, 2012 via mobile

NPBP is located very close to the entrance of the park and the beach is within walking distance. The hostel was nice overall, but had some major, MAJOR, shortcomings. The room was totally empty, besides the bed. The bed was a total disaster. The matras was as thin as paper and very uncomfortable, as were the pillows. The bed itself... More

“Clean rooms, great facilities, noisy crowd”

Reviewed February 13, 2012

National Park Back Packers is a great stay if you're travelling on a budget in Manuel Antonio. The dormrooms are ok, but unfortunately all under one open roof with all the other rooms, so in fact you're sleeping with more than 50 people under 1 roof, without any noise-reduction except for thin walls per 8 beds. So if the family... More
