We were very pleasantly surprised by how wonderful this resort was. The grounds are an absolute paradise of tropical plants and wildlife - we say many birds, some small mammals and two types of monkeys right outside our room! During happy hour by the pool area, a group of 10 capuchin monkeys started flying through the trees, eating and playing. The next day we woke up to eight or nine Squirrel Monkeys running across the roof of our cabin and through the garden.The resort restaurant had reasonable prices, and truly delicious food (coming from someone who cooks regularly). The staff were the friendliest we encountered in Costa Rica, and were some of the best I've experienced during any international travel. They went out of their way to point out wildlife in the area and helped us with our Spanish when we asked. Easy bus/cab ride down the hill to the beach, but we did walk it once. Several other good restaurants in walking distance. I wish we could have stayed another week here! Don't waste money at any of the more expensive resorts in the area - this one is the BEST!

The Falls is quite simply - and beautifully - a jewel in the Quepos/Manuel Antonio area of Costa Rica. Don't let the humble curb appeal stop you, once you pass through the doors you will be welcomed as family by the ever-smiling, always at-your-service, beautiful people who will prepare you one of the best drinks you've ever had -- (get The Falls made with Stolichaya vodka & please tell them Iowa says "Pura Vida!") -- and serve you a delicious meal. We did not have the chance to stay in their rooms, but made this one of our "homes away from home" none-the-less.
The staff, drinks and food are reason enough to make The Falls your home in the area ... but they offer even more.
Book the Zip-Line Tour. Book it now & maybe even book it twice! With the longest single zip-line in Central America and 3rd longest in the world!.. PLUS 10 other lines ... not to mention THE most knowledgeable, safest -- and funniest -- guides to lead the way and you have an unforgettable, must-do, adventure that is worth every penny and more.

Very nice hotel at a reasonable price. Our room ( #9) was spacious and clean. The hotel restaurant provided some of the better dining experiences of our week in the area, and the staff was very very nice. The pool is small but does the trick.
The hotel is in close proximity ( 5 minute drive ) to the beach, the park, and Quepos.

It was me and my girlfriends first trip to Costa Rica and we couldn't have been more properly introduced. The service at the hotel was great the staff is super friendly and very helpful. I just loved how The Manuel Antonio National Park is right at your back door so all of the cool birds such as Broad-Billed Flycatchers and Scarlet-Rumped Tanagers, Mammals such as the Coati and the Agouti, and reptiles such as geckos and basilisks. The food in the restaurant is a little pricey but delicious. The hotel is located within a 20 minute walk from the entrance to the park and the pacific ocean. The rooms are large and very comfortable. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
