This is an excellent boutique hotel in a fabulous location with friendly and attentive staff. We had amazing views of the Manuel Antonio coast from our room. If you are lucky, the wild life will come to you - we saw spider monkeys and a capucin monkey from our balcony. Breakfast on the terrace makes for a great start to the day. The hotel is a short walk from the Playa Biesanz - a great little beach that you access via a path through rain forest. Parking is in short supply but we always found a space. Overall this is a great choice.

My husband and I stayed in a penthouse suite for our anniversary trip. The room was fantastic and the price included breakfast and lunch with drinks. The pool was very nice and there were great views throughout. We really liked the shuttle service as well.

We ate dinner at the hotel out first night and the dinner service was poor. I watched the other tables getting excellent service and we felt neglected. Our tablecloth was dirty and stained as well. After seeing bread service at the other tables, we finally requested some after our salads were served. My steak was served to me without a steak knife and, catching his mistake, the waiter grabbed a butter knife from another table. A few minutes later, he brought the steak knife. Also, we requested a list of sparkling wines and that took about 20 min to receive. I supposed people do not typically order sparkling wine at this hotel. Also, they do not serve wine by the glass, which is absolutely absurd to me.

I would stay at this hotel again but I would not reccomend eating dinner at their restaurant.

La Mansion is a very nice boutique hotel (about 20 rooms) and the view is breath taking. BIG room spotless. Breakfast on the terrace was also great. Service was always excellent. Valet service to and from the beach is very convenient.

The only negative note is the diner; our two meals were disappointing. They weren't worth the amount spent. But don't worry, Manuel Antonio area has lots of very nice restaurants.

Our weekly stay at La Mansion Inn surpassed all of our expectations; we could say that it was perfection, or as Tico's say, "tuanes." Our room was beautiful; each day they were cleaned to excellence, and while newly renovated, it still held old-world Costa Rican charm. After a day of beach, ATV tours, excursion to town, etc., we came home to such comfort that began as soon as we parked the car, all the way until the bed was turned down. The staff was beyond gracious. We especially found kindness and dedication from Jesus, Juan Carlos, Damien, Erik, Jorge, and Carlos. Each man made our stay extra special with sincere and gracious smiles. We slept beautifully and each morning opened our sliding glass doors to a view that overlooked a secluded beach and many trees. As we sat in our rocking chairs to discuss the day ahead, our mood was set by such an amazing scenery. If one has the desire to visit Heaven on Earth, La Mansion Inn is your place. Be prepared to find a peace unlike all others. Many thanks from Lainey and Ran.
