“Fabulous stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 16, 2013

A great location - 5mins to both the entrance of the stunning National Park, and the small town (MA is much smaller than you think). Ground floor room, with two very big comfy beds, a/c, towels, the bathroom was fine - small but fully functional and with hot water. Hotel has free WiFi, and a computer/internet for free use. There is a lovely sitting area with very comfy sofas - ideal with a cocktail from happy hour - to relax. Ate at restaurant both nights - service very good - can see the kitchen, good food, great cocktails. Good breakfast. A great choice.

“Amazing!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 8, 2013

I would like to start my review with this question, what would you like to do on next vacations? I definitely recommend you the Hotel Villabosque. It is a 3 hrs from San Jose and when you arrive there you can be inspired in a few seconds looking at the Manuel Antonio Beach (100 meters), this is a paradise in comparison with other places. Talking in terms of Hotel Villabosque and their attractions starting with the staff, they're so kind and always willing to provide excellent services. The Hotel offers comfortable rooms, tv cable, air conditioning between others advantages when you want to rest and breathe peace. I really enjoy stay there, hearing the monkeys and birds around there, also the pool at the hotel top, the bar (variety of beverages). Near to Manuel Antonio National Park. I mean, the best place to get a chance for myself and family.

Room Tip: Call to the hotel and reserve the room close to the pool. The best!

“Great location and 3* accomodation”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 8, 2013

We stayed in this hotel for two nights in the middle of January while on a tour. It is located within easy walking distance of the main street of Manual Antonio village and of the entrance to the park. The grounds are very nicely kept. The restaurant and bar are very pleasant areas to relax, eat and have a cool drink.

Our room was on the ground floor off the parking lot. It was quite large, with three single beds. The bathroom was also quite large. The whole room was very clean and well kept. The bathroom featured only liquid soap in wall containers. There is only cold water in the sink, but the shower had plentiful hot water. The room also had a large screen TV (no English language stations), a table and two chairs. Outside the room there were two chairs to enjoy the sun and the heat. The hotel swimming pool, while somewhat smallish, was clean and very pleasant to use after the hot walk in the park. Our room came with breakfast. It featured beans and rice (a Costa Rican staple), scrambled eggs, toast, juice and coffee. The food was nice and hot, well cooked and plentiful. There was also fresh fruit available. The staff was very friendly and helpful. For example, we were allowed to use our international calling card on the hotel phone at no charge. We really appreciated being able to do this.

All in all this hotel is probably a 3*. We enjoyed our time here and certainly would recommend it to others.
