We arrived around 8:30 pm to check in after a 4 hour drive from airport. Restaurant was to be open til 10 pm. We got to our room and front desk called and said restaurant was going to close early because slow but would stay open if we went to eat right then. They stayed open to accommodate us. Food and service were excellent!

This was one of the best resorts we have ever stayed at. The staff and service were amazing. Renaldi, Rebecca and Evaline as well as others who we didn’t get their names went above and beyond in making our stay so wonderful. Also the grounds were immaculate and the rooms were large and comfortable. The breakfast was pretty good, but we purchased lunch and dinner and both of those were so good. My favorite part was all the iguanas during the day hanging around and all the geckos at night keeping insects away. If we ever return to Quepos, Costa Rica we would definitely stay at this amazing resort.

We found that the bathroom at the room we requested hasn’t been cleaned, so they moved us to a different one. The swimming pool hours are a bit inconvenient (closed at 7:00 pm) usually closing time at other hotels is 10:00 pm. Would have been nice to enjoy it, bur not possible with their schedule. Breakfast was very good.

The bathroom was clogged and as they were trying to repair, dirty water came out of drain and bathroom into the room. Our room was changed eventually but we lost a lot of valuable time and had to deal with mess in room around our luggage.

We booked a 2 bedroom Casita for 3 nights and got a warm welcome from Miguel, Alejandra, Jessie, Danny and Dylan who are very nice, efficient, kind and professional. Our casita is near the pool, lovely, spacious, clean, the linen, towels and bath toiletries are superb but you can hear the loud street traffic. Pool is nice with restrooms and outdoor showers. Lush gardens are fantastic. Ample and safe free parking.Room WiFi is very weak, breakfast is average.

We stayed 3 nights at La Foresta Nature Resort. Convenient location to drive to Manuel Antonio (approx 25 minutes), dinner and cocktails at the restaurant was delicious and the staff very attentive. Breakfast was included and ordered off the menu. There were macaws in the morning and monkeys in the nature reserve. Highly recommend staying here

El hotel está muy bien, tiene piscina y senderos para caminar donde puedes ver monos y otros animales. Si vas por los senderos ponte mucho repelente que había mosquitos, pero en el hotel, la piscina y eso no había. Las camas son cómodas y la habitación es amplias. Le pongo un 4 porque el desayuno es mejorable, no había casi opciones dulces y era limitado. Con poco esfuerzo pueden mejorarlo mucho.

The staff was great and the property was very nice. The pool was nice, and we had macaws and other birds flying over. It seemed like every cabin had an iguana outside, which was fun. Our room was close to the highway, but this really didn't bother us. We wish we had stayed longer!
