La Mariposa Hotel - Manuel Antonio

La Mariposa var en herlig opplevelse. Hotellet er mye vakrere enn bildet vi så ga inntrykk av og svømmebassenget som "smelter" sammen med Stillehavet nedenfor er et syn for Guder. Beliggenheten til Mariposa er uslåelig, der man inntar sin frokost på terrassen med utsyn over stillehavet så langt øyet rekker , og bugnende regnskog, de vakreste trær og […] planter ned mot en av Costa Ricas vakreste strender. Dette er ren luksus for øyet, kropp og sjel. Fantastiske solnedganger hører til opplevelsen. Ved svømmebassengbaren, i et aldeles utrolig flott tre, bor et iguana par og hunnen er svært sosial. Kommer gjerne ut og får seg en bananbit. Fra rommet /bungalowen hadde vi den samme utrolige utsikten og capuchine aper kom klatrende oppover og satt seg på taket. Så tok de sats og slang seg ut i luften før de landet langt nede i et av de kraftige palmebladene. Veldig, veldig, gøy å se på! Luften er full av regnskogens lyder, albatrosser seiler over himmelen og pelikaner hviler på klipper ved stranden. Oppholdet på La Mariposa var intet mindre enn et tropisk eventyr, med all den komfort vi kunne ønske oss (med unntak av en vannkoker til te/ kaffe på rommet) Hotelbuss tar deg ned gratis til strandområdene, maten på hotellet smaker godt, og de har to gode restauranter å by på. Vi traff morsomme mennesker, som ble våre venner. Vennlige serviceinnstilte mennesker på hotellet her også, som overalt i Costa Rica. Rommet var stort og luftig, med nydelig bad/dusj, både airconditon og vifte. Det kan være nødvendig her, i denne delen av Costa Rica er det svært varmt, med regnskogene så tett på, men det er jo aldri langt til et basseng! eller havet. Hvis dette er et 3,5 stjerners hotel kommer jeg aldri noensinne til å ha behov for et 5 stjerners!! Anbefales på det varmeste! Les mer

Wonderful, charming hotel with a 180 degree view of the ocean from both the hotel and the wrap around infiniti pool. The staff were friendly, informative and accommodating. We would return again for a longer stay.

La Mariposa does an excellent job of taking care of their guests. Maria was wonderful and Fredric was a wealth of information as our waiter. We stay at La Mariposa every year, during our annual trip to Costa Rica. Hope to stay longer next time.

We stayed at La Mariposa for $90 a night - an absolute bargain for the quality of the hotel. Views of Arenal are stunning and the grounds are very well kept. La Mariposa doesn't have hot springs but for what you save you can go to a bunch of different hot springs several times. Ask for a cabin closer to the volcano; those have the best views. Included […] breakfast was very good. The hotel is a couple miles from town so you'll want a rental car if you're staying here. Les mer

The LaMariposa has beautiful views and very friendly and helpful staff. We happened to stay over a weekend with weddings both nights. As a result, we did not get any sleep as the party went on all night. The rooms are clean and spacious. The Wi-Fi (in room or lobby) did not work during our stay. As a result, the guests were all using the hotel computer. […] This was disappointing. The hotel is close to restaurants, beaches and the National Park. Les mer

PROS: amazing views, pool is excellent, great location, staff is excellent- give you short tour and welcome drink before you check in. Bfast selection is pretty good, but view during bfast from open air dining area are amazing. CONS: If you have childres or extras in standard room, the base prices increases a good bit. Rooms are good, but not large […] so those extra charges in last step of room booking are somewhat mis-leading when you think you have X dollars base rate per night. Les mer

La Mariposa Hotel is set on the highest peak in Manuel Antonio. The views from our room (#10 and #9) were amazing, like a postcard! The views from the pool and dining area were the amazing as well.

Great view with frindly, helpful staff. Breakfast buffet is excellent. Dined one night at the hotel. All our dishes were delicious. Dinner menu prices are in the $15-$30 range which is typical of resort dining. Difficult to get wi-fi unless you're near the front desk. Hotel bus transportation ran smoothly and on time.

It was a nice enough hotel, but lacked the amenities to back up the high price tag, especially when there are so many other hotels in the area. Pros: Service was stellar, the view was amazing, and the restaurant was great. Cons: the room was spartan: lots of space, but nothing on the walls, thin, terrible mattresses, only a sheet for bedding; the bathroom […] was full of ants and seemed to be crumbling (the tiles were in bad shape), the shower was dark and had little water pressure, and the in-room Wi-fi was nearly non-existent. There were restaurants nearby that were tasty, as well, though getting to a beach or grocery store required hopping on a bus (frequent, so not a huge problem). Les mer

Had a great room with beautiful view. Hotel is close to everything. No need for a car. Hotel staff was very helpful, especially Maria. Expect to climb a lot of steps but it's worth the view.

We enjoyed our week long stay very much. We were very pleased at the upgrade we received on check in. There were a lot of stairs, so this hotel would not be a good choice for anyone who has difficulty with that. The wonderful views made every stair worth it for us. The Internet was iffy in places but overall we would definitely return. The service was […] excellent. Les mer

Steven greeted us with a complimentary bottle of wine for our 25th wedding anniversary. Maria was such a big help with all my questions. She even arranged for a hairdresser to come to our room to do my hair. Maria is a real pro and a real natural at greeting people. Room #6 is a great ocean view with no climbing steps. The room was very clean. The breakfast […] and dinners were delicious. This hotel is more Costa Rican in style than American. The grounds are beautiful and very well kept up. The sunsets from the restaurant are the best in the world!! Cafe Milagro is just down the hill from the hotel. I called Cafe Milagro the Starbucks of Costa Rica. You have to try the vanilla chilla, I loved it!! Les mer

La Mariposa is very pretty, up high on the hill overlooking the water, with infinity pool and nice landscaping. The room had a great view as well but the decor is very odd and doesn't fit with the atmosphere (contemporary Euro style) - bed not very comfortable and the bathroom very dark with the black cement walls. Service was good and the people who […] worked there were all very friendly and helpful. The shuttle to the beach area only ran once in morning and once in afternoon, would have liked more continuous shuttle service so that we didn't have to take taxis everywhere. No beach access from hotel which was very inconvenient. Les mer

Everything was great. Yes it is a bit expensive but totally worth the price. Amazing views. We walked to the beach some times, but honestly....the views were so good that we preferred to just hang out in the patio. The breakfast was amazing too. Will definitely stay here if I return.

The location of the hotel is really handy for the local area. Its set on a hill which is easy to reach and this means one of the best views in the Manuel Antonio area. I had room 40 which was nicely furnished, comfortable big bed and amazing view. The view was stunning from the room view to the pool view. They really do have the best view in the area […] and you can relax by the pool to a beautiful sunset. I would reccommend this hotel and stay here again without hesitation. Les mer

Unbelievable View! The best we've ever had over decades of traveling. Ask for a corner room in the main building.

I just gotta say, It's too expensive for what it is, however no doubt is one of the best hotels in the area. Its most important asset would be its staff, it from another league!!!. U.S is far from this type of attention. location wise is perfect, you have everything walking distance. People, is the middle of the jungle , don't expect to run into bugs, […] flies or monkeys. This hotel is the highest on Manuel Antonio. locals go there to get the best view of the Bahia. I think for the price breakfast could have more variety. I'd definitely stay here again. Les mer

We loved the Mariposa! The location of the hotel is what makes it so wonderful. The view from the hotel is of the entire Manuel Antonio Beach. Our room was on the top floor and you could see forever. Don't ask for upper floors if you're scared of heights. The way to the room was a spiral metal outdoor staircase. The pool was very refreshing and nice […] to come back to after sightseeing. We hired a guide from the hotel to take us to Manuel Antonio Park. It was well worth it because he saw things that we wouldn't have been able to spot. Hotel needs a top Chef to complete the experience. Les mer

This hotel is overrated, our stay was so disappointing. The room was dismal, very uncomfortable bed. Hotels.com says "Signature bedding". Huh? The bedding was ultra cheap and the pillow covered in a plasticky cover that made the pillowcase fall off. We had to climb a few flights of stairs to get to the room, the stairs are slippery in the rain so unsafe […] with children. The only good thing was that someone carried our luggage up for us. The view from the hotel down in the pool area is beautiful. But from our room, the only way to see the ocean view is to sit at the very edge of the tiny balcony. Not at all what I saw in the photos on this website when I made the nonrefundable reservation. The photo here shows more windows in the room. There was an ashtray in our non-smoking room. The man at the front desk confirmed that all the rooms should be non-smoking. Later, another employee at the front desk said that our room did allow smoking, and this was a room advertised as non-smoking. They need to get their story straight. The shower only produced cold water, and was mildewy with the shower head loose from the wall. We took very short showers as it was cold and gross in there. There was a very bright light on all night long, which shone through the window above the door, and there was no way to turn it off or cover the window. I was surprised that they charged me for local calls , since the other hotels in CR didn't charge us. Les mer

You cannot beat the location of this hotel. Absolutely stunning views of the Pacific from the restaurant and pool area. This alone is worth the stay. Check in was a little slow and the staff wasn't as nice as other places we stayed during the week. The breakfast buffet was good but the food otherwise was not great and overpriced. We opted to eat out […] in other places. Having said that, I would recommend the hotel if you enjoy relaxing by the pool with a million dollar view. Les mer

Superb experience. This was the best hotel in Costa Rica (out of 4), The room has excellent installations (AC, hot water, etc), and the breakfast buffet was also the best in costa rica.
