Adults Only in Costa Rica

"Loved everything about this property. The location is ideal as you are situated in the heart of the downtown core and the frontage of the hotel is directly on the beach. Could always find a chair on the beach front or around one of the pools, and dining overlooking the beach, even though we were visting during the peak season. Never felt overly crowded in the pools or restaurants. Food in restaurants was very good. They have a very good breakfast with plenty of delicious tropical fruit. For coffee lovers, their dark roast coffee is excellent. Staff were all very polite, friendly and helpful. The rooms are very spacious and quiet and balcony was very private. Mattress was very firm, but allowed for good sleep. Hotel is a little older, but very well maintained. Would highly recommend this resort and would rebook in a heartbeat. "

"Comvenient near airport, nice pool"

"Very peaceful. Just what we were looking for"

"I really enjoyed my stay at Arenal Manoa. The view of the volcano was incredible (even though it rained most days). The staff was super friendly, helpful, and professional. The hot springs? Phenomenal. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and exactly what I needed to start my day. As a solo traveler, I never felt unsafe, and I didn’t have to worry about walking back to my room after a long day because on-site transportation was always available. My only gripe is that their airport transportation options were pricier than an Uber, which didn’t feel very reasonable. All in all, it was a great experience! "

"This is an awesome stop for a day before or after flying into San Jose. The City Mall is beautiful and so is the hotel. The food options were great. The hotel restaurant is really good. "

"The staff is amazing. Everyone was so friendly and eager to assist with anytbing we needed. We did not have any trouble gettimg seated at any of the restaurants and we tried out everyone of them. All were great. The different night events were very fun and the beach was so nice, never crowded and we were always able to get lounge chairs for our whole group. We will definitely be returning to the RIU Guanacosta"
