The owners and family were amazing and friendly to help! Rooms average but clean. Unfortunately we were expecting a normal restaurant per the website and that is not available unless a group is pre booked.
Situated in a local neighbourhood off the hwy. 30 minutes to San Antonio National Park. One large and comfortable room. Air con is off when you first arrive so the room is stuffy but once the AC is running for about 30 min room is comfortable. A large, glass window and door are secure but one must close drapes for privacy.
This place was a great choice. We had a great room, very friendly owner walked us around the whole property talking about the plants and facilities. The food was amazing as it was typical local fare. The owner even picked a ripe soursop from her onsite tree for us for breakfast.
Great place, comfortable, clean and the staff is incredible. The owner Marlen what a women so kind and nice. We felt like at home. The manglar tour is superb a must see and live experience. Beach is not that close (not that far either) but still this place is worth the distance. We will come back we loved our stay.

Awesome location for Kayaking
Very Nice Family Run Hotel. Could not have asked for a nicer group of people running the hotel.
Arrived at 7:30 pm, greeted with great smiles and warm sincere staff! Very accommodating, very sweet, room clean, air conditioned, safe!
Best, went out for a 8:30 pm kayak! Amazing adventure,guide was happy to stay and accommodate!
Kayak Lodge is a beautiful place, but what makes it truly special is the family that owns the place. They’re all warm, polite and extra nice, always willing to make sure you enjoy your stay. Marlene, the lady owner, makes the best Costa Rican breakfast and she goes the extra mile at making sure you are spoiled when serving it! You almost feel like going to visit an aunt you rarely get to see because of the distance, the kind that will have you go back home well-fed and with a wide smile across your face.
Plus: you can cook your own meals at the kitchen, if you like.
Stayed here with my husband and children (10 and 8). Booked because of the reviews that said there were monkeys in the area. Because we stayed during the green (rainy) season we were the only ones in the entire lodge. The suite was clean and spacious, beds were comfortable, Marlene and staff were so sweet. We woke up to monkeys right outside our bedroom every morning-- the kids loved it! The area was safe. Marlene gave us advice on where to buy groceries and places to eat. Our stay was excellent! We'd definitely stay again.
A well maintained and lovingly attended to property with a genuinely happy and giving señora smiling and helping you with any questions or concerns. This hotel is a good choice if the moderate hotels at Manuel Antonio are full and you have transportation.
The hotel was all locked up when we got there. There was personal problems happening for the owners and our reservation was overlooked. We finally got things worked out and our group stayed the night and had the whole place to ourselves. The owner came in the morning and made us an amazing breakfast and offered us a free kayak tour to make up for the trouble. They did their best to make up for the initial troubles and the owner was very nice. Based on that I wouldn't hesitate to stay again
We enjoyed our stay here. The room was clean and comfortable, AC worked perfectly. There is a clean, deep pool that we found refreshing. We played fussball and generally found plenty of entertainment. The owner of the hotel was very helpful and kind. The mangrove tour was fun, informative, and we saw a mangrove eagle, tiger heron, kingfishers, and other beautiful birds. We had a couple of good dinners. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. My daughter loved it.
Por el monto que se pago se esperaba una habitación más grande, la piscina estaba sucia, nos quedamos sin cable y wifi por una hora aproximadamente, el trato de los que atendían no tengo queja, se escucha mucho el ruido de las habitaciones al lado
Un trato familiar muy personalizado, doña Marlene, la dueña, es una persona muy amable y de una gran vocación de servicio que hace de la estadía una linda experiencia, espero volver pronto.
