Perfect location and views!

First of all the location and the views of this was awesome! Out of the hotel and you’re in the national park. The views from your balcony of the ocean sunset or just a spectacular as any sunset restaurant you would go to. The service was great the animals on the property like monkeys on our balcony survived and others were able to see even before going to the park. The pool was refreshing and the breakfast was adequate choices. The only downside is that since these are containers, they noise travels and the walls are paper thin! There is a steep hill to climb, but they also have golf courts to take you up. They are quick to respond to you on WhatsApp. It’s a good solud three + star hotel

Love how close it was from the National Park entrance. Great attention from the staff. Wifi was not working most of time. The first elevator did not look or feel very safe. Regarding the breakfast, it will be more convenient if the guests can have both coffee and juice, rather than one option per breakfast.

Great stay

This was different. Hotel made with old containers but it works. Sound proofing between walls was thin. But 2 nights was fine. Stay on the top floor. Best view. steep hill to climb. Not for someone with any knee or hip issues.

El Faro is as pictured, very convenient located next to Manuel Antonio park, literally you can walk to the park, the staff is very nice and polite, Juan Carlos from the restaurant was very attentive and helpful on any type of question we had , he went above and beyond to make sure our stay was pleasant, the food in the restaurant is really good , we booked the studio on the terrace and it had everything that a couple need it (a/c , wifi , mini fridge, coffee maker , bathroom, elevators) the hotel has two pools and a beautiful view to Manuel Antonio beach, so I think is a great value for the money, I sure recommend it
