This is a ‘must see ‘ resort. The private cabanas in the middle of the rain forest offers all kinds of wildlife sightings and a peaceful paradise. The staff were engaging and provided excellent service. The pool is an incredible, clean oasis. I’d highly recommend this hotel.

This hotel was one of the best experience I’ve ever had! My wife and I went there to celebrate our honeymoon. As soon as we arrived there, I was mesmerized, and we got to see the monkeys which we thought was pretty cool. They have a restaurant they’re called YOLO and the staff are extremely kind and very helpful. The best service we’ve ever had. We booked a bungalow and the views were to die for! extremely clean and very accommodating. Breakfast is by the pool, which gives you a scenic view, and of course the staff were also extremely kind. This hotel is also located very close to Manuel Antonio national Park, which also leads you to the most beautiful beaches. I highly recommend this place. And again thank you Ecotica for making our honeymoon perfect!

My companion and I stayed August 8-12 - this is a phenomenal spot. It’s a small jewel of a place. The rooms are gorgeous, the pool is beautiful, the breakfast was lovely and the service is so special. Thank you go Robert and Moses for taking great care of us. Such kind people. I loved seeing the monkeys and the macaws! I will definitely return in the future. Thank you for a fabulous couple of days. Cheers!

Beautiful property located in a great location. We saw the most wildlife from the hotel and saw all three types of monkeys, scarlet macaws, and yellow-throated tucans, all from our balcony! Lastly, Moses the bartender is phenomenal and a great host, and very welcoming. Could not recommend a better place than Ecotica!
