Apartments in Refugio Nacional de Vida Silvestre Gandoca-Manzanillo

"Received an upgraded room with 2 bedrooms. Rooms were clean and very spacious. Free breakfast with typical local food, which was good. Good location for being quiet yet walking distance to restaurants and shops. The only weird thing is that while the shower had shampoo and shower gel( no conditioner), the bathroom did not have any hand soap, only a dish to put some on. The staff was very welcoming and helpful."

"Beautiful property, staff was amazing, this place is a gem! "

"Clean rooms, good looking pool. The room was noisy at night - lots of clicking of furniture / noise because of aircon. The pool chairs meant you could only lie one way. Breakfast was ok but not great"

"The staff was wonderful and all of the amenities were great. Just had a problem with cleaning my room..had to remind the staff."

"Great staff we had problems with another hotel in the area due to cleanliness I contacted them and they helped get us in the room early so we could leave the bad hotel sooner. Super friendly super clean place. Nice staff and good drinks by the pool. The breakfast was delicious as well "

"A great place !!! Everything was perfect, and the Staff was great. "

"Room spaceous."

"Ok wish i could give 10 stars to this resort. Love love love the beautiful gardens and ocean front. Absolutely stunning. Would highly recommend. Quick tuk tuk ride to town center. No regrets we picled this place!"

"This house is beautiful and extremely well situated. Close to the beach, grocery store and restaurants. We were a groupe of 6 occupying the main house which was comfortable and well appointed. Kitchen had everything we needed and the living and dining rooms are classy and comfortable. The large windows offer beautiful views of the outside grounds and pool. Everyone in our group just loved the pool. Its well kept and large enough for us all. The surrounding yard is gorgeous and creates a atmosphere of privacy. Erinn was very quick to respond when issues came up and, as others have said, she generously provides info about the area. There are a few reasons I did not give this property 5 stars. We were surprised that the main house windows on the first floor had no screens, while the loft had only screens with no glass windows. None of the bathrooms have ventilation or openable windows and that was a problem. The storage situation is not user friendly with no poles to hang clothes, very few hooks or towel bars. The laundry room is great with two washers and dryers. The linens were of good quality and the towels, including beach towels, were plentiful. Unfortunately one of the dryers had screws sticking out inside that we didn’t notice before a few items were damaged. The listing specifies dining space for 12 outside but only a table for four was provided. We stayed for 10 nights. If you rent for a short period these things may not be a problem. "
