Slice of paradise
Overall a great experience. Location to the beach and national park couldnā€™t be better. Room was nice and clean. Only complaint on room was utter lack of closet / storage space, even for one person. 2 people would be really tight. Pool area was lovely. Restaurant and bar was fantastic for breakfast and dinner. Friendly staff all over. Would definitely stay here again.

Everything there was great. + clean and spacious room + fan on the ceiling + big and delicious breakfast or Swedish buffet + friendly staff + nice environment and beach was close + wi-fi + no insect inside - sometimes there were blackouts but it was in the whole location, not just in the hotel

The staff and property were top notch. We saw a sloth and monkeys on and outside of the property. Beach is a very short walk away. We would come and stay again as well.

The hotel got good reviews online, but this was one of those cases where the real thing EXCEEDED my expectations. The room and grounds were even nicer than they looked on the internet. There are actually two properties nearly adjacent to each other, as part of the hotel. We stayed at the Hotel Espadilla Gardens with a beautiful poolside view from our room. The Hotel Playa Espadilla was across the street (a smaller pool, but has a hot tub) and we had a delicious free breakfast there everyday. It was conveniently located a short walk to the beach near several restaurants, a market, souvenir shops, and of course was right by the famed Manuel Antonio park (we were so close to the entrance, we were able to walk). The kind and helpful staff happily arranged a tour guide and tickets to the park (which was actually really lucky, because otherwise the limited tickets were sold out during the busy week before Easter. They also arranged an awesome catamaran snorkeling trip. Note #1) The website noted laundry was available; I thought that meant self-serve, so I brought detergent; however it was a send-out service that charged by weight (of dried clothes) and was pretty expensive. Note #2) there were only a couple of electrical outlets, so charging devices was a little tricky. OVERALL, this was a TERRIFIC stay and I definitely would stay there again.

We loved our stay at Playa Espadilla y Gardens hotel! Usually you expect a hotel/resort to be a little less nice than the pictures show online since they show off the best parts - here we were surprised to find it was even more beautiful and luxurious than we expected! We would love to stay here ag
