My husband and I wanted to celebrate our first anniversary near the beach. The hotel is perfectly located right in front of the beach, but that was the only good thing about it. The room was awful. For the price we paid we should have stayed at a better hotel. You are paying just for the front beach. I had... More

The people in the Hotel is quite friendly, but is insufficient. You can never find someone who can help you. Additionally, the Hotel has been neglected. In our room the refrigerator was dirty and the night lamps did not work. There was any posibility to open a window, then you need to use all the time the air conditioner which... More

What a horrible and dirty place to stay! Unfriendly staff, extremely dirty rooms with a air condition covered with mold. The shower felt seriously dangerous! The room has no windows witch can be opened so you need to use the dirty air-co. The road from the apartments to the main raid is a real challenge, even by car!

We spent almost three weeks in Costa Rica and this was BY FAR THE WORST place we stayed. Even places less than half the price were miles better. We were meant to be staying 3 nights but as soon as we checked in, we dumped our bags and went looking for somewhere else to stay instead. We got a bad... More

We had a very nice experience with Hotel Arboleda. The rooms were clean, hotel grounds were beautiful and the price was right. Compared to all the other hotels located on the beach at Manuel Antonio Hotel Arboleda was about one-third the price. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel was right on the beach and easy walking distance... More

I recently stayed at the Hotel Arboleda with 25 wedding guests. We all had a wonderful week, and everyone in our party fell in love with the hotel. The location is perfect - right on the beach and in walking distance to Manuel Antonio. The grounds are gorgeous - loads of trees and flowers and monkeys and lizards. And the... More

This hotel has gone downhill, it was just a big disappointment this time. What is up with the front desk lady? She always (it's our third time here) is on a need to know basis and yet barely knows any English. Each time we've come here, she gives us a key for room 34- no thank you. Then we end... More

This is by far the worst hotel I have stayed in. The pictures on the website totally misrepresent the deteriorated condition of the hotel. Despite advanced reservations, we found our family checked into a very moldly, extremely dirty, electrically hazardous (i.e. exposed wires in the shower) room with no provisions (i.e. towels, dishes etc.) and a broken bed. We were... More

If you like to spend a lot of money for a very basic cabin, this is your place to stay. It is dark inside, the floor is dirty, the beds are cracky and the air con is so so. Yes, your are very close to the beach, but unfortunately it is not the best part of the beach since the... More
