I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE FOR FAMILIES AND GROUPS. What an amazing place. Upon arrival the staff greeted us like we were repeat customers. They quickly checked us in and even met my request to have our rooms near the restaurant. the rooms are actually small cabins with spectacular views of the volcano and native fauna. The buffet breakfast was amazing and had great variety, the lunch and dinners were also great. The resort has a great pool area with swim up bar and adjoining hot spring. the areas and rooms were always kept very clean by the staff. The resort is large and they have golf carts and buses to ferry you around the complex, or like many , you can walk. the location is 5 minutes from the town and near many tasty restaurants, and local sodas too.

Reception staff did an outstanding job of helping to arrange transportation for our trip from the airport, any trip into town, as well as other excursions. Transportation staff (especially Freddy!) were friendly and hospitable. The grounds were beautiful and rooms were very clean and comfortable. We hope to come back again some day!

We had an amazing time at this hotel! The property and the bungalows are beautiful. The natural surroundings are stunning. We stayed at the junior suite and the room was spacious and very nicely furnished. The welcome drinks, sweets, and special treat we got for my husband's birthday were extra special. The pools are great, and the drinks and food were good too. The service at times could have been better, but otherwise, we really enjoyed our time there, and would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

Manoa is beautiful! The staff is the best! We stayed at a Chato room and the view of the Arenal Volcano is magnificent. The staff went above and beyond...our house keeping lady, Petrona asked if she could come in for housekeeping one day and we told her no because our daughter was feeling a bit sick from her stomach. In less than 10 minutes front desk (Valeria) called asking how my daughter felt and if there was anything they could help us with. They asked the property chef to do a chicken soup for her, not on thw menu at all, brought it to her with a club soda. They followed up that afternoon to see how she was feeling.Now that is what I call excellent customer service! A gentleman named Cesar that helped with transportation was such a nice and helpful individual...my girls wanted to see a sloth during our stay and wvsryday he looked for one and called us to go see it until we finally did! I jist cannot say enough nice things of this property! This has been one of our favorite stays in Costa Rica! Thank you Manoa for your excellent customer service and for knowing us by name and making us feel like family at all times ❤️

Their free wifi is terrible! Doesnt work. We get a free upgrade through our expedia account. The front desk guy said there were no rooms since we could only upgrade to the next level, which was fine. We saw the another room that we wanted to upgrade to and was willing to pay difference. It was on expedia. The front desk guy said said the room was triple on their website, which was a lie, i checked and it wasnt. He gave us a really hard time and would not upgrade us with the expedia price even though our reservation was through expedia and we were willing to pay different. We ended up not upgrading since it was 8 pm and wanted a ridiculous amount of money to upgrade. Hot springs at this resort wasn't anything special either. The only thing nice was the view from breakfast restaurant.

Wonderful stay, clean and safe. Our room was facing Arenal Volcano and surrounded by nature.. The staff was very sweet and friendly, I requested an extra bed as my 2 boys hate sharing a bed, and the staff quickly did the setup. Breakfast was good, with variety for vegan, gluten and vegetarian options. The only missing thing would be a gym access or a tennis court. Other than that we loved our stay.
