Hotel San Bada was in a great location, had all the luxuries we needed, and the staff was fantastic. Pools were beautiful with sightings of iguanas. The roof top restaurant was amazing with views of wildlife including toucans, parrots, and other bird species. Daniel, our waiter went above and beyond! We had a great stay!

8/10 Very good

It is a good place to stay. It is at the entrance of the park, you can walk to the beach, there are places to eat nearby and the contact with nature is excellent.
Jose Francisco, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful property, great food, directly next to park and beaches. I had a wonderful stay and would come again.
David, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It is very conveniently located next to the gates of Manuel Antonio Park and is also 2 minutes walk from the public beach. Amenities are good and the staff ( Jose Avendano particularly) was very hospitable. The food at the roof top restaurant ( particularly the sea food) is excellent. Got to see a lot of exotic birds and sloth on the property. Overall a pleasant stay.

Service was fantastic during our stay. Beautiful hotel with convenient location. What really stood out most was the accommodations available for my mother in law. The staff was really attentive. Thank you for the enjoyable stay. Definitely will return for our next stay.

10/10 Exceptional

We've stayed at the San Bada several times. The location is perfect if you want to visit the national park. Short walk to the beach. Staff is wonderful. The view from the 6th floor restaurant is amazing - try it a sunset. Highly recommended.
Randy, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel looked nice and the staff were friendly. The location to the national park is excellent, just next to the hotel, and going to the beach was so convenient. But the first morning we were woken up by bathroom roaring, couldn’t figure out where the noise came from. And the second day there was no hot water until we left.
weili, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Room smelled old and some hard (bug spray) kind of smell. Very old hotel but convenient to walk to beach and Manuel Antonio National park is next to the hotel, walkable to many restaurants and souvenir shopping All pools were accessible

Beach access was easy and it was very close to manuel Antonia national park entrance.

10/10 Exceptional

If your purpose is visiting the National Park, this is the perfect hotel for that!
Mona, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Would not stay again.
The one great thing about this hotel is, its next door to the National Park. Hotel is a little dated and could do with a revamp. The sun lounger by the pool downstairs are made of wood, no cushions providedso extremely uncomfortable. Music is really loud by the pool. Some of the staff, just do not give a dam about you, whilst others go out of their way for you. I would not stay here again

MARTINA, 2-night trip

The closest hotel to the national park! So easy to eat breakfast at the hotel and just walk to the opening of the park.
Amber, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was so convenient to be near the park and also have our own pool to enjoy.
Alejandra, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We stayed at Hotel San Bada for two nights. You can't beat the location, it's literally next to Parque Manuel Antonio. The hotel itself was descent although the screen doors in both our rooms were jammed shut, so we were unable to access the patio. The pool area is nice and the bartenders friendly. The restaurant is pretty good and breakfast was included in the rate.
Zachery, 2-night trip

The staff was particularly gracious and helpful.
Kristine, 4-night trip

What an amazing stay at Hotel San Banda! Closest hotel to Manuel Antonio park! We actually saw more animals at our hotel than IN the park! Staff was extremely accommodating and friendly. The walk to the beach was easy! Will definitely stay again.
Jennifer, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Property is in a prime location. The view from the 5th floor facing the beach was breathtaking. The room was clean and staff on site was very attentive. Roof top restaurant/pool was great to bird watch and hang out. We saw a few monkeys, raccoons and Tucans. Would definitely come back again.
