We liked the huge garden with hiking trails. We didn't know, that the hotel offered such a nice background. It was a nice bonus.

At the hostel, the rooms are fitted with a wardrobe. All rooms are equipped with air conditioning, a safety deposit box and a flat-screen TV, and certain units at Pura Natura Lodge Manuel Antonio have a terrace. The units feature bed linen.

We had an apartment with an amazing view and we had two hammocks to relax in. Inside the apartment is big, a little basic but it has ac and a fan which is great. The host at the reception, JC, is truly amazing and will help you with everything you need. We saw many animals from the apartment which was really cool, JC even called our names one time when there were toucans outside so we could see them.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Fantastic hostel. Great facilities. Kitchen is large, pool and garden area is lovely. Staff very nice and helped us organise tours and transport. Room was very comfortable for a family of 4. Great location in town. We were lucky to see macaws in the hostel garden.

    I liked the location, very close to the bus stop, very closed to the restaurants. The pool was really nice surrounded by flowers and coconut trees. It was quieter than staying along the road towards Manuel Antonio Park. I will recommand to stay there while vising the Manuel Antonio park as there are buses departing close to the hostel, and you will sleep better, and be able to go to cheaper supermarkets or restaurants.

    Everything. It's the best hostel ever directly located at the beach. You don't only have sand but also grass surfaces which is really nice as well. The best thing is the jungle shower.

    Absolutely loved this hostel! Kitchen was well equipped and lots of areas to relax. Felt very secure and safe. More of a family getaway than a hostel vibe which we didn’t mind.

    It was our best hostel in Costa Rica. Pamela and Jorge are one of the best hosts we have ever experienced. At our arrival, Jorge picked us up at the busterminal and showed us nice spots in quepos + our first sloth. He also helped us to plan our activities. Breakfast is perfect, we had the chose between a traditional (gallo pinto) and a classic one (fruits eggs and toast). All in all - the best, cleanest, nicest hostel we have experienced in CR.
