Always an excellent choice. Location is great. Staff is top notch. Views fro. Our room were breathtaking and sunset from the patio was perfect. We had the Ahi Tuna and lobster pasta for dinner and they were good, not great. Firvthe price we expected more. Breakfasts were excellent. Great selection. And the bartender was a treat. Mixed a super drink and extremely personal.

Hôtel Mariposa was amazing. The staff was so friendly and attentive, the pools were stunning, the rooms were clean and open. The mixed fresh blended juice in the morning and delicious breakfasts were a bonus. I love bartender Kendall and Oscar at the front desk and server Mike. It was a fabulous stay and I can’t wait to get back.

Check in was very easy and Alan was very nice and accommodating. We were early for our check in, but they were able to hold our bags and allowed us to get some food and drinks while we waited.

No microwave or iron was an issue and the food was pricey. I also payed to stay in the room for two days and because my 2 kids were not 8 and under I had to pay an extra $300. Which was excessive.

DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL. Horrible customer service! We had a family emergency and had to cancel/reschedule our vacation. We tried speaking to the hotel managers to explain our unfortunate ordeal where a member of our immediate family had become ill the day before we were expected to arrive and they showed absolutely no empathy and refused to allow us to rebook our vacation. The airline completely understood and gave us a refund, whereas La Mariposa Hotel refused even a credit to allow us to come in a few weeks or months. We tried speaking with ownership, who they claimed made this policy, but refused to put us in touch with them. Our kids are heartbroken. Why would anyone want to do business with such a cold and heartless establishment?!

I recently stayed at Hotel Mariosa, and it was a perfect experience from start to finish. The hotel itself is immaculate, with beautiful decor and comfortable accommodations. What truly made my stay exceptional was the outstanding service provided by Gregory at the Papillon restaurant. He went above and beyond to ensure every need was met, making me feel truly valued as a guest. His attention to detail and friendly demeanor made my dining experiences unforgettable.
A special mention also goes to Dayana, who prepares the best omelets during breakfast. Her skill and dedication made each morning a delightful start to the day. I highly recommend Hotel Mariosa and especially commend Gregory at the Papillon restaurant and Dayana for making my stay so memorable.

Everything was great about this hotel, including what really seems to be the best view in the area. I did find the restaurant to be very overpriced for the quality of the food but I think you’re paying for the view. The pool was subpar for sure. The hot tub was the same same temperature as the pool. Overall the stay was really nice and the people were fantastic but I would definitely suggest them improving the pool for those days you might want to hang for a bit at the hotel.

Absolutely gorgeous setting on top of the hill overlooking Manuel Antonio park. Macaw flybys all day, toucan, and butterflies. 10 minutes to the park and good access to activities. Staff was very helpful and nice, even the grounds staff helped me to find birds as I am a photographer. Recommend one of the sunrise or sunset rooms. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

I have never felt more welcomed and more part of "the family" than I did at La Mariposa. Facilities were excellent, views were excellent, food was excellent, and the staff was superb. Allen was so very helpful and friendly, as they all were.

I’ve traveled the world and have never experienced a view like this hotel has. Takes your breath away.

La Mariposa is staffed with helpful locals, who helped book amazing activities in Manuel Antonio area. Property is well located, and walkable to many shops and restaurants. It also offered a shuttle to the national park and beaches. The property sits at a high point in the area, and offers amazing views of the park and coastline. As its name suggests, there are abundant butterflies, and also flocks of macaws and other bird life. They breakfast buffet was good fuel to start active days. The property itself is a bit past its prime, and could use a refresh. There were other oddities that we typically don’t experience at properties at this price, such as having to swap a “towel coupon” for a towel at the pool, and having to pay for a welcome drink with alcohol (otherwise it’s a fruit juice).

Pros: million dollar views, size of the room.
Cons: Everything else. There were no amenities in the room except for a small table, not even a chair. I had to get the plastic chairs from the balcony. Very basic coffee with crusted creamer, no water. The bathroom was bare bones and sad looking. The property was ill maintained dirt in the common areas and cobwebs in the elevator. The breakfast was sub par, had better breakfast at airport hotel which was one third in price. Lastly, the service was indifferent at the best. Our worst experience at Costa Rica.

Beautiful property with a lot of amenities. Staff are amazing and so friendly. Our room was incredible (the ocean view). Close to a lot of shops, restaurants, market, beaches and the amazing national park. Would only stay here if coming back.

The location of this property is incredible but the rooms are dated. Bathrooms need to be updated. Dianny at the front desk was very helpful. But can’t say that about some of the other staff. Views from the corner suites were incredible.

The hotel was full of bugs in the room. The service not too good. The only thing to admire is the scenic views you get in the restaurant. Otherwise, wouldn’t recommend to stay, just to dine in.

Tidy hotel with an excellent pool area and spectacular view. Breakfasts were also good.
Negative Issues included too many bugs got into the room at night. Noisy room air conditioning. Not close to the beach and with a very high climb back to the hotel. Roads outside the hotel were terrible with potholes everywhere.

We thought the infinity pool was beautiful and for the most part the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food at the restaurant was good and tons of good restaurants and entertainment within walking distance.
3.0
The views from this hotel are breathtaking. The food is reasonably good too. The restaurent gets busy in the evening, so I would recommend making a reservation if you plan to dine here.
The rooms are spacious and comfortable, however are in dire need of an update (see pictures) for their rates. Everything is slightly old or rusty. Oddly the lights in the room are bright bluish-white (day light) like a night market, compared to the usual warm-white found in hotels. There are basically no amenities in the room apart from black coffee (no milk), such as water bottles, robes or slippers.
The rooms were cleaned every day, but service was not particularly warm or attentive compared to the rest of the our costa rica experience. The receptionist was however exceptionally nice to us.
