2.5 / 5.0
Amazing stay. The staff are incredible. They just handle everything with care and attention. The food was terrific and fairly priced for being a 5 star resort. The resort itself is not a huge place but it’s still awesome and I’d highly recommend staying here
5.0 / 5.0
My wife and I stayed a week at GAIA and it was AMAZING! Upon arriving at the property the staff was fantastic. They greeted us by name once we entered the gate and brought us up to reception where we were met with a VIP experience. Alex and Stephanie were beyong accomodating and went above and beyond. They setup all of our activities and made all the necessary accommodations including transportation. They even sent me all the details to make sure I had all the right info. Then they followed up with us to make sure everything went well.
They set us up on a park tour with our guide Clarence who was phenomenal! He was not only informative but tremendously skilled at his job as well. He helped my wife get amazing pictures of the wildlife and was a pleasure to talk to. Clarence as well was our guide for the Macaw tour and we were given a top notch tour once again.
The restaurant staff was superb to say the least. Ricardo, Steven, Adam, Andre, and Steven from Columbia were phenomenal hosts and made us feel like family. The service was second to none. We were made to feel welcome and all our needs were attended to. The food was wonderful and we couldn't of asked for a better experience. Boris the owner would even come greet us at breakfast in the mornings to say hello and make sure we were enjoying our stay.
My wife and I loved this trip to Manuel Antonio and a big reason we did was because of the staff and our stay at Gaia. The property was beautiful and amazing.

The staff was absolutely amazing. Our personal concierge José was attentive and helpful. The restaurant was delicious, the property was quiet and beautiful. They took care of everything for us -reservations, transportation, recommendations, etc. Everyone knew our names, housekeeping was impeccable. We toured the nature reserve and our guide Clarence was so friendly and knowledgeable. I would never stay anywhere else.

This is a beautiful property located on a nature reserve. A tour of the reserve is included in the cost of stay and well worth it. Clarence is very knowledgeable and passionate about plants and animals.

Beautiful property with some thoughtful considerations. Light dimming and personal concierge. Great view from balcony. Personally, I think some reconsiderations in some of their interior design would be nice. It of course, could be my personal taste. Staff is very friendly
4.0 / 5.0
This hotel is somewhat isolated, but it does provide shuttle service to public beach (which we took advantage of). The food at the dining room was some of the best we had in our 12 days throughout Costa Rica. The check in and check out were efficient. Concierge service was provided via WhatApp and was smooth during our three day stay. The staff was outstanding. The room was dated and apartment like with television in the bedroom instead of the living room. Overall, we had a pleasant stay.
5.0 / 5.0
The hotel was quite beautiful and so were the views. They have a sky lounge to observe the sunset. The Scarlet Macau Conservation was a great hike- saw a sloth anpart from the macaus- and is complimentary. The place is overall dated but otherwise good.

If you're looking for a quiet, quaint place to stay with amazing customer service, this is the place for you! We spent 4 nights at Gaia and thoroughly enjoyed our room and the staff. We booked a jungle view room and it was exactly what we expected ..clean, quiet and great AC. The next morning, Boris, the owner approached us at breakfast and informed us that he wanted to move us. He moved us to an amazing suite with a rooftop deck overlooking the ocean! Totally unexpected but appreciated! Carlos helped us get to know the place and helped us line up transportation to Tamarindo at the end of our trip and Jimmy made sure we were always fed and had our beverages whether it was morning coffee or evening cocktails. We enjoyed the vegan breakfast each morning as well as a couple of options for dinner. The view of the macaws each evening topped off the view The hotel provided us with transportation to the beach as well as set us up with a trip to the park. Overall, it was an amazing stay and we would do it again! Special thanks to the gentleman who came and saved us from our unexpected guest as well as our pool side bartender who we watched the monkeys with. Apologies for not knowing your names.

Excellent service. Michael at front desk was very helpful and welcoming us checking in. He helped us with booking our excursions and transportation.He also went out of his way to let us stay and use property after check out and before our transport van arrived. Food at La Luna was very good. We also met the the owner Boris who was very nice and welcoming.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay
The views and wild life were incredible
Macaws flying past as you enjoy your breakfast was highlight
Clarence showed us around on the macaw trail - our old legs managed (just) to get up to the viewing point.
Staff incredible , food incredible -
The beach was also amazing
Would recommend this hotel

The included nature reserve for macaws, and the area in general that the resort is situated in with all of its biodiversity was a paradise indeed! The staff was super friendly and helpful, and it was clear that we were welcomed and appreciated. Many of the staff quickly learned Our names and addressed us as such. From the welcome fruit drinks when we got there to A, considerate, packed lunch to go, we got many extras. The food was great as the views from the restaurant and the rooftop. Drinks were also very good. We had our own individual concierge who we texted to arrange , a variety of tours which were universally. Awesome! Also, didn’t hurt that the weather was virtually perfect while we were there.

Our stay at the Gaia was fantastic! As stated by others, the staff is amazing. Our concierge Casey was incredibly helpful, even guiding us with recommendations in other regions after we departed. Johnny was also so wonderful and made one of the best margaritas I’ve ever had. We can’t wait to come back.

Lovely place. The views are excellent. The food is delicious. And the staff is second to none. We were having trouble finding distilled water in town. I reached out, asking if they knew where to get some. The next day they had distilled water for us.

This hotel should get 10 stars! The staff was beyond helpful and I have stayed in many countries and I have to say the pool and grounds were above and beyond my expectations. Staff was so quick. Everything was set up both in the room and outside hotel by staff. Food and drinks also amazing!! I would stay here again!
2.5 / 5.0
This beautiful hotel exceed our expectations. Located inside a natural reserve, offers guests a true immersion in Costa Rica’s nature, the most amazing views, excellent service and food.
The staff is extremely friendly and we were pampered during our entire stay. Countless small details made us feel home from the beginning. We were allowed an early check in and also received a room upgrade.
We mostly enjoyed watching the sunset from the swimming pool or the restaurant while enjoying dinner. The tour inside the reserve was also a highlight. The restaurant surprised us every day with delicious dishes. Being vegetarian I had enough options too.
The location allowed to be in few minutes at Manuel Antonio National Park, restaurants, bars and shops.
First time time at the Gaia Hotel, but sure not the last. Totally recommend it.

We stayed at Gaia for one night during our trip through Costa Rica. The resort was absolutely stunning. The views of the sunset were some of the best we’ve ever seen. All of the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Our only regret was that we didn’t get to spend more nights there.
4.0 / 5.0
Positives: Overall we enjoyed our stay. Cannot say enough nice things about the staff - they were wonderful. The room was also very nice and comfortable. Firm bed. Awesome shower. Golf cart available for transfer up and down the hill. Wonderful hot stone massage.
Negatives: we are vegetarian and although breakfast was amazing (and included), the other meals lacked sufficient options. Pool facilities were older. Limited room on the sun deck.
5.0 / 5.0
This was the most beautiful resort I have ever seen. You want a taste of Costa Rica? Stay here. Friendly, helpful and professional people work here and make your stay as comfortable and relaxing as you can imagine. Book your various outings through your own personal concierge and enjoy!

The stuff, the hotel, the spa, the room, the manual Antonio park!!!
1.0 / 5.0
I don't recommend this property. The management is kind until you provide constructive criticism. The hotel reception is shabby and outdated. The jungle rooms get little natural light. The property owner accuses anyone who doesn't highly rate his property with five stars of having “outbursts” on another review website. Every single traveler with a critique of his property isn't mentally unbalanced. The hotel arranged transport with a driver who was supposed to be bilingual but didn't speak any English. She showed up late. When I critiqued this, the owner sarcastically said "being met at the plane is a service for diplomats." I'm not ridiculous. I know that my transport cannot meet me at the plane. But it should be on time. At this price point, there are nicer hotels in the Manuel Antonio area.

This hotel had such a nice gesture of a refreshing fruit smoothie upon check in and a welcoming and friendly staff the entire stay. The resort was very thoughtful when we went for excursions and helped us with everything. I am definitely staying here again if I go back to Costa Rica.
5.0 / 5.0
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Gaia. The property is just beautiful with lush green colors, blooms, and the sound of Macaws flying though the trees. It is set in a very private uphill area, with views of the ocean and mountains. The pool overlooks a similar landscape and you will feel so relaxed and in awe of the beauty. The staff was so polite and friendly. Michael, Nelson, Manefred, Marcos , Gustavo, Abraham, and Clarence made our stay there extra special. Pedro, our taxi driver was also wonderful. Be sure to find a sloth. This was an amazingly relaxing and absolutely enjoyable experience. Thank you to everyone at Gaia for making our visit to Manuel Antonio unforgettable. Pura Vida!
