We really enjoyed our stay here for a few days in May. The rooms were nice and spacious as well as clean not to mention an awesome porch to enjoy the wildlife. We actually saw more wildlife and monkeys at the hotel than we did in the national park. Relaxed environment and felt like we were staying in the forest.... More

This is a nice resort, with a great setting and accommodating staff. There are no elevators, so if you have a problem climbing stairs, this is not the place for you. Our major disappointment was no reliable Internet service in our room. As a result, on one occasion I left the room to get Internet service in the restaurant because... More

Location: Byblos is centrally located in Manuel Antonio, with beautiful grounds that are fun to explore. A variety of great restaurants are located within a 15 minute walking radius, including a tasty open air restaurant overlooking the ocean just across the street. It is NOT at the national park. As with most people, you will likely be taking a tour... More

When we arrived the monkeys were playing on the roof of the restaurant, which was a good start. We have some less good experiences too; - Our coffee mugs in the room where dirty and contained mold. When we complained at the reception to ask for new mugs, the guy at the reception got me some new mugs but with... More

I have stayed a few different places in Manuel Antonio over the past several years. I thought I would try something a bit different. Byblos has the real jungle atmosphere even though I could hear laughing and loud music from the sports bar which was not too far away. It did not really bother me too much since I enjoy... More

Breakfasts were good Costa Rican fare but didn't try other meals. Liked our balcony overlooking the water. Wish the beach was closer (walking distance). Tiny little casino that opens at night(blackjack,... More

we spent 3 nites in April at Byblos. One look at our dark little room rite next to the bar and we were reaching for our wallets to upgrade to the bungalows - best move of our trip. The privacy of the cabins (you don't hear the sports bar racket much) - your own private balcony - the "feel" of... More

We visited the Byblos the second week of February. We were there for 4 nights. The hotel is well located. You can walk to the beach by a small and steep gravel road on the other side of the street or you can take the public bus in front of the hotel and within 5-10 minutes you will arrive at... More

If you want to watch sports when you're in Manuel Antonio, Byblos has the best sports bar. It has multiple screens with several games going on at once at times. The locals voted it "Best Sports Bar" and it's where they go to watch their favorite teams.
