Incredible food and view! Also has tapas and affordable lunch. The bar has a sitting area to enjoy the view and there's a lounge with tv.

The view, service and food are amazing. Take a break from humidity and relax. My partner and I had a wonderful evening we started with the happy hour then stayed for dinner. You won't be disappointed. I had the Mahi Mahi yum yum.

We went here twice in our 4 nights here. This place was phenomenal. Amazing service and fantastic food. My order got mixed up the second night, but it was still good so I didn't complain. The waiter, the head waiter, the head chef and the owner all apologized and gave us the meal for free and dessert on the house.... More

Went to La Luna on Sat night for dinner! We had no idea what we were in for. The food was awesome, the service was outstanding and the entertainment was off the charts!

We stayed at another property but ended up eating at La Luna for dinner one night. The meal was perfection. The drinks were amazing. The view was stunning. The service was impeccable. And to top it off, I mentioned to the waiter that I really liked one of the sauces that came with a dish, and five minutes later he... More

I dine out a lot, it does not matter if I'm home or traveling. I've been to Gaia several times and I'm reminded each time why I come back. La Luna not only boasts an incredible menu, the views are breathtaking. Breakfast (which is included with your stay) is an experience in and of itself. Wonderful coffee, a variety of... More

My husband and I recently moved to the Quepos area and have quickly made La Luna at Gaia our go-to spot for happy hour drinks and tapas. You really can't beat the delicious drinks and fancy tapas at this amazing resort. Toss in a great deal (Mojitos for $3.50, Margs for $5, Beer for $2, tapas for $2-5) and you... More

My wife and I recently moved to Manuel Antonio and have been to Gaia several times for both dinner and happy hour. The happy hour has 2-for-1 drinks and tapas that are between $2 and $4 each, which is a pretty good value, especially given the amazing views.

The ceviche and calamari appetizers were wonderful. The chicken pasta and shrimp pasta and chorizo trio were delicious! It was raining so we could not enjoy the sunset but did enjoy listening to some Santana with the guitarist and bongo player. Top notch service all the way. This restaurant does not disappoint!!!
