We stayed here 3 nights and loved every moment we had there. It is so charming. They have an excellent helpful staff. The rooms were clean and cozy. They have a trail leading into the forest which we walked. We saw monkeys, iguanas, turles, a coati, and lots of birds. It is a very quite and peaceful place to stay.

I stayed at La Forests with my two adult daughters and we loved this hotel. The staff was extremely helpful. Food and service at the restaurant was great. The trails were beautiful. We saw Howler and Squirrel Monkeys each day just outside our room. We will definitely return to this hotel.

We were only in town for 2 days to check out Manuel Antionio and decided to stay here. This place is so beautiful, i wish we had more time there. There were serene views, spacious rooms, a lovely pool, and delicious food.

We barely had a chance to check out the trails in the back, so try to crave out some time to explore. We were only out there for a bit when someone came over and pointed out some white face squirrel monkeys…amazing experience. If you do go on the trails, wear covered shoes –my friend got bit by ants, but she was unknowingly standing on their home
FYI, Breakfast is huge- it defiantly fueled us up for our day trip!! Also, they have a shuttle to town and to Manuel Antionio that runs at certain times.

La Foresta is an utterly unique place. Close to Manuel Antonio National Park, but far from the "tourist zone" of area hotels, it is situated next to a wild jungle full of awesome (and surprisingly challenging) trails and awe-inspiring wildlife. The grounds are beautifully-planted, the breakfasts were lovely and our one dinner on the premises (mahi mahi) was fabulous. The place is very quiet and the staff are polite and eager to make sure you have a top-notch stay. We also tried the nighttime zipline tour which terminates on the hotel grounds (the run ziplines in the day too) -- a truly memorable experience! We'll be back!!
