Houseboats in Costa Rica

"We stayed at Shana for 6 nights. The staff of the hotel is amazing and very hospitable, they show that they love their jobs (like the back of their t-shirts says). Beginning with the front staff, Kevin and Katherine who were so nice. The bar staff, especially Warner who was super helpful and provided excellent service. The restaurant wait staff, Priscila and Lester were very accommodating and awesome. We met the chefs, Allan and Irwin. Allan came to our table to ask if the food was good, it was delicious. That was very special. Steven at the bar was very nice and Andrey was very nice too. The breakfast staff, Javier, Edgar and Lisandro were very nice and eager to assist with anything we needed. Lastly, Jairo who drives he golf cart was very generous and helpful. Overall, our stay was great mainly because of the wonderful staff and their eagerness to make sure we had everything we needed/wanted. I would recommend Shana by the beach as a great place to stay in the Quepos area. "

"Friendly staff."

"Love the resort, especially the pool areas. Very kid friendly, lots of activities and the walking distance to the beach! Also the staff was very friendly, prompt and great service! Future goers please consider tipping staff, these locals work hard and depend on your appreciation for that! Very friendly and genuine "

"Stayed at this hotel because we had an early flight out next morning. Checked, and this Courtyard is the closest hotel to SJO. 4am shuttle was early and ready to go. So transport to airport was a breeze. Staff were super friendly. Clean and well managed. Very nice room for the price. We were ready to relax and enjoyed the pool on 2nd floor. Will definitely stay there again. "

"Good location, it’s a very nice hotel and it’s collected to the mall. "

"My family had a very nice stay at this resort. The breakfast was great. The kids and adults enjoyed the many cool water and warm/ hot water pools. Love the easy access to the food and drinks right at swim up bar/ restaurant. "

"Great place to stay before catching a flight. "

"Amazing location for a tropical resort vacation. Lots of energy and buzzy tourist vibe in only the best way. The hotel offers waterfront rooms, and open air amenities everywhere you turn. It was perfect. Staff, especially at the guided tours counter were exceptional and showed such warm interest in us and our experience. We felt like family! We definitely will return! "

"The property was beautiful and clean. The staff were exceptional and friendly. The views were spectacular. The wildlife stole the show. Viewing sloths, monkeys, and birds was a daily occurrence! The resort is far from the airport and getting to the beaches was a minor inconvenience as the hike to the bay-side beach was steep and a short shuttle is required for a trip to Manuel Antonio. What the resort lacked in beach access, however, it more than made up for in amenities, scenery, customer service and dining options! Parador is a fantastic hotel and resort and I definitely recommend to anyone! "
