Manzanillo Hotel Guide - Widecast Sea Turtle Conservation hotels in Manzanillo, Costa Rica.

"Beautiful "

"Location. Price. Service. Excellent."

"We had a short trip (2 nights) and wish it was longer. The house (2 bed 1 bath) was stunning and clean. The whole property was breathtaking. The host/tour guide (Alex) was the most hospitable and kind guide. He works at the property to welcome guests and facilitate adventures. He took us and another couple to the Cloud Forest, we went to lunch at a local spot and he showed us a lot of history. He was such a pleasure!"

"Very nice accommodations and communication with the property manager. "

"Amazing staff - very attentive from check in to check out! That together with the delicious food at the restaurant, comfortable room, spacious pool, and great location by a quiet beach (with hammocks and lounge chairs) means we will be back! Thank you for a lovely stay! Muchas gracias!"

"This is a wonderful, quiet getaway in the cloud forest! We booked a room last minute after our original accommodations didn’t work out and the owners were so accommodating, letting us check in early and taking care of everything (including dinnner!) Our family of 5 had a great time splashing in the pool, watching the rain, and playing with the friendly dog who visited our cabin often. The owners even booked us dinner reservations & a night tour of the Costa Rican wildlife. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful every morning. I can’t say enough great things about El Sol - would highly recommend!"

"Very responsive. Had coffee and coffee maker. A fence and locked gate surrounded the property. Very attractive grounds. The 4:00 AM neighbors dog alarm was an added bonus. Got our day started early."

"Nice hotel with a great pool area. Food and drinks were good too! "

"We had a three day stay at Lumina Valley View Monteverde in April 2025. The house is very spacious, modern and comfortable. It has an amazing gourmet kitchen (love the waterfall style granite countertop!) and a great view with a lovely, vibrant orange sunset. Lovely furnishings and decor. Also ample hot water, AC and strong Wifi. Note that this location is a little far out so not walkable to any amenities. Our host Glenda, who is a native of Monteverde, was amazing. She made our stay comfortable with the little things including some complimentary breakfast items (breads, coffee and jam) and lots of suggestions on what to do and see around the area. There was no driver available, and she took it upon herself to pick us up from La Fortuna and drive us around during our stay, then dropping us all the way in San Jose. If you're looking for quiet, secluded luxury in Costa Rica with a host that really cares about her clients, this is a great experience for you and your family."
