Parador Nature Resort and Spa

The whole resort was amazing. From check in to check out all the team members were so kind and welcoming. The rooms were great! So many animal sightings. It was an amazing stay. I definitely would stay again.

Absolutely fantastic stay! Parador is incredible and was absolutely perfect for our family of 4. From the room to the pool area to the grounds, we only have the most positive things to say. The included breakfast buffet was also amazing, with a huge variety and everything was tasty and plentiful. I have a severe dairy allergy and often have a hard time with finding breakfast options. Deimer went above and beyond to make sure I had Gallo Pinto (made special without butter) every morning. He genuinely cared that I enough to eat and had options other than fruit. Everyone was very friendly, but he really is exceptional. 10/10–would stay again in a heartbeat. It’s worth it.

We stayed at the Parador Nature Resort & Spa and we loved it! It is a beautiful family friendly resort with stunning decoration, has amazing pools with the Pacific Ocean view, delicious food, excellent service, and incredible wildlife all around the property. The highlight of our staying was that a white-faced monkey broke into our room! Definitely a story we’ll be telling for years.

We loved the resort, the staff were phenomenal and so friendly. The resort was top notch l, we loved the pool and monkey trail. The view from the restaurant was unbelievable. We loved watching the monkeys and looking for sloths. We would come here again !

The location, facilities, scenic views & wildlife.

The cost of the pool bar snacks. Within the first hour of arrival & having viewed the menu we were surprised at their cost. As a result we decided to eat out at restaurants rather than at the Parador restaurants assuming their menus would also be expensive.

I’m so glad I picked this resort to stay at. The property is beautiful and well integrated with the surrounding nature. Amazing views. So many animals everywhere you look. We saw sloths, monkeys, iguanas, toucans, frogs, and parrots literally every day during our stay. The staff is super nice and they all spoke English very well. The shuttle service is convenient. The breakfast is amazing. All good coming out of the kitchen for lunch and dinner was top notch. I did not expect the menu to be so creative and excellent. The room was fine. Mattresses were a little firm for my taste and I like a firm mattress. They are very firm. The air conditioner functions very well which was always great to come back to after spending all day in the heat. There were more amenities than we got around to. There’s even a library and pool table above the restaurant that’s kind of hidden. Mini golf, multiple play rooms for kids, spa, pickleball court, hiking trail. The pool is great and has an amazing view. My only complaint is the shuttle service from the hotel is overpriced. They charge $360 each way. Other shuttle service companies charge $180-220.

Service was excellent. The place is extremely clean, they valued every one of our requests and made sure we had a special trip.

Had a wonderful time at the Parador Resort!! Everyone was so friendly and helpful to make sure you have the best experience. The resort is beautiful- we saw lots of wildlife each day walking the paths- monkeys, sloths, iguanas, crabs, and more!! Fun to watch the monkeys play right in front of you!! Breakfast buffet was excellent with lots of options. We ate at each restaurant and were very good as well. We took shuttle to manual antonio park-saw more wildlife at resort than we did at park but really enjoyed the flora and scenery(in the rain). Beds comfortable and rooms quiet. Highly recommend this resort if visiting Costa Rica!!
