The location, property, amenities and staff was wonderful.
The room had a musty smell. To be expected considering the resort is on a hill side jungle.
This is our second time staying at Makanda, the hotel itself is breath taking! The hotel staff is so helpful and incredible. The rooms are extremely comfortable and the architecture is lovely! Loved waking up to monkeys outside of our room!
Food and drinks are very expensive for what you get. $300 dinners and leaving still hungry.
We enjoyed everything! Staff was great, kind and really helpful. The room, the hotel itself was gorgeous. We saw more animals in the hotel’s surrounding than in Manuel Antonio. Pool area chic and relaxing.
Stunning grounds, access to the beach, pool areas and rooms. Creative luxurious bedroom bathroom and common areas. Mostly delightful staff and being taken around by buggy's was helpful given the steep gradients
Reception staff always busy. Watch out for a last-minute mini-bar scam - we settled the bill to then be informed that we taken whiskey (the most expensive!) and a bottle of Evian water, we hadn't touched the minibar. However we'd returned to the room just before check out time and saw the bottles had been removed from the minibar and were left on a glass table which looked strange. We argued and t...Read more
The staff was very attentive and kind. Food in the restaurant was delicious. The room was extremely comfortable and spacious. Loved all the pools. We enjoyed the beach. The location of the hotel is magical you feel like being up in the tree tops. We observed 3 of the 4 types of monkeys playing around, so fun. We thought the DJ was a fun event.
We visited during the rainy season. Because of the steep decline of the slippery terrain (safety reasons) we had to be transported everywhere. That was a smooth and fantastic service with friendly drivers. We just wished that we could have been more physically active during our stay.
Location and service was oustanding. The view was breathtaking. Perfect spot for a relaxing week
The room was wonderful, the staff helpful and exceptional, and the private beach was incredible, such an unforgettable highlight.
Nothing not to like. Would prefer some traditional dishes on offer, or South American fare.
The whole environment was simply fabulous! The room, our terrace, the pools, the service and the food... everything was just perfect. Even nature was on our side with a sloth on the premises and a whale jumping in the distance.!! Walking around can be a challenge due to steep walk ways. But the Hotel is offering internal transport services.
Amazing place where we ended our honeymoon and are already planning on an anniversary holiday back! The place is incredible, so perfectly designed to fit with its surroundings. The staff were amazing, the food incredible and facilities and views a dream. What a place…
We were lucky with our room but some rooms were further down and it’s all on a hill…however a quick call to reception and a golf buggy will pick you up so no problem! Also it rained so can confirm that the hills are perfectly safe when wet!
