Overview

Immerse yourself in the magic of Si Como No Resort Spa and Wildlife Refuge, nestled within a lush rainforest-covered hillside overlooking the breathtaking Pacific coast. Located in Manuel Antonio, this eco-friendly resort offers an unparalleled experience for nature enthusiasts. Si Como No serves as the perfect launchpad for exploring the stunning beaches and the renowned national park that define this region. Resort amenities abound, featuring exquisite restaurants and bars, a refreshing swimming pool, a rejuvenating spa, enchanting tropical gardens, scenic trails, a private movie theater, and WiFi in select public areas.

While most hotels and resorts in Manuel Antonio perch atop the hills, ensuring pristine and picturesque beaches, this also means slightly limited accessibility. Recognizing this, Si Como No Resort extends a complimentary scheduled shuttle service to transport guests to the beach area. At the end of this pristine beach lies the national park, providing vital habitat for a plethora of rare and exotic animal species.

Manuel Antonio offers a myriad of eco-tourism activities for adventurers. Embark on a romantic catamaran cruise or opt for a thrilling ocean kayaking adventure, both offering breathtaking views of the Central Pacific coastline and nearby islands. Explore the Damas Island Estuary on a riverboat safari to encounter crocodiles, monkeys, and anteaters. Visit Manuel Antonio National Park to see playful monkeys and cute sloths. For those seeking an adrenaline rush, ziplining, whitewater rafting, and canyoneering are at your fingertips. These fantastic adventures are just a glimpse of the many tours and activities available in the Manuel Antonio area.

The Si Como No property is home to the Greentique Wildlife Refuge & Butterfly Atrium. For an additional fee, guests can access this reserve to observe a captivating array of flora and fauna up close in their natural habitat—an extraordinary opportunity for wildlife photography.

The resort's surroundings teem with dense jungle and tropical gardens, providing ample opportunities to spot wildlife from both guest rooms and common areas. The swimming pool area is a tropical oasis, complete with a relaxing lounge, swim-up bar, and a thrilling waterslide. Everywhere you turn, vibrant colors and breathtaking jungle and ocean views greet you!

The Harmony Spa at the resort offers an array of rejuvenating treatments, from massages and facials to volcanic mud treatments, wraps, and scrubs. The spa's stress-relieving approach begins with the positive energy you feel upon entering and continues with the use of natural ingredients whenever possible.

When it's time to dine, Si Como No offers two exceptional options. Claro Que Seafood Grill and Wine Bar is an upscale restaurant boasting fresh seafood and an exceptional wine selection, all enjoyed on a jungle-view terrace. Rico Tico Jungle Grill offers a more casual dining experience in a canopied area near the pool, complete with jungle and ocean views and a menu featuring international and Costa Rican cuisine.

Rooms at Si Como No are tastefully adorned with a tropical theme. Each room is equipped with air-conditioning, ceiling fans, a mini-refrigerator, safe box, and a telephone. Superior Rooms boast balconies or terraces with partial ocean and jungle views. Deluxe Rooms offer panoramic ocean and jungle views through large windows and private balconies. Deluxe Plus rooms are twice the size of previous rooms and feature a private balcony with sweeping ocean and rainforest views. The Honeymoon Suite is a hillside sanctuary, offering awe-inspiring ocean and jungle views, a private balcony, a Jacuzzi, a spacious living room, and a luxurious layout. Please refer to the Amenities Section for a comprehensive list of in-room features for each room style.

NOTE: In true tropical style, NONE OF THE ROOMS OFFER TELEVISION. Also, note that this hotel is not within walking distance of the beach.

I was a bit bummed the jacuzzi was broken. But the pool was nice. The hotel staff was awesome. So friendly and helpful.

04/23/2023

The beds were not as comfortable as the previous resort and there was no hot tub at this location.

03/29/2023

The hotel was in a great location, but it’s dated. It needs a refresh. It was clean, but not crisp like we would want a hotel to be. The pool was great though. Kids loved the slide.

02/12/2023

Very beautiful and good hotel and nice stuff.

02/02/2023

The hotel room that we stayed in had a fabulous view but was in the older , dated ,part of the resort ( we were offered a choice of 2 rooms on arrival, one newer but with a partial sea view and the older room with a great view)
The restaurant at the front was very expensive and the food below average. One day we ordered food at the adult pool bar and was served 7 very small potato wedges with a dip for $11 who pays that for 7 chips!

01/10/2023

Outdated

01/03/2023

Loved the view and hotel. Also liked it that it was on main road with easy walks to restaurants

12/10/2022

Fabulous location, lots of birds!

11/07/2022

The room was older and had a few maintenance issues. The bed was very comfortable. The setting in the rain forest was really cool. We saw monkeys from our balcony. We had a nice view. The staff was great.

03/16/2022

Love the location, views, food and staff, love pool with the slide!

02/22/2022

This is a lovely hotel, but it has its quirks. The food was uneven. I had a salad with old wrinkly tomatoes and another that that had smoked trout, not fresh, as described. The breakfast menu is very limited and confusing. Pancakes aren't listed as an option but then I saw them making them and we could get them, which made me wonder what else would they make that was't listed. The bathroom in our room had no ventilation, which means nothing dries in there. We had a room at the lobby level, so we heard a lot of road traffic. Also, there is really nothing within safe walking distance with the way the sidewalks end. It would have been nice to explore the area on foot a bit more, but with kids it didn't seem safe to walk on the side of the road given the driving culture. The kids loved it, though. There is a small movie theater you can reserve. They have hundreds of DVD's or you can log in to Netflix. That was a lot of fun with kids. The waterslide was a big hit. The view is incredible and the local iguanas and monkeys were very entertaining. This hotel had a wedding event the day we were leaving and one restaurant was closed Friday night because of it and then one of the pools was closed all of Saturday. I was glad we were leaving Saturday so we didn't have to deal with the inconvenience. The staff was very friendly and helpful, though. We would probably not stay here again because we would avoid the Manuel Antonio region in general next trip. It's very touristy and expensive compared to the other places we visited.

We expected more from this hotel. The reception staff was OK but not particularly attentive. The hotel has a lot of stairs and it feels like being in a labyrinth. Common areas are nice but our room (which had a very nice view) was outdated (furniture, decor, etc). Breakfast was not very good. Limited choice of food, just a few not so good pastries and fruits (breakfast was fantastic in the other two hotels). Dinner at the same restaurant was very good

01/11/2022

We were disappointed in this resort some because it does not look like the video they show on the website. It facilities were rundown, the beds were not comfortable. The staff was nice but not like our previous report. We did not really like the restaurants but there are several within walking distance. The best part about this resort is the location. It is close to the beach (they do not offer transportation to the beach as we were told). The taxi ride is short and once at the beach there are several restaurants and shops. This would not be my top choice for a resort next time.

11/19/2021

The hotel and our experience was overall great. The hotel room itself felt underwhelming and basic.

07/21/2021

This was one of the best hotels I've stayed in. The rooms were clean and convenient, the hotel grounds were AMAZING and the food was out of this world!!! We didn't want to eat anywhere else in the town.

07/14/2021

Friendly people. View from our room was amazing! Clear views of the Pacific

07/10/2021

This was our family's favorite hotel of the trip! Small enough to feel quaint, but large enough to have two restaurants and two pools! The room was great and the view stunning!!!

07/01/2021

The hotel is a little outdated. The shower mildew and loose faucets. But the property was beautiful and the staff was amazing! Best service I’ve ever had. It was definitely a family resort. We felt at home and comfortable at the pool and swim up bar. The servers took time to get to know us and were very friendly.

04/28/2021

Monkeys viewing from the room deck made the place great. Staff was really attentive and helpful.Too bad only the butterfly exhibit was open in the park across the street.

01/07/2021

We loved this hotel! The pool and slide are a blast. The views are amazing as well as the food and drinks by pool bar. The staff couldn’t have been more accommodating! We had a safe and early check in, and had to check out at 4am which they had security ready and waiting for us to assist and even provided breakfast for the road.

03/05/2020

Fun hotel with lots of wildlife, amazing views, free shuttle to the beach/National Park area, and friendly employees. Would definitely stay here again.

02/06/2020

The setting, gardens, staff and food were all excell3n5.

01/01/2020

Beautiful resort. Loved it!

12/29/2019

again this hotel and staff was most excellent. the grounds were beautiful. the staff was so patient and nice to our family. the hotel was near restaurants and transportation to the beach and park. the food at rico Tico was the best I had the whole trip

12/25/2019

beautiful views ;

12/14/2019

Old hotel. Great views. Our room balcony was close to the restaurant and we could get all the smell and noise which wasn't pleasant. There are two restaurants. The seafood restaurant is pretty good but I found the other one which also serves breakfast as rather disappointing. Reception staff were very nice. Also great that there was a shuttle to and from the beach.

08/13/2019

Room was old and not as modern as I would’ve expected. Bathrooms and kitchen furnishing was average at best

08/03/2019

Staff very friendly, great views of the sea. The beach is a 25 minute walk away but there is a shuttle down to the crowded part of the beach. They have a butterfly cage across the road which is worth a visit.

07/22/2019

The staff was awesome, and the hotel location was beautiful with close access to nearby shops and restaurants. This resort lacked a bit in fit and finish compared to Arenal Springs, but the friendly staff, convenient location, and beautiful views made it well worth the stay here.

06/02/2019

Breakfast is great.

04/13/2019

The staff was great, especially Allen. Very helpful and courteous.

04/01/2019

Amazing! Perfect!

03/27/2019

Beautiful view from our room. I wish we stayed here a few more days.

02/08/2019

Loved the natural environment and views!

02/06/2019

My wife and I loved every second of being in Si Como No! The grounds were beautiful and the staff was incredibly helpful. It was also nice having transportation to the beach.

01/29/2019

Our room was nice and spacious but the furniture is very dated. The chairs on our balcony were old and scratchy to sit on. Breakfast that was included was very good.

01/24/2019

staff was very helpful. Food in the restaurant was good.

12/28/2018

Ronald was fantastic. He really made our trip.

12/27/2018

Beautiful hotel. Loved it

12/10/2018

The room looked a little run down/outdated and like it needed a little TLC. The painting hanging on the wall was peeling and hanging down from the frame. The lock on the sliding patio door was falling off and there were huge gaps around the main door frame, so lots of light came in at night. Overall not a bad experience, but I would probably not stay here again.

11/13/2017

The hotel was beautiful and the staff were very friendly. We enjoyed seeing monkeys and lizards right on the hotel grounds.

07/15/2017

Staff here super friendly & this resort was awesome for running from! Quite a workout with the elevation changes!

07/11/2017

Food was pricey and the quality was only average

04/20/2017

Great view, great service and excellent stay!

02/24/2017

Great hillside hotel (lots of stairs) with a nice swim up pool bar and theater. Our room smelled musty but was very clean. Staff was very helpful in recommending nearby restaurants.

02/23/2017

Too many steps to the dining rooms and pools. But the place was beautiful.

02/18/2017

This hotel is out dated. Keys for hotel rooms??? Not a lot of outlets. Our room was low on property and we had barely a view of ocean. Music from neighboring hotel was problematic for special needs son. Staff very accommodating, friendly, went above and beyond to see to our comfort.

01/23/2017

Went the extra mile when setting up guides and cooking our catch from the charter boat at very reasonable price.

01/03/2017

Loved it

12/22/2016

The adult pool had no view and was not very nice. The family pool was much better but crowded.

11/21/2016

Outstanding service and great food! We loved the views and access to the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

08/08/2016

Staff were fantastic but the rooms were a little disappointing, old décor and in need of refurbishment.

07/12/2016

Pool chairs were a bit uncomfortable but overall this was an amazing experience. Staff was fantastic!

06/27/2016

Very friendly staff. It was a beautiful and fun hotel.

06/16/2016

BEST view of our trip.

05/25/2016

Nice rooms and beautiful views. Also saw tropical birds and animals throughout the resort. The only thing missing was room service to deliver food.

04/28/2016

An exceptional place. Shuttle to downtown was very convenient!

04/22/2016

Lobby staff was very helpful and moved our room (to a better view). Pool bartender was very helpful and very fun to hang out with. Views were incredible everywhere!

04/05/2016

The hotel was beautiful. We had a wonderful time here.

04/01/2016

breakfast was lacking in options and quality. accommodations were nice

03/27/2016

We loved this hotel. It was very relaxing and the down time is just what we needed. It is very beautiful and we enjoyed the staff and the pool and the spa!

03/21/2016

Fabulous resort. Just loved it.

03/15/2016

Fantastic place

03/04/2016

We paid extra for this hotel and we were disappointed. We were given a room overlooking the lobby and asked to move which they accommodated. The beds were not made properly and the new room was very far away from the lobby. They offered a shuttle from the hotel to the beach but it ran on an extremely limited schedule including not running from 11am to 3 pm the hottest time of the day which someone would probably want to go back to the room like myself. Instead I had to pay for a cab.

02/16/2016

Not as luxurious as the first location. We had hoped it would be a bit easier to get to the beach. The location is good with several nearby restaurants.

02/14/2016

Beautiful hotel and rooms with gorgeous views of the ocean. The staff were all very friendly and happy to help with any questions / requests. Not having TVs in the rooms was a great idea...... loved the place.

02/13/2016

loved it and cannot wait to go back!

02/11/2016

Beautiful! The staff was so attentive and friendly from the front desk to the servers in the restaurant. The rooms were spotless and very comfortable. The food was excellent. We ate at both restaurants most nights, even though there were other good places in walking distance. This place was a gem.

02/10/2016

Perfect hotel for the kids. Loved the idea you can walk across the street to the park tour.

01/25/2016

It was our least favorite of the three accommodations, but definitely adequate.

01/23/2016

The hotel was beautiful but the demographic was a little old. A lot of retirees.

01/21/2016

No TV was a bummer

01/19/2016

Beautiful view, nice pool areas, staff was super friendly. Bathrooms may need to be updated but still really enjoyed the hotel. The location was great!

01/15/2016

A very nice hotel. It is nice that there is an adult and a seperate family pools. Good breakfast and restaurants were good. Supermarket up the street as well a falafel restaraunt. No reservations recommending Si Como No

01/03/2016

One of the best hotel resort i have ever stayed and experienced.

01/01/2016

Loved the swim up bars and pool service. Very good food at the restaurants. We had a great room. Loved the butterfly enclosure they give you access to across the street.

12/28/2015

Fabulous view from room, transport to beach was great, breakfast amazing

12/04/2015

This was a nice and comfortable hotel. Typically the staff was on point except for our experience with them breaking down an event over our room after midnight. Judging from what we say on our travels - we felt fortunate to stay in what looked like the nicest available hotel in the area.

11/17/2015

Missed not having a TV but on the plus side were able to walk to other venues

08/09/2015

because of extensive rain, we had to eat at the hotel often. the food was mediocre

07/31/2015

No one greeted us at the van. Had to slog our luggage into the hotel ourselves. Not a big deal, just not expected Room was basic, view was lovely.

07/30/2015

The hotel staff were very friendly. The grounds of this hotel were breath taking.

06/29/2015

The hotel was again, beautiful and we loved the view from our room. The staff was wonderful and the air conditioning worked very well. We loved the on-site restaurant. The hotel did have a private movie theater but they planned only PG-rated movies at 8:00 It would have been better for the guests if two movies were offered; a kid movie at 7:00 and a PG-13 movie at 9:00. There were quite a few adults without children watching Wall-E because sunset was fairly early and there was little to do at night on-site.

05/03/2015

The hotel is old and needs upgrades but it was awesome just sitting on the back porch watching the wild life and the views. Leo and his Latin music made it a memorable experience.

04/10/2015

Loved this place. We were greeted by a troop of monkeys when we arrived. Kids loved the pool and the view was fantastic.

03/13/2015

It was a bit more luxurious than what I expected...and also more expensive. If I had to do it again, I would ask for a somewhat less fancy place...although it was nice!

03/10/2015

This is a really nice resort. We had a breath taking view of the ocean. The bird watching from the balcony in the morning was fantastic. The staff was incredibly attentive whenever we needed anything. A great place for families to stay in Manuel Antonio.

03/06/2015

Gorgeous hotel and very courteous staff. Food was great with lots of options nearby.

02/15/2015

The views are amazing. The resort feels super premium and the pool was a great place to relax. The staff was very friendly and they offer a free shuttle to the beach, which was a pleasant surprise. The morning breakfast view was the best we had the entire vacation. The two restaurants offered great food and quick bites in the pool bar. We would have loved to extend our stay.

01/28/2015

Two restaurants onsite provided tasty food and prices were not excessive. Staff was not too engaging.

12/21/2014

Absolutely gorgeous view from the hotel & very close to beach.
