What an amazing place!!!! My husband and i absolutely loved everything about this property from the friendliness of the staff, amazing drinks and bartenders, the gorgeous pool and views, the lush flora and fauna, its within walking distance to so many restaurants, and the abundance of wildlife. We saw so many monkeys on site which was wonderful given the park was closed because of the bad weather. We stayed in the sunrise ocean view room and loved waking up to that amazing view. My only complaint is we didn’t stay long enough. We will definitely stay here again when we return to CR.

I like staying in nice places. Here is my one complaint before I tell you how amazing this place and trip was. I wish I had a table and chair in the room… it’s only downfall I could think of. Lol LaMariposa was even beyond what I hoped it would be. Went with one of my best friends and we saw more wildlife on their property than anywhere. Sloths, 2 kinds of monkeys, beautiful flora and fauna. The view is the most beautiful view I’ve ever seen. The staff…. Alan at the desk immediately found me a chiropractor as my herniated disc decided to act up. Louis and Oscar were wonderful, too. Kendall my swim up bartender made the best pina colada and Diego, Mike, Gianfranco and Greg serving our delicious breakfasts were wonderful! You will see bugs… maybe 1 or two in your room at a point in your visit( you are in the tropics). I live in New Orleans… doesn’t matter how clean or upscale a place is… you are going to see a big here and there. No big deal. Suck it up! It’s Costa Rica! The infinity swim up bar, the pools, the grounds, the room, the town you just walk down a small hill too( beware though… take a bus or a taxi to beach if you can’t handle hills). We walked it and were fine but it’s a windy steep hill Road going to beach. The people are lovely, the food delicious, shopping cute and fun. If you can splurge get one of the rooms with a hot tub on its balcony. I don’t know how anyone could find fault here. It was a dream vacation! Thank you!!!!!

DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL. Horrible customer service! We had a family emergency and had to cancel/reschedule our vacation. We tried speaking to the hotel managers to explain our unfortunate ordeal where a member of our immediate family had become ill the day before we were expected to arrive and they showed absolutely no empathy and refused to allow us to rebook our vacation. The airline completely understood and gave us a refund, whereas La Mariposa Hotel refused even a credit to allow us to come in a few weeks or months. We tried speaking with ownership, who they claimed made this policy, but refused to put us in touch with them. Our kids are heartbroken. Why would anyone want to do business with such a cold and heartless establishment?!

I recently stayed at Hotel Mariosa, and it was a perfect experience from start to finish. The hotel itself is immaculate, with beautiful decor and comfortable accommodations. What truly made my stay exceptional was the outstanding service provided by Gregory at the Papillon restaurant. He went above and beyond to ensure every need was met, making me feel truly valued as a guest. His attention to detail and friendly demeanor made my dining experiences unforgettable. A special mention also goes to Dayana, who prepares the best omelets during breakfast. Her skill and dedication made each morning a delightful start to the day. I highly recommend Hotel Mariosa and especially commend Gregory at the Papillon restaurant and Dayana for making my stay so memorable.

Everything was great about this hotel, including what really seems to be the best view in the area. I did find the restaurant to be very overpriced for the quality of the food but I think you’re paying for the view. The pool was subpar for sure. The hot tub was the same same temperature as the pool. Overall the stay was really nice and the people were fantastic but I would definitely suggest them improving the pool for those days you might want to hang for a bit at the hotel.
