Hotel Parador
Enthroned atop a majestic bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean and surrounded by 400 acres of lush tropical rainforest, Hotel Parador is located in a remote area of Manuel Antonio within minutes of Manuel Antonio National Park. It’s elegant Mediterranean – style architecture, modeled after the Traditional Spanish Paradores and quaint European “boutique hotels”, has today made the resort one of a kind. It was built in 1995 and recently completed in 2004 with 108 rooms and suites.
The lush gardens and rainforest on the 12 acre site provide habitat for wildlife such as white-faced and titi-monkeys, sloths, iguanas, coatimundis, and many species of birds. Relax on the beautiful white-sand beaches or take in activities such as hikes in the national park, ocean and river kayaking, sport fishing, white water rafting, mangrove tours, and beach combing. A quiet adults-only pool is a nice compliment to the larger pool for families. Therapeutic spa services are available on request.
