Gaia Hotel & Reserve- Adults Only

Gaia is located on a hill with incredible views from the bar/ restaurant. Highly recommend watching the sunset from the restaurant. It was amazing! Also, the private reserve is incredible. We did the free tour run by Juan and it was honestly better than any of the paid tours we did in the national parks. The story behind the reserve and the owner Boris, who very kindly greeted us, is also very inspiring. Couldn’t recommend it more. Last but not least, the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful and made us feel so welcome. Sirit and Nancy at reception are the best. They made our stay so comfortable by sorting out all our requests/ questions and even had a little package of food ready for us when we left to drive to our next destination. The buggy staff were also so helpful taking us around the property and providing towels when we went to the beach. An added bonus is the free shuttle to Manuel Antonio.

There was some machinery like a generator running near the room at night so it was a bit noisy. Would be nice to have a kettle in the room as the room had tea bags but no hot water for the tea.

Didnt realize there was a tour of the property

Surrounded by nature monkeys sloths macaws etc right outside your room...... incredible views from restaurant great pools and attentive staff and owner.

Food is a bit hit and miss but owner was happy to replace or exchange or not charge for anything we didn't think was perfect. To be fair though you are not there for the food...... it's the natural beauty that's the focus.
