Gorgeous property, felt like luxury in the middle of the jungle. Our room was great - the shower is nice & gives you the option to open the sliding window & look at nature while you shower. We are not usually pool users but we loved the pools at Gaia & used them everyday. The drinks & food were above average & all of the staff were exceptional - patient & kind to us, remembering my husband & I by name. The hotel offers a free tour by the Macaw reserve & through the forest with Clarence - what a lovely guide & experience! The transportation to & from your room is via golf cart - this was no issue but something to be aware of. Overall a wonderful experience - would stay again in a heartbeat.

Nice boutique hotel

Loved the welcome drink & property orientation. On-site food was fine although cocktails were kind of weird. Room was nice - the shower was amazing. Pool was teeny and difficult to walk around (must step across decorative waterfall). Extremely steep paths all around the property - not for anyone with any mobility issues. Really appreciated the shuttle to Manuel Antonio. Staff was friendly.

This was one of the most incredible and beautiful properties i have ever stayed at. It was so private and my family stayed in the 2 BR villa which was like a mini house. The staff was incredibly friendly, you are assigned a concierge to help with everything and it was truly perfect.

Great property, great staff, Jose was our concierge. He was excellent. Johnny was helpful at the pool and Ricardo did a great job in the restaurant. Staff pointed some amazing animals for us and we saw beautiful views of macaws and sloths. Clarence’s tour of the property was incredible and extremely informative.
