The hotel is small and intimate. It's actually a boutique hotel with a beautiful decoration. The rooms are big, super clean and well maintained with a killer air-condition. A good breakfast is served on the porch facing the jungle and every morning different kind of monkeys came to visit us. The hotel staff is amazingly friendly and helpful, especially Havier... More

Great staff, very welcoming. Javier was very kind and obliging. Huge rooms with comfortable bed and sheets. Very pretty pool area with friendly monkeys :) The breakfast was the best we had in Costa Rica. Very reasonable price.

I stayed at Hotel Plaza Yara for 2 nights last week. Fantastic property - huge rooms and a spacious balcony where we could watch squirrel monkeys playing in the lush forest behind the hotel. The owner is a talented artist and world traveler and his works are on display not only in the art gallery on the property but throughout... More

My husband and I spent the week at Plaza Yara with another couple. We could not have picked a better place to spend our vacation in Costa Rica. The hotel is located between Quepos and Manuel Antonio which worked out to be great for us. The staff was very informative! The restaurants and excursion recommendations were over the top(we will...

I am living and working in San Jose for one year and enjoy spending my week-ends exploring different places in Costa Rica. My wife suggested Manuel Antonio and we decided to try our luck without a reservation and head to the Coast. We drove by Hotel Plaza Yara and decided to stop and ask about availability. The check -in is... More

Rooms are quite nice, large and well equipped and the view back into the forest is lovely. However the service was nothing special at all. Check in and greeting was all business and no warmth at all. The rest of our stay staff kept to themselves and displayed no real interest, warmth or concern for guests - a deal breaker... More

My 23 year old daughter and I spent a couple nights in early April at Hotel Plaza Yara and had a great experience! We were greeted by Jonathan and he was very kind and helpful. Our room was very large with comfortable beds and we had a nice balcony where we could relax and enjoy the view. We had a... More

We stayed at Hotel Plaza Yara while in Manuel Antonio. There is no doubt, it is the best place for the price. Once we got to the hotel, I couldn't believe how nice it was for the price. The guys who worked there were so helpful. They held our bags for us and gave us towels to go to the... More

Traveled here with 3 male friends and was a little disappointed when we arrived. Seemed like an art gallery and that we were the only people there. No beach in sight. We were wrong. The rooms were huge and comfortable. The staff was excellent. The beach is right down the street. Johnathan at the front desk sorted us right out.... More
