Small hotel with good prices and is excellent if you want to get close to nature. Clean rooms, great restaurant, and the view from the balconies is amazing as is the walk around the property. Unfortunately for us light sleepers, the forest was LOUD at night and the howling monkeys at 3:30 am didn't help. So if you love nature,... more

We stayed here with friends who were previous guests and we were very pleased with the experience. One must remember that even though Manuel Antonio is growing into a pricey little resort, Costa Rica is still a third world country. Tres Banderas is a little gem that offers much for the price (perhaps the lowest in the area). My husband... more

Hotel Las Tres Banderas is an attractive small hotel built on a hillside, and is constructed from high-quality woodwork and tiles. The entrance driveway is very steep which makes entering and exiting a challenging experience. Our room was large enough but was strangely laid out, with a clothes rod over the side of the bed and very limited amount of... more

The owner, Andy, is quite the host and all our plans of... more

I've stayed at the Hotel Las Tres Banderas every year for the last eight years. The hotel is clean, the staff friendly and the value outstanding. Andy is an outstanding host and since I outfit a group and rent the entire hotel every year, I am sure I would have heard complaints from my guests about any "smells" "sagging mattresses"... more

the owner would not turn on the pool pump unless we got into it - it was murky and there were lizards living in it!!! yuck!!! more

The room smelled strongly of deodorizer. The beds were old and sagging. The sheets were old and stained. There was no mattress pad and I could smell urine thru the sheets. The owner/manager mentioned three times about turning off the air conditioning while we were out to save him money. I dont like coming back to my room and waiting... more

We made new freinds at the Tres Banderas. Loved the people and the area. Could have used a new matress on our bed, but everything else was excellent, especially the food! Looking forward to visiting again. more
