Super convenient location, around shops and restaurants. Very friendly. Loved seeing monkeys off of my balcony and the room was very spacious.
allison, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Super quiet environment. Lots of nature. Great location between Manuel and the town. Denny and Paula were super helpful. Breakfast every morning is nice because you’re busy doing excursions and it helps with the cost. We had a great and safe experience. Slight plumbing issue but the villa resolved it immediately.

Can’t say enough about this property. The staff, the pool, the room, the view. were all wonderful. A pair of nesting macaws outside our door was the cherry on top.

This hotel was wonderful with a great view and plenty of wildlife. Paula was extremely helpful, friendly, and hospitable. We loved our stay here! Also, the night-guard takes his job seriously and we felt very safe here.

Great choice if you want to see jungle wildlife right from the Villas . Units and property very well maintained, units are large and has everything you need for the stay.. Being in the jungle and we had some rain did bring the insects around ..
Martha, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This property is absolutely gorgeous. The pool area is beautifully landscaped and feels like a little tropical oasis. We were able to see so many monkeys in the trees and it was fun to watch them with the other travellers. Our unit had a big balcony with a hammock to relax and enjoy a distant ocean view. The desk and bar staff were so friendly and made everything easy. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely come back!

Absolutely fantastic place for independent travelers who want a low key experience in Manuel Antonio. Amazing views, wildlife with spacious balconies to take it all in. Loved it. Thanks to Dennis and the rest of the staff for a great visit! We’ll be back!

Nikki, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful stay at Villas Nicolas. The property is conveniently located on the Main Street and close to restaurants. Our room was very nice and had a lovely view of both the jungle and sea. We were able to see monkeys and birds in the morning and it was truly magical. The Breakfast is delicious and the general layout and landscaping of the property makes you think you’re in an oasis. We will definitely be back!

Awesome!!!
Piotr, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful grounds with many plants and we saw so many animals on the property!! Macaws living in one of the trees for years, a sloth was living right outside our balcony and many monkeys constantly traveling through. Pool was nice. Nice to have breakfast included. Just note some rooms have many stairs so probably not great for some older people.
catrina, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

There simply are no words to explain how absolutely wonderful of a place Villas Nicolás is. Dennis and the other staff members are so accommodating. We stayed in a lovely unit with a balcony. There were toucans, monkeys and so many birds we could enjoy from our balcony. Great kitchen area for cooking. The pool was heaven. If there were more and 5 stars available for a rating I would give it to Villas Nicolás.
Della, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Avoid, Avoid, Avoid!

We stayed at Hotel Nicolás and had one of the worst hotel experiences we’ve ever had. Breakfast was advertised as a “typical Tico breakfast” (gallo pinto, eggs, cheese, natilla, fruit, plantains, tortillas). In reality, it was just gallo pinto, eggs, tortillas, and fruit—we had to supplement daily. Their salt and pepper shakers even had spiders inside. The man at check-in reeks of smoke, acts polite, but provides zero customer service. Guests aren’t allowed to use the pool unless staying overnight. I asked to pay a fee or add my friend to our room (capacity is 3, we were only 2) but was told it’s “impossible” to adjust reservations after booking. Rooms don’t match the website photos—quality varies wildly. Our first had broken rock-hard beds and a broken AC. We were moved, and though the new room had AC, the beds were still miserable. Towels are rationed: pool towels only 9–5, no using room towels or taking them to the beach, or you’re fined. The owner’s dogs bark, growl, and jump on guests. A late checkout wasn’t allowed, even though the hotel was nearly empty. Sleeping in past 5am is impossible because most windows have no curtains or just see-through fabric. To top it off, I left two small night lights and returned the next day—suddenly they’d “never seen them.” Thieves. I’ve stayed at five properties in Manuel Antonio and never once been disappointed—until now. This place is dishonest, uncomfortable, and hostile to guests. Do yourself a favor: avoid at all costs.

10/10 Exceptional

It felt like you are truly in the rainforest. We had monkeys play a few meters from us, beautiful parrots nearby. Amazing ocean views, friendly staff, highly recommended. A few nitpicks: queen size bed, no TV (but we didn’t miss it), and the hotel jacuzzi was not working (had no hot water). Overall well worth it. The location is great, and the villas are very stylishly decorated

10/10 Exceptional

Great little spot

This place was like living in the jungle! We were greeted by monkeys and macaws as we checked in. The steps down to our place (5) was like walking deeper into the garden of Eden. We were welcomed by a huge sloth outside our balcony that we watched for most of the afternoon while we unpacked. Location is great, walking distance to everything. Dennis is a great host. Pool is beautiful, and breakfast was nice.
