Why Manuel Antonio? Start with its lush rainforest, beautiful palm-lined beaches, amazing nature and wildlife. Home to both the community of Manuel Antonio and the Manuel Antonio National Park – internationally renowned for its incredible variety of flowering plant life as well as its wealth of wildlife: Three types of monkeys, 2 types of sloths, toucans, scarlet macaws and over 300 other bird species are found there. Gorgeous white-sand beaches ring the park and extend up the palm-studded coastline.
The old port town of Quepos is just 7 kilometers away. Once a shipping center for banana exports, it now boasts a new, world-class marina, with space for almost 200 boats, as well as plentiful dining and shopping options. The town of Quepos itself retains the history and local feel of old Costa Rica. It is a bustling town with several supermarkets, pharmacies, a hospital, bus station, local bar and dining options, and of course the nearby marina.
Whether its the beach community of Manuel Antonio or the town of Quepos, visitors from all over the world come to enjoy the magic of the area, as well as the hospitality of the local Costa Rican population. It truly is an area of Pura Vida.
