Reviews and Ratings
Staying in the jungle view suite was an absolutely beautiful experience with private pools that were never crowded. The room featured a king bed, a lovely love seat in front of the flat screen TV, and a mini fridge, all in a gorgeous open-air setting with expansive views over the countryside.
My stay at Gaia was truly unforgettable. The hotel offers stunning views of the countryside right from the open-air restaurant, the rooms are incredibly spacious, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. The service was top-notch, with Sandy K Schmidt making sure I had all I needed from the moment I arrived. The location is a paradise between the jungle and the Pacific Ocean, close to wildlife experiences, Manuel Antonio, and Quepos. The dining was a mix of buffet and exquisite table service with fresh farm-to-table delights. The facilities were exceptional, providing everything I could wish for.
Staying at this hotel was a mix of wonderful experiences and a few minor drawbacks. The private patio and roof terrace provided stunning views out to the Pacific Ocean, but there was some noise from building work in the room above. The staff at the spa were friendly and attentive, and the rooms were serviced regularly and spotlessly clean.
The hotel offers spacious rooms akin to mini studio apartments with all the luxury resort amenities. Enjoyed the patio area for relaxing evenings amidst the forest sounds or watching the night sky. A perfect stay with great rooms.
I felt like I was staying in a luxurious jungle paradise, surrounded by stunning views and attentive service. The rooms were spacious, cozy, and had private plunge pools for that extra touch of relaxation. Although the dining options were a bit limited, the overall experience was fantastic with top-notch service and a magnificent location.
