Love this place. The laid back vibe. You feel like you have the resort to yourself. The owner Diana is always on hand to help with anything you need. The breakfast was great, we had dinner one night it was also great. We love the dogs that live on the resort as well as the raccoon. They like to hang out with the guests. The beach is secluded and has the most beautiful sunset you will ever see. This was our third time there and we will be back.

Lovely hotel in amazing location
Clandestino was beautiful and Diana, the owner just couldn't do enough for us. Lovely room, very comfortable and quiet. Beautiful pool and comfy sunbeds. Good choice for breakfast, will cook any combination you fancy!! We also ate in the restaurant every night and again great choice of food. We ate there every night (8 nights). Location of hotel did not disappoint. Right on the beach - miles of deserted, unspoilt sandy beach and the benefit of both sunrise and sunset. Pretty local for several of the attractions, Rainmaker (waterfalls), Manuel Antonio Nature Reserve and Mangrove boat trip and Diana booked transport for us. The resident pets were great fun and very friendly too! We will definitely go back - thank you Diana

Very good one night stay. Room was comfortable and convenient to restaurant and pool. Pool was relaxing but only very shallow or too deep to stand. I didn’t like that shower floor was hard to stand on with round large stones. Good was good at restaurant but expensive.

We loved this place. To be honest, when we initially pulled in, I was very skeptical that we booked a really odd property. But 3 days later, I couldnt be happier when added all up. The thing I liked the most about the property was an extreme "chill" vibe (Pura Vida) that resinated through everything. Gorgeous area with waves crashing literally right behind every meal you eat. One of the nicest things about it was the beach, the sand, and the surf. There isn't a single rock or sharp anything in the water. Just sand, as far as you can head out. The property owner (Diane) and her staff treats you like family, lets you use all of their stuff (surf boards included). My middle kid learned how to surf while there - so cool! Breakfast is included and is fantastic. You can choose to eat lunch and dinner on sight and most of the food was decent. We loved all of Diane's animals, especially her very tame racoon. Staff was super nice and friendly. We had a great time and plan to return. Thanks so much.
