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.

Villas Nicolas was absolutely amazing! The staff were super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. It was so nice to stay at an adults only place! I think the property has only 12 rooms so it feels intimate. Therefore, it's quiet without tons of people. We swam in the pool every day. Breakfast is included. If I would visit Manuel Antonio again, I would without a doubt stay here again. 10/10!!!

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.

Absolutely loved this place. Everyone was very nice, and the property is lovely. The ability to lie on the hammock and look at the view made the rainy days so peaceful. I recommend booking the larger king room.

We had a great stay here overall, they upgraded our room and we had a beautiful view of the ocean beside the jungle filled with animals, the patio with a hammock was a highlight. There are many gaps in the door so bugs were easily able to enter the room which wasnt the greatest! Overall would recommend if you can handle bugs/wildlife!

I would like to say the staff was amazing! The second we arrived Dennis got us all checked in and even allowed us to check in early since we had an excursion set up. We got checked in and got to see a Macaw! Room was awesome! Animals all over. We saw a sloth from our balcony. Would book again!

Villas Nicolas is beautiful and we were so happy with our stay! The staff was very welcoming and attentive. The breakfast each morning was a lovely , and the grounds and pool were exceptional. The hotel is within walking distance of many restaurants, the beach (20 min), and even Manuel Antonio NP if you're up for a little hike. Public transit runs regularly and is inexpensive to get to around the area. Lovely stay! If were ever back in CS, we'll be back at Villas Nicolas!

This was a really cool property. We saw more wildlife here (monkeys, toucans, and Macaw) then we did on all of our excursions while in Costa Rica. Awesome porches/patios. Shout out to Paola. She was great. Warm and welcoming and helpful. The only thing lacking, we thought were the shampoo and soaps. Otherwise, very comfortable enjoyable stay.

If ever there was a place that felt like home, Villas Nicolas was that for us. From the moment we arrived on March 8th, Dennys & Cheryl made us feel welcomed and like family. The staff are wonderful & friendly, (Hi Paula & security guard whose name escapes me at the moment 👋) and the property, a safe, beautiful and tropical oasis overlooking the ocean. Our villa (#1 up) had the most spectacular view with daily visits of various monkey species from funny little Titi's who were captivating and would visit and give us a show, and more serious, calculating Capuchins and of course the Howlers who you hear before seeing. The birds like Toucans would visit in the trees directly in front of our terrace, and of course Scarlett Macaws flying by and nesting in hollow Palm tree trunks directly on the property. Of course we can't forget the numerous Gecko's, Anoles and Iguanas. It is an animal lovers paradise. Cheryl's 2 dogs, Noella and Stella, and her cat Arlo helped with me missing mine at home. My husband Craig and I loved our stay here, we met some wonderful people and highly recommend it. We look forward to returning. Pura Vida! ❤️🤙

We were very happy with our stay. The property is in a great location near the park and is very private once you get inside. The pool area is great, very tranquil. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A.C was great, had a little coffee maker. Our room did not have a balcony, but had a big window with a view to the ocean and into the jungle. Would recommend without question.
