Si Como No Resort Spa And Wildlife Refuge, Quepos

wonderful staff at one of the best eco-friendly places in manuel antonio. adult pool is a wonderful addition,but Rico Tico pool is still my favorite.the attentive staff is unsurpassed,we like that all the workers remember us!!(an acclomade to the owner,who respects everyone)

The hotel is beautiful ---our room had a fantastic view of the jungle and the ocean---saw more wildlife at the hotel than the jungle safaris--we were very pleased with the eco-friendly theme of the place . The staff were courteous and the restaurant was wonderful--highly recommend the hotel

Upon getting to the hotel we were told our room had been upgraded. We had a balcony that overlooked the jungle. Every morning we would sit outside and be in amazement at the wildlife right outside our door. Exotic birds, monkeys, iguanas made the stay fascinating. Also the staff was very helpful and courteous and the restaurant was very nice. We could not of asked for a better stay. If we ever make it back I would love to stay at this hotel. I recommend it very highly.

We think it is one of the best places we stayed while in Costa Rica. We sat on our deck and drank coffee and watched birds for hours. The trees out front were full of them. Also the monkeys would visit with their babies. All-n-all a very pleasent stay. Staff was very helpful and the food was good.

Por supuesto, Si Como No?!?! Stayed there in July of 1995 when it had just opened and it was simply fabulous. The photos here do no justice at all to the cliff top views of the Pacific, near the Manuel Antonio Nature Preserve from the villas. The pool is nestled into a cliff, which drops beneath it to the Pacific, has a swim up bar/cafe with grill, shaded terraces and a dual flume from the indigenous, tropically landscaped hill above it. The villa "room" I stayed in with my two travel companions was the size of a one bedroom apartment. !Pura Vida! all the way. Wish I could go back.... I had to enter a valid year under the Date of Visit to post this, so I chose the oldest available, 2003. My stay there was in 1995.

My husband and I returned from Costa Rica and a stay at Si Como No last week. Our flight there had been delayed one night due to an ice storm. When I called Si Como No, they said they would try to sell the room for that night but otherwise we would be charged. We arrived the next evening, and the person checking us in offered us the information that the room had been sold the previous night and we would not have to pay for it. When we got the bill however, that first night did appear on the bill along with 4 phone calls we did not make, and we found that we were overcharged for one of the tours. The girl at the desk went make to the manager's office 3 times trying to find out what to do about the charges and kept telling us that she could not refund the first night. The manager finally came out of hiding and we called him over. He was very rude. He told us the room was not sold and even if it was we would not get a refund--that was the policy. I told him what we had heard from the person on the phone and the person that checked us in that it had sold and it would be refunded. He said they were both wrong and the person who checked us in would have to pay if we didn't and he would not do that to his staff. I then said fine and asked for his Manager's card. Minutes later we were being refunded for the room, extra calls and overcharge on the tour. My husband told me later that one of the other staff had walked up and asked the girl working with us how much they decided to let us have (in Spanish--which I don't know) and she responded-everything they asked for. In my opinion this was unprofessional behavior all around, and we should not have had to speak up and argue for Si Como No to do the right thing! So, before you go, decide that you are comfortable fighting for yourself and know that Si Como No is out for themselves.

The only complaint I would have is that they would turn off the air conditioning after you left the room and opened all the blinds. We understand they are trying to conserve but our only suggestion to them was to leave the blinds closed during the day and leave the air on around 78 degrees. Otherwise, you couldn't ask for a nicer and friendlier place to stay!

Si Como No was everything you can ask for! It's great for families or singles. Services was great and they cater to your every need. It's the way to go!

Of all places we stayed in Costa Rica - 6 locations - Si Como No and Xandari were the best of the bunch. What really set this apart from the others was the location and the food. For the nature lover you see many varieties of wildlife right on the grounds - we spotted iguanas, geckos, anoles, bassilisks and ameivas, and had a giant treefrog on our deck one evening. Very cool! The views are gorgeous from the rooms and the waterslide in the main pool was a hit with our daughter. Go there and you won't regret the choice.

This place ruined our honeymoon. DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT stay at Si Como No Hotel. I got married there and they ruined my stay in Costa Rica. When you pay a lot of money, you expect for things to be nice. We had cigarette holes in the sheets the first night. (And that is only the top of the cake). I complained to the manager at the hotel, who said he would get back to me. He never did. I complained to the owner of the hotel, and he had the same attitude. He basically said that our issues were not important.
