Trailfinders View
Surrounded by 12 acres of verdant rainforest and offering stunning views of the Pacific Ocean, this resort is a short drive from the entrance to the spectacular Manuel Antonio National Park and a 10 minute walk from a small beach. The property is spread over large tropical gardens, with a range of excellent facilities including multiple panoramic pools, a spa, pickleball courts and mini golf. When you're not trying out the host of activities available, keep an eye out for wildlife along the network of nature trails as the area is home to sleepy sloths, scarlet macaws, inquisitive monkeys and brightly coloured toucans. In the evening, tantalise the tastebuds with a selection of restaurants, ranging from casual dining al fresco and innovative sushi dishes to more intimate private dining options.

Parador Resort & Spa Expert Review
Laura Harvey
Parador Resort is a good 4★ hotel in Manuel Antonio. It is perched up high so has great views from the resort and rooms.
We spotted a few sloths and there were monkeys around and in the trees so it’s a good area for spotting wildlife.
The resort itself is quite large with three pools, including an adult only pool. There are lots of trails from the hotel and access to a small beach.
We stayed in a Vista Suite which had incredible views of the ocean. I would definitely recommend this room category if budget allows, but I would also highly recommend an Ocean View Room as minimum as the views alone are worth the upgrade.
Food at the hotel was of a high standard. I’d recommend adding half board to your stay as the hotel is isolated and not in walking distance to any local restaurants.

Trailfinders Hotel Classification Guide
Modest accommodation with basic facilities, representing good value where price is the main priority.
Simple, comfortable accommodation and facilities offering good value for the destination.
Good standard of accommodation and/or facilities and overall a higher level of service may be expected.
High international standards of accommodation and facilities where luxury and quality of service are priorities.
Indicates that the property offers a higher than average level of accommodation and facilities when compared to other properties of the same classification.
Unique, often smaller and sometimes historic properties, which offer individual charm and are consequently very popular. They offer the standards of accommodation indicated by their classification but rooms may be smaller than average and not all facilities may be available.
Trailfinders classifications are for your guidance only and do not mirror any international "star rating" system. In each case, the full description of the property should be read and used in conjunction with the classification indicated. A 3★ city hotel, for example, may be more expensive than a 4★ if it is in a prime location. Classifications are unique to a destination and can reflect local or regional variations in quality and service, so a 5★ in a particular area may not be comparable with a 5★ elsewhere.
