My husband, Ryan, and I spent a week at Nantipa for our honeymoon, and we are already planning our return. We can’t say enough about how incredible this place is… we are OBSESSED. And 100% will return. We stayed in a Manti bungalow with its own private pool. Everything about it was perfect. We felt completely safe and at ease, and even though we visited during rainy season, it made the scenery even more magical!! Honestly, the rain became one of our favorite parts. Ryan ordered the Tico breakfast nearly every morning and was obsessed! As a vegan, I so appreciated how accommodating the staff was, they happily adjusted the avocado toast for me, and the lunch menu had plenty of great options (we ordered plantains quite literally every single day!). Dinner was fantastic too, although I do wish there were a few more vegan choices. The main pool was another highlight, it felt very private, surrounded by rainforest- you can’t hear any of the noise from the street or beach. Truly the perfect spot to unwind. I also took a Pilates class one morning and loved it!!! What TRULY made Nantipa unforgettable was honestly the staff. Every single person went above and beyond to make sure our stay was special. We couldn’t stop talking about how nice everyone was, we were seriously impressed. They also helped us arrange excursions and atv transportation. Ariane, Salvador, Rafael, Jose, Andrey, and all of the amazing pool wait staff, thank you!! We wish we could remember everyone’s names because every single person we encountered was wonderful!!!!!!!!!

I traveled to Nantipa with a group of friends in the travel industry, who definitely are familiar with what makes a hotel great. We had countless conversations about how much we were loving our experience at Nantipa. The sunset beach vibe every evening is such a highlight. Rooms are spacious and well-appointed. The food is a "wow" at the restaurant, and the staff are so passionate and good at what they do. I definitely would recommend anyone to stay here, especially if you want to be right on the beach.
