Lovely hotel with fabulous views from all the rooms. Even better views from the rooftop pool. Friendly and helpful staff and we would definitely return there

Excellent hotel, we loved it there so much we extended our original 4 night stay to 12 nights. It’s a great location where we could walk to two beautiful beaches as well we walked to Manuel Antonio National Park. The rooms are spacious and very clean, our room #203 had a beautiful view as well as a little yard with grass and a high vine privacy wall between next yard. Loved sitting on the lounge chairs there reading my book. Breakfast was included and it was excellent with multiple items on the breakfast menu to choose from. The food was so good we ended up having dinner there 11 of the 12 nights. The staff were wonderful Daniela at the front was exceptionally helpful with answering questions and giving suggestions on places to go. Justin, Ronald, Steven and Roy were friendly and gave great service in the dining room. Justin and Ronald patiently helped me with my Spanish. The pool was lovely with swings to sit on at the swim up bar. I highly recommend Layan Hotel. We will definitely be going back on our next trip to Costa Rica.

. This year I decided come to CR. I have been enchanted with this beautiful country: I love the water, the sunshine, the many different types of climates, and the animals. But what really made the biggest difference was the people. Your hotel staff, Megan, Allison, Daniella, have been very knowledgeable about CR works, and been hard working and friendly in many ways. They were always available to help with whatever crisis I encountered, including website issues with my airline, deciding to change from boat to kayak in tomorrow’s exploration, having a big animal wake me up at dawn when I had no idea what the sound was caused by, I hadn’t brought cash with me, etc, etc. They did a great job, and I wanted to acknowledge it. I will return, and I’ll come back to Layan Hotel.

Feeling secluded up on top of the mountain that overlooks the Pacific Ocean is one of the million reasons we continue to come back and stay! Roy is the BEST, we have never had a bad experience any of the 6 times we've stayed at Layan! Cheers to next time!

If you are considering this property, I would tell you to go for it! The rooms and staff are very nice and the resort is well known as one of the better properties in Manuel Antonio. The views from each room are breathtaking and a joy to wake up to each morning.

La Mansion Inn is a small, private boutique-style hotel and we had the Presidential Suite, which was enormous and exquisitely decorated. And the best part of all, most times we felt like we were the only ones at the hotel. We had the pool, restaurant and Cave Bar all to ourselves throughout our whole trip.

We just spent four incredible nights at the La Mansion Inn in Costa Rica. This property was everything and more than we expected. The staff couldn't have been more helpful and attentive. The rooms were beautiful with breathtaking views to wake up to every morning... a stay we shall never forget.

We were in awe. The hotel grounds were beautiful, and everyone was so helpful. Everyone who worked there took such pride in the hotel. We never passed a single employee who didn't happily wish us "pura vida"! All I can say is that you won't be disappointed. It ended up being the highlight of our trip to Costa Rica.
