Hy Paradise Inn

Parque Nacional Manuel Antonio & Around


A quaint collection of mustard-yellow structures around a little pool, with standard rooms featuring private balconies overlooking a lush tropical garden. We’re partial to the larger king rooms featuring dramatic ocean views, comfortable sitting area, oversized beds and kitchenettes, with enough space for a family of four.
