"We reserved a room at this location, however we were switched to ZenZaru same ownership. At KiKaru the grounds were not maintained and the pool was unusable/not clean. When we arrived at ZenZaru the location was very inconvenient. You had to go down approximately 100 steps to get to the rooms. There is no reception area, no rest area/lounge. The room was recently finished but not complete. The bathroom/shower was large and comfortable, however the extreme hot water was not adjustable and poor...

"Room was less than average. Staff was helpful but I adjusted on lot of things instead of calling for staff.
Everything felt cheap, beds, towels and kitchen utensils were disgusting, even spoons and forks felt like avoid touching them at all costs than eating with them. "

"The staffs all very nice and ready to help. Rooms are big, breakfast is of high quality. We end up eating most lunch and dinner on premise, since they are high quality, inexpensive with mice view and live music. The room is quite clean, but we had a leaking pipe the third day, they switched us to a better one. "

"We absolutely loved staying here. As a family of four we felt very comfortable in such beautiful and clean villas. Everyone was so nice and hospitable. The food was so delicious and the fresh fried plantains. Both the ladies in the kitchen were so sweet. Plenty of free private parking. The stairs are absolutely no issue, should you have one there is a wheelchair friendly route to take down to the villas/pool instead. We did not want to leave! If you’re wanting to stay near MA, stay here!"

"The room is very clean and well maintained. Staff is nice and friendly. Lettika is a wonderful woman who is always willing to help us.
Our room had an outdoor sunroom-like space with screened walls, which made it feel open and connected to nature while still feeling safe and comfortable. Sitting on the sofa, birds would come right in front of me, and it was such a peaceful and enjoyable experience."

"This was an amazing experience and the highlight of our trip to Costa Rica. Giselle and the team at esquipulas took wonderful care of us. We got some amazing birding pictures, saw the feeding of the king vulture and loved every moment of our tipi experience. And the food was amazing! We can’t wait to go back"

"We enjoyed our stay! The room was great, the staff very helpful and it was a good location. We also saw iguanas, monkeys and toucans on the property. "

"Great stay. Beautiful landscape/garden and very friendly service. Relatively quiet and calm. No major „attractions“ nearby, but various restaurants and small shops along the street. Everything else requires a car, Uber, or a <$1 bus ride which was very convenient."

While Valle Pura Vida might not have many sights to explore, venturing just a little farther will lead you to top things to see and do like Manuel Antonio Nature Park & Wildlife Refuge and Cascada El Salto.
"We arrived late but the security met us and showed us our room which was done up nice. We had an excellent breakfast which was included. We wish we had not been delayed on our arrival so we could have enjoyed it more"
"Great staff, amazing hotel - wish it was up-kept and cleaned better and definitely has the potential. Complimentary breakfast is very limited - no substitutes, unless paid out of pocket (which seemed unfair, as I don't eat bacon/pork). Overall, enjoyed our stay and the Alma Vida Hotel culcture. "
"It’s a very well located hotel, amazing views from the room. Infinity pool is beautiful. We had a corner room and would be nice to have a couch and comfortable chairs in the room. We would definitely return to La Mariposa ."
"We didn’t want to leave! Everything was spectacular, staff, friendly, location, views, food and variety, wildlife, comfortable and memorable! We saw more monkeys here than all of Costa Rica including Macaws flying around too! We highly recommend this place!"
"We had an amazing stay here.
The rooms are spacious and clean, and the amenities were great. Every morning, you order breakfast and it’s made to order and delicious. The pool area was quiet and peaceful, surrounded by lush greenery. We spent a good amount of time reading and swimming! The staff was helpful, attentive, and friendly. We had the best time here and will come back and stay again soon!"
