If you want to stay at a cookie-cutter American type chain hotel, this is not the place for you. If you want a unique, enchanting Costa Rican experience, then I would highly recommend Hotel Plinio. I stayed in August and was never hot at all, despite the lack of air conditioning in the Swiss Family Robinsonesque (you feel like you're... more

Just want to say that I have been in the hotel several times and the hotel was very nice this last time. At night you can hear the frogs and wildlife. The people was very nice and friendly. Beatriz the receptionist was very helpful and Jorge at the bar was very friendly. I recomend to visit the View Tower back... more

Plinio was great! The four of us, a family with 10 and 13 year old daughters, were looking for an extra night in Manuel Antonio and booked it on a recommendation of the Lonely Planet. We stayed in one of their three-story suite units. Very charming place with lots of character and space. See attached pictures. We especially enjoyed relaxing... more

Great Place! $80 bucks a night for a three-bedroom condo - not bad, a little bit rustic but you are in Costa Rica. The trail behind the lodge to the lookout is fantastic, just do it in the morning before the heat gets oppressive. I recommend swimming in the very nice pool - try it during a downpour! The onsite... more

BOOOO!!! Can't speak for all rooms but for $90 a piece the two rooms we had were right on the road, in rooms that appeared to have last been remodeled or even touched up in 1973. With all of the construction going on in Manuel Antonio and the heavy car flow, it was hard to have a conversation outside. The... more

My husband, daughter and I spent two nights at the Plinio over New Years and enjoyed it very much. The three story bungalow was a treat and very comfortable and spacious. We ate dinner at the hotel each night and were very impressed, and the complimentary breakfast was wonderful! Nice pool to cool off in after a long day of... more

Nicely themed hotel with lots of wood in a lush setting. While the building has passed it's primetime it still has a unique and exotic character. The restaurant has a refreshing selection of dishes, staff is friendly. The room was simple and reasonably clean, good breakfast buffet. the pool could have been a bit cleaner. The real drawback is that... more

I stayed at the Plinio during my trip through Costa Rica with my dad in March, 2004. I thought it was a great hotel. We had a few, let's say special experiences (i.e. huge bug in the room, just beside the door, that might have gotten in while we were getting our luggage inside). The hotel features a nice trail... more

Stayed here two nights over New Year's. The hotel is on the road that leads from Quepos to Manuel Antonio. I enjoyed my stay here, but there were definitely pros and cons. For one, the hotel is built into a *really* steep hill. If you have issues climbing steps you might reconsider staying here. We stayed in the "Jungle House",... more
