The property in on steep land, but transportation is available 24/7 via golf cart and the staff respond quickly. There are many amenities. First, the concierge staff are top notch. Johansy made sure all of our needs were met and she went above and beyond to do so. For example, when we found out the mini bar service was no longer offered, she helped us order snacks and drinks to be delivered from a grocery store to have in our room. Second, the resort provides its' own guides for the Manuel Antonio National Park. We arranged to have a private tour due to my mobility limitations. We had Clarence Whittaker as our guide, and he was so patient, friendly and helpful, he pushed me in a wheelchair, UPHILL and over gravel and rocks. He was incredible. And of course, he was an excellent, knowledgeable guide. I cannot say enough about him. There is also a free tour of the hotel's own nature reserve, but we didn't go on it. The food at the restaurant is excellent. The included breakfast is very generous. All the wait staff were friendly and attentive. The view is gorgeous and we watched the sun set from the restaurant and Sky Bar every night. We heard howler monkeys and toucans. The drinks were delicious and not overly sweet like in the US. Our room was lovely, comfortable and clean and it had nice amenities too, like delicious coffee, a sitting area, an outdoor sitting area and a luxurious shower with multiple nozzles. The housekeeping staff were wonderful and accommodating.

It’s a nice property with a good rooftop bar and restaurant. The staff is super nice and friendly. My only gripe is that they try very hard to be upscale that at times becomes too much. For example, the check in process of choosing shampoos and getting the tour is a bit much. They also assign you a concierge that you can message for anything at anytime (or the concierge will message you to see if you need anything), which is nice but also seems like overkill. In general the hotel was great though. Would recommend it.

We cannot recommend Gaia highly enough. The hotel was beautifully maintained, the staff was exceptional and we love the mission of supporting the macaws. The birds were breathtaking! We also had monkeys right outside our room on multiple occasions. Rooms were amazing and clean. We will definitely be back !

We have stayed at the Gaia two times before. We love it every time. This time it seemed a bit of the mark though. The toilet paper roll was loose and wouldn’t stay up, the shower drain was plugged( they fixed after a day), and the rooftop bar was not open the first couple days we were there. The breakfast was also lit as good as it used to be. Still a good and free breakfast but not what I looked forward to each time. Staff is always very attentive and willing to help any way they can. Our concierge was also in constant contact with any issues and even got us a spa spot on a rainy day even when they said they were full when we called. We stayed in a suite with balcony. This is a plus on rainy days as we sometimes just sat and watched the wildlife from our balcony

Gaia was a beautiful property that we celebrated our honeymoon at. Our loft suite was spacious & clean. The pools and grounds were well kept & luxurious. The staff were kind & attentive. We had Edson as our concierge who was helpful & available in booking excursions, taxi's, & truly was helpful with anything we needed. We booked messages at the spa & a facial because it was so relaxing & refreshing we had to go twice. We loved the breakfast at La Luna daily, the best coffee with the most beautiful view. We would visit again & would recommend.
