Parador Nature Resort And Spa - A 5-star rainforest retreat with ocean views, wildlife encounters, and luxury amenities

Set on 12 acres of secondary rainforest overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Parador Nature Resort And Spa offers 130 rooms and suites with terraces or balconies featuring garden or ocean views. The property includes five pools, two of which are adult-only, along with a swim-up bar at the main pool. Dining options range from La Galería's ocean-view breakfast buffet to Nama Sushi Lounge's fusion dishes and La Fragata's sunset cocktails. The Pacífica Spa provides treatments across four air-conditioned rooms, a Jacuzzi, and relaxation areas. A certified guide leads 90-minute Monkey Trail hikes to spot monkeys, sloths, and tropical birds. The resort is 0.5 miles from Playitas Beach and 2 miles from Manuel Antonio National Park, with private transfers available to Quepos Regional Airport (9.5 miles away).

Pros

The adults-only Ocean Vista Pool & Jacuzzi offers panoramic ocean views.

La Fragata restaurant serves light fare from the property's highest vantage point.

Vista Suites include private balconies with hot tubs and 260-degree ocean vistas.

Night hikes with telescopic lenses reveal nocturnal wildlife like red-eyed frogs.

The mini-golf course and children's pool cater to family activities.

Cons

The rainforest setting means frequent wildlife encounters, which may unsettle some guests.

Vista Suites and adult-only pools restrict access for guests under 18.
