Beautiful stay, only had one room left reserved through Expedia so I had to book through them or else I wouldn’t have. Expedia is really bad in Costa Rica. They also charged me like $40 more to book through them.

The property and surrounding area are beautiful, with a private trail leading directly to the beach. From our room, we could watch monkeys playing in the trees.The staff is super friendly, and they can help book transportations to the park and airport.

Shana's location was excellent: close to a wonderful beach accessible from the property, and a short (though hilly) walk to Manuel Antonio town. Our party had two rooms with ocean views that were close together. They were, bright, clean, nicely appointed, and comfortable. There are two pool areas, but we only discovered the adult pool towards the end of our stay (would have used it more.) We really enjoyed the views from the open-air restaurant and witnessed monkeys there a few times. Overall, the food selection was good and whatever we ordered was tasty. We particularly liked the breakfast buffet. A shout out to Javier, Andre, Edgar, and Lizandro for their excellent service. Be sure to catch the beautiful sunset views from the property!

Not a premium or luxury experience, very basic. There is nothing special about this property, rooms are very basic and kind of boring actually. In need of redesign or remodeling. For example the lighting needs work, allow some sort of dimming. We also hated the smell of their body gel and shampoo, I hope they consider something different. It's a long walk down to the beach and you can definitely go to a nicer beach close by. The staff were friendly though. I think they just need a creative mind to uplift the experience, room designs/comfort, add some soul and luxury to the rooms, revamp the bathroom stuff, make sure there is ventilation in the bathrooms. Maybe include complimentary water everyday at the very least. We walked to the reception area multiple times to ask for water (which is very difficult to get to) and the night reception manager Oliver told us if the restaurant is closed just drink water from bathroom sink. We saw piles of bottle water in the storage areas everyday we walked by, they did have bottled water available, maybe just lazy to give it to us. Anyways this is supposed to be a premium property and experience based on the way it presents itself on travel websites but thats not the overall experience we had.

Ofrecer una habitación al momento de reservar y al llegar es algo súper diferente, una habitación con un olor repugnante, toda la noche con un olor a humedad es un problema que ya tienen desde hace bastante por qué tienen varios aparatos de humanizador que igual no quitan del todo el olor, mi hermana es asmática y aún así no les importo y solo dijeron que no tenían más habitaciones, no tienen un buen servicio al cliente y su excusa era porque había llegado tarde cuándo es un hotel y puedo llegar a la hora que yo quiera, no deberían ofrecer esa habitación si saben el problema que tienen, me sentí cero satisfecha, JAMÁS volvería a este hotel y mucho menos volvería reservar por Expedia porque no dan un seguro, les mencioné lo que sucedía y lo único que hicieron fue dizque un bono de 50 dólares cuando no equivale ni un cuarto a lo que pague, pase una noche fatal.

This was our least favorite hotel during our trip. The restaurant at the hotel was overpriced and not very good. Parking is sparse and extremely tight. The toilets take forever to flush each time. The hotel is on a very steep hill that is a pain to walk up. The staff was very friendly, at least.

The first night the Junior suite we booked had very bad damp, musty smell. Made it hard to sleep, notified the staff and were able to give us a different room. We were there on Christmas eve till the day after Christmas. Breakfast was great both days,the Christmas dinner needed more options than f8sh, chicken and veggies especially at the price point. We opted to go out to a nearby nearby location with a full menu options. The Shana by the Beach staff are their best assets.

Its a bit of a drive in from the main road so you can't really walk to other places safely. Pool space, drinks and food is pretty good. The walk to the beach can be strenuous but doable in sandals/flipflops. Pretty close to Manuel Antonio. Would visit again.

We got stranded in Costa Rica because of a tropical storm and had to leave the vrbo we were staying at. The shana was more than accommodating and found 4 rooms for us and made us real right at home. The property is gorgeous with tons of wild life and beautiful views. We would definitely return to this hotel on future visits!
