Gaia stands out in the Manuel Antonio resort area as a very stylish and modern hotel with that intimate boutique twist and nonchalantly set in its own private nature reserve.

Its minimal design and luxury is in stark contrast to the tangled jungle packed around it and in to which the hotel’s immersion commands wonderful seclusion, tranquillity and uninterrupted rooftop views.

The 20 rooms fall into 4 categories of which the suites (Deluxe & Gaia) or the 2 bedroom villas are highly recommended, in particular the deluxe suite has a rooftop terrace with fantastic vistas and its own pool.

Also the size of the hotel means it can manage and carry out a very high and bespoke level of service to guests with your own personalised concierge, room service at any time, and a free shuttle minibus into town or to the airport.

The restaurant holds a Tapas Time every evening and breakfast is a la carte.

Gaia is a perfect hideaway for honeymooners or for those looking for style, privacy and pampering.
