酒店回复: Dear Thierry,Thank you for the wonderful 10/10 and for spending five nights with us at Makanda by the Sea. We’re delighted that our adults-only, design-forward hideaway in the heart of Manuel Antonio’s lush vegetation matched what you were looking for. It’s great to hear you enjoyed your beautiful sea-view room and spotted so much wildlife—monkeys, sloths, parrots, and agoutis—often more than in the park next door!Your kind words about our welcoming team mean a lot. We’ll happily pass along your special thanks to Andreas, Candy, and our manager, Leo, as well as the arrivals and departures team for the warm reception.On a future visit, we’d love for you to discover a few guest favorites that pair perfectly with our mountainside setting in Manuel Antonio: a magnificent floating breakfast with Pacific views, soothing treatments at Shanti Spa, and unforgettable lunches and dinners at Árbol Restaurant. Many guests also enjoy our gym equipped with the latest technology, a wide variety of guided tours, and quiet moments on the wild Makanda beach where the jungle meets the ocean.Thank you again for your generous review. We look forward to welcoming you back for another “super séjour” in Manuel Antonio.

酒店回复: Dear Christian,Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review. We’re delighted you enjoyed our elegant, laid-back design, your stylish room, and the panoramic Pacific views from both pools here at Makanda by the Sea in Manuel Antonio. It’s great to hear our friendly service stood out as well.We’re sorry for the inconveniences you noted. Our mountainside setting means stairs and steep paths are part of the jungle-meets-ocean experience; to help, golf-cart assistance is available, and we’ve added more wayfinding and non-slip treatments on key segments. The path to our wild Makanda beach is intentionally natural and, as you saw, more pebbly and rocky—loungers and towels are provided, and our team can suggest nearby sandy options if you prefer a classic beach day.On dining: thank you for praising quality while flagging selection and wait times. We’re expanding seasonal specials at Árbol and breakfast variety, and we’ve reinforced pacing and communication so guests know timing before ordering.Regarding daytime construction noise near Villa 9, we apologize for the disturbance from the neighboring property. When activity is expected, we do our best to allocate quieter villas or offer a move when availability allows.For a future visit, many guests love a magnificent floating breakfast, a treatment at Shanti Spa, a session in our ocean-view gym with the latest technology, and guided tours around Manuel Antonio—before returning to the pools to watch for monkeys at dusk.We appreciate your balanced feedback, Christian, and hope to welcome you back for an even smoother stay.
