La Virgen Vacation Packages

Beautiful restaurant and hotel. It has a fun relaxed feel. As soon as you enter you feel transported. The rooms are beautifully decorated, they are specious and have all amenities. We truly enjoyed our stay. We ended up having dinner every night at Casa Lamia since it was the best restaurant we tried in Costa Rica. The service was friendly and impeccable. The staff made you feel at home. We were waken up everyday to a delicious breakfast made by Yeimy. Our fondest memories of Costa Rica were at Casa Lamia, can’t wait to go back.

The property is very unique in that you will see wildlife everywhere. People who have issues walking should avoid the villas . There are just too many steep steps leading to the main lodge. The roads are not paved so be prepared for bumpy rides.

We took two tours arranged by the resort: Manuel Antonio national guided walking tour and mysteries of the night (within the property). On the first, we saw three types of monkeys (white faced, howler and squirrel), sloths, and some birds. It was very hot the day we went, and we were very tired; though the tour was good, not that impressed given that this park was considered the best in the country. The night tour was much more impressive with so many frogs and toads with their unique sound apart from some nonvenomous snakes. It was worth our time and money. We found more sloths, toucans, and birds within the property than in the national park. The resort had a host of swimming pools, great breakfast and a variety of restaurants. The nearby beach town of Manuel Antonio was very small and the shuttle timings were not that convenient. The beach was just OK. The staff at the resort were all very friendly and they introduced us to the theme of Costa Rica, “Pure Vida” and lived up to it. The room was well lit and the service excellent. I would recommend the resort but it may be a little pricey.

We stayed 2 nights at the resort. It was a decent stay, but nothing grand. While the outside grounds/buildings were immaculate, the inside of the room we stayed in was very outdated, aged and not overly clean. It was disappointing. The mini fridge was not stocked when we arrived and when it did get stocked, it was very minamally done and with no beer. A let down given it’s an all-inclusive. Also, the resort doesn’t do anything for birthdays unless you pay. Too bad because we were on this trip for my husbands 50th.

Room and areas clean. Some options to do on property, like excursions. Horses stalls were sad, and small. Felt bad for condition Cute pool hot springs area. Food low options for families especially. Expensive for what you received.
