At Parador, we don’t just offer a place to stay—we offer an experience that captures the heart and soul of Costa Rica. Nestled between lush rainforest and the sparkling Pacific Ocean, our resort is a sanctuary of natural beauty, warm hospitality, and unforgettable moments. Here’s why so many guests return year after year, and why we hope to welcome you soon.
A Stunning Location That Takes Your Breath Away
Perched on a 12-acre rainforest promontory, Parador boasts panoramic views of the Pacific and is just minutes from world-renowned Manuel Antonio National Park. Our location strikes the perfect balance: close enough for adventure, yet secluded enough to feel like your own private paradise.
From the moment you arrive, the lush greenery, vibrant flowers, and ocean vistas set the stage for something extraordinary. Whether you’re sipping coffee at sunrise or watching the sunset from your private balcony, you’re surrounded by nature’s finest scenery.
Hospitality That Feels Like Family
We welcome every guest like family. From the first greeting with a chilled towel and fruit cocktail to our personalized service throughout your stay, our team is here to make your experience truly special.
Your bellman will guide you to your room in an electric cart, winding through trails lined with tropical plants. Along the way, don’t be surprised if you spot a sloth napping in a tree or toucans flying overhead. It’s all part of the Parador magic.
Luxurious Accommodations with Eco-Friendly Elegance
Our 130 rooms and suites are designed to feel like your private sanctuary. Blending modern comforts with local charm, each space includes plush bedding, spacious layouts, and eco-conscious amenities like biodegradable toiletries and energy-saving lighting.
Whether you choose a Garden Room nestled in the foliage or a Premium Suite with sweeping views, every stay includes a private balcony. Some even feature Jacuzzis for the ultimate in relaxation. For the ultimate indulgence, our Presidential Suite offers wraparound terraces and tailored luxury.
Culinary Excellence That Celebrates Costa Rica
Food is an experience at Parador, and we take pride in crafting every dish with heart. At our flagship Galería Restaurant, we serve fresh, locally inspired dishes such as sea bass ceviche with passion fruit and mango, and expertly grilled meats. Our menus cater to all palates, with vegetarian, gluten-free, and international options.
Beyond Galería, you’ll find a variety of settings to satisfy any craving. From casual bites by the pool to romantic dinners under the stars, every meal is a celebration. We’re especially proud of our newly remodeled Fragata Restaurant—a stylish oceanfront venue perfect for sunset cocktails or intimate dinners. With its refined design and sea-inspired ambiance, it’s quickly become a guest favorite.
Start your mornings with tropical fruits, custom omelets, fresh pastries, and Costa Rica’s beloved gallo pinto, all served with rich local coffee and birdsong in the background.
