We had a fantastic stay at Shana! The service was outstanding—from advance planning, arrival, tour scheduling, and meals at the restaurant—the staff went above and beyond. Their attentiveness and professionalism set this hotel apart.
The location is really great too. We enjoyed the beach access and convenience to Manuel Antonio Nat'l Park and Ziplining Tour.
I’ll definitely be returning!
