Welcome to Espadilla Ocean Club in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. Just a few minutes walk from Manuel Antonio National Park, our four luxury villas are just steps from the beach and each villa has its own private pool to relax and hang back in with all the comforts of home.
We were here in 2018 and it was such an amazing time we came back to do it again in 2020. Everyone is super-helpful from before you even arrive.... read more The property is amazing, and the staff can cater to your every need. The villas are large and great for families. Our villa was like a mansion for just two of us. Monkeys and exotic birds are everywhere. The best part is the beach, by far. It's huge, and at any given time there are maybe 100 people, tops, across an entire mile of beautiful sand. And you have your own reserved space with chairs and umbrellas, and a really nice guy named Michael is standing by to bring you lunch or drinks or whatever you need. There are also numerous restaurants and bars within walking distance or by taxi. We particularly liked Buena Vista Beach Club, Buru, Morpho and El Largato the best. Juan Pablo and the concierge staff are all very accommodating and can arrange whatever you want, including all kinds of excursions to go on - zip lining, whale watching, jungle tours, etc. It's a really great trip for anyone looking to enjoy a bit of luxury in Costa Rica, and we'll be back for sure. We miss it already! More
We had an awesome time. There was construction that was starting in front of the hotel as we were leaving. Not sure how that will change the ambiance of the... read more hotel. We would definitely consider coming back if the opportunity presents itself. More
This was my first visit to Costa Rica, and it will not be the last. The EOC was fantastic! The views of the sunsets from the villas and beaches... read more are spectacular. I stayed in Villa #3 and it was perfect, from the bedrooms, kitchen, porch with a mini pool, and hammock it was the perfect place to relax with friends. Chris Bishop was the perfect host, we enjoyed the Manuel Antonio National Park, great restaurants, and afternoons on the beach relaxing. The staff was outstanding and attentive from the minute we arrived till we left! Bobby and his wife Shelly Workman went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. I would recommend the EOC for a friend or family vacation spot. There are tons of things to do and see within walking distance. I am looking forward to my next stay at the EOC.

Such a great location, the beach is a 30 second walk away! The beach in front is very quiet and the water was perfect for me and my two kids.... read more The place was very clean, and had all the basics. The staff were very kind and helpful. Juan Pablo was amazing, he was always there to help and offer honest advice on activities and places to see in the area. We saw so many animals right outside our window, toucans, monkeys, even a sloth 10’ from our bedroom window! The only thing was the construction that started on the property between the villas and the beach. I think it will be hard to call it a beachfront property in the future. However, we still had an amazing stay and loved our experience in Manuel Antonio!
It was the most expensive place we stayed in Costa Rica and we were expecting more in terms of architectural design and size of the villas. Extremely friendly staff,... read more but that does not make it for the fact that there is no table inside the villa to accommodate four people.
Each of our unique villas designs is inspired by the elements of nature and welcomes you with
