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.
Let me start by saying that the actual property was fine and the staff was very helpful. The villas are a bit outdated and could be more comfortable but were... read more clean. The views from the property are completely gone. There is a construction site between the property and the beach so the only view is now a black fence. Once the construction is done the view will be blocked. The walk to the beach is down a path in the woods. At the end of the path you must walk thru a dirty estuary . We observed horse manure being dropped in there from the horses on the beach. Along the path there is a hut used by a guy that rents chairs on the beach. Usually no big deal but sometimes it’s used by his friends to hang out and get high. We were uncomfortable walking the path when they were there. 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
Great location. Great beach. Beautiful grounds, well-maintained. Fun. Well-staffed. Clean and safe. The four villas provide serene private space, each having its own pool. The communal space called "Gather" is... read more lovely for coming together as a group for food, drinks, games, and/or making music.
We had the best time at The EOC! It was one of the most relaxing vacations I have ever been on. We enjoyed all of the amenities, including the pools,... read more beach chair set up service, beach toys, and boogie boards. We really appreciated the laundry service since we went through a lot of clothing. All of the staff were wonderful, especially Juan Pablo the concierge. We loved seeing the monkeys and hearing/seeing the other wildlife around the area. I actually loved the fact that there was not a television, and we did not miss it at all. Thank you for one of the best trips ever!
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.
