Grand Master Suite in Manuel Antonio

The Grand Master Suite is the most spacious accommodation at ECOTICA, set at canopy height where the rainforest opens out on every side. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a comfortable living area and a full kitchen give everyone space to spread out, and the suite is kept immaculately private and spotless from one day to the next.

Mornings here begin with birdsong and the rustle of branches close enough to follow with your eyes. Coffee in the kitchen, breakfast around the table or an afternoon in the living area all come with the same green view, and the hours pass easily between the suite and the jungle outside.

It is perfect for a large family, or for friends travelling together who want room to gather and still retreat. Rest comes in a king bed and two queen beds, with air-conditioning and ceiling fans throughout, bathrobes and a hairdryer in the bathrooms, a coffee maker, refrigerator and microwave for easy mornings, a desk and WiFi for anyone working between beach days, an in-room safe and a large smart TV with cable for slower evenings.

The trees in that view belong to ECOTICA: a 10-acre private rainforest reserve on a wildlife corridor in the heart of Manuel Antonio. Howler monkeys and white-faced capuchins cross the canopy, sloths settle in for hours, and toucans and scarlet macaws appear on their own schedule, often in plain sight from the pool below.

Breakfast is included each morning at La POZA, the poolside restaurant and bar, served from 6 to 10 am, and the pool, the gym and Jungle Spa are a short walk away. YOLO Social serves lunch, dinner and live music into the evening, the front desk arranges tours and guided walks, and Manuel Antonio National Park and the beaches are just around the corner.
