<h2>Shana By the Beach: An Ideal Escape&nbsp;</h2>Shana sits atop the hills of Quepos Point, surrounded by lush vegetation while providing expansive views of the Pacific Ocean. Its peaceful atmosphere and on-site facilities make for a good night’s sleep in an unassuming space with private beach access.The Manuel Antonio area is the place where the rainforest and beach meet, and Shana showcases this perfectly. It’s nestled in the rocky hills of Quepos point, away from the busy world outside and surrounded by jungle trees and well-kept gardens.It’s also located 10 minutes away from the Manuel Antonio National Park and a 15-minute drive from Quepos, the most important town in the area.&nbsp;<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018673/shana_hotel_general_view_manuel_antonio_b0cd4e4f9b.jpg" alt="shana-hotel-general-view-manuel-antonio.jpg" srcset="https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018674/thumbnail_shana_hotel_general_view_manuel_antonio_b0cd4e4f9b.jpg 234w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018677/small_shana_hotel_general_view_manuel_antonio_b0cd4e4f9b.jpg 500w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018677/medium_shana_hotel_general_view_manuel_antonio_b0cd4e4f9b.jpg 750w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018676/large_shana_hotel_general_view_manuel_antonio_b0cd4e4f9b.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw"><h3>A Haven of Relaxation &amp; Nature</h3>Shana’s relaxed, casual atmosphere makes relaxation possible. Here, the surrounding views sit front and center. Sit back and admire both the forest and the ocean from the balcony in the room.Another way to commune with nature is to take a stroll down to the coast. This is the opportunity to enjoy one of the hotel’s best perks: private beach access.Descend from the top of the hill down a nature trail shaded by jungle trees and tropical flowers. The path is full of opportunities to admire the local wildlife. Keep an eye out for the toucans, sloths, and monkeys that move among the trees.After the walk down the slope, the forest opens to Biesanz beach. This beach has soft waves and dark, volcanic rocks dotted. Explore the area, splash in the water, or sunbathe in the sand for a soothing experience.Keeping up with the overall ambiance, the rooms are also designed to be hidden spaces where you can loosen up without excessive clutter in the way. These modernized accommodations are comfortable and spacious, offering views of the surrounding vegetation and ocean.&nbsp;<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018674/shana_hotel_single_bed_room_balcony_overview_manuel_antonio_4d95f25703.jpg" alt="shana-hotel-single-bed-room-balcony-overview-manuel-antonio.jpg" srcset="https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018674/thumbnail_shana_hotel_single_bed_room_balcony_overview_manuel_antonio_4d95f25703.jpg 234w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018677/small_shana_hotel_single_bed_room_balcony_overview_manuel_antonio_4d95f25703.jpg 500w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018677/medium_shana_hotel_single_bed_room_balcony_overview_manuel_antonio_4d95f25703.jpg 750w,https://res.cloudinary.com/vacationscostarica-com/image/upload/v1651018676/large_shana_hotel_single_bed_room_balcony_overview_manuel_antonio_4d95f25703.jpg 1000w," sizes="100vw"><h3>Top-Notch Facilities</h3>The rest of the hotel has a laid-back attitude that allows you to enjoy the vacation at your own pace.The pool is where most guests want to hang out during their stay, as it offers a refreshing lounging area with a deck to sit and sunbathe.

Perfect first time visit to Costa Rica! Planning with Felipe Martinez at Costa Rican Vacation was a breeze! He was prompt and super informative. When the time arrived, the travel was easy and very organized. All of the excursions that were recommended were top notch. Using Costa Rican Vacations and Felipe made all of the trip planning easy. Highly recommend.
