Don't just take our word for it... hear what guests and travel writers around the world have to say about Hotel La Mariposa!

"Astounding 360-degree panoramas may distract one from the excellent meals served in the open-air dining room. So captivating are the full-circle vistas that guests linger
long after the billiant colors of the sunset dissipate and the margaritas disappear."
-- Excerpt from the 2004 book, "1,000 Places To See Before You Die"

"I am staying at La Mariposa because it is quite simply one of the best hotels in the area and has just undergone a $1.4 million expansion that makes it even better. I make
daily pilgrimages to the park but am glad Mariposa awaits me at day's end."
-- Travel World News November, 2003

"The best view in town is at La Mariposa: a sweeping panorama of verdant hills and aquamarine Pacific."
-- Fodor's online 'Rants & Raves' 2004

"La Mariposa commands a mountain-to-the-sea vista of more than 270 degrees. Needless to say, the sunsets here are knockouts, and the daytime views are pretty captivating themselves."
-- Frommers 2004

"This small hotel probably has one of the finest views of the Pacific Ocean in the entire world."
-- Washington Times December 11, 2002

"Eden on a ridge, 550 feet above the ocean. From incredible sunsets to mountains and forests constantly changing colors, the panorama is unbelievable. Split level villas have hardwood floors, bamboo ceilings, stucco walls, painted tiles, skylights, colorful tropical murals, and atrium gardens. The open-air restaurant serves delicious continental menu." -- Condé Nast Traveler
