One of Costa\u00a0Rica&#8217;s smallest national parks is without questions one of the most exciting to see.

This is quite the difference in size but they say &#8220;good things come in small packages&#8221; as is the case with Manuel Antonio National Park. The national Park of Manuel Antonio is also located at the end of a peninsula. The better portion of the length of this peninsula is now hotels, condos, and properties looking to get the best view of the protected national park while keeping their distance to help keep it pristine and in the best of conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The Manuel National Park is closed on mondays in order to allow the wildlife, trails, and foliage to have it&#8217;s natural way without visitors. During the Mondays in the area there is still plenty to do and see with sea-kayak tours, ziplines, ATV&#8217;s, sailing, and just relaxing at some of the most luxurious hotels in all of Costa Rica or just chilling at a <a href=\"http:\/\/propertiesincostarica.com\/properties\/luxury_vacation_rental_in_manuel_antonio.html\">6 bedroom house rental<\/a> with startling views of the deep blue pacific.<\/p>\n<p>by\u00a0Rod Martin<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being on the list of Forbe Magazines most beautiful National Park&#8217;s in the world\u00a0isn&#8217;t a bad way to start the week for Manuel Antonio National Park in Costa Rica.
