Arenas del Mar features two restaurants located next to the two pools of the hotel. One is the formal restaurant El Mirador serving breakfast, lunch and dinner overlooking the Manuel Antonio National Park. The concept is fusion combining the great variety of vegetables, fruits, sea foods and meats with international spices and touches.

The other restaurant Playita is more informal and serves lunch and snacks next to the resort's private beach. The focus is on simple foods that are kicked up a notch such as wraps and cold sandwiches with typical Costa Rican flavors with a twist.
