February 2, 2018 at 5:50 AMThey have Wal-Mart’s at the main cities. Not Manuel Antonio but before you get to Manuel Antonio and get anything you want as if you were here in the U.S. expect to pay a couple of bucks more for certain things such as products from the U.S. but they have most stuff that you find back home.

April 27, 2015 at 12:21 PMWe are going to Manuel Antonia area this summer. Can you tell me if we will be able to get soy milk there?
Tks, Tracie
Sammi says
April 27, 2015 at 3:47 PMHi Tracie, yes you can find soy milk in most supermarkets. It is very $$$ though!
Tracie says
April 28, 2015 at 8:45 AMThank you. What about perfume and die free laundry detergeant? I have to use something like tide free for my daughter.

April 28, 2015 at 11:33 AMI have seen Tide in a few supermarkets but I’m not sure about die free. They might have one here that’s a local brand but I’m sure in the city at least you can find something equivalent. Perfume is super easy to find here, they sell it in all the beauty stores, the mall and even the pharmacy (I think).
