Manuel Antonio has some wonderful places to stay! There are hotels and B&Bs to look at, as well as hostels and plenty of Airbnb's and VRBO's. Manuel Antonio is a very safe place, so hostels, Airbnb's/VRBO's are valid options. Hostels in Costa Rica as a whole are honestly very nice, and some even feel like mini resorts. The difference being that hostels offer not only private rooms, but also dormitory style rooms, and some may have shared (but well kept!) bathrooms. If your hostel has dorm rooms available, they will be a very budget friendly option, but for a little more money you can enjoy a private room.
Below are some options we have found for our guests!
Come join the party! This is the hotel where the wedding reception will take place! Nothing better than partying and having less than a minute walk to bed!

This is the hostel Caroline stayed in during her first visit to Manuel Antonio- about two years before she even knew Marco! Caroline had an amazing time in this hostel, making so many friends and memories. Though it is a hostel, this place is basically a mini resort! The restaurant is amazing, the staff will help with any and all local recommendations, and the location of the hostel is in the midst of the rainforest so you can see monkeys all the time!
