“Well-priced accommodation just outside Drake Bay”

Like: The room was spacious and clean and situated in a nice garden. It is a little distance outside of Drake, however, given the very reasonable price point the location is fair. Also, Carla who met us on arrival was very friendly. Improvement: We had booked for 2 days so that we could store our luggage in the room during an overnight to Corcovado. The issue we had is that the room did not have any windowpanes. From the photos this was not visible. Jose advised that they have 24hr security on the property and this is not a risk in Drake Bay, however, being from South Africa (where this would not be possible) we needed to seek an alternative stay so that we had a secure lock up for all our luggage. José did advise that our feedback was noted and something he will consider as this could impact other guests, similar to ourselves, traveling from less safe countries.

“Pura Vida in a beautiful environment with great hosts! Thank you.”

The drive toward Drake Bay is a challenging one and you need 4x4 because of road conditions. We had an SUV and our return was difficult. The cabin is 15 minutes from Drake Bay and easy to reach from there. They booked our tour to Corcovado and Carlos lead the way to the departure point on his motorbike. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of fresh fruit. Carlos and his wife are great hosts. He prepared a suptuous dinner for us, he took us on a hike to waterfalls (real somewhat challenging forest hike, not like Corcovado tour, way better), we swam at the falls. We suggested that a fridge and clothesline would be good additions, and the next day we had both. We had access to a well equipped kitchen. The cabin is new, super clean, simple and on beautiful grounds you can enjoy from your balcony. We truly enjoyed our stay and the special attention given by all.
