“First of all I would like to thank Josue, Teresa and the rest of their lovely family for making our stay exceptional!
This is a tico family run business, so your money will go to local people, not just another foreign corporation.
The lodges are stunning and very private. They have a relaxing decking area with chairs, table and hammocks. The room itself was very big and had lots of useful shelves/floating tables. We had a mini fridge/freezer in our room, which was handy to keep our water and beer cold. The bathroom was connected to our room and had hot water. Although the lodge had a rustic feel, it was very comfortable with many sockets and even strong wifi. There were three options available for breakfast, we only tried the typical tico breakfast and pancakes, both filling and delicious. The grounds were very well maintained and full of wildlife, we spotted loads of animals just chilling on our deck, or walking to the restaurant. The family who own the lodges, also run the nearby restaurant El Tortugo, which was also where we had breakfast. This restaurant was the best value for money in Drake Bay and also incredibly high quality. While we were there it was rated the best in Drake Bay on Tripadvisor. It was fun to eat while overlooking both a river and the beach. We enjoyed spotting the resident crocodile Pepe and the many birds and vultures on the beach. The staff was the highlight of our trip, we spent many hours talking to Josue about life in Drake Bay VS life in England. Teresa also kindly made us some sandwiches to take on a hike with us one morning. We extremely recommend you book any tours or excursions with them, as we made the mistake of using a local tour operator based on Tripadvisor reviews. It turns out that all the tour operators in Drake work with each other and they will merge groups of tourists as and when they need, so it's better to book with your lodge instead, as you will receive better communication and service.”
