Guillermo is a great host and the staff are fabulous....very friendly and very helpful with bags, advice, wildlife detection! etc.
You're surrounded by forest but with easy access to the beach, just down the hill. We didn't find a profusion of wildlife as some reviews imply, but if you're reasonably patient, toucans will appear and monkeys will swing by, plus maybe an occasional macaw.
Breakfast was very good, dinner was fine, we missed lunch most days. Excellent value if you can accept a few privations.

Lucas greeted my family on the beach upon our arrival from a tour of Corcovado National Park and quickly arranged for a car to drive us the short distance to Bella Vista. He and his extended family were welcoming and cooked hearty meals during our stay. A highlight was his demonstration of making coconut cookies from scratch. Delicious!

Great place to stay if you want to visit Corcovado national park. Not only Corcovado is worthwhile but Drake Bay itself as well. I would recommend taking the boat from Sierpe to Drake Bay as it’s very convenient and the boat ride is extremely scenic!

Very nice peaceful place, at the grounds of a friendly costarican family, right on the edge of the rainforest. Beautiful Ganadito beach is at walking distance. The cabin where we slept was new and fine.

The flora and fauna of adjacent parks is amazing but you must visit them with a guide for the appropriate access and to really appreciate what is there. Drake is a the ideal place from which to reach the parks. We travelled to Drake Bay by intercity bus from San Jose and connected with the ferry. The "wet landing" was a first for us - a genuine adventure where the ferry assistants wade your luggage to shore on their shoulders and the passengers just focus on getting themselves to shore. The ferry takes an hour or so through amazing mangroves. Make sure to tell your hotel to book you on the ferry to avoid misunderstanding -- there are only two ferries per day and you don't want to lose a day/night in Sierpe.
The park is amazing --book a tour well in advance as daily entries are limited. Access to the park is by boat. Birds galore, several species of monkey including the mighty howler, tapirs, two species of ant eater, and many more creatures. We did the snorkeling tour too which was also amazing. We saw deep sea turtles, sharks, manta rays and a plethora of species of fish. Beautiful, pristine and rules about not interrupting wildlife. For example, we were watching a turtle and she started to rise for air and we all had to move back 4-6 metres and we had the joy of then watching her float on the surface for a while and just rock in the waves. Being herself and breathing without feeling anxious

The town, while not a secret by any means, has still avoided the trappings of rampant tourisim. There is a local vibe that is genuine and refreshing.. I like that the town is still a bit rough on the edges.
The abundance of world class outdoor experiences is the icing on the cake.

It is a very peaceful place, we definitely recommend it. Beautiful walking trail to san josecito, magnificent view, good restaurants (kalaluna & coco cafe), a lot of activities. You have access to the Corcovado NP, waters are calmer than most beaches in costa rica (good for swimming). Snorkeling tour to cano was great!

It is a very remote, relaxed place.
It is a very remote, relaxed place. Great to experience the simple life. There is a beautiful hiking trail along the coast line to more secluded beaches. Many activities to be done from the beach, including day trips to Corcovado national park, night tours, snorkelling trips.
The beach itself is not amazingly beautiful- it’s not pristine white sand and clear waters- it has a very rustic feeling and there are no beach bars. But there are places to eat just up from the beach or grab a drink from the supermarket. We saw a lot of wildlife! Scarlet macaws are flying around. There’s a nice restaurant called Lookout restaurant with good food and a great view over the bay.
The hotel was located walking distance from the beach. Our host, Yami, had us picked up from the boat when we arrived and brought us to our room. We had a room with a private bathroom and it was very clean and comfortable:-) There were nice touches in the room including fresh flowers, water, & juice. We ate a delicious breakfast which was served on an open patio with a lovely view of the beach! Yami accommodated us with luggage storage and transported us back to the beach to catch our boat when we departed. It was perfect for us.
Karen and co were exceptionally helpful. Before we even arrived they arranged for pick-up from Drake bay air strip, they had our room ready early, they happily held our bags whilst we went on an overnight excursion to Corcovado, and arranged for our boat transfer to sierpe
- Great communication via WhatsApp throughout
- Beautiful room and incredible view from our balcony - we saw macaws, toucans, iguanas and more from our room
- Great location close to the start of the Drake bay walking trail and not far from shops and restaurants
With a perfect location at 10 min by foot from the beach and the center of the village, while being situated in the middle of nature, this place really deserves its name! The hosts are very considerate, and they helped us in everything to make our journey the best stay ever: driving us from the beach to the hotel, booking the boat and tours for us, even lending us some cash because we ran out of it (be careful, no ATM in Drake Bay!). We could not have imagined a better experience in Corcovado!
I've stayed at a few Drake Bay hotels in this price range, and Pacheco is my favorite of them. The location is great--short walk to restaurants and about as close to the beach as you can get. Room was basic (as expected; you don't come to Drake Bay to hang out in your hotel room) but nicer than other properties at this price range. The best part is the awesome ocean view from the hammock on your patio, so you don't even need to make the 2-minute walk to the beach to enjoy the Bay.
Jonathan and Edith and the rest of the staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel like guests in their home. The food was good and the surroundings were lush and beautiful. It was a short walk down to the beach, which was almost always deserted. Their pets are friendly and well cared for. The whole visit to Bahia Drake was a real adventure. Expect to get your feet wet when you disembark the water taxi from Sierpe but that's just the beginning of the fun!
The location is top! If you wonder if you'll get a good view, don't worry, every bumgalow has its own unique viewpoint soot towards the sea.
The food is delicious, both in the hotel and in the restaurant (and once again great views).
I really recommend this place, the people take great care of you and the rooms are so amazing you can sit on your balcony and observe all types of birds (including toucans).
Great hotel in Drake bay, just a 5 min walk to the main beach. Spacious room, feels very new, great shower and bathroom. The breakfast was very tasty. The Pool is also very nice. Very friendly and helpful staff, organised a Taxi from the airport und when leaving with the boat to Sierpe they brought us to the beach so we dont have to carry our stuff.
Would definetly come again, everything was perfect.
Casa el Tortugo is in a great location in Drake's Bay, very close to the see but in a quieter area. Great bird life in the grounds. Teresa and her family and staff were great - they booked our boats and tours for us and did early breakfasts. Rooms were very spacious (we had 2 triples for 4 of us). The restaurant was also excellent and well priced. AC was a must!!
The location in Drake is really good, as its on a steep hill and Casa Jade is not far from the beach. There are also lots of nice cafés and restaurants around. The room is good, with a large comfortable bed and a bunkbed. The room has airco and a fridge and coffee/tea maker, and a nice little patio with view of Drake to drink a beer in the afternoon!
Very comfortable hotel about 7/8mins walk from the beach. Large room with air-con. Simple but good breakfast (not a buffet) provided by the on-site restaurant which is not owned by the hotel. The restaurant owner is exceptionally accommodating- producing breakfast as early as 5.15am for those goon tours. Hotel has a good pool.
The locatio is supreme. We stayed at room no. 5, so we also had a little plunge pool on the deck looking over the drake bay and cool ourselves. A lot of animals around: scarlet macaws, toucans, colibbries and others. Breakfast is good servers in a beautiful balcony with a view.
In the room a kitchenette with micro and fridge
The location of Sunset Lodge is located in Drake Bay, slightly outside of the small seaside town, the gateway to Corcovado Park. Daily birds arrived in the garden area. From the 2nd floor deck, we could spot many of them: toucans, tanagers, hummingbirds. The air con worked well in both bedrooms.
The Chef at the hotel restaurant was top notch. He spoke English and was very receptive to our dietary needs. He was a fantastic cook and we ended up eating there many times: sea bass, Mahi-Mahi, salmon, fantastic sauces that made everything fabulous.
Drake Bay is on the edge of the jungle. We had an awesome time here. The view from the restaurant is really stunning. When you are taking early morning trip to Corcovado, location is very convenient, with just about 3 minutes to the beach meeting point.
The hotel was located close to town but far enough away to feel private. The ocean view was stunning. The wild life was great! Room was clean. The restaurant Claudio's served delicious food. We really enjoyed our stay.
