Living close to nature in a lush and green environment. Awakening to the sound of birds and howling monkeys. Very good and tasty food. Helpful and very serviceminded staff.

We stayed for 3 nights at Drake Bay River View. When we met Olman, the property manager, in town & were escorted to the property, he said “Welcome to paradise “ & it WAS paradise. Where do I begin, the grounds are beautiful, there is a river fed by mountain rain water & a natural pool has been created by the falling water. You can go down there & swim , lay in a hammock, or sit by the river. The staff do an outstanding job of cleaning. The room had fresh flowers, well decorated & the towels are high end quality. Breakfast are served to your liking. Olman was incredibly hospitable. He was like our personal concierge. He booked excursions for us, made recommendations for restaurants in the evening & booked reservations at the restaurants for us. He met us at the ocean beach when we were done with excursions to see how we were doing & if we had any needs. He said that River View will transport quests if they do not have a car. He also offers to pick up food from restaurants & bring to your room if you would like. All of the restaurants that we ate at in town were very good. The location is only 10 minutes from downtown, which I thought was great to be away from the crowd but nearby.

Elmer and all the volunteers made our stay very comfy. The place is absolutely fenomenal. We brought our own food to cook. Sometimes we had to waite until the staff was finished cooking. But that was no problem. Cooking is on wood fire. This isnt the place for luxury so dont expect this, but you will be rewarded with a touch in the live of an real costarican farm. I would recommend it to everyone. There is a river where you can swim, waterfalls and do especially the night tour.

You are in the middle of the undisturbed nature. That's how the paradise looks like, feels, and sounds as the nights and days here.

The whole experience was amazing. It is a serious adventure, involving a place ride, taxi ride that literally went over rivers and a 30 minute hike- with gear. I am not sure I would have done it (with partner who has bad knees and 9 yo) if I had known how hard it was to get to- but it was so worth it. Ricardo was so full of life and generosity. John always had plenty of time to help us. In addition to keeping the space spotless, Mar even came up with a birthday cake when we needed one! To be clear- you are staying in tents in the jungle. There are insects. The food is expensive. Your clothes never dry. But you are also on the beach in a glorious, amazing place.
