Great 5 nights in drake bay

I was here for 5 nights oct 7-12 2022, the rainy season. -Arraigned airport pickup before i arrived. I arrived at airport and they were pulling up as i walked out the door. A very nice man that is the hotel driver, doesnt speak much english, drove me from airport to hotel, about 30-45 min drive depending on road conditions. We had to drive through a river that was not too deep, near airport. -The hotel was very nice, i was greeted by one of their sons that spoke english, as well as the mother and father who run the business. I paid with visa debit for the stay and cash for the driver. -Was shown to my cabin/bungalow. It was great, 3/4 sides is screen walls with curtains, a nice big bathroom, looks like brand new wood, 2 nice beds, even live flowers. The cabin has a balcony, with chairs and light, its nice for reading at night, view of surrounding forest/lawn. There is very nice flower bush right outside that humming birds love, you can hear/see a humming bird at least 1 every 10 min. The cabin is a short walk away from the main building, down a garden trail. Nice air flow because of the screens, and there is a ceiling fan too. Many outlets to charge things. -The food was GREAT. I am a very picky eater, i eat with my eyes (like a bird as my mother said), and i am mostly vegetarian except for some deep fried fish and chicken because it is good, they asked me what i perfered, and altho there was a language barrior as the mother and father dont speak english, they understood my meals and made a effort to give me food i would like. Fresh juice daily. -Drake bay is about 1 hour walk, with a bridge and one steep hill (the river crossing is only on the way to airport). Its a scenic walk, i did it a few times. Most times it was raining, but still nice. Or the hotel offers drives for a cost. They did tell me that i would get one free transport to and from town per day.

This is good stuff still, not bad: -The hotel arraigned my sierna station hike in the national park, as well as a night walk on the hotel grounds in the forest. We communicated with my google translate app as well as with the english speaking son on whatsapp. -The bug control was amazing in the rooms. I dont know what they were useing to kill bugs, but i never saw a living bug in the room, they were all dead. I would shower and their would be a dead spider on the sink that wasnt there a few min before. As well as some ants that seem to die as soon as they enter room. It was very reassuring that no giant bugs would get me while i sleep. -The ride back to the airport was a adventure. The SUV had a flat tire, then a hotel friend picked me up to take me to airport but the river near airport was too high this time, so i had to walk through the river above my waist with hotel driver carrying my luggage across. and then a 3rd vehicle took me to the airport. But i really respect and had a good time with the hotel driver, he stayed with me on beach to make sure i got on the boat for tour, and helped me and carried my luggage across that river. He was great. -I think everyone in Town knows everyone else. -when i was sea sick they were accommodating and gave me fruit in my cabin. The negatives: -Not really any, There was a bit of a suprise charge when i was leaving because the drive from hotel to beach for the park tour cost money even though i only used the free ride 2 out of 4 days, and they seemed to have planned the pickup to the beach instead of the town so that the ride was not a free ride, the tour left from both places. but they didnt charge me for laundry service. -There was a power and cell phone outage for a few hours, but that was understandable as there was a big storm here and hurricane just north of costa rica. - slight lack of english, but i also lack spanish, google translate app to the rescue.

Exceptionally nice staff, beautiful landscape, tranquil environment, awesome private cabañas.

Exceptionally nice and helpful staff, shared their kitchen, booked us excursions, upgraded our room, beautiful landscape.

Second floor rooms with separate bathrooms was awkward but they upgraded us to the private cabaña so it was all good. Lots of bugs.

Okay

Our host family was very nice and pleasant. There is but one person in the family who speaks English. Our breakfast was delicious we also ate in one dinner which was OK. Room nice and clean no A/C but hardly needed in the mountains. There is a fan.

The property is way up in the mountains only accessible by the family car. Walking to the village or beaches is not possible you need a four wheel drive car if attempting on your own. The room/cabin has no chairs neither any hooks or hangers for wet clothing.

Very good

This place is not where the arrow on booking.com says it is. This doesn't matter really as the owner was happy to drive us to the beach etc and pick us up for free.
