Unforgettable Nature Experience: Casa Bosque Balcony

Reviewed By scotte278

Pedro found us on the beach and drove us the short but steep trip up where we were staying near the main house: the "Casa Bosque" or "Forest House". It doesn't look like much upon arrival besides being adjacent to some trees near the driveway and having an elevated, inclined ramp walkway leading to the door. Inside is an airy cabin with a double bed, two twin beds, an adjoining bathroom and kitchenette. There's two big windows and two ceiling fans, the latter we used on high basically the whole time while inside during the day because it was so hot. The view from the balcony is gorgeous, looking kind of north out over Drake Bay. It's relatively secluded, with lots of vegetation and trees, which on the second day meant we had a bunch of monkeys jumping from our roof to branches right next to us. It was stunning to see them so close, and I've shared a picture of them and a big iguana that was constantly hanging out in one of the trees. The sounds of the birds and forest are almost constant which I loved. We were warmly greeted by Yami, the hostess, and she suggested we connect via whatsapp so she could help arrange tours or answer questions which was nice. She got us a couple spots on a snorkel tour the next day even though it had seemed they were all booked up, which was super helpful. We arranged breakfast timing and whether we wanted gallo pinto or pancakes that way, too. Yami, Pedro, and the rest of the staff are kind and accommodating. I need to lose some weight so the short walk up the steep hill a couple times a day got me closer to that, but since it's so steep and someone in a wheelchair wouldn't be able to access the Casa Bosque I wanted to make a note of it. Overall you do feel like you are suddenly away from the beach and high in a forest, and for the nature immersion alone I'd give it 5 stars. The hospitality was excellent and room had what we needed to ensure we could make the most of it. Thank you Yami and Pedro!

Hotel Margarita

Wow, way more than expected

Reviewed By UgoIgo

We just stayed one night but plan to return. The room was large, clean, comfortable and tastefully finished. The manager and staff went out of their way to be helpful and easily spoke English with us. The pool was small but refreshing, and Dixon’s breakfast was great

Nice but basic. Stayed 3 days and was ok but wouldn’t stay longer. Food portion sizes rather small. Friendly service for sure. But then there are not many great hotels/accommodations in Drakes Bay unless you pay over the odds. So if you come for 3 days it will be ok.

Father Son Fishing trip

Reviewed By Shuttcon

I brought my son and his friend to Drake Bay for a fishing trip and we were lucky enough to have chosen a nice family run lodge on the beach. We stayed in a large room with ocean view and woke up to white-faced monkeys, toucans and Macau’s every morning and the girls in the beach kitchen fed us 3 beautiful meals a day as if we were royalty. Love that place and the people that make it happen Charles

Just an ok place.

Reviewed By itikka2010

The place us by the road, a little uphill from the beach. There is no restaurant here, just a communal area where you can sit and a kitchen where you could maybe cook and store your things in the fridge. They serve ok breakfast here. Rooms had good AC and ok beds. They didn't gave drinkable water here as in so many Costa Rican places do. Booked a really good Corcovado day tour through this place run by Rancho Corcovado and guide Sandro who was great! The place has 2 dogs which bark quite a lot (as prob. all local dogs here). My biggest issue with this place was the apparent absent of staff on the premises during the night time which lead to their dogs barking sessions on several occasions every night. I can only imagine how bad the guests staying in the adjacent room to reception slept. (Actually it's now midnight and I again woke up because of the the dogs). Maybe for a local barking is not a problem but I can imagine that for most of the tourists it is. I felt that people managing/owning the place just don't care it that much: place lacked all the character of the place that you would love.

Noisy Place

Reviewed By NatureExplorerGal

Sadly I no longer like this lodging. Walls are thin and guests next door were frequently loud talkers. Staff were mostly rude this trip. Cleaning lady was only friendly on the mornings when she cleaned my room. She was on her cell talking loudly near my room regularly when she likely was expected to be working. One morning 3 staff were talking extremely loudly while I was eating breakfast. Due to the noise, I left 4 days early to go to a quieter place. They refused to give me any refund which is the first time I have not been given a refund anywhere in the country when I was not happy with the lodging.

The Sunset Tucano Lodge

Just and absolutely amazing place to stay

Reviewed By TimDidierL

Amazing location very close to the forest and beach is very close. Everyone is extremely friendly and made us feel very welcome. Food was so good and home cooked. They take you to the beach to get onto boats and even carry your luggage for you when you arrive and leave. The bungalows are great and stay cool all day.The views of the garden of the forest are ti die for. They helped us organise tours before we for there and the tours were also really good. The best part was having breakfasts with the hummingbirds. We also saw monkeys, Toucans and plenty of other birds from our hammock. Thank you to everyone for making our stay so wonderful

What a nice place to stay!

Reviewed By jamesguck

Nice place, roomy and nice rooms with hot shower, aircon and fan. Kitchen and fridge for everybody to use. Free bikes. The owner Marc was very friendly and helpful! He is from Florida so he speaks perfect english. He and his helpful and nice son Lee organized the whole trip to corcovado for us and made our stay a nice experience. They gave us many useful tips for our stay. They now have also two boats to sirena ranger station! So Puerto Jimenez is the best spot to go to the park. They have a bakery, a gas station, two grocery stores and working ATMs. There are not too many permissions to access the park so make shure to get them before you go. We definitely recommend Marcs Place and would love to come again. Don't forget your shoes outside, Laika - the lovely puppy dog loves to hide them ;o) Thank you for your nice place and your advice.
