"Pros: The drive toward Drake Bay is a challenging one and you need 4x4 because of road conditions. We had an SUV and our return was difficult. The cabin is 15 minutes from Drake Bay and easy to reach from there. They booked our tour to Corcovado and Carlos lead the way to the departure point on his motorbike. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of fresh fruit. Carlos and his wife are great hosts. He prepared a suptuous dinner for us, he took us on a hike to waterfalls (real somewhat challenging forest hike, not like Corcovado tour, way better), we swam at the falls. We suggested that a fridge and clothesline would be good additions, and the next day we had both. We had access to a well equipped kitchen. The cabin is new, super clean, simple and on beautiful grounds you can enjoy from your balcony. We truly enjoyed our stay and the special attention given by all.
Cons: The toilet needs attention because the flap stays open and it does not refill unless you open the tank and pysh the flap. Easy fix once you know. Also so far credit card payment is not accepted althought the Booking.com site states no cash payment, you do need to bring cash." ~Claire
"Pros: Nice appartment. We choose the largest one. This is on 1st floor. Clean but sober. Beds were hard but not unconvertable.
From the apprtment you can see ara's, toucans, parrots and all sorts of birds.
Cons: Road to drake bay is hard and bumpy. You need 4x4 to get there.
All excursions are pricy, and the only way to get into the jungle is by tourguide. These are slow, crowded and stopping at everything mildly interesting." ~M
