Vista Drake Lodge♡

Good location but with very old facilities

6.0

The place has a good location in the city, but all the facilities (kitchen and appliances) are very old and nothing like the photos. Also the hosts don’t give any information about the place and activities…. just give you the key and you are on your own.

Ça a été très compliqué pour avoir notre chambre (1- parce que Google Map ne nous amenait pas au bon endroit; 2- parce que la personne a la réception ne parlait pas anglais, ni français; 3- parce que notre chambre n’était pas prête même si l’heure d’arrivée était passée). Nous avions pris 2 nuits et nous avons manqué de papier de toilette….. cela dit, l’emplacement est pratique, avec cuisine complète et salle de lavage dans notre villa avec balcon. Endroit propre.

It’s funky but great to have both AC and a mosquito net. Basic washroom with a cold shower. Sometimes a bit noisy in the morning when all the atv’s and motorcycles start but that’s because the locals are up even earlier getting ready for the day’s tourist expeditions. Close to restaurants and the beach. Would definitely stay again

Very noisy, the reception area was right under our room and there were chinks of light coming through the floorboards as well into the next room. You could actually see into the next room The water shut off randomly but the AC was awesome. Pretty much what you would expect for under $50/night.

Vista Drake - Emilio is amazing.

We stayed for 6 nights in July 2023. Emilio handled all the logistics (pickup from airport, reservations for 3 dive-snorkel trips, Corcovado tour, boat back to Sierpe) and answered multiple questions prior to arrival about what things were needed. Cabin AC worked, beds comfortable, views were amazing. Saw iguanas, monkeys, parrots on property. Emilio provides breakfast (fruit, cereal, eggs, coffee, tea, juice) and unlimited drinking water in kitchen for guests. Tall rubber boots available for jungle tour. Central location in the village above the beach where tours start and within walking distance to multiple restaurants and stores was worth the occasional truck/motorcycle noise below the cabana on the main (dirt) road through town. Having walked all over during our stay, including out to some of the more secluded properties with pools, we would opt to stay here again. With the beach so close, no need for a pool.

The perfect location with a view of the ocean while nestled in the jungle where we saw monkees, scarlet macaws, toucans, and heard the sounds of the jungle all day long! Emilio, the owner treats all of his guests like family preparing delicious breakfasts daily while providing anything you might need during your stay. We will certainly return to Drake Bay and stay at his lodge again! Don't miss a wonderful vacation and experience!
