Culinary Delight

“The dining experience at Drake Bay Getaway was nothing short of lovely! Each meal was carefully crafted using locally sourced, fresh ingredients that were both healthy and delicious. I loved that Jens mentioned you could stay for 13 days without ever having the same meal. The culinary creativity was such a treat! I often caught myself reminiscing about the meals long after returning home.” view full review

Unique Eco-Lodging

“I was absolutely enchanted by the Heliconia cabin! It provided an very nice amount of privacy and was beautifully designed, featuring handmade teak furniture and an open space concept. The double sliders allowed the serenity of nature to fill the room, making it an lovely experience to sleep with the sounds of the rainforest surrounding us every night.” view full review

Open-Air Bliss

“The large bathroom with its two rain showers and outdoor views was a true highlight of my stay. I felt like I was showering in the midst of the rainforest with panoramic views of the ocean and trees. It was an invigorating experience to be in such close contact with nature while maintaining comfort.” view full review

Comfy Sanctuary

“The bedroom in the cabin was absolutely perfect for relaxation. With a comfortable bed surrounded by nature and ample space, it turned out to be my sanctuary after a day filled with adventures. I appreciated the thoughtful design, which incorporated open airflow, allowing for a very refreshing and restful sleep. It was a fantastic place to unwind after each exciting day.” view full review
