Strandhotels in Drake Bay

'We were prepared for no hot water, no AC, no cell service, but we were not prepared for the overall shady communication, vibes and charges. We booked this hotel to be close to Corcovado, and booked a tour with the hotel. When we asked for details, they said they said that the communication from Expedia was poor, and they only booked our snorkeling tour. We asked to cancel the snorkeling because the national park was our priority. She said they couldn't because they already bought the tickets....

'We zijn hier min of meer gestrand, en wat hebben we het getroffen! Lieve mensen die je overal bij willen helpen, zelf met suggesties komen. Echt een thuis gevoel!'

You have to take some stairs for some rooms up hill so keep that in mind. '
