THE FOOD WAS INCREDIBLE! The staff was kind and accommodating, and helped us plan our travel, day trips, and solo hikes. We got the peaceful get-away that we were looking for. This was exactly what we needed to relax and feel refreshed! Thank you all of a wonderful vacation!

Lodge is right in the middle of nature. Monkeys, beautiful birds, ocean beach. Well you get the picture. The food at the lodge was outstanding.

We stayed in the tents "glamping" style. Beds were comfortable and the fan made the temperature just right for a comfortable night's sleep.

beautiful place - paradise like with a fantastic view and beautiful flowers everywhere Fantastic breakfast and very friendly staff

Lise

The location was absolutely amazing. The views were beautiful and the beach was a short walk away. We stayed in the cottage which was a short walk up hill from the dining room. The boat transfer was smooth and not a problem although we would advise not taking huge suitcases as the beach landing is not suited to such luggage. As we were there in low season there were never more than 6 people staying which meant it was peaceful but sometimes conversation at the shared dining table could be a bit awkward. David, the owner, was helpful but not overbearing.

The Hotel is amazing, it sits above a beautiful beach and it's close from the path that connects Drake Bay village to all the other beaches. The staff is very friendly and helpful, I specially liked the fact that they treat the guests by their first name! The food was absolutely amazing!

The food was fresh and simple and plentiful but not as good as we were expecting based on some of the reviews. We stayed in green season and therefore the weather was a bit unpredictable but that was to be expected and not the fault of the lodge.

“Hidden Paradise!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Stayed 2 nights
Las Caletas is a little paradise between Bahia Drake and Corcovado. That you can only access this hotel by boat gives you the feeling that you are indeed traveling to a lost island and the boat trip is a nice way to explore that mangroves on your way. Las Caletas is run by David and his incredibly friendly team (first and foremost Daniel and Brian) - they always went the extra mile to make us feel welcome and comfortable (thank you for the wonderful Valentine dinner!). The shared dinners in the evening are a great way to get in touch with the few other travelers of the lodge to share tips and experiences of how to explore this unique place in the South of Costa Rica. My husband and myself stayed in one of the "tents" (it feels more like glamping :)) and we really enjoyed it. My parents stayed in one of the rooms which was comfortable and spacious. We wholeheartedly recommend this lodge to everyone who wants to enjoy a peaceful time in one of the most beautiful corners of the world!

Lovely staff but food was very bland and uninteresting compared to other meals we ate during our trips. Fruit is served on a plate and I would have preferred more. Expensive compared to other places we booked.

Excellent property, well maintained with incredible views. Living for a few days with the sounds of the rain forest was a fantastic experience. Great place to relax and accessible for tours. Its quite a fun ride to reach the lodge and they carry the bags till the room, which is extremely helpful. We had some fantastic meals - even taking into consideration certain dietary requirements. The communal dinner setting is good fun. The staff is very friendly and professional. They keep the lodge and the rooms clean and in great condition.

Las Caletas is located in Drake Bay and has a beautiful view over the pacific. Rooms are basic but okay. Breakfast and dinner are very good! You can book tours via Picolina Tours and Las Caletas is very willing to help you out.

A little more flexibility of the time lunch could be taken, as there are no other options to eat out nearby.
Peaceful and tranquil setting in lush rainforest gardens with amazing views. The chef and all the food was outstanding. A packed lunch was always on offer too. Close to rainforest walks and access to the national park. The night walk is highly recommended.
