Great breakfast from pre dawn fitting in when most tours leave, and in a great balcony space. Super clean. Be aware when booking on Expedia for here the payment is not processed and the price quoted is for cash only otherwise it is 13 percent more. Just up the hill in main town so plenty of dining options.

Great

We loved our stay at Cabinas Pura Vida. Very clean. Our host, Norlyn, cooked us an excellent breakfast every morning. He was helpful and friendly if we needed anything. Property is small but very well maintained. Thank you Norlyn for a wonderful time in Bahia Drake. Pura Vida!

Norlyn our host was extremely communative and helpful with our trip planing and on arrival. Norlyn helped us to arrange our airport transfer, Cano Island trip and water taxi out to Sierpe. He even gave us a lift down to the beach for these activities. Wonderful breakfasts, different everyday while watching colourful birds om the feeder and flying by. Special place, affordable, clean, safe and walking distance to restaurants and shops.

The stay was amazing. The host was wonderful and helped us organize dinner reservations and tours. He was very helpful. The rooms were very clean along with the whole property. The breakfast was wonderful and he was very accommodating to our large group. There was a lot of wildlife we saw from the common area including many birds and monkeys. It was a wonderful place to stay.

They had a nice breakfast. The room was as described. They did let us leave our vehicle parked there during our tour. Water is not potable. Although my reservation specifically had my children listed, they made me pay extra for them once we arrived. Definitely got ripped off, but what could I do since we were there?! It felt dishonest and I didn’t even get a receipt, the guy just pocketed my cash they insisted we pay with. I tried to email and communicate with the owner ahead of time about a need during our stay. Despite her kind email about reaching out should we need anything, she said she couldn’t respond and never replied further. Communication was poor even once we arrived.

Norlyn met us on the beach when our boat arrived and gave us a ride to his B&B. Comfortable and clean room. Common area has a shared refrigerator. On our second day we had an early departure for Corcovado and Norlyn served us an early breakfast and gave us a ride with our luggage. Great value!

Clean room, good breakfast, good AC (needed ans very humid weather), annd owner Norlyn was very helpful including picking us up at the beach when we arrived and taking us down to our tours.

We really appreciated that Norlyn arranged a taxi to take us to and from the airport. When it worked in his schedule, he also drove us down to the beach to catch the boat for one of our excursions, though the walk from Las Cabinas to the beach wasn't far at all. The breakfast served was amazing and the dining area was great for looking out to watch the birds.

Excellent accommodations, super clean, comfortable, and delicious breakfast. Easy walking distance from restaurants, beach and tour companies. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful!

We didn’t end up staying here because the owner said he “sent us a message” that he didn’t have room for us. We didn’t receive his so called message until we showed up at the property and he suddenly came up with the message and said it was our fault that we didn’t get it. He was incredibly condescending and rude. DONT STAY AT THIS PROPERTY!

Everything about our stay was great and staff recommended some great tours.

Super warm welcome. Lovely terrace with nice green view; we chilled in the hammocks with a book. Kitchen available for those wanting to cook. Very clean and basic accommodation. Nice ambiance.

Everyone was very friendly and helpful. They helped us register for a tour on short notice, and went above and beyond to help us have a great trip.

Excellent breakfast every day. Kimberley was very kind and helpful. We had an amazing time in Drake bay and will return for sure.

Staff was extra friendly and helpful. There's a good panaderia close by. You're just far away from the town center that it's quiet, but still convenient.

My room was clean, but slightly musty smelling. The AC worked well and the bed was sufficiently comfortable that I had no trouble sleeping. Like many hotels in Costa Rica, the hot water was more like warm water, but given the air temperature, that’s not a huge deal. Breakfast was prompt and tasty. The staff was very accommodating and helpful.

We loved this place. Kimberly at the reception desk is the sweetest most efficient person you can find. We were there with our two teenagers and we all loved the place. Very clean and cozy. They even offered to wash our clothes after they got stinky hiking in they rain. They did everything and more to help us. I got injured in the forest (sprained ankle) and Kimberly and the owners family were truly concerned and caring, they even offered a ride in Kimberly’s car to go to the doctor. They made breakfast ( delicious)super early to accommodate the time of our insanely early tours. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Kimberly was wondering and was able to pick us up and take us to the airport.

Feb 2022. The room was clean and safe. Not luxurious, but serviceable and perfectly acceptable. The staff was helpful and friendly, although with slightly less English proficiency than most other places I stayed in CR. They are ready and willing to provide booking services for many of the various tour offerings in the area. There is limited off-street parking but there is ample street parking adjacent. The immediate vicinity of the property is pleasant enough, but does not boast any remarkable views. Less than 1 km to most anywhere in Drake. The open-air dining area was nice, and the included breakfasts were excellent.
