Hotel Las Caletas Lodge

Magnifique séjour dans un endroit paradisiaque ! Le lieux est extraordinaire avec une forêt verdoyante et des plages superbes. Les repas servis sont littéralement à tomber ! Bravo au chef Eduardo! Le réceptionniste, Josué, est vraiment chalereux et souriant. Il est très à l'écoute et a été d'excellent conseil. Nous avons dormi dans la tente qui n'est pas la plus confortable des chambres, mais nous avons passé un séjour fantastique!

We had a beautiful view of the serene coast. We saw numerous animals just from our window and deck--more from the dining area!! The meals were out of this world--delicious, more than enough, great presentation, variety. We swam daily at the picturesque "private' beach. Ideal location with hiking trails abound! The best trail was to Rio Claro-clear water, hanging ropes, lush surroundings. Most important, Daniel, the manager was ever-present, friendly, giving advice and recommendations to keep you safe, entertained, and relaxed.

Just paradise! Staff are so friendly and helpful. Food was excellent and beautifully presented. Just stop outside the door to see Macaws, monkeys, Toucans and even a Sloth! This was a highlight of our travels so far in Costa Rica. Also I feel good value for your dollar. Def will recommend to my friends when I get home. Please remember that Drake Bay and Corcovado are quite remote. Don’t expect the fluff from a 5 star hotel. I love this place and hope to return one day. Special thanks to Yolanda and Daniel!

We had a wonderful time and TLC from the lodge. Breakfast and dinners were delicious and we received excellent help with booking excursions and general guidance. Note there is no a/c but the room temperature was fine at night and early morning.

Endroit paradisiaque, bonne nourriture. Très beau sentier. Accès difficile cependant par bateau. Très belle plage

Beautiful lodge in the jungle with a view of the Pacific. The rooms are simple, but very clean and as comfortable as can be without AC (but with a ceiling fan). Rates include a good breakfast and dinner. Daniel & team are super friendly and go out of their way to make your stay memorable. Great place to recharge and a good base for diving and Corcovado tours (which can pick you up from the beach).

We truly enjoyed our stay at Las Caletas. It is in a very beautiful and private location on a gorgeous cove (caleta) abounding with wildlife. The food was wonderful. Dinners were creative and beautifully presented. Lunches were traditional Costa Rican food and also very good. The staff was awesome, particularly Daniel the manager/consierge/waiter. Besides just being a great guy to talk to, his energy, attentiveness, attention to detail and concern for his guests and the staff were unparalleled by anything I have experienced in my many years traveling in Costa Rica. I highly recommend the whales and dolphins tour. The area has a year round megapod of 1000 spotted dolphins that is absolutely amazing to see, hear and swim with. We stayed in a tent which was plenty comfortable but nothing special. We had stayed in one there years ago. We will be back.

Amazing area with welcoming and helpful hosts.

Our adventure and stay at Las Caletas was one we will never forget. From the exciting boat trip to our own private beach and national park, to the great food and peacefulness. Highly recommend visiting this slice of paradise.

We took the late boat taxi because we drove from san jose (4:00) dont do this get the 11:00 boat ferry from sierpe because of tideflow Fredrico helped us up the rather steep incline to our room and was an amazing hracious host The property is located on a pristine beautiful hill that overlooks the amazing Drago bay We stayed 3 nights in a tent bungalow that we were so happy to have as it overlooked the bay JoAnna served us all of our meals and she is a precious Nica( female Nicaraguan ) and we fell in love with her We will go back for another visit with grand kids as this is good spot for all family or just as couples 3 days was a good amount of time for is to discover drago bay and would recommend no more than 4 We saw toucans and mcaws and many hummingbirds from the property Highly recommended

The site is absolutely amazing. There are many places in the Drake bay you can go for, but only one with breathtaking views from top of the small ridge where Las Caletas is situated. From the greetings to lodging, over layout of the facilities and cuisine on site, it is perfect. It provides you with a family establishment vibe-you are welcomed as a valued guest, and the staff is super courteous and professional. Federico is doing a superb job, catering to last minute wishes re: activities in the Osa peninsula, having a spotless hall/dining space. The cuisine they are able to provide in the middle of jungle is healthy, tasty and perfectly prepared. Johana who was attending to our needs during our stay is very professional too. We loved our stay very much, and would definitely recommend people wishing for some extraordinary experience. Again, the setting and the services provided are outstanding. If you are tired of large resorts, anonymous environment that treats you as one of thousands in the year, go to Las Caletas. You will receive superb service and spend the vacation with no more than 5 tables dining. We loved it (Perk1-many resorts/villas, are on the beach, which deprives you of the unique view and perspective, from the birds eye overlooking the environment. The beach you can reach in less than 2 minutes, though;) (Perk2-you can enjoy the fauna and flora from the comfort of your sunbathing seat that outperforms some national parks we visited)

I've never been heartbroken to leave a hotel before, but the beauty of Las Caletas--along with the kindhearted staff--made me want to move in permanently. The tent cabinas are immaculate and comfortable, with sweeping views of the ocean and jungle and incredible opportunities to spot macaws and toucans, monkeys and other wildlife. The meals are superb--the dinner chef is a master, and his desserts--as well as meat and vegetarian options--are delicious. The grounds are gorgeous, and every member of the lodge staff--from the delightful women in the kitchen to the charming waiter Danny and the truly lovely manager Federico--make one feel instantly at home. Don't miss the hour long walk to Rio Claro for freshwater swimming. An hour in the other direction, through the jungle, takes you past one stunning beach after another to the small town of Drake where you can eat, shop, and rent kayaks and paddleboards.

Amazing 3days at the Caletas lodge. The lodge is perfect for a family (3 kids from 11 to 13y) and ideally located in front of a secluded and beautiful beach. The owner David has been super helpful in recommending and organizing activities for our family. The room itself is super clean and functional but not luxurious (your are in the middle of the jungle though). Would definitely come back

We had a lovely stay for 5 nights in las caletas. The surrounding area is beautiful and full of wildlife. We were able to just walk out from the lodge along the coastal path. We also went diving to cano island and a trip to corcovado national park. All fantastic. Highly recommend las caletas if you are planning to visit drake bay. Much nicer than being in drake bay itself. The food is great.

Bel endroit, très isolé à 1 heure de marche de drake bay.

One of the most beautiful settings in the world. David looked after us really well.

Tolle Unterkunft direkt am Dschungel mit sehr netten Eigentümern. Das gemeinsame Essen morgens und abends hat uns auch sehr gut gefallen. Würden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen.

Eine Oase im Jungel mit unglaublichem Panorama, wunderschönem Strand und köstlichem Essen.

Deux jours absolument dépaysant. Un peu rustique mais très bon accueil par une équipe très professionnelle. David au petits soins pour ses hôtes. des visites merveilleuses dans le Corcovado. Superbes moments de détente.

The lodge was simple and perfect for a visit to the Osa Peninsula. David the main host was always informative and helpful. Gregorio the guide was also very helpful and informative. The lodge is a wonderful place to stay. It does not have a swimming pool, but the beach it has is good and safe for swimming. The lodge is simple and accommodating and offers the opportunity to relax, hike and take tours Corcovado and Caño Island.
