Cabins in Drake

Incredible location a stones throw away from a private beach and surrounded by nature. We saw macaws, a sloth, monkeys and hummingbirds, lizards, frogs and more. Very secluded and intimate lodging with great service and amazing meals.

We have never said 'wow' 'amazing' 'incredible' so many times, in fact, we ran out of superlatives as we relaxed into this jungle paradise. The family were wonderful, kind, and generous of heart. All very skilled at their work (They didn't make it look like 'work' for them, more like 'life that they love' - Pura Vida). Everything was stunning - from the welcome on the beach when Guillermo met us from the boat from Sierpe, the details in the room, the 3 meals a day of home cooked delicious food - all exceptional! And what a location! 2 minutes from one of the best beaches ever - The best in the area (in our opinion) and almost always deserted - incredible to have this beautiful beach and sea to yourself). In the middle of the jungle with amazing nature coming into the garden - in just one hour we saw toucans, monkeys (one with a baby), couatis, iguana, hummingbirds galore, scarlet macaws, red-rumped tanagers, vultures, parrots, hawks, eagles, (lots of other birds) lizards, butterflies (inc the blue morpho)... all from our balcony! Bring your binoculars, it's worth getting an even closer look at it all. Despite the wildlife being so amazing, the family were an even better part of our stay. Isaac and Guillermo and their beautiful families were incredible, special people, we now have an extended family in Costa Rica! They organized all our incredible tours; Corcovado park, Snorkelling Cano, horseback riding to a remote waterfall where we swam - all for the same price as in Drake Bay or online, if not cheaper. For each one the family arranged for us to be picked up by boat (or horse) from the beach. Note - It is up a hill (to get the views), so expect a bit of an incline to get to the lodges from the beach. It is in the middle of the jungle, so internet is not 5G, but it worked fine for us. We loved Sunset Toucano lodge - as you can tell by us booking for 3 nights & staying for 8!

Fauna Lodge Corcovado – A Home in the Jungle What an amazing place! Fauna Lodge is a brand-new accommodation where everything is perfectly taken care of. Alfonso and Anna immediately make you feel at home, allowing you to fully relax. On top of the warm hospitality, the dinner here is an absolute must. After dining here the first two nights, we didn’t have to think twice: we knew we wanted to enjoy the delicious, fresh meals again on the third night. With the sounds of the jungle in the background and relaxing music playing, it’s a truly unique experience. Alfonso and Anna make sure you don’t miss a thing. They think of everything and even provide excellent tips to explore the area more thoroughly. They gave us an incredible alternative route to experience the inland scenery, which turned out to be a highlight in itself! From the moment we booked, the communication was seamless and clear. They also helped us arrange two unforgettable day trips to Corcovado: one from Los Planes to truly immerse ourselves in nature, and another to Sirena for wildlife spotting. Both rangers were incredibly enthusiastic and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. It’s no surprise that we really didn’t want to leave. Fauna Lodge is a dream destination, and we can’t wait to return one day! 🌿

The most fantastic location away from tourist and direct at the beach with wildlife just outside. The hosts were the so sweet and helpfull and the food was great.

The view and the bistro Chef Claudio is a must

Great place to stay - easily accessible by car. Very clean, hospitable, spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and made early on request to ensure you have enough time to embark on any tours.

The accommodation is a well equipped studio in a very quiet and remote area outside of the little village Los Planes. We enjoyed having breakfast on the terrace with watching and listening to many different birds. There is a good panaderia (Cielo y tierra) in Los Planes. Only 5-10 minutes by car away is gorgeous Las Caletas beach. From there you can also make a beautiful hike to Drake Bay or/and San Josecito bay which we can highly recommend. We also walked to the rainforest platform of the owner's father which was a very particular experience.

Very sympathic host and a beautiful familiy raised lodge! Best service you can imagine. Sourrounded by only rainforest.

Quality food, great staff Staff did put together a lot of stuff to do for us and every thing we asked for was settled in a record time. We were there for new years eve and the tuna was to die for !!! we saw toucans and other great wildlife in our three days at the property Thanks Roy for putting up with us !

Absolutely everything! The cabaña we stayed in was very cosy and every single detail was very well thought of. The view on the woods is calming and relaxing. You’re completely immersed in nature: from the balcony we saw monkeys, toucans and agoutis. Two frogs crossed our path when going back at night. The room and the kitchen were spotless! Last but not least, Sebastián is an incredible host: friendly, available and very nice. You can tell he genuinely enjoys hosting people and sharing tips and information about this and other beautiful areas of Costa Rica.
