Beachfront holiday rentals in Drake Bay

Nos encantó el lugar estaba muy lindo y limpio y en general bien descrito. Está muy cerca de la playa y cuenta con un buen espacio para parquear. La cocina está completa, solo que no hay sal ni aceite. Tiene una linda terraza, donde compartir y comer. En la descripción no lo dice, pero solo tiene un AC, y está en la sala. Las almohadas de las camas son MUY incomodas, fue lo único que nos disgustó.

Paz is a special place and Roberto is a wonderful host. The floor to ceiling screens in the living room/dining room situate you right in the secondary forest. Heaven for nature loving bird nerds. If you’ve spent time on the Osa before, you know Howler monkeys wake you at 4:30am. We watched howler, spider, and squirrel monkeys from bed. The beach is a minute walk. A covered porch with hammocks and chairs to enjoy the beautiful Gulfo Dulce. And a small pool to cool off in (key) and watch Macaws, capuchin monkeys, hermit crabs & the waves. We bought groceries in Puerto Jimenez and cooked most of meals for the week. Kitchen has big fridge, sharp knives, and worked well for us. Marluna Lodge (5 min drive) for Taco Tuesday. Visited local surf breaks and surfed the right point break out front of Paz. Tide dependent. Roberto can help you figure it out. Roberto was very attentive, warm, and helpful. He’s created a beautiful space in a beautiful part of the world.

Localização privilegiada de frente pro mar!! A acomodação oferece tudo o que vc precisa para ficar nesse paraíso com conforto. A hospitalidade de Kim e seu marido foi ótima, sempre nos ajudando com tudo que foi solicitado.

Absolutely amazing spot! We felt right at home from the moment we arrived ! The grounds were just gorgeous and full of wildlife! We loved the outdoor kitchen which is so roomy and lets you hear all the monkeys and birds! The kayaking near the place was fantastic! We had fun fishing and seeing all the mangroves! We can’t say enough good things about the hosts who cooked many delicious meals for us and were just generally amazing! Room was perfect and comfortable with great decks for looking out over the grounds! Just a wonderful experience in some of the best natural surroundings!

Amazing peaceful house surrounded by nature right in front of matapalo surf point. Very peaceful, lots of animals during the day and during the night. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen and bathroom are very nice.

Love the place! Monkeys right outside the window, ocean views and surrounded by jungle. The house is a large 1 bedroom with a large living room with cozy big couch, balcony off of the living room and big bedroom and bathroom. Everything we needed and more so will definitely keep it at the top of our list for another visit - very soon I hope.

We loved our peaceful 3 night stay in Finca de Nada's private open air house right on the Golfo Dulce, immersed in the flora and fauna of the rainforest. It has a well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and hammock, and private areas to swim. We loved exploring the grounds and seeing all of the plants, birds, insects, and other wildlife. We recommend quick dry clothing to stay comfy and candles for tranquil evenings. There were no mosquitos or flies for those concerned. The caretaker, Cholo, was very friendly, arranged our boat shuttle on time, and was unphased by taking us to the house during a storm. We would definitely stay here again.

Dolphin Quest is a magical place. The location, combining jungle and ocean, is incredible. I spent three nights in Casa Jungla, a shared cabin that is simply beautiful. I spent hours on the balcony, looking at the trees and watching birds, monkeys, and other wildlife pass by (hi, anteater!). And then there's the food—wow. Fresh, locally grown, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. The staff, owners, and volunteers are all lovely people who create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It's hard to put the experience of staying at Dolphin Quest into words, so just book your stay and see for yourself - you won’t regret it!

Nous étions déjà venu l’année dernière chez François. Notre séjour a ete beau, reposant et magique. Si vous aimez la jungle, la nature et la sensation d’être loin du reste du monde....c'est l'endroit parfait:) Le golfe Dulce est aussi un endroit très spécial....nous avons fait une excursion en bateau avec Osawild pour voir des dauphins....et nous avons eu un moment extraordinaire...Un petit paradis de jungle ou beaucoup d’espèce d’oiseaux et certain singes viennent naturellement sur la propriété.

We absolutely loved our stay here. It was the perfect place to unwind and truly be together as a family. The animal life was incredible. We woke up to monkeys in the morning and playing throughout the day just outside the house. Both john and Oscar were super helpful and friendly. And if you have a chance to have Jackson’s cook- she was incredible. If you’re in for a rustic, full of nature, full family time then this is your place! Also don’t miss out on scheduling a horseback ride with Carlos at finca tropical! It surpassed our expectations and my husband used to guide horseback rides in Colorado. Enjoy the time together and this charming place in Cabo matopalo!

If you're looking for a spot just off the beaten path with the beauty of the rainforest right at your fingertips and the coast just a short walk away, then this is the place for you. The layout and outdoor living spaces of the home allow you to enjoy the toucans, scarlet macaws, hummingbirds and even monkeys if you have a keen eye. The howler monkey was hard to spot, but he put on quite a show! You'll spot wildlife along the path to the beach as well, so enjoy the short walk. After you've spotted the iguana and what we thought was an agouti, you'll find the truly semi-private beach. We will miss the magic of the coast and rainforest for sure. Uvita is just a short drive away and we liked that it wasn't heavily congested. You'll find a waterfall close to Uvita and we discovered the hidden gem of a restaurant called Tilapias El Pavón. All that to say, we loved the location. It was peaceful and had everything we needed for the perfect beach vacation.

We had a wonderful stay in Playa Blanca!! I had no cell service/communication on my end due to data issues with my phone for several days before our arrival, but we found it without issue with the original directions Amanda has on the listing. Amanda and Jay were very friendly and welcoming. Our kids loved playing with their kids on the jungle gym and in the pool. This stay was at the end of a 10 day stay for us in Costa Rica and was the perfect cap for us to rest/reset and enjoy the last few days in the Osa. Its a large property and very quiet and peaceful (well except for the beautiful macaws making a ruckus in the almond trees!) We paddle boarded each morning on the calm gulf and saw sea turtles daily! They have built a wonderful little school house on property as well and have unique opportunities for kids to attend school/study abroad so to speak for those that may be interested. We highly recommend this property!

La casa está justo al frente del mar, el sonido del mar es increíble que se une con la vida silvestre, es algo increíble poder ver tantos animales y poder tomar une café frente al mar por las mañanas. La casa es toda una experiencia para poder vivir esa vida silvestre. Chicky quien cuida la propiedad es súper atento, muy amable y anuente a ayudar en lo que sea necesario. Lleve su comida y todo lo necesario porque no hay nada cercano para comprar.

By far one of my favorite stays in Costa Rica! The house is great, exactly as seen in the photos. The house’s open air concept, proximity to the beach with its ocean breezes, and the 2 ceiling fans in the common spaces, kept the house very cool and comfortable. Also the fact that each bed had a private fan made the nights very comfortable as well. The kitchen is well stocked and easy to cook in (we cooked almost all our meals at the house). Although there are a couple good restaurant options nearby as well, which is a bonus. The host and property manager (Patricia and Anthony) were very responsive and helpful. We will definitely be back as soon as we can!!

Rick is a fantastic host; he responds immediately if something doesn't meet your expectations. The location of Casa Dulce is simply incredible and will make any surfer's heart beat faster. The only thing that wasn't quite ideal for me was the small bed, which is a bit too small for someone my height (1.92m). Nevertheless, I would book the accommodation again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Rick, for the wonderful time at your place.

We had a perfect time at this luxe house in the jungle! I can't say enough good things about this house. It took me a while to make it out to Matapalo because nothing has AC, but the house always had a breeze through it and fans in the bedrooms made it easy to sleep at night. I was never too hot - Beautiful home with high end finishes, super clean, the photos don't do it justice - Well stocked kitchen, SHARP knives. Large and easy to cook in with 4 people - Tons wildlife outside, not a ton of wildlife inside which was nice. Very well screened to keep out critters - Beautiful balcony to hang out on and watch the wildlife - House felt really private

Stunningly beautiful, wonderful location, comfortable and well-appointed, especially considering the extremely remote location. We arrived after heavy rain had washed out much of the highway, which meant that even with 4x4 it was a huge challenge to get there, adding over an hour extra to our trip to get there. I wish the highway conditions had been better communicated to us. Google actually listed the highway as "closed," and we thought about turning back a few times, since it was nighttime by the time we were getting there and the SUV kept bottoming out. Please also know that getting there involves driving through a rushing river that, when we were there, was about 12-18 inches deep. The highway was repaired a few days later, so departure was easier.

This place is truly special, a beautiful Airbnb nestled in nature, offering peace and tranquility. The house is thoughtfully equipped with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. Jenn is an outstanding host who made us feel incredibly welcome from the moment we arrived. She provided excellent recommendations and went out of her way to ensure we had a great experience. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a stay in the area, and we genuinely hope to return soon!

Amazing host and amazing property ! We had such an incredible time staying here. The wildlife, the sound of the waves, and the walkability to the beach and to Martina’s restaurant were so great. We will definitely be back and highly recommend booking this home!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Punta Preciosa. The location is beautiful and private. The beach was virtually deserted most of the time. The swimming was fantastic and it was also nice to walk along the sandy beach early in the morning and watch the Scarlet Macaws and other birds. Pascal was an excellent host. He was very responsive to my inquiries and often responded within the hour. He has created a very helpful digital welcome book which you receive access to after booking. He helped arranged excellent tours for us, all of which I would recommend - kayak tour of the mangrove, boat And snorkelling tour of the Gulf, a night walk and a trip to Corcovado. The house is very nice and is tastefully and comfortably furnished. The gas stove and oven took some figuring out but worked well. There is no microwave or dishwasher. The main floor is open to the air so there were some insects at night but using the fan and insect repellent helped. We would love to go back again.

Absolutely beautiful property, walk right out to pan dulce for surf. Howler monkeys were a treat to wake up to. Felt fully immersed in the jungle.

If you are seeking immersion in nature and being in tune with natural cycles, this is the perfect place to slow down and just be. I loved waking up a little after 5am naturally as the light just started to break, hearing the sound of the waves and howler monkeys and cicadas. I could see the ocean from my unit, and it was nice to be able to walk along the beach or take a swim to cool off. The place looks exactly like the photos. My glamping unit was very clean and simple yet nicely decorated with plenty of shelves to put my belongings. It was so nice to have a fully equipped and pristine kitchen with plenty of space to store my food. I was delighted watching the monkeys every single day. There are many birds (hawks, scarlet maccaws). And a coati scampered right by me as I sat on my patio drinking coffee early one morning. The hosts are so nice and take very good care of the place, ensuring it remains a peaceful stay for everyone and is respectful of nature and wildlife.

Wow! What a beautiful town home in a wonderful location just metres from a secluded tropical beach and nestled in a vibrant jungle setting, full of life. Cosy and comfortable accommodation with everything you need for a family of 4 or a small group of friends looking for an adventure in Costa Rica! A quick drive to town for shopping, seaside restaurants, and close to a multitude of surf breaks. There is World class fishing, waterfalls, unique wildlife and so much more, the Osa peninsula is a spectacular place for an adventurous holiday that you’ll never forget. Cara and Cory are amazing hosts! Can’t say enough, Pura vida!!

This was our first time renting an Airbnb in a foreign country, so we were a little nervous. Charles was super helpful and responsive during the whole trip. He gave us great recommendations, scheduled our excursions, and answered all of our questions. The main thing we wanted to do was to go offshore fishing. Charles hooked us up with two great captains (Louis and Donald (Dos Mas), and we had a great day of fishing. The house is located just a very short walk from the pier where you catch the boat. There are also several good restaurants that are within a short walk from the house. We also did an off-road drive and a short hike to the King Louis waterfall, tour of chocolate farm, and went surfing with Keilor (Lakos surf shop in town). We would recommend all of these activities highly. This was a great trip and we had a party of 6 from age 7 to 71. The fishing was amazing.
