We were greeted warmly by the day manager as our boat arrived. She told us we were being given an upgrade with a lovely ocean view. They went out of their way to help us including a very early breakfast before leaving for an overnight stay at La Sirena. Really appreciated the extra help.

Could not be better

The staff was helpful, warm and kind. The room was stunning. Wrap around windows, including the bathroom shower. Views of the ocean and up the hill into the trees. We regularly watched pairs of macaws fly in front of us. Immaculately clean. The coffee and yogurt served in the dining hall were unusually tasty. I highly recommend staying here if you go to Osa. Ask for room 3! Many of the tours depart from here, and it's the closest to the supermarket and laundry. Be aware that the rooms are very small with little storage space. However, if you came by plane - you likely only have a backpack anyway. Also it is hard to find the main office.

We loved the location in the view. I realize this was off-season, but their restaurant was not open. Neither was their bar and we did not have any notice of that. Also, one morning the Cook did not show up so we missed the included breakfast. The room was clean And I would stay there again, but just be aware that all services may not be available. The manager was very helpful getting us taxi back-and-forth to the airport.

Mila was exceptional & always greeted us with a warm friendly smile. She helped accommodate us as a family member was sick. Mila also went out of her way to help me celebrate my birthday We stayed at the very top of the property which was amazing but not for those who are elderly or struggle with a step climb.

A room in Paradise

All in all a beautiful hotel on a beautiful beach! A short walk from Drake Bay and many dining options. The complimentary breakfast with an ocean view with traditional Gallo Pinto was delightful, though the dinner was a little disappointing for the price. My only real criticism would be the annoying noise from their building projects.

Drake bay is a small village like area where most people visit to enjoy yours to Corcovado national park or other activities. There are some super upscale hotels too but I was not there to pamper myself. This hotel offers everything you need for your stay, staff are friends. Breakfast was included as part our stay. Rooms were clean and maintained nicely but nothing fancy. There are no elevators and only steps so be ready for a work out, but tHe view from your your is the your reward. It was breathtaking. The macaw bird was eating fruits from our hotels tree. We just sat in the restaurant area and they were there.

Go elsewhere

Save your money and book somewhere else. Rancho Corcovado is not worth the price tag. During our stay there was no electricity which meant no hot water and no air conditioning. There was no attempt by management to apologize or correct this, and I paid extra for a room with ac. The rooms themselves are basic. No shampoo. No amenities. Our bed was uncomfortable and had ripped sheets. The shower head had exposed wires. The hotel itself is under construction which means it is loud during the day. At night dogs bark incessantly. There are plenty of nicer places in drake bay to stay for less money. I would strongly suggest one of those. I felt scammed at this place.

Great location and hotel but noisy

Great hotel and area but apparently it is a pickup and drop off place for many tours so it’s often very loud starting at 6am and in the afternoon.
