Lodges in Drake

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 view and the bistro Chef Claudio is a must

The house and facilities are very beautiful and comfortable. The garden is very well maintained.

Our room was amazing, with the most beautiful view and everything we needed. Breakfast on the balcony was perfect, and they helped us booking the boat from sierpe and the tours in Corcovado. We were really sad to leave this little paradise!

Everything was perfect! I will book again Nothing was more relaxing than the sea view and the sound of the waves from the bungalow during my 3 weeks in CR. The jungle and all the animals. It felt unbelievable The sunset from the beach. MA-GI-CAL The river and the waterfall. The best surprise I am so grateful. The kindness of the staff who spent time to show me around.

Our stay in the Corcovado Green Cabin was a highlight and the perfect end of our Costa Rica trip! Raquel was so lovely and the cabin was just beautiful, very clean and located in such a peaceful area. We only needed around 10 min by walk to arrive at the beach, where we literally were the only 2 people! Our highlight was the great view which we enjoyed in the morning during breakfast or in the evenings watching the sunset. We totally recommend it and would come back any time! Thanks a lot for everything! Pura Vida Natalie y Victor

We absolutely loved our stay here! The staff were so lovely and helpful. Breakfast was good, fruit, eggs, bread or pancakes each morning, accompanied by fruit juice and coffee. Very quick and economical laundry service too. Comfy beds and a very quiet location. A short walk to bars, restaurants, and the beach. Spacious room and lovely hot shower. It was one of our favourite stays on our 3 week trip and we wished we could stay for longer!

Absolutely loved this place. The staff were always so friendly and welcoming. They made me feel right at home and helped me out with anything I needed. You really feel the community spirit at this place which I loved. The beach is right on your doorstep, and I loved falling asleep listening to the waves. The best sleep I've had on my trip so far. It's a bit difficult to get to and from Drake Bay if you don't have a car but I liked that it was a bit off the beaten track. The family were very accommodating giving me taxis to and from my destinations from the airport and Drake Bay. Would definitely come here again.

I was here for 5 nights oct 7-12 2022, the rainy season. -Arraigned airport pickup before i arrived. I arrived at airport and they were pulling up as i walked out the door. A very nice man that is the hotel driver, doesnt speak much english, drove me from airport to hotel, about 30-45 min drive depending on road conditions. We had to drive through a river that was not too deep, near airport. -The hotel was very nice, i was greeted by one of their sons that spoke english, as well as the mother and father who run the business. I paid with visa debit for the stay and cash for the driver. -Was shown to my cabin/bungalow. It was great, 3/4 sides is screen walls with curtains, a nice big bathroom, looks like brand new wood, 2 nice beds, even live flowers. The cabin has a balcony, with chairs and light, its nice for reading at night, view of surrounding forest/lawn. There is very nice flower bush right outside that humming birds love, you can hear/see a humming bird at least 1 every 10 min. The cabin is a short walk away from the main building, down a garden trail. Nice air flow because of the screens, and there is a ceiling fan too. Many outlets to charge things. -The food was GREAT. I am a very picky eater, i eat with my eyes (like a bird as my mother said), and i am mostly vegetarian except for some deep fried fish and chicken because it is good, they asked me what i perfered, and altho there was a language barrior as the mother and father dont speak english, they understood my meals and made a effort to give me food i would like. Fresh juice daily. -Drake bay is about 1 hour walk, with a bridge and one steep hill (the river crossing is only on the way to airport). Its a scenic walk, i did it a few times. Most times it was raining, but still nice. Or the hotel offers drives for a cost. They did tell me that i would get one free transport to and from town per day.

Sam and his family were really welcoming. We loved staying there. The bungalow was surrounded by nature and so close to the beach. The food was very nice too. Would highly recommend :-)
