Las Caletas is a rustic, removed from the beaten path, lodge. If you want someone to being standing at your elbow, wiping your chin after every bite, go pay for it at some ultra expensive resort. If you want either a quiet and relaxing or adventurous, yet outstanding, quality experience, this is the place. Great food + fantastic setting, for... more

We spent a week over Christmas as the Aguila de Osa inn, and were impressed from the very start. The staff was friendly, welcoming and accomodating. We loved the food and family style seating allowed us to meet other guests. The cocktail hour was a highlight each day to hear about everyone's adventures, the views spectacular and the tours were... more

This place is fantastic. I say this after we changed from our room to one of the spacious platform tents which zip all the way to keep out bugs. They're very private and have good ventilation with lots of screens and a very comfortable queen size bed. There's a short walk to a very clean bathroom with shower which is... more

We had a wonderful stay with Marleny and her team in mid-August. We were concerned about going during the “rainy” season but learned that the rain tends to be very cooperative. We had none during the morning or early afternoon. Once we were back from our activities, it started drizzling in late afternoon and poured with thunderstorms at night. This... more

Our first visit to Drake Bay was an exciting and relaxing adventure. The packages include room, meals and tours. The tourguides are professional and really work to show you what you want to see (in terms of wildlife). The guides are knowledgable about both animals and plants in the area. We went on 5 tours and enjoyed them all! The... more

This review has taken me quite some time to complete, and frankly I completely forgot about my experience at Osa until my annual journey with friends came up again this year. This was booked by friends in Chicago and we anticipated a first class experience as all billing and marketing material suggested. Wow! What a disappointment. We anticipated an overnight... more

Fishing is the main focus here although the other activities are nice. Clean rooms, beautiful spa, nice staff, good food. The fishing staff is professional and quite serious about catching fish. Puerto Jimenez is a small town - don't expect big night life. more

where you can unplug and forget your worldly distractions. Fabulous service overall. We were slightly off-season and received a free room upgrade. Many nuances, such as a morning coffee tray delivered to your door from the kitchen 200 yards away. Interesting guests, fresh caught seafood, improbable wine selection for a *very remote location. Very romantic. Wildlife: great birdwatching and saw... more

We stayed at Aguilla for 8 nights and the service we received was outstanding, from all (the grounds staff, bartenders, dock hands, maids, reservaionists, guides, cooks, waitstaff, etc... ) There were 4 of us, 2 stayed in a Standard Room #7 and 2 stayed in a Jr Suite (#11). The Standard Room - nothing to complain about - the views... more

This is a terrific place to stay and explore the Osa Penninsula. From our arrival on 12/20 until our departure on 12/27 we felt right at home. Susanna and Nelson made sure we were comfortable and arranged all of our tours. When you arrive they ask you what you would like to do and then in the evening they let... more

this was always going to be the premium hotel on our trip given the price it costs to stay here but thankfully it was worth the money. perched on a ridge in the middle of the rainforest the views are almost 360degrees with the best reserved for those who are awake to watch the sunrise over the horizon. the individual... more

perched on the beautiful drake bay peninsula this place has found the perfect balance between nature and an elegant relaxing holiday. although located a very short walk to a deserted beach and sea you are very much in the rain forest and therefore exposed to all that nature has to offer. this means rising with the noisy monkeys and birds... more

I stayed at the Rio Tico Safari lodge with my six month old daughter, my three year old son, wife, parents and in-laws; it was AWESOME! Cees and Miranda (the proprietors) are some of the most hospitable, accommodating people I have ever met. The facilities are impeccably maintained and very comfortable. There is a river with natural pools, waterfalls and... more

The grounds here are beautiful! The wildlife is abundant and the vegetation is plentiful. The restaurant was very nice and had decent food. However, the casitas are another story. My husband and I were very disappointed when we were shown to our room. We'd read such great reviews and expected much more. The unfortunate thing is that this place could... more

Lapa Rios is a haven of comfort in the midst of a wildlife haven. We found the food especially nice, the rooms delightful (a sloth climbing a tree outside our cabin!) and the activities on offer excellent. We had brilliant guiding for birds and animals and highly recommend the day trip into the nearby Corcovado Park. The many trails around... more

Briefly put - this was the greatest place I've ever gone. Every moment was an intriguing adventure. The place was great, the people excellent, food also excellent. I recommend the "Jungle at night" tour with the bug lady. more

After reading the other TripAdvisor postings on Crocodile Bay Lodge we decided to choose it for our honeymoon location in Costa Rica. I now have to question the validity of these postings and wonder if they were real guests. As it turns out we were misled from the beginning. Why? Because after the disastrous stay and our departure from this... more

Las Caletas was a perfect choice for our honeymoon. It was just the right combination of 'roughing it' (geckos on the walls of our room!), and luxury (fantastic food, unbelievably beautiful location). Our guide, Jose, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Jolanda and David, the owners, were able to hook us up with any number of activities: horseback riding, night hikes to... more

The management takes advantage of you whenever they can. They ordered "over-priced" adventures for us which we found out at the end were actually cheaper than they claimed if we were to order it on our own. Accommodations were very basic, AC did not work properly, sometimes we had reasonably warm water, but the price we paid was if we'd... more
