During a recent stay at Pirate Cove, Drake Bay, and after a full day of activities including snorkelling and kayaking, my wife experienced severe chest pains, starting during the evening meal. Susanne, the proprietress of Pirate Cove sent her husband to collect the local doctor by motorcycle. The doctor diagnosed pneumonia and said it was essential that she went to... More

We were a group of friends who spent 3 days at the Pirate Cove Hotel. Everything from booking the reservations to making logistical arrangements prior to arrival was easy; very responsive to our queries. The hotel is located just above the beach so that the rooms catch the breeze and have lovely views of the ocean throught palm trees. The... More

With my family we traveled trough Costa Rica for 12 days, on December of 2012, the best 4 days were spent in Pirate Cove in Drake Bay in the Osa Peninsula. The place, accommodation, food, staff and the owner Susanne Pagano are excellent. We wanted to Scuba Dive, they have a magnificent PADI operation that is run by Erick Murillo,... More

We stayed here for 4 nights and enjoyed it a lot. You have a big lonely beach right in front of you. The apartments are very spacious and we never had a problem with the fact not having an air-condition. The food served for breakfast, lunch and dinner was to my surprise really really good and we always looked forward... More

Had a fantastic CR vacation March 2012. Our main goal was to go somewhere slightly less traveled with great chances to view wildlife. Didn't have enough time to travel around a lot so stayed the bulk of the time where we really wanted to be: Drake Bay. I picked Pirate Cove thanks to tripadvisor because it was more affordable then... More

The cabins have great views over the ocean and it's you can down by the water in less than a minute. We stayed on a full board basis and the food was OK, but didn't feel like great value. The nearest... More

This review has been a long time coming, especially since I stayed at Pirate's Cove with my husband almost six months ago. Pirate's Cove will always be a special place for me because of their hospitality and phenomenal guest service. It was my husband's 40th birthday, and I wanted to have a surprise birthday party for him, but we suddenly... More

We've stayed here on two separate occasions to take advantage of the excellent scuba diving at Isla Del Cano and for the tours to Corcovado National Park. The facilities are basic but more than adequate with large rooms in a resort located in a beautiful and romantic setting. The staff work extremely hard to enure your stay is a pleasurable... More

I found Hotel Pirates Cove & all of the Staff to be just what I was seeking. I wanted to relax & feel free to do as I pleased. I did respect the time when the great meals were being served. I especially liked the fact that I had the freedom to get a refreshment whenever I wished & all... More
