Zarcero Vacations from $593

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. It really was exceptional. We were greeted by the most friendly manager she was truly happy to welcome us. We got a welcome delicious alcoholic beverage made by the bartender and also got a surprise in our room with another drink and fruit it was truly special never had that before. We brought our rescue dog and he got lots of attention too from the staff. The tent is sooo fun clean, roomy and the pool is a great touch. We enjoyed watching the birds, butterflies and iguanas. The restaurant was delicious and again great drinks and attentive staff. We can’t wait to go back.

Lindo hotel en medio del bosque

We were upgraded to a very nice room overlooking the beach. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Our stay included breakfast and dinner- excellent food. Drake Bay is a remote area so it was nice to have everything provided by the hotel. When we took a day tour to Corcovado National Park, the boat picked us up at the beach in front of the hotel.

The room with the private pool was awesome. The staff was exceptional, friendly, helpful and polite. The restaurant is great, the menu amazing and the service is word class. We can only recommend all activities they offer. The guides are very knowledgeable and make you feel safe and taken care of.
