Drake Bay Backpackers
1.5 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (2)
"This is a backpackers hostel so the facilities are basic. It is situated outside Drake Bay but there are bicycles available for guests to use or, alternatively, the manager can arrange for a taxi to take you to local destinations. He is also happy to arrange guided tours in the area. The garden around the hostel is fantastic for wildlife and there are local shops and cafes to get food."

"The front desk welcome was stellar. They are also a tour operator so I was able to check-in and line up all my activities at the same time. Their chair at the front desk was great for a hot weary traveler arriving. The location is great. I got lucky and was put in a room by myself with a bunk bed at no extra charge instead of the 4 person dorm I’d booked as it had filled up. The cons here are that it could be better maintained and cleaner. I woke up at 5am to go on my tour and neither...

"When we arrived, the staff did not seem to know of our booking and we had to show the confirmation email from hotels.com to evidence the booking. Then they showed us to three different rooms, the first two not being at all what we’d booked so we rejected them - the third was closest so by this point we just took the room. Then they weren’t sure how much to charge us so again we had to refer to the confirmation email. None of this was particularly disappointing, but it was a little unnerving to...

"From the very beginning, this place, the host and property manager was amazing! Super communicative and was totally open to my many many questions lol! Arriving there, Jorge drove us up the insanely steep awesome mountain to this beautiful property! He showed us around and made himself available for any help we needed during our stay.

"Our group of 5 absolutely loved our stay at the hector house. It’s very close to town and an easy 8 min walk to the Main Street. AC throughout the house was great and having our own private pool and backyard grilling area was the cherry on top! We will definitely come back to the hector house and it is now one of our favorite places we’ve stayed in Costa Rica. It had all the amenities needed AND more. The host Adolfo was also very accommodating and even opened the gate for us when we arrived at...

"Our stay was nothing short or spectacular. Communication with Chris was prompt & informative before our arrival. He met us at a restaurant near the house so we could follow him. He explained any details he thought would help make our stay more enjoyable. DON'T let any previous review about the road dissuade you from renting this house. You need a 4WD with good clearance. Our Suzuki Jimny was perfect. It had been 30 years since I drove a car in 4WD, and I had no problems. After the first time...
