About
Cabins and a spacious apartment in Los Planes, about twenty minutes from Drake Bay town on a rough road — reviewers are blunt that you need a 4x4 to get here. What you get in exchange: a quiet hideaway with a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, daily service, covered private parking, and a covered terrace over the rainforest, five minutes' drive from a beach guests call one of Drake Bay's most beautiful. Carlos lives on the property and is repeatedly described as friendly and responsive on WhatsApp. The family also runs tours: a Corcovado day trip with a sharp-eyed guide, and a river floating tour with waterfall swimming, macaws, toucans, and a Costa Rican lunch.

I did a one day tour into Corcovado National Park with Pacheco Tours on Thursday May 7. Our excellent guide was very knowledgeable and we saw a ton of wildlife. Definitely recommend!
The good: Perfect hideaway from the city. Has everything you need, clean and a really big apartment. A good value for money. The dad owner lives nearby, and the owner is really communitive via WhatsApp. Close to one of the most beautiful beaches in Drake Bay. To improve: Althogh there a cilling fan, Could add a fan to the room, could be a bit hot inside. It's 20 min from the city but on a really poor road. Book only if you have a car!
We thoroughly enjoyed the floating tour with Carlos! He sent a car to pick us up from our hotel and pointed out all of the wildlife and gave us a bunch of information about Costa Rica. We saw a toucan, scarlet macaws, spider monkeys, and so many other birds (white hawks, an egret, a crested guan, etc). We hiked through the tropical forest for a while before stopping at a waterfall to swim and eat pineapple. Very refreshing! The floating part of the tour was really fun! (And a bit of an ab workout 😂). The walk along the beach was great to spot macaws and toucans. It’s such an isolated and beautiful area (not touristy at all). The lunch at the end was delicious and true Costa Rican food. If you love adventure and are ok with hiking on rocks and clay - this is the perfect tour!!
