Property Information:
Welcome to our little ecofarm and lodge in the rain forest of the Osa Peninsula in Drake Bay, Costa Rica.
We are a Costa-Rican - Swiss couple and are lucky to live in a beautiful place called Drake Bay that we would like to share with you. Drake Bay is a very remote and natural place where according to legends Sir Francis Drake hided a treasure. We invite you to walk on the steps of Sir Francis Drake and discover its natural treasures as the huge biodiversity of Corcovado National Park, the underwater world at the Ca�o Island, the beautiful 4km pristine beach and many more.
Rio Drake Lodge is located near the River Drake that gives the name to our lodge and farm. You find us five kilometers north from the center of Drake Bay, a really private and quiet place. We provide accommodation with four guest rooms and cook for our guests in our restaurant. In the evening, we use light from our solar panel for the dining platform and candles for the rooms. In front of the rooms, there are several hammocks under a traditional palm leaf roof where you can relax and observe pure nature just around here.
On our farm, we grow several fruit plants and raise horses. Because of the proximity of our lodge to the forest, a lagoon and the sea, you can observe various species of animals in the next environment: scarlet macaws, parrots, toucans, white face monkeys, raccoons, caimans, kingfishers, pelicans, humming birds, fire flies and many more. In the nearby village �El Progreso� you can also find espheras - stone balls from the pre-Columbian �poque.
From our restaurant you are able to observe marvelous sunsets over the pacific sea and the Ca�o Island. Cross the river by canoe or pass a hammock bridge and you get to a 4km long lonesome beach with coco palms, excellent for relaxing. Or you can discover the environment on a tour as horseback riding, hiking in the Corcovado national park, snorkeling or diving at Ca�o Island, bird watching, crocodile tour and many more.
As part of our social commitment we realize community projects with volunteers for jobs like painting the school, making a hammock bridge, trails, connecting drinking water to school, cleaning the beach and patrolling for the turtles.
Our lodge is next to the Drake Bay airport, what makes the access really easy (normally only two little planes at 9 a.m. and 12 o'clock, so it is still a very quiet place). Rio Drake Lodge is situated before the Rio Drake, which is often too high to cross for cars in the raining season.
If you look for a pure nature experience, this is the right place for you. We are waiting for you!

We stayed at the lodge for wonderful 4 nights. Edu and Sabrina try everything to make your stay unforgettable. The food is delicious and typical local. Edu is raised in this area and knows all about the animals around and IN the lodge. Many animals we spotted in the corcovado national park, we have actually seen in the lodge while relaxing in the hammock. If you like it you can go fishing with Edu and prepare your own fish. There is no electricity, just candles, mucho romantico. Cu again!
