Casa Horizontes is a series of separate bungalows up a steep hill overlooking Drake Bay. We arrived by boat from Sierpe and were met on the beach by Pedro, the owner, who drove us the short distance up to our bungalow. Danny met us there and showed us the facilities before taking us up to the reception/dining area to have a welcome drink and some fresh fruit whilst we checked in. The bungalow was clean and tidy and had a small kitchen with a fridge, hob and a kettle. The hotel supplied two large bottles of water, which were replaced when needed, which was a nice touch. The bungalow was in the middle of the forest and so nature is all around as well as inside from time to time! There was air conditioning and ceiling fans in the bungalow which was essential as it was extremely hot. It is a 10 minute walk to the nearest mini market and restaurants and about 5 minutes to the town beach. The hotel offers breakfast and dinner but there are also alternative options in town.

Our stay at Casa Horizontes in Drake Bay was absolutely magical! The spacious house with AC in both bedrooms provided perfect comfort after days of jungle adventure. What truly sets this place apart are the extraordinary hosts - from the moment we stepped off the boat in Sierpe, our host was there to greet us and drive us up to the house (despite it being just a short walk away). They welcomed us into their own home for fresh juice and fruit while we took in the breathtaking ocean views - a moment I'll never forget. The location is perfect - you feel completely immersed in the rainforest while being just a 3-minute walk down the hill to the ocean. Having the supermarket and several amazing restaurants nearby with incredible food and drinks made everything convenient. The beautiful hiking trail close to the property was an unexpected bonus for morning explorations. But I must emphasize - the hosts are what make Casa Horizontes truly special. Their genuine kindness, honesty, and incredible hospitality elevated our entire Drake Bay experience. They were so accommodating with every request and went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome. I left with not just wonderful memories but profound respect for these goodhearted people who made our stay unforgettable. If you're visiting Drake Bay, you absolutely must experience Casa Horizontes!

Electricity goes out everywhere when it's heavy rainfall, but that's nothing anyone can control. It comes back on pretty quickly.

Old wooden house overlooking Bahía Drake - and what fantastic views.🤗 Garden full of birds; lots of rangers and hummingbirds, trees in front of veranda often had motmots, toucans or macaws. Staff (Daniel and Glori) really helpful, especially dealing with the early morning departures for boats to Corcovado or Sierpe - Pedro even collected and delivered us to the boat terminal (beach).

The noise from taxi boats revving their engines and doing doughnuts in the bay is a problem for all of Drake Bay. Casa Horizonte is slightly away from the centre so less affected than some places

We had rented the Casa bosque which is an absolut gorgeous place to stay, in the middle of the forest with the most beautiful views. We coul see Iguanas and birds just on the tree in front of us. We were in the dry season. The access path when by foot is partially really steep, in the dry season this was doable for us. They picked us up at arrival with a car, so Seth lugguage was not a problem. Breakfast quite pricy for 12USD, but it comes with an other nice view and bird feeding just in front.Wwe had an own kitchen.

Steep access way

Karen and co were exceptionally helpful. Before we even arrived they arranged for pick-up from Drake bay air strip, they had our room ready early, they happily held our bags whilst we went on an overnight excursion to Corcovado, and arranged for our boat transfer to sierpe - Great communication via WhatsApp throughout - Beautiful room and incredible view from our balcony - we saw macaws, toucans, iguanas and more from our room - Great location close to the start of the Drake bay walking trail and not far from shops and restaurants

The property is up a steep track, might not be accessible to all - was fine for us but required a bit of planning to make sure we weren’t doing it more than we needed!

Great location, super staff. Not fancy but beautifully appointed. Breakfast was great, Karen arranged boat transport, trip to Corcovado Park, etc. No AC, but fans, and set on a hillside so good airflow, with great view of the bay, lots of local birdlife, small place so no crowds, quiet and peaceful. They did laundry for a small fee. Reasonable prices, highly recommend. There are cheaper places but with no view and less air flow, more crowded, noisier. I’ve stayed at 4 others places and this was the nicest unless you spend 3-4 times the price.

The only issue would be if you had limited mobility, as it is a fairly steep walk to the beach or town, 4-5 minutes, well maintained path but steep.

Brilliant accommodation, great views, very relaxing, great hosts. A bit of climb up the hill Pedro acted as a taxi service moving our luggage and us up and down to the boats. I recommend travelling by boat rather than driving across country it was a great experience as long as you don't mind getting your feet wet... there are no jettys.

The coffee shop was never open. So we had to drink beer.

Beautiful views of Drake Bay below. Exocrine birds on their feeders very close to us. Peaceful away from the dogs and children in the town.

Some would say the steep, narrow path up the hill to get to it, but we got a 4x4 up it. If people don’t want to do this they can leave their car at the base of the hill. The manager will take the suitcases up and down in his car, so there is no problem.

staff were AMAZING here. super friendly, great service and up for a great chat. served a lovely welcome fruit spread. make sure to try the lemonade!!! great coordination with the boat staff so you can get a pickup/dropoff (we walked). and also ensured we had a place on the boat for our departure time. drake bay is really small so it's easy to get to everything within 10 mins walk

The place is overlooking Drake Bay and surrounded by lush flora, stunningly situated. The hosts were super friendly, very helpful and two beautiful human beings. I was greeted with fresh fruits and homemade lemonade, and within minutes you feel right at home. A beautiful stay throughout and I'd highly recommend it for anyone coming to Drake Bay before or after their Corcovado tour.

The rooms up high right under the roof of the main building do get quite hot during the day, and despite the ceiling van it takes time for them to cool down at night.
