Hotels near Isla Violin

Can't say enough about Anouk and Kevin's hospitality. Sabalo Lodge is off the beaten path but this is what we were looking for. After spending several days in La Fortuna and then Monteverde, our arrival to Sabalo Lodge felt like we had finally arrived to the Costa Rica we had come to experience. The food Kevin prepared for us was out of this world. No exaggeration! The large cabin we stayed in was very nice and spacious, beds very comfortable and a great porch to sit and relax or swing in the hammock. The grounds are very beautiful and we enjoyed the natural swimming pool each day we were there. Kevin arranged and took care of all the booking for our tours which were close by and didn't involve a whole lot of extra travel time in between. Free access to the kayaks was a bonus!! LOTS to explore close by. My son who is 9 had a fantastic time!

Everything - location close to a wonderful Beach, good hiking and tour options great hosts, delicious food location beautiful and clean

The location was amazing. Right in the middle of the jungle. Lot's of animals and birds arrownd. Lovely hosts, good food. Clean and comfortable room. We had cold water showers but didn't care. This is the Ideal place if you want an authentic and relaxed vacation. Not suitable for people who search for luxury... We fell in love in the stuff ❣️ had wonderful tours Which they recommended. Felt sorry to leave

It was a great stay, and John was very kind and helpful! Our place was very clean and we loved waking up hearing the birds and howler monkeys in the morning.

Drake Bay is a remote yet breathtaking destination, and our stay at Natural Drake Bay Hotel made our visit truly unforgettable. We spent four nights here as the final leg of our Costa Rica trip, hoping to find a comfortable place that would enhance our experience of this faraway corner of the world. I’m thrilled to say we couldn’t have chosen a better place. Natural Drake Bay is a family-run hotel situated in a stunning location, perched perfectly to offer beautiful views of the bay. Both the pool and restaurant offer stunning views of the bay, creating a mesmerizing scene —at one point, we even saw whales jumping from the water! The beach is also just a 3 minute walk. Patricia, Daniel, and their team, particularly Victor, provide a luxurious experience. Throughout our stay, we felt very well cared for. Everyday, when you arrive, Patricia welcomes you with refreshing, beautifully scented cold towels, which is a wonderful treat after a hot day. Victor then serves the most exquisite fruit juices I’ve ever tasted. Even when activities (Corcovado Park visit, Snorkeling in Caño Island, ….) started at the crack of dawn, they were there to prepare breakfast for you The hotel takes great pride in highlighting local cuisine at dinner, with top quality produce exquisitely cooked. The rooms offer views of the surroundings, which were full of life (Birds, Iguanas, Monkeys) and relaxing in the hammocks was a spectacle in itself. Toucans would perch in the tree next to the cabin, while showering. The toiletries were of high quality, adding to the overall sense of luxury. In summary, Natural Drake Bay Hotel provided us with an exceptional experience, combining comfort, natural beauty, and warm hospitality.

Everything. The food, the location, the room.

Great place in the countryside, the owner's son spoke very good English, all problems were able and willing to solve. there is a warm family atmosphere. In the end I cooked dinner in the owner's kitchen alone for the whole family, we talked for a long time afterwards.....

We had a lovely stay, good breakfast, Catherine was very kind and well informed, booked a great snorkeling tour for us

We loved everything. We had an amazing stay. The staff is very professional and nice. The rooms are very comfortable. The hotel is really nice. The location is perfect, close to the beaches and trails. Food is excellent. We wish we could stay longer.
