Drake Bay Vacation Packages

Ronny and his staff were so kind and accommodating and made this stay absolutely worth it. We were welcomed with a cocktail and had a custom ordered tasty breakfast every morning. The room itself is small (and no door to the bathroom) but it is all you really need. The secluded rooftop patio was our favorite place to be during sunsets. The restaurant is bustling but the noise dies down early in the night. The property is on top of a hill (car required) and is about a 10 minute drive to everything. Thank you for hosting us!

Our stay at Cielo Lodge was absolutely unforgettable and exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome with their warmth, attentiveness, and willingness to help with anything we needed. Their hospitality truly made the experience extra special. The food was another highlight of our trip — every meal was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The local ingredients and creative dishes gave us a true taste of Costa Rica, and dining with such breathtaking surroundings made it even more memorable. Cielo Lodge offers an amazing variety of activities, making it easy to experience the beauty and adventure of Costa Rica. Whether exploring nature, enjoying guided excursions, or simply relaxing and taking in the scenery, there was always something wonderful to do. The grounds themselves are absolutely gorgeous — lush, peaceful, and immaculately maintained. What truly amazed us was the incredible wildlife surrounding the lodge. We saw colorful birds, monkeys, and so many beautiful animals right in their natural habitat. It felt like being immersed in a tropical paradise. If you are looking for a place that combines luxury, adventure, incredible food, outstanding service, and the superb wildlife of Costa Rica, Cielo Lodge is truly a hidden gem. We cannot wait to return.

Service is outstanding. All staff were very helpful and friendly at all times

Absolutely everything was perfection. The welcome, the extras, the room, the ammenities, the grounds, the spa, the food, and most of all the staff; for making our experience unforgettable. We were so spoiled and it was so beautiful, we never wanted to leave. Except maybe to try their sister resort, The Springs. We even met the owner, who happened to be in town, and he was delightful. Definitely coming back and letting everyone know this is the place to find peace and luxury in Costa Rica.

From our arrival to our departure, everyone was so nice and accommodating! Chichi handed us a delicious complimentary welcome drink and Esther checked us in with a smile! This trip was a college graduation gift for my son and our stay was wonderful! Antonio was a during breakfast. Kevin took awesome pics for us during the night tour. We loved it here!!!

If you want ultimate rainforest luxury and top level service you should stay here. Not to be missed. Raft in and out via the Pacuare river and be completely enveloped by the forest and river in the middle of nowhere while having high level meals breakfast, lunch and dinner, incredible adventure programs like zip lining through the canopy and repelling down little waterfall. Seriously. 1000% The food was top tier. The service was thoughtful and personal. The staff is amazing. And they have great wifi. In the middle of nowhere. Deep jungle. The rafting is world class. I had a Linda vista villa and it was an absurd amount of space and privacy with a personal plunge pool. Come back from dinner and your lights are on, fan going and curtains drawn. Seriously, stay here. I'm coming back again someday.

This eco-lodge was a wonderful place to stay. The location is excellent—just a 10-minute drive from Manuel Antonio National Park, and within a short driving distance of many restaurants with beautiful ocean views. The room was simple, spotless, and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. From the moment I arrived, the hospitality stood out. I was welcomed with a gorgeous complimentary drink, and in the evening, a delightful surprise was delivered to my room: a cacao ball with powdered cacao and a glass of warm rum—a unique and memorable treat. I had a 7:00 a.m. entry pass for Manuel Antonio National Park, but since breakfast normally begins at 7:00, the staff kindly offered to serve mine at 6:30. Their flexibility was greatly appreciated, and the breakfast of the day—flautas—was absolutely delicious. The combination of the beautiful setting, thoughtful service, and warm hospitality made this a stay I would happily recommend.
