Hotels with Free Airport Shuttle in Puntarenas Province

"Lots of wildlife (capuchin monkeys and toucan for us), good diving operation, good food, and attentive staff. Too humid for me and not much to do beyond lodge offered activities, but just a nice place to relax. Difficult access (fly into Drake Bat airport and then car and boat to reach the lodge)."

"Grounds were beautiful. Good security. Nice communal kitchen. Clean, safe place to stay. Good value. This is small thing, but did not impress. Manager wanted cash only. Said he did not have change. Said he would get it, but never did. It was only a few dollars, so we did not pursue. Also had sense that he was regulating our air conditioning without consulting with us."

"Wonderful staff and great location. They are open and ready to serve you!"

"This is a backpackers hostel so the facilities are basic. It is situated outside Drake Bay but there are bicycles available for guests to use or, alternatively, the manager can arrange for a taxi to take you to local destinations. He is also happy to arrange guided tours in the area. The garden around the hostel is fantastic for wildlife and there are local shops and cafes to get food."

"Drake Bay Getaway is an intimate and elegant resort offering fine dining, family-like hospitality and high end accommodations, all surrounded by jungle filled with wildlife and perched on a hill with commanding views of the Pacific. It is not a Caribbean beach and spa hotel.

Yens and Patrick are wonderful hosts and...

"Phone was stolen, aside from this quite a good place to stay. "

"This place is magnificent, nature and the animals are amazing, the staff and facilities are wonderful this place is worth your time and money! "

" Holly and Mark are wonderful hosts and their little place is a joy to visit. They helped me to enjoy the area and were available for chats and directions. You can walk to a nice secluded bay to swim in warm water. Or take a bus to other points of interest. Also next to a field of lovely cows ( I love cows!) Room was comfortable and shower hot. No complaints. I will definitely stay again."

"Playa Cativo Lodge is a wonderful place and the accommodations, food and staff were absolutely perfect. It was nice to be so close to the gulf which was calm, warm, sandy and perfect for swimming. My only complaint was that the entire front area of the lodge has been landscaped with grass and ornamental plants, many of which are not native. Because of this large open area few birds or animals come near the lodge. Bird watching was disappointing compared to lodges that have left the rainforest...

"The ocean view was very nice from both the room and the pool area. The staff very courteous and the tempurature of the water in the pool was exceptional."
