GreenPoint Drake Bay

The noises coming out of the jungle at night were phenomenal. The nature encounters continued during our complimentary breakfasts with visits from birds and monkeys.

There were a lot, A LOT, of mosquitoes. Thankfully the beds had bug nets to protect us.

Chalet isolato e completamente immerso nella giungla a 360°. Camere un pò spartane, ma pulite, con zanzariere e ambiente TOP. Cucina in comune discretamente fornita.

Non esiste ventilatore, nelle giornate molto umide può risultare un problema.

The hostel is in the middle of the forest, great to hear wildlife and maybe (if lucky) to spot them. The host was super helpful and cheerful and the dinner was delicious

One bed was a little bit hard, and the pillows could be better

GreenPoint Lodge was truly a peaceful lodge nestled in the jungle. It is 1.5 miles from Drake Bay, away from the hustle and bustle of the touristic town. Juan Carlos created a sanctuary with focus on peaceful rest in nature. With help from his relative, Dweis (sp?), they both made the place a great place to stay for three (3) weeks. Within his finca, I was able to see Capuchin Monkeys, Toucans, Tapirs, Howler Monkeys, Scarlet Macaws, Spider Monkey, Poison Dart Frogs, all sorts of birds including Hummingbirds and Woodpeckers. This place was better than a tour of the Corcovado National Park. One of the highlights of staying at GreenPoint Lodge is the free breakfast. Keep in mind that Juan Carlos is also a chef by trade. For a modest fee, he also offers chef-created dinners and they are outstanding. Regarding the lodging, all of his cabins include private bathrooms, comfortable beds with netting, and your own private patio. If you are planning on visiting Drake Bay inside the Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica, I highly recommend staying at GreenPoint Lodge.

My cabin was the farthest cabin from the dining area where the free Wi-Fi internet is. I couldn't take advantage of the internet inside my cabin, and cell service is very limited due to the location. It would be nice if GreenPoint Lodge would invest in internet range extenders or additional routers near the cabin.
