The room is super big and clean. There’s a balcony and from it you can see/hear monkeys, macaws, parrots, iguanas, and so many more animals. We were also able to get reservations to Corcovado National Park through the person at the reception desk. At the end of the trip we were also able to get reception to call us a taxi within 5 minutes of needing it. It was a lovely hotel with friendly staff too. ##### Allison Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly Feb 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Birders paradise, friendly staff always there to help!!

The first night we were exhausted but woken up by loud motorcycles circling at 2:30am. Otherwise everything was great. Staff was very nice and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious. Bed was comfortable and room was nice. Pool was a nice benefit.

The best was the Chef Dixon. The meals he prepared were great. The downside was the air conditioning unit on the top of the bed with cold air on us. ##### philippe Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rich Aug 27, 2023 Liked: Amenities Mauricio was very helpful when we arrived, even gave us a better room as ours was on the second floor. And, carrying luggage upstairs would have been difficult. The location was good too as we had a whale watching tour the next morning and were able to leave our bags with Mauricio and walk down to the beach. Would recommend staying here! ##### Rich Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason Dec 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Mauricio the property manager is very helpful with information on tours in the area and anything else you may need during your stay. Laundry service on site is reasonable and quick. I was a week into my trip when I arrived at Hotel Margarita and I dropped off laundry in the morning and it was ready when I returned from my excursion. I highly recommend Hotel Margarita and will stay there again when I return to Drake Bay! ##### Jason Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Judy Mar 4, 2024 Liked: Amenities We were met from Drake Bay upon arrival and took us up the road to our hotel. The kitchen was very accommodating for breakfast and made us early breakfasts several days. The pool was beautiful and the room was air conditioned. Very nice. We also had a great view from the balcony of the trees and mountains and toucans on a nearby tree one night. ##### Judy Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely hotel Our room was clean, spacious and very well appointed with a comfortable King bed and a queen bed. Plenty of hot water and a good shower. Good pool and terrace with hammocks. The tree outside our window was visited every day by 3-4 toucans - fantastic to watch all their behaviour at such close quarters. Thanks to Mauricio for all his help. Highly recommended. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### DANIEL Feb 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The hotel is good value for money and in a nice location. Our room was quite dark as only the bathroom has a window but this was not a problem as we did not spend much time in the room. The pool area is quite small with only 4 chairs at the poolside which is not enough for a hotel this size. The staff are friendly and helpful. The hotel feels slighly outdates and could do with some renovations but the price reflects this. ##### DANIEL Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janon Apr 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed 5 nights at Hotel Margarita. We had them (Alberto) book our tours and found that if you pay cash (dollars or colones) you save some money on your tours. We did the snorkeling (well worth the money!) - 4 different snorkeling stops, an island stop and a wonderful lunch at a local restaurant. Corcovado Park tour - make sure and take shoes to get wet getting in and out of the boat, as well as shoes to wear while touring the park (they provide a lunch at the part and you are not allowed to wear your hiking shoes in the facility). And the surprise wonderful tour that we took was horseback riding! The horses turned into a river and actually walked in and out of the river - your feet get wet often (very nice as it cools you down), you then hike a little bit to a wonderful waterfall - wear your suit! You get to swim and it is SO refreshing! As far as the hotel, we loved the pool, room, and the location! Our room had a great deck and so many beautiful birds were constantly out there on the nearby trees - download the app Merlin - it will identify birds by their call. The hotel is a short walk to the boat pickup for tours, etc. and just around the corner from the row of awesome restaurants in Drake Bay. We ate at a different place every meal and loved all of them! Overall, we loved everything about our stay at Hotel Margarita! ##### Janon Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Josef Dec 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Yes ##### Josef Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Judy Aug 10, 2025 A decent option for a quick overnight with a reasonable price. ##### Judy Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Colleen Feb 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wonderful place to stay, we loved it! ##### Colleen Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Aug 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities There are many options for a luxury stay at Bahia Drake, which this is not a luxury place. It is clean, safe, and pool is great at end of hot day. It is excellent at a reasonable price point. It is not luxury but that’s not why we were here. ##### David Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liliana Feb 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The restaurant has delicious options of meals and the staff are friendly ##### Liliana Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark Mar 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hotel and location for the price.
