This hotel is NOT near the beach or trailhead as stated when we booked on Hotels.com (hopefully this will be corrected), in fact it will cost you 10,000cr ($16+ USD) round trip for a taxi if you don't have your own vehicle - if you do, it needs to be a 4X4 as the road is steep, rough, unpaved, and has a river crossing.

Aguila de Osa Rainforest & Marine Adventure Lodge

Aguila de Osa Rainforest & Marine Adventure Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Aguila del Osa is a dream hotel with wonderful views from the bedroom and main lobby/restaurant. The hotel gardens are beautiful and we saw many birds including hummimg birds right outside our room. There is a nice walk around the hotel and you can also take a trail into the rainforest and the nearby Cocalito Beach, All the staff speak excellent english and are very friendly and provide excellent service. The meals are very delicious with generous portions. The hotel offers a good range of excursions and we really enjoyed the boat trip and snorkelling in Isla del Caño. Other guests went to Corcovado National Park for the day although we opted for the overnight stay booked through another Company. We would highly recommend visiting Drake Bay and staying at Aguila del Osa Hotel."
