Encanto Lodge
700m al Oeste del Aeropuerto, 61000 Drake, Costa Rica – Excellent location – show map
We loved the location - so peaceful and beautiful, and so many interesting birds and animals. Our hosts were kind and helpful and the food was awesome. We had breakfast and dinner there every evening. We especially loved all the sunsets and walking on the nearly deserted beach. Would definitely stay there again and will recommend to all our friends and family.
