The staff is incredibly kind and accommodating. The jungle views and wildlife we're fabulous!! The only problem we had was getting there. Do not attempt to stay here without 4WD! The roads are unpaved and cross several streams with no bridges.

The mosquito screen needs repair - we had bug fly into room at night ##### Dirk Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 21 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities If you have chosen the Osa Peninsula as a vacation destination, than you are prepared to drive through seven rivers and over a plank bridge to get to Drake Bay. Proof that your intrepid nature can handle a shower that is intermittently cool. Although our gracious host changed our cabin for us, it did little to improve the temperture of the "on-demand" hot water and there is no television. No matter. That's not why you came to the Osa anyways! Hidden Paradise Lodge has much to recommend! In a gorgeously wild setting, the cabins are outfitted with what might be described as "rustic elegance". Breakfast and dinner were both varied and excellent. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 9 Dec 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 20 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Mike, San Jose, Costa Rica 16 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Simple but confortable bungalows. Very well situated for those wanting direct access to the rain forest. Not so easy for those wanting access to cafés beach and restaurants. Breakfast included and the lunch and dinner cooking excellent but to my mind expensive at $15 for lunch and $25 for dinner. There may be better deals if you take a package. Ask. ##### Mike Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 28 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 11 Apr 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stayed here a few nights in March, 2019. Costa Rica trip for spring break. The cabins were great! Spacious and private. We had a couple of cabins toward the back of the property. Each cabin has a front porch with 1 or 2 hammocks to relax in. Definitely secluded, but very nice stay and central to different areas in Drake Bay. Maria and family were wonderful--cooking was excellent ---delicious food. She set up both of our excursions to Sirena in Corcovado and snorkeling in Isla del Cano. We drove there from the Uvita area--we took the long way that was mostly on rodeway---but about an hour on dirt road--that was quite an adventure. You can also get there by a shorter route by ferry. If you are looking for great hosts and peace and quite--this is the place!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Davide 6 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Paradiso nella penisola di Osa Una fantastica vacanza immersa nella natura. Lodge in perfetta armonia con la natura, comoda per chi cerca la pace, qui la trova!! assoluto relax. ##### Davide Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrea 10 Aug 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful place, wonderful owners I traveled here solo, and I must say that Jorge, Maria, Anthony and the little girls were very accommodating. My trip was easy as they made it easy. This family is incredibly kind and good people. The area is beautiful, and you will go to bed and wake up to the sounds of nature around you. I recommmend taking a tour with Gustavo, who will scout out birds for you. Very close to the hotel, I saw a sloth, toucan, macaws, snake, trogon, and many other wildlife within minutes of the hotel. If you need to get to town, you can walk or pay a fee and the hotel will provide you with personalized taxi service. If you want to go on diving, snorkeling, park, or other trips, Hidden Paradise will take care of it for you. This place is very clean, and you will eat great food (breakfast is included, you can pay for additional meals). This small town and lodging are beautiful, and is the perfect getaway if you need to relax and get away from the business of your life. ##### Andrea Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Town Hall Hotel – Shoreditch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Town-Hall-Hotel-Apartments.h3231188.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Woodhall Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woodhall-Spa-Hotels.d4793.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel Magic Mountain SPA & Conference center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Hotel-Magic-Mountain-SPA-Conference-Center.h1636277.Hotel-Information) > > [Holly Tree Hotel, Swimming Pool & Hot Tub](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Appin-Hotels-Holly-Tree-Hotel-Swimming-Pool.h1775500.Hotel-Information) > > [Koora Hotel by Sandglass](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Hotel-Aguti-Lodge-Reserve.h33594530.Hotel-Information) > > [Poas Volcano Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vara-Blanca-Hotels-Poas-Volcano-Lodge.h5259118.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Tamarindo Diria Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Hotel-Tamarindo-Diria-Beach-Resort.h1108151.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Lapas Jungle Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Villa-Lapas-Jungle-Village.h1330482.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rutland Arms Hotel, Bakewell, Derbyshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bakewell-Hotels-The-Rutland-Arms-Hotel.h792056.Hotel-Information) > > [Cloud Forest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Monteverde-Cloud-Forest-Lodge.h2050850.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Luna Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Casa-Luna-Hotel-Spa.h2305532.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenal Observatory Lodge & Trails](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Arenal-Observatory-Lodge-Spa.h11820519.Hotel-Information) > > [Makanda by the Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quepos-Hotels-Makanda-By-The-Sea.h2328562.Hotel-Information) > > [Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Samara-Hotels-Azura-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h20586535.Hotel-Information) > > [Jardín del Edén Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Jardin-Del-Eden-Boutique-Hotel-Adults-Only.h2818928.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Hawes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hawes-Hotels.d182540.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Inn on the Lake Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gravesend-Hotels-The-Inn-On-The-Lake-Hotel.h11900067.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Tamarindo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Wyndham-Tamarindo.h10356916.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Heliconias Nature Inn & Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penas-Blancas-Hotels-Heliconias-Nature-Lodge.h8386216.Hotel-Information) > > [El Remanso Rainforest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-El-Remanso-Lodge.h11640675.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Belmar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Hotel-Belmar.h37178213.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [LOT-Polish Airlines](https://www.expedia.co.uk/LOT-Polish-Airlines-Flights.cLO.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Massachusetts (MVY)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/mvy/edinburgh-to-vineyard-haven) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Bangkok (BKK)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/bkk/edinburgh-to-bangkok) ### Activities > [Things to do in Civitavecchia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Civitavecchia.d602247.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Andros Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Andros.d180584.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Leeds City Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-Leeds-City-Center.dx6340976)
