We enjoyed the responsiveness of the owner, close location, great view, comfortable beds, easy kitchen and Jose (on site ) was extremely helpful and attentive. We did figure out the hot water in the shower but it is not something we were familiar with. I may have missed the explanation but I think something in the bathroom would be helpful.

Perfect location with amazing views! Enjoyed all of the beautiful birds that visited daily. The property manager Jose was more than accommodating. The home was comfortable and provided everything we needed for our 8 day stay. Highly recommend!

This is a quaint little old beach house. It is nothing fancy, but comfortable with a lovely view. There is not much to walk and see, but there are a few restaurants and markets close to meet your needs. It is also an easy walk to the beach where all the boats pick-up and drop-off. We enjoyed a gorgeous 360 degree sunset the last night from this amazing vantage point.

Great house in a wonderful town
This place was fantastic. The view of Drake Bay from the back lawn was beautiful. The location is in the heart of town, just a short walk up the road gets you to the two grocery markets and a quick walk down the hill gets you to the beach. The host, Kim, was incredible and helped us book tours to Corcovado and Isla Cano. Drake Bay is an incredibly amazing town, quiet and peaceful compared to other destinations in Costa Rica and this house was a perfect place for us to stay to enjoy. Can’t wait to go back

Drake Bay is a very small town, and this house is right in the middle of it, within a very short walk to the stores and restaurants, and overlooking the Bay. Other available properties are immersed more within the jungle canopy, amid the trees and animals, but farther from town. All options, including this one are great. It is a trade off though. I did expect to see more wildlife at this home, but saw very little other than hummingbirds. Loved the washer/dryer, kitchen, air conditioning, affordability, property owner, and location. Spoke to many locals and tour guides. They all knew this house and owner. They all had very good things to say about this owner and her contributions to the community.

Great stay in Drake Bay
Took two of my young teenagers to Drake Bay. The house is located on the tiny beach “cliff” over looking Drake Bay. The location is very convenient to the Grocery stores, hiking trails and restaurants. Drake Bay is a very quiet, small village and is a good adventure. The small house setup is good with two bedrooms - each with split unit ACs and open kitchen/sitting area. The hosts met us at the beach, as we took the boat from Sierpe. They helped with our luggage and drive the minute to the house. They were very knowledgeable of the area, offered great advice and can setup up tours.

Fantastic!
For the second year in a row we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Binya house. The location of the property is perfect, just above the bay with only a few steps into town. The house is clean, comfortable, and equipped with all the necessary provisions. We loved watching sunset over the bay and having morning coffee on the patio with gorgeous birds galore. Drake is a nature lover’s paradise and we will absolutely be back to stay at Binya house!

Excellent place for drake by
Clean, well located and fabulous view! Very adventurous area-we went to the cocovado Park, fishing and snorkeling with Eric, on a 5 am bird tour, a trip through the mangroves and 2 hikes to corcolito beach! Our favourite restaurant was Roberto’s as it was delicious and open to the ocean breeze. We ate in the house 4 times as the À/C makes it so comfortable in the evenings.
