Because Drake Bay is the jumping off point for the remote and exciting Corcovado National Park, its location allows visitors to interact with nature in an authentic and unfettered way. Home to the tallest primary rainforest on the planet, a visit to the Corcovado National Park is a once in a lifetime experience, as the tropical terrain of the park is the habitat for an impressive number of endangered species and indigenous flora. Also nearby is Isla del Ca?o, a biological reserve that offers visitors proximity to some of the best snorkeling and scuba diving in all of Costa Rica. Visitors who desire a more tranquil ocean outing can also arrange for kayak and canoe trips around the reserve, where dolphins are a common sight.
 
Situated in this impressive location, Las Caletas Lodge is the ultimate getaway. Every detail at the lodge is thoughtfully placed to encourage stress-release and relaxation. This Costa Rican-Swiss owned lodge is small, only catering to a few guests at a time in order to maximize the Lodge’s dedication to seclusion and privacy. The cabins are set atop a lofty ridge that looks down on a private cove, a spot perfect for swimming. The forest slopes gently down to the edge of the property and gives guests a sense of intimacy with the tropical ecosystem nearby. The Lodge’s well-maintained trails lead to a secluded beach that offers guests a nice place to take a dip in the ocean. From here, many will choose to head out further into the water and do some snorkeling or kayaking. The gear for both activities is provided free from the Lodge. 

There are five cabins available for rent at the lodge, and each is simply but tastefully decorated. Mosquito nets above the beds ensure a good night’s rest, and terraces provide a place to sit in the shade and read a book. Using a minimally invasive system of solar panels and a water-driven turbine, Las Caletas offers modern luxuries, such as 24-hour electricity and hot water, without imposing any harm on the natural environment. 

Because of the Lodge’s remote location, Las Caletas is all-inclusive, providing three nutritious and delicious meals a day. A fusion of Costa-Rican and European cooking techniques are implemented, and meals are centered on fresh fruit and vegetables, fish, and fresh baked bread.
