Kenneth was a great host who met us at the beach from the boat as well as helped us meet the boat when we left. The room was very clean and the ocean view from the balcony was gorgeous and a great place to sit and unwind. Loved the location.

The cabina had an extra extraordinary view. We loved that the bedrooms were closed off and did have air conditioning, but that the rest of the unit was completely open The house cleaning staff did an excellent job of cleaning every morning I had laundry done, and it was very reasonably priced and done very well The unit is within walking distance to almost everything but best of all the beach is right there!

Was exactly what we needed for the circumstance. Inexpensive overnight spot to sleep, so as to be ready for snorkeling tour the next morning, along with a bonus view of the ocean. Staff super accommodating on holding on to our luggage after check out. Some unique notes: - Getting to the area def needs all-wheel drive - Meals aren't included, but can be purchased if ordered in advance - No front desk check-in/check-out (noted in the description), just need to communicate with the staff over the app or Whatsapp - Very flexible staff

My husband and I found this property that was right in the beach. You can hear the waves you are that close. We took walks on the beach and Kenneth helped set up the scuba and snorkel trip we too that picked us up on the beach !! We had a room with outdoor kitchen and balcony with hammock and a view of the ocean. We would return to the same room if we visit Drake Nay again !!

Clean room, amazing staff! The perfect room for after a stay at Corcovado Sirena. The bed was so very comfortable, cozy. For future guests, I’ve learned over the past few weeks that 90% of the showers in Costa Rica are a little different than what many people from the US and GB are accustomed to. It’s mostly room temperature water that comes out but there is some sort of heating element. I wish someone had warned me. My recommendation is get used to it, it’s still a great shower. The faster you accept it, the happier you will be.😊 I highly recommend Casita Genesis!!

Die Unterkunft ist direkt am Meer das hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Personal war toll. Wir waren zu früh da und durften trotzdem sofort einchecken. 😊 Das Zimmer war auch sehr schön, wenn auch klein. In der Tür war leider eine Ritze, so dass Mücken und die Hitze immer rein können und der Weg zur Unterkunft ist extrem steil hier muss gut aufgepasst werden. Wir würden es trotzdem weiterempfehlen ☺️
