The staff was very friendly and helpful when we needed assistance! The staff cooked our breakfast to order and it was delicious and filling! The common areas had tables, chairs and hammocks! The pool was beautiful and had lounge chairs as well. There was a field for children to play on and a big swing chair! The tropical plants and trees all around was so refreshing and we loved hearing the birds and monkeys in the morning. The air conditioning was key!!

Amazing views. We saw white faced capuchin monkeys and all sorts of birds (including hummingbirds and tucans) from our very clean and comfortable room. Very kind and helpful staff. They were even patient with my Spanish :-) The restaurant had good food. The best Gallo Pinto we had during our trip so far. We can definitely recommend the stay!

Hotel Cabinas el Tecal, hotel in Uvita

Hotel Cabinas el Tecal has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and bar in Uvita.

There are so many locally owned places to stay in Costa Rica making it a game of chance to find a good one, Tecal is a good one. When we arrived we found Tecal to be a popular destination as the parking lot was full. People used it for a vacation stay as well as for business. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff helpful and friendly. It was a short 300 meter walk to the beach. The beach is a national park so there is an admission fee, for Costa Ricans it is only 1200 colones. The breakfast was included and was very good. Service in the restaurant was excellent. There is a small super across the street, another restaurant, and a grocery store (MaxiPali) within walking distance.

Hotel Cuna del Angel, hotel in Uvita

Surrounded by rainforest, Hotel Cuna del Angel has setting 5.8 miles (7.5 mi) drive from Ballena Marine National Park. It features an infinity swimming pool and a spa.

The restaurant and the servers are the best part of this place and is why we booked here. Carla and Andres were incredible servers and were always doing everything they could to ensure we enjoyed our meals. Being celiac the 100% gluten free menu was a treat! It was so nice to be able to look at the menu and order anything. Even my partner who isn’t celiac said the food was very good. The reception staff and housekeepers were also very nice and did a great job cleaning. The views were very beautiful during the day.

    Uvita is a lovely area to stay in, with beautiful beaches and plenty of waterfalls to visit in the area. We recommend taking a trip to visit the mangroves in Sierpes. Our kids loved the surfing lessons they had here.

    Uvita is my favorite beach in Costa Rica.

    Uvita is my favorite beach in Costa Rica. It's huge, you feel alone on the beach. The wildlife is beautiful. Tons of restaurants and places to walk. There are different beach sectors that you can chose from. It is a National Park, so you have to pay, but it is well worth it. One ticket gets you onto all the beaches. Staff in the Nationals Park is very helpful and there are patrols on the beach from the police and the National Park Guards.

    Uvita was ungodly hot -- so hot that we really couldn't enjoy the sights. Even the ocean is hot. An airconditioned hotel room is a must! Even if there are many interesting birds and animals here, unless you have a high heat tolerance, you'll likely be miserable.

    It wasn’t my favorite place in Costa Rica.

    It wasn’t my favorite place in Costa Rica. Part of the problem was that it was so unbearably hot. I couldn’t go out and walk around comfortably. I didn’t go to the beach because of the heat and that would’ve been a big attraction also although my hotel was not far from town because of the heat again I found it unbearable to walk into town and walk around which I’d like to do when I’m traveling, so basically, my problems with AveUvita were weather related

    Uvita is not the typical beach town, as it's very spread out...

    Uvita is not the typical beach town, as it's very spread out and you need a car or a taxi to move around. In Uvita, you can visit the Marino Ballena National Park, which is possibly the most famous attraction in the area, where you can do whale-watching boat tours and other water sports tours like snorkeling and scuba diving. We visited the Marino Ballena National Park and found its whale-shaped beach very suggestive and unique. However, we were also very underwhelmed by the poor housekeeping of the park. There was rubbish everywhere and this is disappointing and upsetting given that this is supposed to be a protected natural reserve and you also pay for the access at a substantial price per person, which should guarantee thorough housekeeping. We went also to Playa Hermosa on our way to Uvita, but the amount of signs warning visitors of possible thieves, ruins a little bit of the vibe and it's not very relaxing having to watch your back all the time. Overall the beach is very nice and nothing happened to us. Since Playa Hermosa is also free to access, we recommend a visit, at least a stop by.

    The beach and marine park area are well worth visiting.

    The beach and marine park area are well worth visiting. Costs approx $6 which is very reasonable for Costa Rica. We saw humpback whales and heard them singing on our boat tour. We also snorkelled. It wasn't the right season for dolphins (they come in autumn). There is not much to Uvita itself. It's very spread out and hard to walk around. Most of the roads are unpaved and dusty. It's perfect for a bike though. Many places (including the marine park) close down at 6pm, including most of the tour operators. The restaurants are good. There is a yoga place there but it only seems to have classes Mon-Wed. The Tracopa bus service in the area (and from SJ) is very comfortable, punctual and reasonably priced. However you really need a car to explore the area properly - waterfalls etc.

    My favorite place! If you're willing to be slightly do-it-yourself (turning on a generator mid-shower), you will be rewarded with an absolutely exquisite place to stay. The view is outstanding of the water and surrounding coast line, the cottage is spacious and light filled, the pool heavenly (best view ever), and the staff (Nicholas) so down to earth, friendly and informative. Flowers, cows, amazing birds, butterfliey all around. We absolutely loved our stay for our family (one 7yo). We just regret we didn't stay longer.

    We were staying in Uvita for scuba diving and this property was right by the scuba shop. The owner was extremely responsive and helpful with recommendations outside of our stay at the property as well. The place is really cozy and you can tell the owner puts in a lot of effort into making it unique. There is no hot water, but the shower was extremely refreshing after a run (and it looks like showering under a waterfall in a jungle). The AC in the units works great - we had one of the best sleeps in a long time.

    We ended our 2-week trip there and we could not have expected a better ending. Probably one of the best hotels we have stayed in. The view of the jungle and the ocean were truly amazing. Very interesting and delicious vegan dishes, great electronic lounge music and overall private and relaxing atmosphere. Very friendly staff (including the owner). The hot tub and pool area was as well incredible with comfortable sunbeds. We would love to come back!

    Beds were comfy and clean. Reception was responsive and accommodating with a late check-in and allowing a late-checkout as well, which was really helpful. It's a very short walk to the beach which was stunning and pristine. Uvita is a cute, laid-back beach town, and in retrospect, I wish I would have spent more time there. At Yuli Hotel, I would have liked to have stayed longer to have been able to try out the yoga classes they offer above the restaurant.

    Sylvain connected to me immediately after booking to touch base and keep me posted with tours he helped set up while we visited UVITA. His Faremiti Hotel is exceptional in location and design; and Sylvain himself could not have been any nicer and available to us. We wished we stayed longer there and will definitely be in touch with him for future visits.
