    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 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.

    There was not a ton to do right in Uvita. If I were to return to Costa Rica, I would spend more time in LaFortuna, Manuel Antonio, and perhaps stay in Jaco, which we avoided as we heard it was too touristy.

    Its a fun little town with great restaurants, walkable (or bikable) and a fun beach with small waves to play in. The beach charges $ to access, but this can be walked around. However... This is a rural community of Ticos with meager earnings and the town is now cropping up with lots of expensive homes, I suspect many from outsiders. I found this disparity unsettling and I felt like I was adding to the injustice by visiting.

    Keith and Joe have created a tranquil paradise in the hills above Uvita. Already before you arrive they open conversation to check for any special needs or interest you might have during your stay. Their level of hospitality and attention for details in and around the Casitas create a superb experience at another level! I loved every moment of my stay! Joe's freshly cooked breakfast at the pool can compete with the best. Besides that the hosts are super friendly which made me feel at home. Highly recommended!

    This was my first trip to Costa Rica. Our first airbnb did not work out but finding and booking at Gaia Ecolodge saved the trip! This personal villa had air conditioning, a great shower, king size be and was very clean. The pool was nice. The onsite bar and restaurant is amazingly delicious- having breakfast included was an added bonus. Also the best pina colada I've ever had! Would absolutely stay here again!

    Beautiful villa. Nice and light. Very quiet location with the national park/ beach right outside the property. Just a few blocks away the town is much more urban, but here there are toucans and white faced monkeys across the street. The very best part is the on site restaurant. Best meal I had in one month in Costa Rica. I really loved the attention to detail in this property.

    It was a great location away from the bustle of Uvita. We saw large families of howler monkey'a from our deck and white face monkeys. The rooms were comfortable and the deck was a nice place to relax. The pool area was a nice place to relax after a busy day. Breakfast was included and one of the best!

    Situated on a dirt road, away from traffic noises. Nice pool area and the room was spacious enough and cleaned every day. Nice that you can park the car inside the gate. I loved how everywhere in Uvita you feel close to the nature, birds fly by, even the scarlet macaws and we saw a hummingbird one morning just behind the hotels gate.
