Whale Tail Hotel, hotel in Uvita

Located in Uvita, 1.6 mi from Hermosa Beach, Whale Tail Hotel provides accommodations with a swimming pool, free private parking, and a bar.

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!!

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.

Big Bamboo de Uvita, hotel in Uvita

Just 1.2 mi from Marino Ballena National Park beach and reef, hotel Big Bamboo de Uvita offers free Wi-Fi connection in all its rooms and has a full restaurant and bar.

The hotel was as i had expected. The room was basic with an in room bathroom and comfortable beds. The pool was good for a cooling dip. Sitting around the pool before meals i was rewarded with an array of butterflies and birds. the stars of the show are Lucy and her daughter. They prepared restaurant quality breakfasts and dinners as well provided great conversation. it felt much like a home away from home. Big Bamboo is a very short walk to Uvita and its restaurants and supermarket. no i didn't get a massage or put cucumber slices on my eyes but i did meet some wonderful people. I would recommend Big Bamboo to anyone wishing to stay in clean / basic rooms at a very affordable price, be served wonderful meals and enjoy people who open their living space and their hearts to you.

    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.

    This was a lovely little house I rented for two nights, charmingly furnished, clean, quiet and with everything provided regarding appliances and linens, AC and plenty of hot water. There is safe locked parking. It's a locked facility from 10 pm to 7 am, a key is provided for the after hours, The best part is one can walk to the beach and nearby restaurants, no need to pay/hunt for secure parking. It's easy to find, good access.

    The views, location, villas and pool area are all fantastic - especially for the price we paid! We would absolutely recommend this place and would consider visiting again if we go to Uvita. It was the best WiFi and water pressure we had in Costa Rica (both weak in lots of the places we stayed) and we had an amazing member of staff looking after us during our stay, called Lady.
