This place is very close to the beach and the park and there are places to eat nearby.

The owner was very helpful from the minute I arrived. She let me store my luggage and take a quick shower although I arrived hours early. She was helpful throughout my stay. So nice!

great location, close to the park and some restaurants/bars which is great if you’re staying for a short time and don’t have a car.

They only take cash for payment, their English is very limited (luckily I speak Spanish). Wifi was bad

clean, comfortable, great location, welcoming hosts

This property is an absolute gem! Given the low price compared to many places we had stayed, we were not sure what standard to expect. It was very clean, comfortable, had air con, hot water, spacious bathroom, shelves with hangers, an outside patio seating area, and car park space. The owners were expecting us on arrival, promptly came to welcome us, and despite neither of us speaking each other’s language much we were made to feel very welcomed. The location is superb - there is a fantastic falafel restaurant next door, 10-15 minutes walk to main town, 5 minutes walk to entrance to Marino Bellena National Park. Outstanding value for money.

If you haven’t read the previous reviews or are arriving in the dark, you might struggle to find the property. Think the sign on the main road said ‘Uvita lodge’ but it’s the same place. Follow an alley way to right of the falafel restaurant and you’ll get to the car park/entrance.

It is very well located, walking distance from Parque Marino Ballena. Clean room, it was okay for a 1-night stay.

The roads to get there are not in a good condition, specially when it rains.

Good stay within very easy reach of the National Park and about 3k from the waterfalls.

Good location, clean room and helpful staff

It was hard to find because the sign outside is actually Uvita Lodge.

OK basic hotel

Ok place to pass a night as conveniently located near to the entrance of the National Park. Rooms are OK size, clean and have airco. Friendly manager.

You have to pay extra for hot water, though thus was not really an issue due to the warm weather during our stay.

Excellent location and value for money in Marino Ballenas NP

If you are in Uvita for the Marino Ballenas national park (and/or diving in Isla del Canos), location is excellent, just a short stroll to the park entrance, the dive shop, and the restaurants there. Communication was good after the first hiccup (when I got a message in Spanish of "no space on the property" a few days before arrival and no response to my questions about it for a while on Booking chat). Room is no thrills but with basic comforts and clean, wifi and a/c worked very well. All in all, very good value for money.

These are not complaints but suggestions because I do wish the owners well - small improvements could make a nice difference. Entrance signs to the property could be clearer/repainted - I arrived in the dark and it was not obvious how to get to the property (the next door hotel/cabinas could not tell me where the property was when it was just on the other side of the fence... not sure what's that saying). The fact of credit cards not accepted for payment should be made clear before the arrival. There should ideally be someone on the property if not all then at least some of the time who speaks at least a bit of English. There shoud ideally be at least one chair in the room. A small TV hanging in a far corner that can be barely watched from the bed or the couch is owners' money wasted on the tv - some basic no-cost room rearrangement would make it more convenient and useful.

Great stay meters away from the national park!

Me and my boyfriend stayed there for one night and were really happy with it! Friendly and helpful staff, around 5 minutes walking to the national park, very comfy and clean room. Really recommend it, it exceeded our expectations!

Nice location, clean AC rooms

Convenient location - less than a 5 min walk to the national park. Air conditioning was nice. Beds were comfortable. The lodge is next door to a yummy falafel place that we ate at twice!

Toilet had flushing problems. Shower door was leaky, and water from the shower would leak onto the floor in the bathroom. Christophe was nice and helped clean it up and we just had to be careful how we aimed the shower head later.

Great location near the beach

Excellent location just down the road from Marino Ballena beach, which is beautiful. Air conditioning in room. Friendly host. Information booklet provided in room.

It has a very hostel like feel. There are only two small wire racks to put your things (one in bathroom). The beds are a bit hard with springs you can feel.

Very nice room, the owner was very helpful and friendly, the location was very convenient, all was good.

The location was not clear on the listing or Google Maps, it showed the location as down by the beach, which was not correct, so we had confusion trying to find the place and finally got help from a local.

Ideal stop to visit the national park for a night or two.

Location is good to walk down to the ballena national park. Room is basic but pretty clean. Helpful owners which is always a plus.

Beds were a bit uncomfortable and the pillows were a bit lumpy.

Good quality for quite good price.

Good quality for quite good price. Beautiful and quiet neighborhood. Idyllic atmosphere. Very close to the Parque National Marino Ballena. Restaurants are also just around the corner. Super friendly and helpful hosts. Room was big, clean and comfortable. We can recommend this place!

It’s not possible to pay by card. Hot water is payable additionally, which is quite uncomfortable with the relatively high price per room.

This a very good budget option if you are looking for affordable accommodation in Uvita. It is rather basic option but clean room and A/C does the job. The people running it are very friendly and helpful.

Lovely place

Great relaxed atmosphere. Sandrine and Christophe were amazing hosts, available, friendly and full of good tips. Restaurants are just around the corner as well as the entry to the NP and tour companies for whale watching. Perfect place to stay in Bahia Uvita.

It was okay

We could leave the car there for a few more hours after checkout so we could go to the beach. There is a falafel restaurant right there who was really friendly. It's walking distance to the national park.

It took us pretty long to find the Cabine as it's not where Google maps says it should be. The owner doesn't speak English at all but he was still trying to help us.
