The view from the room, restaurant, and pool was amazing. At the right time, the whale's tail could be seen from the restaurant! The room furnishings were basic, but the bed was comfortable, AC was cold, and the shower had nice hot water. They upgraded us from the lower building to the upper building so that was great which made it closer to the restaurant and had a higher/better view. The staff were friendly and helpful.
There was a spectacular rainbow in the morning!

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!

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 still an 'old school' destination IMO.
Uvita is still an 'old school' destination IMO. Had not been to Uvita in many years. The Pura Vida feeling is very much alive in Uvita. Development has been made for sure. The small beach town feel remains for all to enjoy. Backpackers can be seen on foot. The accomadations vary widely in price and 'quality' and there is lodging available here for nearly all budgets/tastes. All conveniences are very nearby including restaurants, transport, lodging, supermarket(s), ATMs, souvenir shops, coffee shops, sodas, Urgent Care and friendly people!

Elegant resort, quiet, immersed in nature with breath taking views of the sea from the most exquisite villas. The staff is quiet, kind, professional, the ambience is luxurious but not ostentatious. No loud music, no tvs, a temple of peace and relaxation for couples. The spa is a very upscale experience immersed in the jungle. The biggest surprise is the food: curated by a chef who truly understands simple, fresh taste for elegant meals matched with wonderful wines (and we are picky Italian foodies!). The 4x4 drive up to Kura was also so much fun and one of the highlights of the trip. Highly recommend, a world away from the obnoxious, loud, ostentatious luxurious all-inclusive resorts which have destroyed local cultures around the world.

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.
Javier & Mira, have a wonderful place and they are beautiful people. They made a home-made breakfast with fresh eggs, bacon and truly fresh, mouthwatering fruit while we sat at the bar and enjoyed great conversation with them. And they made the best pina colada I have ever tasted. The food in Costa Rica is so fresh with no preservatives and additives. They have wonderful place to escape the pressures of everyday life.
Perfect location! We had such an amazing time staying here. The host is super super nice and will give you all the best recommendations. The rooms were nice and clean and perfect for what we needed. We read that the food was sooo good but unfortunately we didn't get a chance to try it but it looked amazing. I would highly recommend Dolce Uvita to anyone planning to visit this area.
If you are looking for a stay with an amazing view, this is the place!
Also the pool and the staff was amazing.
For breakfast and dinner you can use the restaurant just below the hotel which is one of the best tried in Costa Rica.
Not suitable if you are uncomfortable with heights and steep roads as reaching the small houses/rooms might be challenging (a true experience)
The location is awesome, super close to the main highwat and also to the beach and main attractions and resteurants in Uvita. the staff at the hotel are super extra and really friendly. specially Katia, she welcomed us and was always looking to see if everything was good. I also liked the cleanliness of everything and the community terrace they have.
The hotel staff were exceptional. The breakfast was very good and we tried everything on our 4 day stay. The lounge area was relaxing and the music was too! We watched the Howlers and the toucans from our balcony every day. Great very of them water and close enough to hear the surf. And Playa Hermosa had some serious surf!
We felt very comfortable in the Tucan and it was great three days! The hotel has a relaxed atmosphere and a great lounge area. We really enjoyed the breakfast. The Gallo Pinto is one of the best in all of Costa Rica! Thanks for the nice time! The whale watching guides booked by the hotel were also highly recommended.
It really is a great location. The staff, although speaking very little English, did their best to help out. There is a blonde guy there who spoke the best English out of the staff and was very friendly. He tried to teach me a little bit of Spanish while I was there
Gorgeous property! You really feel like you are in paradise. Also, as non-vegans we were a bit unsure how we would like the food - but it was really phenomenal (some of the best food we had all trip actually).
Amazing views from the rooms and pool area, beautiful sunsents, toucans :) This hotel is a magic place. Great breakfast, pool area and gardens. The best hotel we stayed during our 3 weeks trip to Costa Rica.
- The owner Joe and Keith are best hosts ever
- The view and getting called to bed by toucans
- The pool is amazing
- Good breakfast
- An amazing Casita with a perfect bed - never slept so good like there
The location had the best view and the property was even better than we imagined! The host was super friendly, accommodating and met all of our needs. Highly recommend this property for a trip to Uvita!
The best kitchen I have used during my trip. If you're into cooking, stay here. The surrounding garden adds a lot to the location, it's easy to feel at home here. Also, staff was more than helpful.
I love the place one of my best vacation all the staff are so friendly special luis bartender , Adan receptionist I would highly recommend and I’ll definitely go back I love Costa Rica pura vida!!
beautiful hostel with magnificent surroundings. wildlife nearby. very clean, felt like a hotel. Liked the outdoor shower and kitchen. would absolutely recommend if you go to Uvita.
The hotel was recently opened, looks great, has good internet connection, comfy room. The entrance to Uvita beach is around 10mins walking (please remember the beach is paid).
The Host Christian is the best of the world. He Looks so good to the clients and take care of them. If you are in uvita is of cours the best Place to stay!
Thanks Christian
The bed was extremely comfortable and the private bath was perfect for a couple. When Uvita lost water on our last day, the hotel and neighborhood businesses just adapted.
Very charming staff, beautiful rooms and excellent amenities. The views from the room or the lobby are stunning. This hotel make us felt in love with Uvita.
