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.
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 loved everything about the hotel! The beds were really really comfortable, well decorated rooms and apartments, a good sized pool and a jacuzzi, and surrounded by nature. It really was an excellent place to stay. The owner, Sylvain was an excellent host, and incredibly helpful. We booked two tours through him and he was so very helpful when our taxi didn’t turn up when we were leaving the hotel. I would definitely stay here again, and would recommend hotel Faremiti to anyone looking to stay in Uvita.
We likes this stay & the vibe in Uvita so much that we prolonged our stay, even tho we already booked another accommodation in Jaco which was not refundable- screw it.
The owner & also host Heri is amazing.
In the evening you can eat spanish at his restaurant next to the villas.
His staff are very friendly & there are two super cute cats as well ;)
Make sure to book a table at least once during your stay. He preps the whole food with so much love and passion- i had the best Fiduea ever.
This is one of my favorite hotels I’ve stayed in anywhere on earth, honestly - especially for the price. Absolutely stunning hotel with beautiful rooms, delicious breakfast, an incredible pool, and beautiful porches looking out onto the property - we were able to see white-faced capuchins and chestnut-mandibled toucans both days we stayed. One of the prettiest sunsets I’ve ever seen was from the restaurant terrace here, overlooking the Pacific past Uvita.
This place is indeed an Oasis. Michelle and Sebastian are heartwarming friendly and helpful and it felt more like staying with friends than a hotel. We weren't missing anything and we also had the most comfy bed and the best food of the whole trip there. The way they live self-sufficient and sustainable in the middle of the jungle is also very impressive. Saludos to them and to their junglebaby Kaia and babydog Leo
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.
We loved the Yuli Hotel! Such a lovely oasis in the heat of Uvita! Hotel has such a nice vibe, and the pool surrounded by the tropical trees is such a nice place to relax. We spent four nights and wish we could have had longer. Would def recommend. Seba restaurant is also great for meals, and bars does cocktails in the afternoon also.
Great place to stay in Uvita.
Nice, clean apartment with a big room in the middle of uvita.
Easy to walk or drive to the Ballena nacional parque or plays as well as access nice bars and restaurants.
The pool was very pleasant too.
The hotel manager was very kind and accommodating and they also offer a laundry service.
Really nice place, the owners and staff are really friendly and helpful, we have been travelling for a month now between nicaragua and costa rica and have stayed at a mix of places from budget to luxury and this place has by far the best kitchen and shower facilities out of the lot and is squeaky clean
This was one of the best places we stayed in Costa Rica. The owner and the staff are very friendly, there is a beautiful beach 5min walk from the hotel, and the whole place is clean and well run. We had a very good time there.
Thank you, Jakub and the whole team :)
One of the best hostels we ever stayed. We slept in a private double room in the new part. Great vibe. Clean. Nice people. Quiet but also cozy. Nature all around. Very user friendly: every detail is kept in mind. Would recommend for sure!!
It was the best place where we stayed in Costa Rica. Really nice and comfy. the common area is super good, rooms are clean and bright. Friendly staff. Beautiful and empty beaches are very close. Were absolutely happy to stay here
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!!
Everything was amazing! Monique and Hans are the best. The photos do not capture the beauty of this place. We were served an amazing breakfast the first day and welcomed with open arms.
