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.

NICE TOWN BUT READ THIS ONE WARNING
The town is small and nice and have a lovely vibe to it, apart than one WARNING- there are thieves in ALL the beaches, waiting to break into your car and also take your bag from the beach in one second- they are highly trained.
They have a new AI remote control which copy your car code as soon as you lock your car with a remote key - DO NOT USE A REMOTE KEY - then they simply pass by, open your car and take everything in seconds.
The police will do nothing, and if you have no 100% insurance you will lose everything. This is true to all the beaches in the south, and perhaps to more places in Costa Rica. I lost 10,000 euro worth of gear.

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.
the most friendly hosts!!!!
very courteous
we could ask any question and they was helping us
nice and clean rooms, fridge, A/C
nice pool to refresh
they also have hammoks and sunchairs in the garden
darts, table tennis and some games you could borrow
the hotel is next to some supermarkets, and 5 min walk from Uvita Nationalpark
the food from the Restaurant was amazing because they made the pasta by their own:)
breakfast was amazing and so delicious
fresh water any time
i stayed there twice and i really appreciate everything!
Loved my stay here! Amazing views! Welcoming and tranquil environment with only a few rooms. The room was fantastic with a comfortable bed and a balcony overlooking the jungles - perfect for monkey spotting. The small pool overlooking the jungle and ocean was a plus! Pablo, our host, was exceptional! He provided great recommendations and was very welcoming and friendly. Note that the hotel is off a gravel/dirt road so you need a sturdy car (as you do for most activities in Uvita since they are mostly on gravel roads).
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.

Small "resort" with 5 log bungalows in beautifully maintained property with secure parking in delightful Playa Uvita. Sparkling lap-sized pool and neat common areas. Easy walk to the Ballena Beach (for $7.00 pp). Small well stocked (low average prices) supermarket and fine decently priced fish restaurant very nearby.
The fans and individual rooms' AC made our stay comfortable. Hot water in the kitchen was great, as were the showers. Lovely patio for morning coffee. Birds abound in the area.
We ended our 2-week trip there and we could not have expected a better ending.
Probably one of the best hotels we have stayed in. The view of the jungle and the ocean were truly amazing. Very interesting and delicious vegan dishes, great electronic lounge music and overall private and relaxing atmosphere.
Very friendly staff (including the owner).
The hot tub and pool area was as well incredible with comfortable sunbeds.
We would love to come back!
This place was so nice that we decided to come back a second time. :) Despite the rooms having an open ceiling, we slept so well and it was quiet. Everyone seemed to respect each others privacies. The shared bathroom facilities were clean and never overoccupied. Breakfast was good as well. The shared kitchen is so well equipped. Absolutely stop by Cascada Verde Hostel in Uvita. Best accommodation we had in CR.
No sound proofing, so you heard every single truck and car go by, even though we had the room on the opposite side of the road. The owner was great and very accommodating. Breakfast was also good. The hotel is for sale and you can tell it needs some work. If you are a hard sleeper you won't have too many issues otherwise bring ear plugs. Good for one night's stay.
Flawless experience, meticulous attention to detail, spotless rooms and the complete hotel area, and an overall fantastic atmosphere. The hosts were exceptionally friendly and caring, and the breakfast was very good and changed every day. Without a doubt, this was the best accommodation during our travels in Costa Rica. Thank you!
Art Villas is truly superb and exceeded our expectations - it is beautifully presented and the gardens are some of the best I’ve seen for a hotel (and not gimmicky at all). Breakfast was also amazing - wish we stayed longer as we missed waking up with the jungle !
The location was great, just about 7 minutes off the main highway and close to the beach of Playa Hermosa and the town of Uvita, but quiet and removed, tucked into the hills, looking into the canopy.
Beautiful landscape and it was very clean but very, very basic. Great restaurant on premises. Had one of the best meals I'd ever eaten and great staff. Had a very nice and very clean pool.
Amazing hotel! Spacious rooms with breathtaking view (saw some flying tucans every day). Delicious breakfast options, small infinity pool overlooking the playa hermosa. Very friendly staff!
