Paradise overlooking the ocean!
We booked this last minute as an alternative to our more rugged lodge in the mountains. It was a perfect antidote! The staff was exceedingly friendly and helpful, the location overlooking the ocean was breathtaking. The food was probably the best we'd experienced during out 10 day Costa Rican visit! Would definitely return!

Great value: views, peace and quiet
Beautiful hotel with excellent staff that are efficient with requests and speak great English; grounds are very well tended to by gardeners on site; rooms are very clean and kitchen is well stocked; efficient check in. Incredible views, quiet and secluded with howler monkey sounds at night. An easy 15-20 minutes to Uvita central, parque Ballena. Food is decently priced and very creative compared to most local fare. In the rainy season one would definitely need a 4x4 car to get up the hill, our 4x2 almost didn’t make it in the dry season. Great value- we will be back!

I can not say enough great things about our stay here. It was absolutely amazing. Our room was huge with a nice kitchen, bedroom had a comfortable mattress, the living room had a futon and the balcony view of the ocean was incredible. In the dinning area and pool area we saw and heard all sorts of wildlife. Monkeys were just down the driveway. Finally and most importantlye, the staff were all very accomodating and kind. Id love to be pen pals with the front desk girls (find me on facebook- sidney latch). You ladies really made our experience at this hotel special and we are so grateful to have stayed here for our honeymoon. Thank you for everything!
