Homestays in Uvita

Elizabeth United States

It was nice to have a kitchen and the plates/utensils/etc. were well stocked. The location was fantastic, very short walk to the beach. 10-15 minutes? And you are in a quiet area, there's a river and so much wildlife that you can just stare at while you enjoy a meal. Everyone who was staying here was very kind and it was easy to socialize which I find important as a solo traveler. Naturally, this will depend on the group that you get during your travels. There is a workout area, which could be nice. It's minimal but it's better than nothing if you'd like to work out. There's a restaurant that's run as part of the hostel. If you pay cash, you get a small discount as a traveler staying at the hostel. The room I was in had a shelf and drawers to be split among the travelers (1 shelf and ~1 drawer each), which I found to be sufficient and nice. The patio provides a place to dry clothes. There is no AC but there is a fan. I was always comfortable sleeping. It takes a long time for anything to dry here so consider packing clothing that is quick dry. Also, thanks to the humidity on the coast of Costa Rica, it's quite difficult to wear long layers as I typically do while traveling - so as a non-related hotel note I would consider this as you pack and maybe pack more shorts (I only had one pair and regretted it). The staff are incredibly helpful and willing to help you with your planning and the questions you may have about your travels. Sheets are changed daily. I really liked it here and would stay again. I think the value is great for the price. As a reminder for the things I forgot...1 - there are lockers, bring a lock to lock up valuables. 2 -soap/shampoo are not provided for showering, so be sure to bring your own! (And as a note to humidity, bottles of soap/shampoo are better as my soap bar would not dry in my time in Costa Rica) 3 -Towel is not provided, bring your own or be prepared to spend $1 a day to rent

This was a cute place to stay in a neighborhood setting, near some waterfalls. Everything felt fresh and clean. It is attractively decorated and landscaped. The owners are really nice. The Wi-Fi worked well. The kitchen is simple, but very clean, and everything was in good condition. The shower in our room was large and had the option for warm water.

Very cozy place, very quiet, comfortable mattress, nice common area (kitchen, pool). Manager Wendy is very spontaneous, she introduced me to local way of living. Nice flora and fauna around property, birds, monkeys..

The staff are amazing. So kind & friendly. Everyone went out of their way to make us feel like family. We ended up booking 2 extra nights because I was too sick to travel and it was the perfect place to rest. ( we also loved the resident cat. Such a sweet little one)

We absolutely LOVED our stay here! Tio and Tia were such a warm and hospitable couple… Super friendly with small chats and they knew to give you some space. The pool was immaculate and a great reprieve from the blistering sun. Our rooms were basic and clean, and the shared toilets/ showers were clean and never a queue. We would definitely come back here any time in this area.
