    Very clean.

    I felt small room for 4 beds. We got 3 person in one and I felt that the air started to be not enough. I wouldn’t imagin with four, or if one stink or snore.

    Property response:

    Thanks for the visit. Just something to mention, if I don´t want someone to snore of share the space with me, I would not book a shared dorm in a hostel, easy to fix there.

    Nice garden and nice restaurant. Good position in Bahia nearby the beach! The girl at the reception was really kind

    No privacy in the room, i was alone so it was no problem but with other people there is no privacy. The bathrooms/showers could also be cleaner..

    Lots of cool birds around the property and even a resident crocodile (not near the housing)! It’s really close to the beach which is nice and there is a mini mart not that far from the property (5min walk) Supermercado is 20 ish min walk away but that’s uvita for you.

    I think they should invest in bed fans because the big ceiling fan is not enough!

    The location is perfect! You're close to the beach and that's always the main thing I'm looking for. The beds were comfortable, every dorm has it s own little terrace and all in all it's a super nice stay there! Nice vibe!

    The fridge could be bigger and big supermarkets are rather far away. But just become friends with someone with a car and do one big grocery shopping with them. There

    I liked the outside of the hostel more than the inside. The garden is nice and the hostel is really close to the beach. The room smelled a bit mouldy and small for 4 beds. But they have a locker for your stuff thats good ( bring your own lock )

    Clean and modern rooms, with good bedspace and comfortable beds. Nice with sinks in the room! Friendly atmosphere and a nice garden to look at birds and lizards. Staff was nice and friendly. Would definitely recommend!

    The common area could do with better seating - both chairs and tables seem to be non-permanent solutions. Sometimes there came a sudden awful smell in the kitchen area (maybe from the organic waste basket?).

    The staff was very friendly, the hostel was very clean, the staff cleaned the kitchen and the bedrooms everyday. It was very easy to connect with the others and the beach is very close

    The rooms are a bit small, if all of the 4 have a suitcase

    It was my first time staying in a dormitory and it was a really great experience. This place is very chill, calm, relax and clean. The garden is amazing with so many birds to watch. The kitchen is good, enough bathroom and shower for everyone. The vibe is super chill, no party or anything. Its not in the center of uvita but more close to the beach. You can walk to the beach its a 10 minutes walk max. There is restaurant around and places you can book tour with or rental a bicycle like i did so i was able to look around the town. I cant recommend it more !!

    Nothing :)

    Thanks a lot for the nice words, we feel really happy to know that your first experience in a shared dorm was a pleasant one. Pura vida!

    The location is great because you are 15min from the beach to either side and the main road where you have atm and big supermarket. Also, 5min from the bus station. The staff was really nice and helpful. Rooms are big.

    Of course that hostel experiences very much depend on the groups of people you have there at the time. I got really unlucky and got 2 days in a row groups very noise and the rooms have 0 sound isolation.

    Thanks for choosing us for your visit in Uvita. Pura vida!

    This place is just amazing, was the best hostel i stayed in Costa Rica. It was always Clean and you can see, the people who work there are enjoying it. The owner is really nice. The Open kitchen is perfect located, enjoy your breakfast and watch all the amazing birds and trees around you. I just loved it there and tbh did not wanna leave 😂. There are enough showers and toilets for everyone. The rooms have enough space, and every room has also a little Patio attached to it. It is also close to the beach.

    Property response:

    Pura vida my friend...thanks for making part of your return to Uvita, also for always having a smile for all the staff and the rest of the guests. We feel very happy to have shared some time with you. See you soon!

    The atmosphere is very welcoming and there is great social vibe but also a chill and relaxing space. The gardens are lovely and have a lot of wildlife. The hostel is in a great location, in a quiet part of Uvita only 10 minutes walk from the beach, next to a minimarket and with several great cafes and restaurants around.

    Breakfast was good (and cost effective for Costa Rica) but can be repetitive if you're staying longer term as there are only two options.

    Property response:

    Thanks for the visit and enjoying nature with us, it makes us really happy to share this little piece of paradise with our guests. Pura vida!

    Very relaxing vibe and beautiful area. All the staff is very nice and everything was clean. The Mattress was also good. Very good value for the money.

    The outside area could be a bit updated. A sofa or something instead of the broken chairs could do wonders. Also the hammock's could be replaced. Also some hooks in the bathroom would be helpful.

    Property response:

    Thanks for the good vibes and your feedback my friend. Hope to see you again in the future!
