chill youthful vibe country setting very much a surf camp idea. go in with the idea of a surf camp and you’ll be good. different noises than usual at night - more dogs, fewer loud motorbikes, maybe a little late-night foosball (not a problem depending on your room location). very convenient to the national park beach, setting with hammocks and plants. good kitchen.

go with a camping/surf camp mindset - if this is your vibe, great - you’ll sweat and see bugs and frogs and lizards, maybe a bat! if you want a little more refinement or bougie comforts, it’s not for you.

The staff was brilliant, the area around the rooms was super nice and green,

A bit far from the beach and stores but possible to rent a bike or you can enjoy a walk if you have time

The recommandation from the hostess for the waterfall and all the activites around we're great ! Super cosy place, great Time with the staff

everything the garden , the beds , the girls at reception and all the staff they even serve organic coffee and tea all day long

better rent a bike to go around town otherwise walking around supermarkets, beaches and rivers will be around 15 to 20min . they have really good deals with the bikes..

I liked the very nice volunteers that gave a real soul to the hostel. I like the kitchen close to the bathroom, the gas stove was very useful and functional, the kitchen was well equipped (and that's rare for hostels in costa Rica).

I didn't appreciate the expensive prices for activities and bike rental they proposed, it literally removed all the pleasure of staying there. One may argue that Uvita is expensive, but guess what you still manage to find all prices if you search well. Downing a bit the prices or making better deals (especially for bikes) would make the hostel better publicity! The competition for hostels is high, I bet that people would be more likely to choose a hostel that has an interesting personality, I think the volunteers helped a lot but you can do better. Maybe investing more within the garden, so that it can be a place to hang out with a beautiful light for example.

Got the double bed in the dorm Lots of hammocks Well equipped kitchen Free coffee Towels

A bit far out of the main places Dog tied up Not enough plugs in the dorm No events / activities

Nice common area with hammocks Fresh fruits in the morning

I was in a very small dorm next to the kitchen.

Quiete area, spacious common area, few hamoks, tables & sitting area, garden

4 bed dorm: - is aprox. 8 m2 big with almost no space for personal belongings. - mosquito net in front of window broken, thus in the night mosquitoes are in the room. - picture of booking is not the same like what you get. We got offered a dorm with a sick person instead of our tiny dorm. Thanks for that. - not enough lockers available. - is next to kitchen and common area, thus very noisy - almost no fresh air enters the room. It is very humid & sticky, impossible to sleep there if the rain didn't clean the air. - wifi not working in the room, outside of dorm with continuous interruptions - towel receipt depends on luck - no friendly welcome and flexibility with check in with me arriving at 9.30 am by german volunteer - hammoks need a wash - tryed to cancel 3rd night 3 days in advance which wasn't possible - Saw manager once in 4 days for a couple of hours apart from that no one around for days who feels responsible for anything or can provide any reliable information.

Nice

It was very clean and very good value for money. The kitchen is really comfortable and clean. There is a very nice common area and cool atmosphere. I recommend it

Everything was good in general. A small supermarket is within 10 minutes walk. The beach is 15-20mins away and the town is like 20 minutes away, but most of the hotels are in the area.

We instantly felt like home. Enjoyed the yoga classes, or just chilling in the garden reading a book. Even after a check out we went back and cooked together with the travel buddies. If I ever come back to Costa Rica, this is the go to place!

The employee was really friendly. Hotel in the forrest i like it.

Nothing

Very friendly staff, nice and chill vibe in the hostel and all the facilities needed! Host also gave a really fun surfing class!

The kitchen space was great. really enjoyed the communal areas. the room and bathrooms were clean and the staff were very helpful :)

The best kitchen I have used during my trip. If you're into cooking, stay here. The surrounding garden adds a lot to the location, it's easy to feel at home here. Also, staff was more than helpful.

The two hammocks behind the bamboo wall are uncomfortable and are installed incorrectly.

The staff was excellent. There are plenty of good restaurants and a supermarket within a 10 minute walk. The hostel is charming, with beautiful surroundings --- and it is quiet.

The only drawback for me was the location. It is a bit isolated and the dirt road is the worst in town, i think.

it was amazing, very clean, nice stuff and nice people! :)

nothing to complain about!

Lovely hostel in even lovelier village Uvita :)

First....very nice people! Beautiful outside area with hammocks and garden, calm, very good Breakfast. Well equipped and very clean citchen. Beautiful made and clean bathrooms. A little outside but no problem with the bikes they have. The owner even drived me to the busstop.

Nothing...

The Host is really nice.

The pictures of the room on Booking.com are different from what you really get, they look nicer on Booking.com …

it’s closer to the beach and far from the Main Street which is really good. liked bamboo trees and very peaceful environment. there were not much people when I was there. so calm and smooth environment. Adriana is very friendly. i was gonna stay for one night but I extended.
