2BR cabin in Uvita

C.8-Jungle View -Arboura-A/C(1room) Pool-FreeBikes - Cabins for Rent in Uvita, Provincia de Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Super cute little cabin and lodge. We stayed in cabin 8. It was right by the pool and had air conditioning in one of the bedrooms which was very nice while we worked on adjusting to the heat and humidity. Very simple amenities but we knew that going into it. Lived our stay and would definitely stay again.

Clean, rustic cabin, like camping in a jungle but with a roof and beds. Nice to have the swimming pool to cool off.

espectacular para una pequena escapadita!

We had a great time. Lovely hosts who were really friendly and helpful. Nice pool!

Had a great time with my mom and my boyfriend. It’s a family, or friends spot. Loved how close the beach was, and the restaurants around. Best part was the free bicycles- definitely made my time with my people more memorable. Even though we were able to park, the parking is limited and only 6-7 cares can park inside; if you’re comfortable parking outside then I see no issues. It’s a natural hotel meaning you might have nature guests just embrace it.

We loved the place; it is very quiet, nice, and perfect for resting. Everything was great, we would definitely come back.

El lugar nos encantó, es muy tranquilo, lindo y perfecto para descansar. Todo estuvo muy bien, sin duda volveríamos.

A perfect stay Absolutely lovely and considerate gites A very charming cabin, totally in the eco-lodge spirit, all made of wood. The surroundings, the pool, the hot showers—everything is absolutely amazing. Access to Marino Ballena Park is easy, just a few minutes' walk away.

Un séjour parfait Des gîtes absolument adorables et prévenants Une cabane très charmante, tout a fait dans l'état d'esprit eco-lodge, tout en bois. L'environnement, la piscine, les douches chaudes tout est absolument incroyable L'accès au parc Marino ballena est facile, a quelques minutes a pieds.

Good cabins in a lovely place. The lodge offers over 10 cabins pretty close to each others.

Very nice place surrounded by greenery, close to the beach and amenities. Pleasant and responsive staff.

Très bel endroit entouré de verdure, proche de la plage et des commodités. Personnel agréable et réactif.

I loved the place, the bed was comfortable, the pool was delicious and the place was super cool and ventilated

Me encantó el lugar, la cama era cómoda, la piscina deliciosa y el lugar súper fresco y ventilado

Great stay at this property, closely located on the beach, the hosts are knowledgeable,  communicative and accommodating. Cabins are clean and spacious!

Hi, we had a super stay here !! So close to such a stunning beach !!! Easy to self-check in. It was so clean with everything we needed ! Thanks

Great, super attentive and friendly hosts, the place has many amenities and is super accommodating. They lend you bicycles, there is hot water, everything is super nice!

Padrísimo, los hosts súper atentos y amables, el lugar con muchas amenidades y súper cumplidor. Te prestan bicicletas, hay agua caliente, súper lindo todo!

Located in a great area and with a very pleasant atmosphere.

Situado en una zona estupenda y con un ambiente muy agradable.

Very rustic. Parking is not plentiful, as described Gravel paths make pulling suitcases very difficult We got bit by ants whose paths crossed the gravel paths everywhere. Mgr did spray around our cabin, when he was asked

The perfect spot in Uvita! Super convenient location steps away from the beach and Bellena National Park. Staff was incredibly helpful and kind. The only thing is to make sure you park correctly (parallel parking rather than at an angle) if parking outside to avoid the police removing your license plate. The pool and common area was perfect for our family and we thought the grounds were a beautiful. It's not luxury, but it was exactly what we needed. We've already recommended this place to others!

Very well-equipped cabin where the living is good, the pool is a big plus. I recommend it

Cabane très bien équipée où il fait bon vivre, la piscine est un gros plus. Je recommande

Clean, convenient location, and super friendly staff. Highly recommend!

The Arboura bungalow was ideal for one night passing through. For more than two or three days, the bungalows would be too close to each other. Within walking distance, it has beach access and a super good Empanaderia.

Das Arboura-Bungalow war für die eine Nacht auf der Durchreise optimal. Für mehr als zwei-drei Tage wären uns die Bungalows zu nah aufeinander. In Gehdistanz hat es Strandzugang und eine super gute Empanaderia.

Very nice place a little basic would be good a second air conditioner in the second room as it is very hot and the fans are not enough but if I recommend it

Muy bonito lugar un poco básico sería bueno un segundo aire acondicionado en la segunda habitación ya que es muy caluroso y los ventiladores no son suficientes pero si la recomiendo

Always love staying with these guys. Perfect budget travel style accommodation. Walking distance to the beach.

Beautiful property! Has everything you need…next time in Uvita I’ll be staying here!

Very cozy. Clean rooms and practical design. Great location for entrance to Bahía Ballena park. Very helpful and kind hosts.

Muy acogedor. Las habitaciones limpias y diseño práctico. Excelente ubicación para la entrada al parque Bahía Ballena. Anfitriones muy atentos y amables.

Simple and super close to entrance is the park. Very convenient. The pool adds a nice welcoming. Hoping to be back soon.

Staying at Arboura is always a delight. Fifth time, and every time it gets better. It's always friendly and comfortable.

Family of 4 who stayed 9 days here. It was beautiful and we were happy to wake up to the sound of howlers as well as seeing them a couple of times in the trees mid day. Lots of birds and toucans which were very nice to see :) Walking distance to some local restaurants and definitely straight to the beach (this is a park that does charge a fee for entrance). Would recommend for those looking for a rustic camping style experience.

One thing is a rustic lodging, and another is neglected, we had broken sheets and bad smell on the mattresses. The cabins are not well built. The noise of the common areas in the rooms is very much heard. The truth we did not want to be hateful as the attention was fine, but at the end of the day you are paying for comfort and a neat place. I can't reach our expectations for the truth. How can someone make the bed and not realize that the bedding is broken?.

Una cosa es un hospedaje rústico, y otra es descuidado, tuvimos sábanas rotas y mal olor en los colchones. No están bien construidas las cabinas. Se escucha mucho el ruido de las áreas comunes en las habitaciones. La verdad no quisimos ser odiosos ya que la atención estuvo bien, pero al fin al cabo estas pagando por comodidad y un lugar aseado. No alcanzo nuestras espectativas la verdad. ¿Como alguien puede hacer la cama y no darse cuenta de que la ropa de cama esta rota?.

The place is a wonder for relaxing!!! Delighted, from fixed I'll be back!!

El lugar una maravilla para relajarse!!! Encantada, de fijo volveré!!

Great experience, beautiful beach, and people!

A place in the middle of nature. Very close to all the sights of the area. Highly recommended

Un lugar en plena naturaleza. Muy cerca de todos los lugares de interés de la zona. muy recomendable

The context is very nice but the solution is not suitable when it rains a lot. It stays very humid

Il contesto è molto carino ma non la soluzione non è adatta quando piove molto. Rimane molto umido

Arboura was a very nice and recommended place to stay.

Arboura war eine sehr schöne und empfehlenswerte Unterkunft.

The hotel is nice and the area feels very cozy. It is minimalistic - so don’t expect any luxury. In particular the beds were not comfortable and A/C was not available in one of the rooms - washing laundry costed 10 dollars. The host was very friendly and accommodating.

This is a beautiful location where you feel fully part of the jungle. Steps away from the beach and a few restaurants. The hosts are amazing and can help with anything you need. This stay is an open air house which is important to consider because the environment is very humid. Towels and clothes don’t ever fully dry. The beds and bedding had a musty smell due to the dampness.

The place was great and exactly as described. Definitely felt like we were in the rainforest, animals and all, but that was part of the experience.

We stayed one night before a snorkelling trip and it was perfect for us! Check in was easy, cabin was lovely and surrounded by greenery, and super close to the beach!

The location of the place we a short walk to the entrance to the park/beach. We grabbed surf and boogie boards right next door too. The grounds of the place were super cute and quaint! Ovi was very responsive and helpful, he did our laundry too. The only downsides were the uncomfortable beds, the power going out a few times, and the AC was only in one room and that room smelled like mildew. For the price though, it was a wonderful stay!

The home is exactly as described and in the photos. Ovi is easily accessible and very nice and helpful. The cabins are simple and equipped with the most necessary. Since they are made of wood and the windows are made of screens, you always have to expect an animal stuff. There was a room that was brick with air conditioning and the rest had fans. The beds are simple but ok. The kitchenette is well equipped. I particularly liked the string of lights, which made a great vibe. The shower is a garden hose and the water is cold. If you like to take a warm shower, go under the shared shower by the pool. The small complex is located in the middle of the greenery directly from there you can see monkeys and parrots. It's a two-minute walk to the national park, and there are also a few restaurants within walking distance. We can recommend Nativo, Kinsu and El Hornito. We felt comfortable there and had a good time.

Die Unterkunft ist genau wie beschrieben und auf den Fotos. Ovi ist gut erreichbar und sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Die Hütten sind einfach und mit den nötigsten ausgestattet. Da sie aus Holz sind und die Fenster aus Fliegengitter bestehen muss man immer mit ein Tierzeugs rechnen. Es gab ein Zimmer das gemauert war mit Klimaanlage und der Rest hatte Ventilatoren. Die Betten sind einfach aber ok. Die Küchenzeile ist gut ausgestattet. Mir hat besonders gut die Lichterkette gefallen, das machte eine tolle Atmosphäre. Die Dusche ist ein Gartenschlauch und das Wasser ist kalt. Wer warm duschen mag, geht unter die Gemeinschaftsdusche am Pool. Die kleine Anlage liegt mitten im Grün direkt von dort aus kann man Affen und Papageien sehen. Zum Nationalpark sind es zwei Minuten zu Fuß, ebenso fussläufig gibt es ein paar Restaurants. Empfehlen können wir das Nativo, Kinsu und El Hornito. Wir haben uns dort wohlgefühlt und hatten eine gute Zeit.

Unfortunately we had a bad experience but the host was responsive despite the dirt in the listing

Malheureusement nous avons vécu une mauvaise expérience mais l’hôte était réactif malgré la saleté du logement

We stayed for 4 nights and had the best time.  The pool was refreshingly cool, the grounds were clean, guests were friendly, and we even had a bat visit us in our cabin. They provide oil for cooking and coffee for the mornings. We walked through the park and saw monkeys, toucans, and macaws. The beach was lovely and super easy the access from the property. If we are able to come back to Uvita we’ll stay here again.

I'm sure other ppl would have a lovely experience here. It's reasonably priced, walking distance to the beach and has all the basics. in a shared communal hotel jungle vibe. but for me arriving to construction with harsh chemicals and then chainsaws two days later was too much. I was exhausted and doing my late 4 days in Costa Rica I'm sure it's great there when that's not happening, was just my bad luck on timing and I'm glad they refunded my first night & airbnb took care of of the difference for the construction they're good ppl and had work to do I just would have been more considerate in giving a heads up. this was not the right environment for a working professional esp if you need to take calls or need real privacy again for the right ppl it could meet their needs, just not mine

very nice place surrounded by greenery, a clean pool and welcome in these hot weather, ping pong table and lush garden. 4min from the beach and park entrance. bike available for free which is very nice to go shopping or go to a restaurant

lieu très agréable entouré de végétation, une piscine propre et bienvenue par ces fortes chaleurs, table de ping-pong et jardin luxuriant. À 4min de la plage et de l'entrée du parc. vélo à disposition gratuitement ce qui est très sympa pour aller faire des courses ou se rendre à un restaurant

Our stay was perfect. Rustic cabins super close to the beach. Restaurants walkable. Quiet. It was super hot when we were there so it was really nice to have a pool to jump into. We would stay here again if we are ever in Uvita!

Ecolodge , is a very cool name, very nice environment and the ocean the park nearby . Passionate about nature do not hesitate. PURA VIDA

Ecolodge , porte bien son nom très cool, très bel environment et l'océan le parc à proximité . Passionnés de nature ne pas hésiter. PURA VIDA

Quiet accommodation and 5 minutes walk from the beach and surf rental on the way. 4 Bikes available for free as well as a long edge and a bodyboard. 8m x 4m swimming pool.

Logement calme et a 5 minutes a pieds de la plage et location de surf sur le trajet. 4 Vélos a dispo gratuitement ainsi qu'un long bord et un bodyboard. Piscine de 8m x 4m.

We stayed in the eco cabins for one night. It was ok, basic accommodation. We liked the pool and being close to the beach. The cabins are wooden, beds are squeaky. There is only cold shower in the cabin, but it was enough as it was very hot outside and just what we needed to cool down. Staff is friendly, location very near to the beach.

I enjoyed my stay at Arboura, just three minutes from the beach. I felt very safe as a solo traveller. I would recommend for anyone who wants to be close to nature.

Great location. Close to Parque Nacional Marino Ballena that is walking distance to the whale tail. The host was very attentive and made sure your stay was perfect. I would stay here again.

The property is beautiful, but just be very aware that it is like staying at a summer camp cabin. Cold showers, open air cabin, and bugs and geckos can come into the room. There is one hot shower on site, but it is shared/communal. The walk to Marino Ballena park was very short, but the walk to the whale tail landmark was about 45-55 minutes. The hosts are VERY friendly and informative, and gave us local food recommendations which we loved, as well as options for things to do. We enjoyed the pool and the ping pong table too!

From booking to departure, everything was well communicated and absolutely lovely. My friends and I arrived in the area earlier than check-in and we were allowed to store our belongings at the reception, as well as make use of the common spaces (we swam in the pool). Even then, our room was cleaned and made available before our check-in time. They had excellent selections for restaurants and taxis to get around if you desired to be in the center of town or in an adjacent town. We selected the location because it was walking distance to the beach and we were surrounded by nature. As soon as we arrived we saw various tropical birds and the next morning at sunrise we saw the howlers rising in the forest as we walked to the beach. The cabin was cozy, tucked into the corner of the property, and private. The cool shower was a delight after the warmth of the sun on our skin. The beds were comfortable and the option of fans and A/C were in the space if needed. I highly recommend staying here!

Nice and cute cabines overlooking the pool. Spacious living room, well equipped kitchen. Fast WiFi (~100Mbps). Close to the beach. Possibility to borrow bikes for the supermarket. It is good to have such a broad view but you lose privacy. Can be quite noisy when families are at the pool. The shower should be less rustic (it is just a hose). There were quite some misunderstandings with various check ins when reception was already closed (cabines are not properly marked so our cabin was occupied when we arrived).

Very friendly and uncomplicated people. Cozy lodge. Everything is perfect!

Sehr freundliche und unkomplizierte Leute. Gemütliche Loge. Alles bestens!

Beautiful surroundings, and most days you get to wake up to the toucans, parrots and monkeys, feels like living in a garden. Very helpful and friendly staff. just be aware there are lots of bugs since you are in the forest

The place is accurate as seen in the photos and with very clean facilities, the pool has a roofed part that seemed great for the hours of the day when the sun is very strong, surrounded by nature and in less than a 5-minute walk you are on the beach! We didn't meet the hosts but we didn't miss anything, they include everything basics for cooking (oil, salt, sugar, coffee even ice.) We were going with 2 kids and they enjoyed the facilities

El lugar es preciso como se ve en las fotos y con instalaciones muy aseadas, la piscina tiene una parte con techo que nos pareció genial para las horas del día en que el sol es muy fuerte, rodeado de naturaleza y en menos de 5 minutos caminando estás en la playa! No conocimos a los anfitriones pero no nos faltó nada, incluyen hasta lo básico para cocinar (aceite, sal, azúcar, café incluso hielo.) Andábamos con 2 niños y disfrutaron las instalaciones

The place was absolutely lovely, we love nature and it was the perfect combination between nature and also close to town and the beach. The place itself was cozy and well equiped for our needs. Oh and our host Oby was super friendly and helpful.

My family and I stayed at one of the booths. The place is very quiet and very comfortable. Has all the comforts you need. Everything was very very clean and very tidy. We didn't expect to find some things that the place offers such as ice,  coffee, sugar, free oil and also lend you bikes. Osvaldo was very nice and very understanding. I am always attentive to any questions or queries I am always attentive to any It's 5 minutes away from one of the entrances to Ballena Marine Park. And there are lots of activities to do close by. Highly recommended, we will definitely be back.

Mi familia y yo nos hospedamos en una de las cabinas. El lugar es muy tranquilo y muy cómodo. Tiene todas las comodidades que se necesitan. Todo muy limpio y muy ordenado. No nos esperábamos encontrar algunas cosas que el lugar ofrece como hielo,  café, azúcar, aceite gratis y también te prestan bicis. Osvaldo fue muy amable y muy comprensivo. Siempre estubo atento a cualquier duda o consulta. Está a 5 minutos de una de las entradas del Parque Marino Ballena. Y hay muchas actividades que hacer cerca. Muy recomendado sin duda regresaremos.

Beautiful place! Next to the park entrance! Great welcome!

Magnifique endroit ! À côté de l’entrée du parc ! Accueil super !

The room is as shown in the photos, an incredible place for an excellent stay, with all the comforts of being in a house, the very friendly host, showed us the places of interest, restaurant, supermarkets and places of interest, I would definitely stay here again.

La habitación es tal cual en las fotos, un increíble lugar para para una excelente estancia, con todas las comodidades de estar en una casa, la anfitriona muy amable, nos mostró los lugares de interés, restaurante, supermercados y lugares de interés, sin dudas volvería a quedarme aquí.

Cozy cabins with C(Gl) amping feeling, as the living area is almost outdoors (but with mosquito net). Close to the beach and nature. Pool is super refreshing! There were bikes and a boogie board to rent. However, the cabin only had one room with AC, the second bedroom didn't. Since it is very close to nature, you also have to expect all kinds of insects in the cabin;) Overall, but we enjoyed it very much

Gemütliche Hütten mit C(Gl)amping Feeling, da Wohnbereich quasi im Freien (aber mit Moskitonetz). Nahe am Strand und der Natur. Pool ist super erfrischend! Es gab Fahrräder und ein Boogie Board auszusleihen. Die Hütte hatte allerdings nur ein Zimmer mit AC, das zweite Schlafzimmer nicht. Da es sehr Nahe der Natur ist, muss man auch mit allerlei Insekten in der Hütte rechnen ;) Insgesamt aber hat es uns sehr gut gefallen
