Traveller reviews

“Classic hotel choice with wonderful sunsets”
15 Jan 2025
Beautiful location set up high on the hillside overlooking the Ballena Coast. Amazing view from room with great sunsets. Had dinner one evening and menu choice/food was excellent. Beautiful large pool.

“Not a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ experience. Unfortunately.”
30 Dec 2024
It’s actually a simple hotel with a big pool. The nature around is great but basically that’s it what was special about the property.

“Good resort and easy access to Marino Ballena NP / Uvita.”
02 Oct 2024
Very nice resort with huge garden and perfect view towards the sea. We only stayed 1 night, however, the service & staff was very good (we got a later check-out on request without any problem/charge). The rooms are very big with lots of space and a nice balcony. All is very clean and professional managed.

“Not luxury”
23 Aug 2024
Spacious hotel with great pool, especially for the kids, they never came out of the water! Great view and lovely sunsets at Happy Hour.

“Nice hotel with a wonderful pool”
13 Jul 2024
Wonderfull pool to relax at the end of the day. Not in the center of Uvita, but they have a shuttle to take you down to the beach. Staff was very helpfull in arranging a tour we wanted.

“Excellent stay”
24 Apr 2024
Everything was excellent: value for money, view from the room (forest, toucans, many birds), pool, restaurant, etc.

“Astounding views, comfortable bedrooms, lovely outside spaces and unforgettable sunsets.”
19 Apr 2024
Amazing views of the ocean and the grounds overlook the forest. Close to nature with all manner of bird life… stunning. Everything was very clean, the staff were fabulous. The owners stay here and they are very friendly. I would highly recommend a stay.

“Very good”
18 Apr 2024
The hotel is owned by an Austrian family, this is the reason why the service is better than elsewhere, we had dinner, was a bit pricy but good, breakfast was also okay. The rooms would need to be refurbished, but they are clean and overall we felt comfortable. You can see many birds early in the morning, Tucan etc. The garden ist beautiful.
