We loved our stay at the hotel! First of all, the design of the hotel is beautiful, not only the overall buildings, but also the details. Also, the service was very good, including the check-in process, the breakfast and the room service. We always felt very welcome thanks to the friendly staff. Lastly, the hotel is secure, with the front door being locked all day, and the beach and some restaurants can be reached by walking.

A great place to stay! The jungle villas are a perfect place to stay and relax. Beach is in walking distance and the salt water pool is open all day. Very kind owner David helps and supports you in every aspect of your stay! P.S.: Ask for the little scooter to explore the waterfalls and nice beaches up north of Uvita.

This is the perfect place to stay in Uvita. Walking distance to the national park's beach (the best one around) and restaurants. A very short drive (few minutes) to many other restaurants, shops etc. With private, very secure parking. The cabinas are very comfy and had everything we needed. It's just 3 of them there, so it's pretty intimate. All the amenities worked great, including AC. Theres a very nice pool and you're surrounded by tropical plants and birds. And of top of that Scott is a very welcoming and super helpful host. Tip: trips booked by him are cheaper than when do it online in the same agencies. Lovely place, 10/10. Thanks Scott!

Delicious breakfast the bed is the one of the best bed we slept in during our trip in Costa Rica. Room super cute and clean. Leonardo is an amazing host. It was raining a lot when we were there and Leonardo treally ried his best to help us planing the rest of our trip by contacting friends. Unfortunatly, because of the rain we did not have the chance to enjoy the beautiful view but we are sure it is amazing !

There's an uplifted elegant energy throughout the grounds, from the security guard to the cleaning staff. Our two story unit smelled like rich wood. The layout was excellent design for safety, privacy, and super comfortable beds, chairs. AC was great in each bedroom, fans, curtains all clean and in great condition. The bathrooms lighting, hot water and linen quality were exceptional. It is worth mentioning that there we few mosquitos for Ojochal. The space is ample and well equipped for cooking or working remotely, even if there were several occupants. I could stay here long term. My 14 year relaxed. He enjoyed the pool, and commented on how intelligent the whole plaza was with a pharmacy, spa services, bar, store and restaurant all weaved together with hotel. We cannot say enough about the restaurant and we booked another night at end of trip because my son has to come back for more. Citrus is a gem. Families can relax and enjoy pool day, see many bird and plant species.

Everything was perfect, our host was very nice and available for every questions we had. The pool and the terrace have beautiful view to the sea and you can observe lot of birds from those places. Breakfast was delicious. The hotel is very well located, close to Uvita and Park Marino Ballena.
