Top Hotels Near Punta Uva Beach in from NZ$69

"This Eco Lodge was a pure place in Paradise! I am a female solo traveler, came to ring in my 60th birthday to enjoy the Pure Vida life. This place did not disappoint! Waking up to the sound of howler monkeys, even some crazy coo-coo bird, echoing through a dense, emerald jungle, the air warm and alive with the crashing sound of the Sea, and tropical blooms. It felt like stepping into a slower, more intentional world. My mornings began with sunlight filtering through open-air walls, no glass needed-just a gentle breeze and the rhythm of nature. Casa Viva is the lush Caribbean side, where the jungle meets untouched beaches. I stayed for a week, and did not rent a car or take a taxi or tour. The days were simple but full, walking through the trails at the Lodge, and the beach all the way to Manzanillo, enjoying the deserted beach, and rhythm of the Sea. I spotted sloths draped lazily in trees, even one with a baby! Entertained by the howler monkeys no matter where I went, Parrots and Carlos even pointed out a Toucan for me. Everything around you is thoughtfully designed to blend in, not take over. You're not just visiting nature, you're part of it. At night, it's a different kind of magic. The sound of the Sea and the steady chorus of insects and frogs. A true paradise here isn't about luxury in the traditional sense. It's about connection-to nature, stillness, and honestly, to yourself. "

"Amazing tree top home positioned exactly where you want it to be. "

"Great place to stay on the Caribbean side! VERY nice owners who were super helpful. This place literally has a private beach!!! The house itself was so much fun and HUGE! Great if you have kids or even if you want a romantic getaway. Would definitely stay here again! "

"Thoroughly enjoyable stay thank you!"

"What a great location. We truly enjoyed our days here. Practically right on the beach and close to many local restaurants. "

"the property was beautiful and convenient to a great beach. selvin's restaurant at the beach is fantastic. awakened by a troop of howler monkeys right outside our window almost every morning. one issue. although, not a deal breaker. the road was a busier than we expected. traffic noise morning and evening as people leave and return home."

"Very beautiful home and property! Met all expectations. Howlers, spider monkeys, sloth, great green macaw, and toucans all visited in the 3 days we were there. Wonderful communication with our host."

"Excellent location for a sleepy beach vacation. Friendly caretakers on site. Friendly locals and a few cool little beach bars/restaurants within walking distance. We saw more wildlife in our week on the property than anywhere else nearby (sloths, howler/spider monkeys, toucans, aguitas, guans, iguanas, etc). A/C and hot water works perfectly. Hot/Cold water purifier on site. We had 8 people (4 adults/4 kids) at the house and it worked out well. It is not a modern high end home, but fits the bill for a beach bungalow with everything you need. New pool was amazing as well. Punta Uva is a super cool place. We heard a lot of negativity about the Carribean coast, but it exceeded expectations. One of the best beaches I've ever been on. If we ever come back to Costa Rica we will be back. "

"Ocean not visible but close. The entire area is filled with Marijuana smell the second you exit the house. This is a party beach, extremely loud, complete chaos on Saturday and Sunday. The A/C didn't cool the master bedroom, the king bed was very uncomfortable. My wife and I kicked the kids to the master and we slept in the other rooms for the second two nights, and the bed was perfect and cool, but then the kids were mad. "
