This hotel was nice and quiet. We appreciated the Gastro area of dining options that were located next door to the hotel. However, at night there is loud, live music coming from the gastro area. Our room was very small but clean. The staff was very friendly and the property was very clean.

I recently stayed at the Hotel Uvita Forest for two nights and had a comfortable stay. The accommodation is very modern, featuring a well-equipped kitchenette, great air conditioning and a comfy bed. There is a pool area that is shared between the rooms and the villas, with sun loungers and areas to sit around it. Hotel Uvita Forest is in quite a vibrant area, so it can be quite noisy until around 10 pm. We ate in some local restaurants, including the Uvita Gastro Park which is right next door, and it had a great vibe with live music. Overall, it was a great stay, and if you’re looking for somewhere to stay in Uvita, it’s a great choice.

This seems to be a brand new hotel with potential but has a ways to go. Weak WiFi, no breakfast, you have to ask to have the gate open, we couldn’t get in or out without having the gate unlocked, so I guess you could say it’s quite safe. But it felt odd not to be able to come and go without finding the guy to unlock the gate (he lives in his room at the hotel). It’s immediately next door to a very loud bar with very loud music. Positives: very clean room, nice small pool, very good coffee in the room. The front desk guy was very sweet. We were literally the only guests there that night. It was overpriced.
