The location is great, close to a beautiful beach that is always not so crowded, so it’s a perfect “private beach”. The facilities are beautiful, the pool is great, the breakfast is incredibly, and the staff is super friendly.

Really comfortable and private hotel for a great price in Puerto Viejo. We loved the size and layout of the room, the patio area and the pool was a nice bonus. It was close to everything but far enough that there was no traffic noise or music from the local clubs. Filtered water and coffee offered daily was great and the staff were friendly and helpful.

This place is truly a haven for relaxation and nature lovers. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay exceptional, always friendly and attentive to every need. The beach being so close was a wonderful bonus. Walking along the shore, listening to the soothing waves, was the perfect way to unwind. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to escape and recharge.

Excellent service. Cannot beat the pool and the nice rooms with A/C during the hot days. They have bikes to rent, as well as a tuk tuk. WiFi is great with TV in every quarters to watch Netflix etc. Tim is an excellent host and his staff is extremely accommodating. A true gem. We even came to hang out with friends when staying elsewhere because the vibe is Pura Vida!

The staff were incredibly friendly, and Andrea was always available to help, even offering great suggestions for tours and activities. The breakfast was also excellent, and the room felt peaceful and romantic, perfect for a few days of relaxation. We loved being so immersed in nature, with the beautiful combination of jungle and beach.

Cosy, and a bit sleepy, town with raggae vibes, a nice beach and a beautiful national park. Alhough it's a very small town it has some nice restaurants and a few shops. You can swim at the beach and go for a hike in the national park.

Our hotel, Arrecife Punta Uva, was right on the beach and very conveniently close to a restaurant. There were plenty of seating areas and hammocks provided, which made it easy to relax. One of the highlights was a beautiful viewpoint on a cliff about a 10-minute walk away—definitely worth the short hike. The food at the restaurant was also quite good.

We loved our beach cabin stay in Manzanillo!

We loved our beach cabin stay in Manzanillo! We ate meals on the front porch surrounded by the beautiful garden, listening to the rolling waves of the ocean. The beach is just across the street, and the nature reserve is a five minute walk away at the end of the street. There is also a good Caribbean restaurant at the other end of the street, also just a five minute walk from the cabin. Our host was very friendly and attentive. It’s a quiet, authentic beach town, and much less touristy than Puerto Viejo. We plan to stay there again.

Picture perfect beach with a restaurant that hosted live music in the evenings. It was beautiful with a nice atmosphere. However parking was very crowded with the only free parking be on a narrow and very busy road.

Manzanillo is lovely.

Manzanillo is lovely. The reef is regenerating so snorkelling good we did a boat trip to go snorkelling more and I saw a blue spotted eagle ray! Absolutely the best snorkelling in the area particularly near the entrance of the National Park. We had a kayak into the jungle which was lovely. We did a night hike which was quite an experience!. Manzanillo is quiet at night. The people are great! We rented bikes from Chile Verde where we stayed and cycled to the Ava project preserving Great Green Macaws. We also culex to Punt Uva. We also walked there on the beach. Manzanillo is great! We are at maxis and another cafe at the end of the road. We also had dinner at Colores with live music. Great food and service.

Punta Uva Beach in Costa Rica is a true gem.

Punta Uva Beach in Costa Rica is a true gem. This stunning beach offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and tranquility. The crystal-clear turquoise waters and pristine white sand create a breathtaking setting. Definitely, a place I would come back to.
