Top Playa Ballena Hotel Reviews
Canavida Villas & Resort
10/10 Excellent
"What an incredible place to stay! The property was beautiful and the house had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The host was wonderful and even met as at the front of the property to take us to our location. He answered all our questions and gave us a tour. The view was amazing and the pool was right there! I would highly recommend it to others and will definitely stay there again!"

Cristal Ballena Boutique Hotel & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for 5 nights at the hotel. The hotel has the most beautiful view of the ocean. The restaurant was great for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The swimming pool was beautiful. We saw all kinds of birds and animals in the ground of the hotel. Highly recommend for anyone staying around the Uvita area with a car."

Waves as Your Companion: Beachfront Elegance
10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful house in an amazing location! We rented a small Kia SUV and had no problem getting to the house. This location is just a few minutes walk through the jungle to beautiful beaches, small caves and cliffs above you. One thing to note is that there are chickens and a rooster wandering around the grounds and the rooster started crowing repeatedly starting at 4:00 am every day."
Beach Front Home in Ballena Marine Natl Park
10/10 Excellent
"Our family had such a wonderful time at this great house. A beautiful and comfortable accommodation with plenty of room for our 6 adults and 3 kids. The pool and access to the beaches was a highlight. Everything we could need in the kitchen and the house was sparkling clean. Natalia greeted us on arrival, gave us many helpful suggestions and responded quickly to any questions we had. We would highly recommend this special place."
Luxury retreat with panoramic ocean view, private infinity pool, concierge
10/10 Excellent
"The photos online do not do this view justice. The house was perfect for our family of 6 and the view was unbeatable. Tom was amazing and met us in town to show us the way our first day there which was super helpful. We are already planning our trip back!"
Amazing Whitewater View Of The Ballena Marine Preserve Islands
10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing week staying here in Costa Rica! The location was ideal, making it easy to visit both Manuel Antonio and Corcovado National Parks.Mark was an exceptional host, checking in regularly to make sure everything was going well and offering great recommendations for things to do in the area. We booked two excursions with his recommended guide, David, and both were incredible experiences.The Uvita farmers market was a fantastic place to stock up on fresh local produce, and Mark's restaurant recommendations were spot on, especially Citrus, which was outstanding.Two people in our group had health concerns, so having air conditioning in the bedrooms made a huge difference in our comfort. The infinity pool was another highlight and the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring.We would highly recommend staying here and would absolutely love to return for another visit!"
La Cusinga Lodge
8/10 Good
"The view was amazing and staff were very friendly. I did not realize that the rooms did not have A/C, so things were hot the first night (reception closed at 8:00), but they were able to get me another fan the second night l, which made things better. Overall, we really enjoyed the stay which included access to a local swimming hole which was very refreshing. The restaurant was the most expensive meal we had in Costa Rica and to be honest, the food was not bad, but not good. Definitely not worth the money spent. We found food more reasonably priced and better tasting outside the resort. I would strongly recommend this site if you want great views, friendly staff, the feeling of being alone, and don’t mind no AC."
