Cascada Verde

This hostel offers the real Uvita experience, as it's right in the middle of the jungle. We saw all kinds of animals, as well as monkeys crossing the trees right next to the hostel's balcony (the place to do your daily yoga session). The kitchen is very spacious, with everything you need to cook your meals for the day. The staff were very kind, welcoming and understanding with us even though the place was full. We were also within walking distance of the magnificent Uvita waterfalls for a refreshing dip, where you can also go down a very accessible slide. We can't wait to go back!

2 stars instead of none, for the owner having an open attitude towards us, then to be transparent, I have never felt so indirectly discriminated. There are signs prohibiting you from doing so many things, youll feel concerned if youll recieve a fee for coughing too loud. The woman in the reception wearing dread locks, listening to the music (reggae) that obviously promotes what she strictly tells people to not bring into the hostel is also not just confusion and hypocritical, it is dangerous to the spirits she is inviting into her life. It is more so important for the nextcomers to know that this place is a walking karma maze, that reflects every money move that has been covered up as "being of service" in the past, all because they chose to attend more to festival hippies than to locals and true visitors (not just tourists and "yogis"). We did not feel safe here, but judged and tricked into prices then to have them changed and delivered with unclear motivation. This is not a place fit to be a hostel. It does not have a clear intention as to what they are passionate about serving. I suggest you take the reviews from the past into consideration and know that to give you an honest review to your face, you have to be available with compassion and empathy, so it does not turn into an argument. Please consider taking a time out to reflect on what it means to Serve others and How you offer your fellow brothers and sisters a home.

Unique place to stay. In the middle of the jungle, yet not far to the city centre. We were shown all available rooms to choose from (which might be an off-season perk but shows how invested the staff is).

Absolutely love this place!! We extended our stay because of how great it is. Lovely, comfortable and clean rooms. A large communal space to eat, relax and a well furnished kitchen for cooking. Expect to see Capuchin monkeys, howler monkeys, hummingbirds and more nature casually around the hotel. You can see the stunning views from a space to relax attached.

Good, simple hotel in the middle of the jungle. With open kitchen and nice terrace. Unfortunately theere are signs with prohibitions and orders everywhere... too insistent for a place where people spend their holidays.

Great view from the terrace and close to the waterfalls. A lot of info for guests about the area and things to do around. Overall it was a nice short stay but some things in the dorm room need better maintenance.

A raw jungle experience in Uvita with a lovely kitchen, cozy bed, and gorgeous upstairs yoga Shala with an unbeatable view. Fresh coffee all day long, access to coffee grinds and coffee socks to make it the costa rican way… this is a true hidden gem in the jungle The stay is not luxurious by any means but you are truly connected to nature, no AC, bug nets, light outs early so you can enjoy the true sound of the Costa Rican jungle at night and wake to the canopies filled with bird songs.

An amazing place. Relaxing. Such a great view! The included breakfasts were OK! However, our room in the basement smelled damp and bad. But the other rooms (at the first floor) seemed to be much better. At the end, we really liked our stay there. Using the shared kitchen was pleasing.
