Tucan Hotel

W onderful Stay at Tucan Hotel – Highly Recommended!||We spent three amazing days at Tucan Hotel in Uvita and absolutely loved it. From the first contact until the moment we left, communication was excellent. The staff is friendly, attentive, and truly committed to making your stay enjoyable.||The hotel features a beautiful inner garden – a peaceful oasis where you can relax and unwind. Each morning, there’s a generous breakfast buffet with plenty of options, and you can also order a traditional Costa Rican breakfast, which we highly recommend for a local culinary experience.||We stayed in the converted camper, which the current owner used to travel all the way from Canada to Uvita – such a unique and charming accommodation! It’s fully equipped with everything you need and offers a one-of-a-kind experience that you won’t easily forget.||Host Pierre deserves a special mention. He is incredibly helpful, always available to assist – whether it’s booking tours, giving travel advice, or helping plan the next leg of your journey. Nothing is too much for him, and his local tips are super valuable.||In short: Tucan Hotel is a cozy, welcoming place with a personal touch, great breakfast, a lush garden, and unique lodging options. We highly recommend staying here!||⸻||Thanks for everything we loved it!

We’re a family with two boys and spent five nights at Tucan Hotel – and honestly, we wish we could have stayed much longer! The entire place is beautifully designed and decorated with so much love and attention to detail. This charm continues into the rooms – we had one cozy cabin with a small veranda and one double room. Both were spotless, beautifully painted, and even the bed linen matched the décor perfectly. Our boys absolutely loved the pool, but the hammocks and pool table were also big hits! Pierre, the warm and welcoming owner, went above and beyond to make our stay special. He gave us fantastic tips for exploring the area, and you can really feel how much passion he has for what he’s created and for connecting with his guests. In short – a little paradise for guests of all ages where everyone feels welcome! We truly hope to return to Costa Rica one day… and when we do, we’ll be coming straight back to the Tucan Hotel! ♥️ Nadine&family

Really nice and fun hotel. Huge community space with bookshelves and games. It is a bit loud before 10pm if you sleep early. Great location in Uvita, walking distance from waterfalls, cat cafe, food and the beach.

This Hostel/Hotel was easily one of the best I’ve ever stayed in. Upon arriving Pierre instantly explained everything clearly about the hotel as well as local activities. I didn’t feel like I had to once hesitate to ask for help, and Pierre answered all my questions with a smile. The free breakfast was absolutely fantastic and I was left feeling both satisfied and energised for my daily activities before leaving in the morning - you won’t be disappointed! The AC worked perfectly in the dorm and meant I had 3 very comfortable night sleep’s. Extra privacy was provided by the ‘capsule’ style of the dorms which I loved and found especially good for this part of the world by hostel standards. Everything was clean and the pool was very refreshing and a nice amenity given the intense humidity of being situated by the ocean. The only downside for me was that the cleaner lady was a little rude and upfront about putting my dishes away after I had only just finished cooking. I understand a communal kitchen needs to be kept clean for others but at 3pm in the afternoon (when I made my lunch) it would have at least been nice to enjoy my meal first before washing up as there were no other people around waiting to use the kitchen at this time. Nonetheless, for the price and my overall experience, I can’t recommend this place enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We arrived to Tucan Hotel without a Booking and they welcomed us with open arms and a REALLY fair price. The hotel is great! The common kitchen is well equipped if you want to cook something, there's some board games you can use and they provide great tips to ensure you make the most of your stay. We had an issue with the A/C on our first night and they immediately changed US rooms (giving us an upgrade). Breakfast is probably the best we had in Costa Rica! I had an injury when I arrived and they were kind to provide me with loads of ice and support to look for a nearby pharmacy. Location is great! You have a Supermarket, a Bank and plenty of restaurants within a short walk.

Best Hotel I stayed in Costa Rica! Really nice place with a very friendly and helpful owner and staff! Rooms are modern and clean as well as the common area! Pool is nice to hang out after a long tour day, even saw a Tucan in the trees next to the pool :)

Really loved staying here! Pierre is super nice, the breakfast was great with extensive buffet options, there is a pool and lovely large sitting space, a kitchen, parking spaces etc. Everything was very clean as well. There is both a dorm and private rooms

Probably my favorite hostel in Costa Rica. Good vibes. 20-30 minutes non pleasant walk to the ocean tail. There are nice waterfalls nearby, butterfly place, a bamboo forest, markets and many restaurants too. The bus station to San Jose is 5 minutes walk. Nice bar with cheap price on the site. I loved the pool, and watching the horses and poultry the other side of the fence. The owner is very helpful. The dorms are the best I've seen. Take the top level to have the fabulous view of the mountains in the morning. It feels like sleeping in a tree!
