Very nice room with cable tv, Netflix, and AC. Location was good, with supermarket, park entrance, and restaurants within 100 mts. Free parking and friendly staff. The towels were very old, with holes in it, yet very good for exfoliating :-) We didn’t have hot water for 3 days

Our stay at Cabinas Vive Uvita was fairly stressful. Although the location was close to the beach, there were a group of men who were on the street outside and harassing us anytime we walked by them. We were allowed to check in early which was nice, but we were only given one blanket for four people. After 6 or 7 pm, nobody is around to provide anything for you. When booking, we selected the option to pay at the property, but we had to ask several times if we could pay. I had to contact the owner directly in order to pay after we had already left. The best thing about this place is its proximity to the beach, but otherwise I wouldn’t recommend it.

Really liked Cabines Vive Uvita.
The hotel was a great mix of affordability, friendly service and comfortable. We stayed in the least expensive rooms which are older but good mattress, clean, AC and free WiFi. Hans and the staff are really nice.
Modern shower
Nice bathroom
Solid wood door that looks nice and secure.

No internet as stated. Owner not present, no soap, had to beg for towels. Cold showers...not worth the money.

Tres bon emplacement a quelques minutes a pied du parc national ballena. Personne a l accueil tres gentil et serviable . Proprete chambre bien dans l ensemble mais drap et serviette sales. Climatisation bruillante mais merite d exister. Logement de passage mais pas pour sejour.

Fueron muy serviciales porque un día antes le avisamos que íbamos y que a llegaríamos más tarde del horario de entrada que era sobre las 21. Llegamos sobre las 22:30 y nos recibió un hombre muy amable que nos indicó donde estaba la habitación. La habitación era súper simple pero para una noche estaba bien. La cama no fue lo más cómodo del mundo pero se pudo dormir. Y la habitación tenía aire acondicionado.

Lo que no me parecio es que no tenian agua caliente, y el agua de su cisterna era muy fria. No te daban suficiente jabón ni shampoo. De todo lo demas esta muy bien, buen servicio, limpio, funcional , un poco reducidas la habitaciones de tamaño pero funcionales

Hôtel très bien situé à 5 min du magnifique parc Marino Ballena et de ses superbes plages. Le personnel de l'hôtel est très attentionné, notre chambre était grande, neuve et super propre. Très bien équipée. Nous avons adoré notre séjour et nous recommandons la chambre triple.

The location is perfect. Very close to Marina Ballena Park and the beach. There is a restaurant associated with the hotel that has good food reasonably priced. I needed a fully accessible room which turned out to be perfect. The room had a fridge, microwave, coffee maker and the bathroom was spacious. Only complaint is that there is no hot water and only a very small soap is provided.

Stanze molto economiche, ma con aria condizionata, utili per chi ha problemi di budget. E' disponibile un frigorifero e una cucina in un'area comune aperta attrezzata in modo rudimentale. La doccia è solo fredda e non ha il soffione, ma solo un sacchetto di plastica per spezzare il getto. Il gestore è cordiale, ma poco affidabile. Avrebbe dovuto prenotarmi un tour di whale watching, ma poi ho dovuto arrangiarmi, ha preso in carica la biancheria da lavare per poi dirmi ore dopo che la lavatrice era rotta, per cuoi ho dovuto arrangiarsi di nuovo. Consigliabile ai viaggiatori più giovani e a chi non ha alcuna pretesa
