Hotel Bahia Azul

Stayed here for 10 days and loved it.

muy cerca de las 2 entradas al parque Nacional Bahia Ballena

No estuvo tan mal, algunas cosas que deben mejorar y si las mejoras ojalá las publiquen:
1. Habitación 6 cae una gotera encima de una cama.
2. Habitación 9 tenía olor a perro, quizá algún cliente metió un perro sin autorización de la administración.
3. Alimentación: Al ser las 3:00pm cuando uno como cliente acostumbra a beber café a esa hora, llegamos al restaurante a pedir que nos vendan café y nos dicen que a esa hora no se prepara café en el restaurante.
La justificación fue muy absurda, la muchacha encargada del restaurante dijo que a esa hora no se prepara café para no enredar al personal de cocina, por el asunto de los tiempos de comida.
A ver: En la mañana se sirven desayunos, obviamente con café, luego al medio día se sirven almuerzos los cuales pueden o no incluir el servicio de café, ¿Por qué en la tarde de 3:00pm en adelante no se permite la preparación de café para los clientes?
Tuvimos que ir a los restaurantes vecinos, uno algo cerca del hotel y otro muy alejado del hotel para comprar un bendito vaso de café negro.
Esa acción fue muy indignante, primero porque uno pide que le vendan café no que se lo regalen y segundo porque uno paga lo que le cobren, sin pedir descuento.
Lo peor del caso es que el rótulo que está a un lado de la carretera dice: CAFETERÍA.
Ojalá eso no vuelva a suceder con la clientela.

If in the area, definitely stop and eat at the restaurant at Hotel Bahia Azul. The food is the best in all of Uvita. There is also a very nice selection of cocktails. The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The portions are large. The staff is patient and happy to answer any questions. Tania, the owner, is outgoing and very welcoming. Your first stop won’t be your last!

Basic room, no frills. The room has a kitchen; but no stove, no fridge, no pots, no dishes, no cutlery.

Clean room.

Breakfast is included and is okay. Service could be better. The one drink rule seems silly: If one has orange juice, one cannot have coffee.

fantastic,

This hotel is beyond awful. We were booked here with Gadventures. Upon entering our room, we found it had not been cleaned. Razor, mirror and toothpaste in bathroom, dirty bedding and floors. I told the front desk clerk. She looked at me skeptically. Didn't apologize or offer to do anything about it. I had to ask for the room to be cleaned or a different room. She said to get our stuff, come back and she would assign us a different room. She said she checked and the new room had been cleaned. Ugh. That room was also filthy. Dirty sheets and bedding and floors. The coffee pot had mold growing in it. Stay far away from this hotel.

Stained sheets, uncleaned rooms and bathrooms (when I complained our bathroom was dirty, the owner replied "Oh yes, that's the ants, they do that every day, somebody will clean your room tomorrow morning." No apology, and I had to wait for a full day for the ant debris to be cleared away. And in COVID too! Makes Super 8s look like the Ritz. Avoid it like the plague (or else you may catch it here)! Oh and in case they accuse this review of being a fake (as they have done on the previous ones, I've included a photo of the front of the "hotel".

The hotel.staff was wonderful: food was great, well prepared. The proprietor apologized from r the run down conditions since COVID had affected tourism, but neither the internet nor THE TV stations worked in the room for the first night. The bed was very uncomfortable.

The chef, his wife and child ldren we're welcoming, helpful and pleasant.

Too bad. The city is lovely and the whale watching was fantastic!!

Great food. Came here to eat after a canyoning trip. Best ceviche I’ve ever had!!! Service was fantastic! Very nice people and great conversation! Homemade ice cream to finish the meal was amazing! We will definitely be back next time in Uvita.

Lo unico que nos desagrado fue los tiempos de espera para que sirvieran el almuerzo, 45 minutos, en lo demas no tuvimos problemas

They said reservations wasnt paid but i have proof and wouldnt let my driver check in he slept in his car!!
Owner said talk you for refund

Énormément déçu par cet hôtel se disant 3 étoiles.
C'était le 8ème hôtel de notre séjour et c'était la première fois que nous n'étions pas accueilli avec le sourire.
La propriétaire nous donne une chambre en face de la cuisine (alors que l'établissement était presque vide) avec une douche qui fuyait faisant beaucoup de bruit.
Finalement elle nous donne une autre chambre sale, sable sur le couvre lit et douche qui venait d'être utilisée..
Une piscine qui ne donnait pas envie de se baigner et un petit déjeuner passable...
Bref 130 euro la nuit pour tout juste un motel selon moi ça fait cher.
Franchement à éviter

Logement très basique avec le strict minimum, à mon sens, ce n’est pas vraiment un hôtel 3* mais presque une auberge avec chambres doubles et salles de bain privatives.
A notre arrivée on nous fournit les télécommandes ainsi que les linges à la réception. De plus pendant notre séjour de deux nuits, malgré les plusieurs demandes, nous n’avons pas eu d’eau chaude ! Le côté positif : c’est au calme, WIFI qui va bien quand il fonctionne, parking gratuit et à 5 minutes du club de plongée si comme nous, vous venez pour plonger et partir tôt le matin.

Food was delicious, specially the homemade ice cream, fish was very fresh and the service was truly, as well. 100% recommended for those who visit Uvita and want to try good local food! I would come back

We didnt stay at the hotel but stopped for lunch - and we were glad we did. A wonderful tuna tatare and fish ceviche. Really great food and a affordable price. Homemade from scratch so you had to wait a while but is was worth it👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great location close to Costa Rica Dive & Surf, friendly staff and the hotel's owner is always on property. Affordable rates.

The lady that checked us in was very nice and the room was clean and spacious. The rooms need to be updated as the paint was worn throughout and the bathroom sink did not work well. OK for an overnight but would not want to stay much longer.

El lugar permite llevar mascotas por lo que hace que el paseo en familia sea más agradable. Los que trabajan son muy amables sin embargo tienen muy poco personal en algunos momentos.

It was already dark and rained when we were looking for a room on our way southward, so we did not look further, but we should have! The good things first: A/C, WIFI and TV worked, food in the restaurant was good. The room was an extremely basic, even though spacious, mouldy smelling room, containing 3 beds, one (!) Lightbulb to lighten the whole room, 1 towel per person. No table or chair.
The breakfast was the skimpiest of our 3 weeks in Costa Rica, (although this was not the cheapest room.)
We survived it, but certainly don't recommend it.
