HOTEL MARINO BALLENA

.

.

The service is THE best. The most warm and friendly receptionist, Kattia, ever. She helped us to book a tour in advance, organised our car take over from the rental company and also connected us with a great taxi driver. She did these out of kindness because it was not part of her job. She is the best! The room is very good for friends (two big comfortable beds).

it can be a bit noisy because of the street and thin walls but our room (number 7) was the best of the rooms regarding the quiet.

Friendly staff and nice hotel & pool area. Breakfast included in two nearby restaurants

About a 30 minute walk from the beach however this seemed to be the same with most places in uvita.

Very friendly staff and good communication prior to our arrival via WhatsApp - we were travelling by bus and weren't sure of our arrival time. Lovely spacious room with 2 comfortable beds. Pool right outside room. Very close to a great restaurant, La Fogata, and others nearby too. And about 450 m from the bus station. Walking distance to the national park and whale's tail formation ( but best to go at low tide to fully appreciate it!)

It was no problem to walk to the breakfast restaurants but there is quite a busy main road to cross to one and the other entails walking beside the main road across a bridge and past the bus station. Similar good breakfasts at both! Also it would have been nice to have a few more surfaces or hooks to arrange things in the room especially for wet towels, etc. However, we have already recommended this hotel to another couple heading in that direction!

Nicely presented, clean and super comfortable beds and pillows. The pool is great for a cooling dip and with some funky lights in the evening. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Not much space in the room for general moving about but it wasn't too much of an issue. The hot water also didn't seem to last long so a couple of showers were a bit tepid.

Super friendly staff, clean and comfortable room.

Good location, but walking around the area isn't very comfortable, to get anywhere you need to have a car, even just crossing the street for breakfast! I wish Bitcoin payments were an option, too.

The location is awesome, super close to the main highwat and also to the beach and main attractions and resteurants in Uvita. the staff at the hotel are super extra and really friendly. specially Katia, she welcomed us and was always looking to see if everything was good. I also liked the cleanliness of everything and the community terrace they have.

The breakfast at the restaurant was ok but it could be better.
