Guest Reviews

• Joy (9/5): Geweldig verblijf gehad - Het personeel is ontzettend vriendelijk, het eten is uitstekend. Prachtig uitzicht Niks op aan te merken. Alleen is er in Uvita zelf weinig te doen en op veel plekken geen verbinding
• Alex (10/5): 100% go stay here - This hotel is gorgeous! The rooms are huge with nice furniture, baths, in and outdoor showers and comfy beds. The infinity pool is so nice and the food is delicious too. The staff were very friendly and went above and beyond to help us with a flat tyre. I couldn’t have asked for anymore. Nothing
• Agustin (8/5): -
• Greg (10/5): -
• Valentin (10/5): -
• Karin (10/5): An exceptional place - I will definitely return - Everything was perfect—I felt like I was in paradise. You can even watch toucans from the pool. It’s a very private and peaceful place. Everything was thoughtfully designed with great care and taste. The breakfast was excellent, and the staff were very kind in a genuine, not fake way. Thank you. Sometimes you could hear a plane overhead, which was a bit annoying. Regarding the dinner price, I didn’t like that the menu didn’t mention that taxes and service were not included. I’m fine with the price itself, but I value transparency, so that felt a bit strange.
• Jessica (10/5): - La chambre, la vue incroyable, la qualité du mobilier, la deco, la piscine, le personnel. Tout.
• Dominic (10/5): Großartig und das nächste Mal bleiben wir länger. - Das Frühstück war sensationell und das Abendessen auch. Ich hätte stundenlang in der Dusche stehen und in die Tierwelt beobachten können! Wäre mir selbst bei langem überlegen nichts eingefallen
• Dick (9/5): -
• Pooja (10/5): Dreamy Vacation - We stayed here for our honeymoon. I loved the way they designed each villa. It felt very modern, private and luxurious. We were truly surrounded by nature. We woke up to the sound of tropical birds. Saw toucans and parrots from our balcony each day. The staff was very warm and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Gerald at the front desk did an exceptional job making us feel welcome and went above and beyond for us all week! The infinity pool overlooking the rainforest was jaw dropping. Loved every minute at Tiki Villas.
• Andrea (8/5): Schöne Lage & sehr gutes Essen. - Schöne Lage und sehr gutes Essen. Die Zimmer sind sehr schlicht und eher ungemütlich eingerichtet.
• Diego (10/5): Experiencia increíble - Las villas son increíbles, súper nuevas, cómodas, bonitas y limpias. El restaurante y la zona de la piscina súper acogedora y cómoda. Nos recibieron con un batido de frutas y una toalla para refrescarnos. Nos tuvieron un detalle súper bonito por nuestro aniversario en la habitación y la comida y el personal del restaurante increíbles. La única pega que se le podría poner es que se escuchan a veces demasiados ruidos de algún camión que pasa por la carretera pero nada más. Todo lo demás perfecto
• emily (10/5): A lap of luxury - Breakfast is amazing, everything is beautiful and clean, quiet, great staff, bed is very comfortable. A true luxury resort! It is close to the town so easy to access the beach and shops.
• Luisa (9/5): Perfect - Everything, namely the breakfast, the environment, the room with an amazing view, all the confort The access road could be better and would be wonderful if you have direct access to the beach
• Carmen (8/5): A lovely stay, though final refurbishment seems incomplete, would still come back - The hotel has recently been refurbished so it was very clean and well presented, the pool was lovely and the setting and planting around the lodges is great. Breakfast was very nice and the staff very polite and helpful. Food at dinner was very good (but not plentiful) but did not change much while we were there so we ventured out, not eating meat limited us and the catering for vegetarians was not great, I was offered a simple pasta dish option that was not very inspiring, my partner ate fish and that was very good. Restaurant and bar area are really lovely. I really enjoyed using the pool and it was a very peaceful place to stay. Final details of the renovations seem ongoing, plants still to go into lots of empty pots, decorative details to do etc. Privacy around outdoor baths and showers in the lodges is urgently needed, as is lighting on the main path from the dusty gravel car parking area to the main buildings. I imagine new signage is on its way also etc., but otherwise it really is a very nice place to relax at; once completely finished I'm sure it will be great. When we booked AI images must have been used as it has all been updated on booking.com and the lodges inside looked different and a little plain, again maybe decorative details are coming. What has been done is high quality. Re food there was barely any choice for vegetarians and no all day/lighter bites menu which would have been nice, something perhaps for the hotel to consider.
• REGIS (10/5): Luxe sauvage - La vue. La chambre tout est parfait 👍 Rien
• Wendy (10/5): - El trato del personal, me sentí súper consentida
• Jeffrey A (10/5): Super! - This place is great!. Rooms are beautiful. The view is exceptional. The food in the restaurant is fantastic. The staff was very friendly.
• Julio (10/5): Increíbles vistas y estancia - Lugar maravillosos, alojamiento de lujo, fantásticas cenas y estupendo trato personal.
• Ronald (9/5): A terrific rainforest experience with a tasteful villas and beautiful view - Tiki Villas is a very tasteful and comfortable resort hotel. What immediately stands out when entering is the tranquility it exudes and the endless view. While lying in a lovely pool, you look out onto a beautiful garden where all kinds of special birds land. The Tiki Villas are very modern and tastefully decorated. There is a fantastic outdoor shower so you can shower under the starry sky in the middle of nature. From the balcony, you look out at the rainforest and the Pacific Ocean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We wished we could have stayed here longer, but we will definitely come back again. Nothing. The food was quite expensive. Ofcourse that’s in the whole country but on the menu card the prices were presented without al the taxes and other costs that were added finally on the bill.
• Sandy (10/5): -
• Lea (10/5): - Sehr schöne Unterkunft, tolle Ausstattung & schöne, geräumige Zimmer, freundliches Personal, toller Ausblick & ausgezeichnete Küche! Das Frühstück war köstlich und sehr liebevoll zubereitet Die Preise im Restaurant waren sehr gehoben, vorallem für die Getränke. Die Küche und Auswahl war zwar ausgezeichnet, dennoch bevorzugten wir es dann im Ort Abendzuessen.
• Jennifer (5/5): It is a nice hotel with a beautiful view in the jungle but doesn’t meet the expectations of the price - Beautiful property with a view and gorgeous sounds of nature The property didn’t seem finished. It lacked furnishings, fixtures, no art blank walls. Empty flower pots everywhere. No ceiling fans in the dining room just a loud industrial fan. There’s an expectation at that price point and it wasn’t met. If it was half that price I wouldn’t be writing this. Also, I never give businesses negative reviews but I just want to be honest
• léa (10/5): Super séjour au Tiki. Pura vida - Endroit très paisible et très joli. Les chambres sont grandes, épurées avec une bonne douche et une baignoire confortable. Le restaurant est très bon (petit dej, dej ou dîner). La piscine a vue sur mer, elle est longue et un peu étroite mais peu fréquentée. C’est très agréable. Nous avons aussi réservé un massage qui se fait directement dans la chambre et les masseuses sont incroyables. C’est un sans faute pour nous :)
• viollin (8/5): - Les villas magnifiques et spacieuses
• tanya (9/5): Great experience and would come back - Atmosphere, views, tranquillity, cleanliness, very nice staff
• Alvaro (9/5): Toda la excelencia en un solo lugar !!! - Personal atento, comprometido y responsable. Su manager, Marvin, en todos los detalles. Habitaciones confortables y en acuerdo a imágenes dispuestas. Vistas inmejorables. Ropa blanca de excelente calidad. Restaurante de excelencia comandado por el chef Delvi Mendoza. Sin comentarios
• Anna (9/5): un endroit magnifique - L'accueil de toute l'équpe était vraiment chaleureux, nous étions au petis soins. Une mention particulière pour le chef qui concocte des plats délicieux! le meilleur fondant au chocolat!! La vue des villas est magnifique Rien
• Anastasia (10/5): The place is stunning, emerged in nature, with good energy. - The location in wonderful The property needs a little renovation
• Elizabeth (10/5): relaxing rainforest retreat - Lovely quiet, relaxing place to use as a home base for Uvita & Playa Hermosa area. The breakfast was lovely, and the rooms were spacious and comfortable (huge fan of the in-room espresso machine). We saw capuchin monkeys from our window!
• Martijn (10/5): Exceptional -
• Carter (7/5): Good -
• Diogo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Maria (9/5): Superb - It was the highlight of our trip! We were pretty much the only clients and everything was perfect and so beautiful.
• Joanna (10/5): Little spot of paradise! - Friendly, helpful staff. Clean, generous sized rooms. Excellent facilities. Nothing
• Chris'88 (7/5): Worth to stay - amazing view to jungle and ocean, comfortable room with mini kitchenette, outdoor shower mini fridge in the room was super loud when working
• Linda (10/5): Exceptional - Such a relaxing stay! Lodges are spacious with floor to ceiling windows , kitchen and an extra outside shower. Restaurant is intimate - just 8 tables, fabulous fresh fish and vegetables. A romantic place. Surprised how much traffic noise makes it up this high, but we slept very well.
• Stephanie (8/5): Very good -
• Romir (9/5): Lovely villas among nature - Beautiful resort consisting of 9 villas and restaurant with pool built on a hillside above the ocean that makes you feel like you're living in the treetops in the rainforest - lots of birds all around including toucans and other colourful species, iguanas etc. Ocean view with lovely sunsets from each villa a from the pool. Villas are spacious, with wide beds and big bathroom including outside shower. Very good breakfast and also dinners at restaurant were really tasty. Friendly staff. You can walk to the beach (Playa Hermosa). The noise from the main road was unexpected and spoils a bit the stays, especially trucks disturb sleep all night. Of course, the accomodation cannot do anything about this, but I have to mention it.
• Sarah (10/5): Amazing views! - Amazing views. We saw white faced capuchin monkeys and all sorts of birds (including hummingbirds and tucans) from our very clean and comfortable room. Very kind and helpful staff. They were even patient with my Spanish :-) The restaurant had good food. The best Gallo Pinto we had during our trip so far. We can definitely recommend the stay! The price being a little more than $300/night seemed too high. Otherwise we can’t say anything negative.
• Vali (9/5): Superb -
• Anonymous (7/5): Overall it’s not a bad place to stay. - Property is located near downtown uvita. Dario and the rest of the team were excellent, they were very helpful and professional. Beautiful views from the villas. Property grounds have nice landscaping throughout. Villas are very dated , cracks on the roof and in need of maintenance. We were told they are closing on oct 1st to make adjustments and maintenance.
• Anthony (10/5): Perfecto - Room and view are wonderful. Staff is kind, the restaurant, the swimming pool, the breakfast… everything perfect.
• Sally (7/5): Beautiful resort but shame about road noise - Stunning location with sea view from room and restaurant. Generously sized room with small kitchen. Insect screens on all doors and windows Road noise. Unfortunately even though the hotel is 400m above the road it is very busy with a lot of heavy goods vehicles and can be heard inside room even with doors closed.
• Laura (10/5): place to relax and beautiful - the pool, the view from the room towards the mountains and the beach and the spectacular food
• Brigitte (10/5): Amazing view - Amazing views and food, the staff was really helpful and kind. Ask for the top rooms there is the best view. The room is realy nice, beds really confortable. And we have seen a couple of Tucans near the pool You need a car to move from the hotel to the beach, and you will need a 4WD. The parking and the room access is not near, handicaps maybe will need help
• Vickers (10/5): A dream to be able to stay in the middle of the rainforest. - Quiet. Peaceful. Beautiful to see and hear the macaws, iguana, etc. N/A
• Cengiz (10/5): Exceptional - The infinity pool and the view that accompanies it is absolutely fantastic. The staff were extremely nice and very helpful, supported us with whatever we needed, rooms were exceptional and good drinks at the bar Not much to complain about
• Derek (9/5): Superb -
• Kate (10/5): Fabulous stay would likely recommend it. - The staff were so friendly and went above and beyond to help. The facilities were great and have everything covered from umbrellas to mosquito tablets and very comfy beds. Pool has a fabulous view. Nothing
• Nadia (8/5): Very good - Cozy small boutique hotel. Cocktails and food were very good. Pool was in the process of cleaning so we couldn’t use it unfortunately
• Michelle (9/5): Superb -
• Patrick (9/5): Superb - Beautiful place in the middle of the nature nesr Uvita. Lot of birds and other animals. Staff is really kind and professional. Nice restaurant, fantastic view and pool. I recommand it if you stay in Uvita and are travelling by car.
• Dr (8/5): Very good - Amazing view from the bungalows, and also from the restaurant, and pool. Quiet, nice place with birds around, between Uvita and Dominical ( on half way about), really nice and friendly staff. Very big portions of good cocktails and nice foods! :) The bathroom needs a little updating , because you don't feel that clean it.
• Sherika (10/5): Hidden Gem within the Rainforest - I would recommend this property not only because of the amazing location and its beauty, but the exceptional customer service. Keven ( guest services manager) is charismatic, helpful, professional and funny as hell. He will make your stay memorable. I enjoyed the breathtaking views in the morning, delicious breakfast. Most importantly, the outdoor shower my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed :) Whenever we come back to the pacific side, we will be stopping by..
• Sandra (10/5): Amazing, Stunning! - What can we say?! it’s amazing! my partner was blown away with the setting! Nothing
• Maria (5/5): Passable - nice views and close to main road the room was a little dated , the door had cracks that let the heat in.
• Sarah (10/5): We will be back, simply an amazing experience. - The location and hotel are fantastic The villa was really well appointed, with a large balcony & outdoor shower. Lovely open dining room, great food option& superb breakfast, whilst watching the Toucans & other wildlife. Keven and his team were welcoming and so helpful. We had top notch massage at the spa & would wholly recommend this. We really can’t fault anything at Tiki
• Fatma (3/5): Poor -
• Linda (8/5): beautiful rooms set in hill above beach - only 9 rooms yet had a restaurant and bar. friendly staff
• Samuel (9/5): Superb -
• Crislene (9/5): Superb - spacious villa with great views, dellicius breakfast, friendly staff.
• Robert (8/5): Very good -
• Michele (10/5): Exceptional - Staying at Tiki Villas was an exceptional experience. The staff was so friendly and helpful. They thought of everything. Beautiful view, delicious food, spacious and comfortable room and animal/bird sightings right in front of our villa! I will definitely go back! They thought of everything. Wouldn’t change a thing.
• Tim (9/5): The villas have a fantastic view and you are well looked after. - The villas are located on the hill side overlooking the sea and surrounded by rain forest. The view from our villa’s deck was fantastic. The hotel has an infinity pool, with the same unbelievable view; having a cold beer as you cool off in the pool, was definitely a daily highlight. The restaurant offered a range of meals and all the staff were friendly and helpful. The villas were located separately and you were not overlooked. Due to the steepest of the approach road, suggest 4x4 car…. We had a great time here.
• Gary (10/5): Exceptional -
• David (7/5): Nice relaxation away from the crowd - nice location and very friendly staff. the rooms are not like on the pictures, they are a lillte old. but with a nice view and it was clean.
• Traci (10/5): AMAZING EXPERIENCE - Kevin was absolutely amazing. he went out of his way to make us comfortable. we now live in Costa Rica and will bring all our friends back here everything was perfect
• Adham (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing Views and Amazing Swimming Pool.
• Adham (10/5): Exceptional - Diego Is the best
• Stanley (7/5): Had the place to ourselves! - The hotel staff were exceptional. The breakfast was very good and we tried everything on our 4 day stay. The lounge area was relaxing and the music was too! We watched the Howlers and the toucans from our balcony every day. Great very of them water and close enough to hear the surf. And Playa Hermosa had some serious surf! The first night we had dinner there but not again. It was mediocre and over $100 for the two of us. The stone around the pool is moldy and the chairs were reclining lawn chairs in bad shape and VERY uncomfortable and nearly impossible with my bad back to get out of. There are so many negatives to the comfort of the rooms I will leave it to say this place needs a makeover. Mattresses were hard as stone and the linens as well as towels were dingy and smelled very old and musty. For a boutique hotel of this ranking I would expect more than lawn furniture on the balconies also. The closet is bigger than the bathroom, not necessary, make the bathrooms bigger. All in all it was terrible, but I wouldn’t pay more than $70 per night.
• Raphaelhollenstein (10/5): Pura Vida - Everything aligned together, it was very comfortable and easy. Amazing helpful and friendly stuff!
• Leila (10/5): Relaxing, tranquil spot in the middle of the jungle. - the pool and the view. also the staff! we loved the monkeys! the cost - should be all inclusive for the price.
• Dienke (8/5): Very good - very friendly and flexible staff Nice location
