Guest Reviews

• Michaela (8/5): Es wirkt besser als es tatsächlich ist - Der Pool war sehr schön, gute Lage, haben uns sehr sicher gefühlt. Es war alles sehr modern. Die Waschmaschine und der Trockner waren super praktisch. Wenn man genauer geschaut hat war überall in den Ecken dreck. Nicht super schlimm aber halt auch nicht sauber. Die Küche ist für richtiges kochen nicht geeignet. Es fehlen essentielle Dinge und vor allem Platz. Zum Frühstück vorbereiten reicht es aus. Das Licht in der Küche hat nicht funktioniert, das Tor zur Einfahrt musste von Hand aufgeschoben werden (an sich nicht schlimm aber die Info wäre gut gewesen), die Haustür ging super schwer zu schieben. Generell war es super laut am Abend (da können die Besitzer nichts dafür, ist aber trotzdem so). Die Handtücher werden selbst bei einem Aufenthalt von 5 Tagen nicht gewechselt und es wird nicht geputzt. Es gibt auch keinen Besen öder Ähnliches um selbst mal kurz zu putzen. Alles in allem okay, kann man machen wir würden es nicht nochmal buchen.
• Lada (10/5): - Skvělá lokalita, naprosto dostačující vybavení domu, velký čistý bazén, možnost využít pračku a sušičku. Majitelé jsou velmi milí lidé. Jen jedno upozornění, které ale je i v popisku, jen jsme si nevšimli, že manželská postel je poměrně úzká.
• marion (9/5): Super fijn! - Fijne plek met een fijn zwembad!
• Jimny (10/5): - Súper limpio y cómodo todo está muy ordenado y la piscina deliciosa ☀️🏝️ cerca de la playa y de lugares para hacer compras.
• Albert (10/5): -
• Pablo (10/5): Tranquilidad y comodidad - Ubicación, el lugar es muy bonito y cómodo
• DELPHINE (10/5): Fabuleux! - Tout était parfait! Accueil, chambre, piscine, lieu dans son ensemble. Très bonne boulangerie à côté « The Bakery » RAS
• Rene (8/5): - Schönes modernes Haus mit tollen Pool. Bäcker und andere Läden fußläufig erreichbar. Matratze war durchgelegen und nicht akzeptabel weil ein Kuhle entsteht in die man ständig hineinrollt. Schade das die Fenster nicht verdunkelt werden können.
• Andrea (10/5): -
• Tessa (10/5): -
• Bennett (10/5): - Quiet and peaceful a brilliant location I would recommend thus to anyone it was excellent
• Dominique (6/5): Belle maison mais... - Très belle maison mais dommage que l’on ne nous ai pas signalé que le code du portail ne fonctionnait plus...depuis quelques temps. Également wc bouché dès l'utilisation, plafonnier d’une chambre ne fonctionnant pas (il faut 1h pour le réparer nous a t’il été dit !?). Vaisselle en seulement 4 exemplaires (pour 4 personnes) mais que 3 couteaux, pas de saladiers pour salades, tout petit plat pour le four. Dommage que tout soit prévu au minimum. Ce qui est noté dans ce que j’ai aimé
• Carlos (8/5): -
• Bruno Masciarelli (10/5): - Es un sueño, con una decoración maravillosa, y una ubicación fantástica!
• Mario (8/5): -
• Elena (8/5): -
• Philippa (10/5): -
• Matthias (9/5): -
• Judith (10/5): We highly recommend this home for a relaxing and private space - Great facilities, lovely pool. The sliding glass door in unit 1 was difficult to slide.
• Susanne (8/5): - Lage war sehr gut Ventilator aussen bei Terrasse sollte angebracht werden
• Matthias (9/5): Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit hier und haben den Pool sehr genossen. - Die Unterkunft ist sehr modern eingerichtet und gut ausgestattet. Die Matratzen sind etwas weich, liegt aber an meinem persönlichen Eindruck.
• ANNALISA (7/5): -
• Lara (8/5): Great location, great pool, very quiet - The house is very pretty and spacious, it also has immediate access to the pool and there's AC in every room. We also had towels to use at the pool and blankets to use in the bed There's some things like: better cleaning, no extractor fan in the kitchen, which means that if you're cooking it smells a lot and can be a problem with the smoke, laundry service at extra cost, the lights in the balcony didn't work, the bed mattress was too soft
• Nadia (10/5): Parfait - Logement bien situé et confortable. Piscine partagée agréable. À proximité de plusieurs restaurants et du parc Marino Ballena. Hôte très réactive et disponible.
• Romain (9/5): -
• Sem (10/5): Helemaal top. - Heel mooi huisje met een lekker zwembad. Al met al top Niks
• Oliver (9/5): Jederzeit wieder🙂 - Alles war sehr sauber. Die Villa war für 3 Personen optimal.Die Terasse perfekt um am Abend noch ein Glas Wein zu trinken. Leider wenig Platz um seine Kleidung aufzuräumen, ein zusätzlicher Schrank wäre gut.
• Ivan (9/5): - The accommodation was rather luxurious, with a shared swimmming pool. The size was adequate for four people. The furniture and equipment were brand new. It was conveniently located near Uvita centre and the beach. It had a small garden where we could see an agouti. Nothing to complain
• Benedikt (10/5): -
• Humberto (9/5): -
• Barbara (10/5): - House is great!
• Patric (9/5): Tolles Haus mit Pool auf sicherem Grubdstück - Es stehen insgesamt 3 Häuser auf dem Grundstück mit Pool, die von allen genutzt werden. Wir waren immer alleine drin:) Die Vermieterin ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit gewesen in Bezug auf Fragen und Empfehlungen. Haus war sauber und gut ausgestattet
• Sourdin (10/5): - Logement original et propre. Il n’y a pas d’accueil en physique, mais l’hôte est très réactif via whatsapp ce qui facilite le séjour. Les équipements sont minimalistes mais suffisant pour l’essentiel
• Lukas (10/5): Great place to stay - bed could have been a bit bigger, but overall very pleased with the whole experience. Thank you! -
• Amrichová (9/5): -
• Lynne (9/5): -
• Kenza (9/5): -
• Alexander (10/5): Gern wieder - Tolle, geräumige Unterkunft mit schönen Pool. Ruhig gelegen. Top ausgestattet. Bäckerei zum Frühstück 100m entfernt.
• celia (9/5): - Beautiful studio for two, a well equipped small kitchen area, lovely patio and great pool which was shared with 2 other units and never busy. It was set back from the road so quiet. Everything was great except the bed. ...Unfortunately the bed was really soft and uncomfortable making it difficult to sleep. If it hadn't been for that our score would have been higher.
• Stefan (10/5): - Großes Appartement, schöner Pool, Brüllaffen, Aras…wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Gute Pizza zum Mitnehmen gegenüber, Bäckerei und Supermarkt 3 Min entfernt. Die Gastgeberin Judith war sehr hilfsbereit und sehr freundlich. Gerne kommen wir wieder….
• Rhonda (8/5): - Sheets were not a good quality

• Florencia (10/5): - Excelente todo, la piscina agrega valor. La comunicación fluida . Recomendable 100% Sin comentarios
• Laura María (10/5): -
• Freddy (10/5): Apacible, relajante y extremadamente tranquilo - Lo limpio, cómodo y espacioso Ideal para pasarla demasiado a gusto con la familia Además es muy privado y se encuentra muy bien ubicado Nada todo estuvo genial
• Pablo (10/5): Retiro muy bonito - Recomendado 100%. Repetiría sin duda! Todo me gustó! Muy seguro, cómodo, bonito No tener acceso a tema de limpieza directamente como papel higiénico, bolsas de basura, lavadora, cepillo y recogedor etc
• Slava (8/5): -
• Yael (10/5): - Muy amplio, moderno, excelente ubicación y cocina equipada. Todo muy bien
• quincho93 (10/5): -
• Jessica (10/5): Uno de los mejores alojamientos de nuestro viaje - Ubicación, instalaciones y trato de Judith.
• Clara (10/5): Uno de los mejores alojamientos de nuestro viaje a Costa Rica - El alojamiento nos encantó de principio a fin. La verdad es que es un oasis en el centro de Uvita y tienes muchísima intimidad. La piscina, la lavandería y el parking privado también son un puntazo. Además, Judith es un encanto y nos ayudó en todo momento :) Lo único mejorable sería la ducha ya que al no tener pendiente se acumula un poco el agua y las cortinas, que al no ser opacas, cuando se hace de día entra mucha la luz.
• Francisco (9/5): -
• Richard (10/5): - Excelente lugar. Tranquilo y muy comodo
• Cordoba Rojas (8/5): - Muy bonita la cabañita Que el agua del baño se filtra por debajo de la puerta y moja todo el baño
• Elizabeth (7/5): Okay, but not that amazing - We stayed at Tamandua Homes for the final three nights of our trip through Costa Rica. We arrived earlier than expected and called the contact person to ask if we could check in early or at least leave our luggage. Fortunately, the house was already cleaned, and we were told we could check in right away. Upon arrival, however, we found the cleanliness to be below our expectations. While the main areas were tidy at first glance, there was quite a bit of dust in less obvious spots—such as fan blades and corners. We also encountered ants in the bathroom, and the shower fixture was loose. To their credit, both issues were addressed the same day, but overall, we didn’t feel like the space was thoroughly clean. Noise from neighboring guests in the shared pool was quite audible, which made the place feel less private than we’d hoped. Additionally, the bed was small and not particularly comfortable—though this could be a matter of personal preference. After staying in four other accommodations across Costa Rica, this was unfortunately our least favorite. We requested a partial refund for the last night, hoping for a small gesture of goodwill, but this was declined. We chose to leave early and spent our final night in a more comfortable location. To be clear, Tamandua Homes is not a terrible place. It has its positives: it’s conveniently located near The Bakery, supermarkets, and nice restaurants. The private parking, air conditioning in all rooms, hammock, and pool are definite plus points. However, in our experience, the stay didn’t quite live up to the high ratings we had seen in reviews.
• Pablo (10/5): - Exelente ubicación, instalaciones limpias y modernas, 10 de 10
• Victoria (10/5): Best place to stay in Uvita - Its an amazing place. We will deffinitely be back Nothing, all was perfect
• Maga (9/5): - El lugar muy cómodo y tranquilo
• Sergio (10/5): - La limpieza del apartamento y la piscina es estupenda. Además del jardín lo tiene muy bien cuidado. Que tuviéramos que pagar 12 dólares para poder usar la lavadora.
• Ana Laura (8/5): Buen lugar. - La piscina, el baño. El lugar es bonito, está como escondido. Tiene un jardín bonito y la arquitectura es bastante agradable. La privacidad de la villa. Las cortinas en la de parejas no dan una privacidad adecuada. Quedan huecos y uno se siente un poco expuesto. Las almohadas casi no dan soporte y el aire acondicionado tiene poca potencia. Los basureros son demasiado pequeños y la cocina es un poco incómoda. Además la ventana de la cocina no tiene cortinas. El internet falla demasiado. La alfombra de la cocina estaba empapada y huele un poco a húmedo.
• Karla (8/5): Divertida y acogedora - Excelente ubicación, diseño de las instalaciones moderno, piscina,m muy agradable, host sumamente amable Los utensilios de cocina pueden mejorar ya que se derretían con el calor,la licuadora no funcionaba, el basurero del baño puede ser más grande
• Martina (9/5): Mega überraschendes tolles, fast neues Haus ! Haben es sehr genossen - Top gepflegtes, noch sehr neues Haus. Super unkomplizierte Schlüsselübergabe. Mit Waschraum, den wir zwar nicht benutzt haben, aber ein tolles Plus für längere Aufenthalte ist. Toller Pool und super Hausausstattung. Jederzeit wieder ! nichts. :-)
• Jeff (10/5): -
• Nikki (10/5): Prachtig comfortabel huis - Prachtige ruime bungalow, schoon en leuk ingericht. Zwembad voor de deur. Groot terras. Airco voor verkoeling. Echt heerlijk.En ondanks dat je in de plaats zelf zit, hoor je 's ochtends toch de brulapen en hebben we zelfs ara's gezien. Leuk (katten)cafe aan de overkant van de straat en bij het restaurant van de buren kun je geweldig eten.
• Júlia (10/5): Todo perfecto! - Todo!! La ubicación El jardín con piscina super cuidado Judith super amable
• Sally (8/5): - The pool was lovely and it was a large space nearby bar and restaurants with secure parking.Check in was really easy and overall a lovely place. It seemed a little unclean (kitchen was dusty) and the bathroom smelt strongly of drains. Also the curtains didn't cover all the windows so we felt a little exposed.
• César Moreno (9/5): - El apartamento en general es muy cómodo La comunicación con el personal es muy fácil El jardín y la piscina son fantásticos La casa está bien aclimatada Todo correcto pero echamos en falta algo más de espacio en el comedor. La mesa es un pelín justa para 4 personas
• Anja (8/5): Very good -
• Mark (9/5): Superb -
• Anaïs (9/5): Lovely! - Loved my stay here! The little house has everything you need (kitchenette where you can make small meals, spacious bathroom, lovely terrace and pool…). It’s located in the center and has a big supermarket and breakfast spots within 5 min walking distance. Be aware that there is no host present on site, but they are very responsive and helpful through whatsapp. Definitely would recommend it! While the house looks really nice and modern, it could be maintained a little be bit better.
• Castro (10/5): Exceptional -
• Maria (10/5): Exceptional -
• Brown (10/5): Exceptional -
• Arash (6/5): Fantastic House - Great location. Easy walking to shops, bars, and restaurants. Light and modern building. Great pool and landscaping. Neighbours dogs barking at night. Nothing the owners can do and not a fault of the property. But if you are a light sleeper, you may find it an issue some of the time.
• Danner (10/5): Exceptional - Perfecto!!!!
• Alice (8/5): A great place for a one night stay on our trip. Small but had everything you need. - Convenient and central but still quiet, modern and clean, good facilities and good value. Good parking and secure. Nice bars and restaurants nearby. Overall good but light comes in early with limited blinds, fine for us, not if you want a late sleep;)
• Sergei (10/5): Amazing place - Amazing property! Beautiful, quiet, modern and spacious place! Great swimming pool and roofed parking. Would definitely recommend!
• Klaudia (10/5): Exceptional - The best thing about this accommodation was Judith who took care of us. She was very helpful and always available. When we had a complain about our mattress, she immediately bought a new one and changed it. It made our sleep and stay at this villa 100% better! :) We also loved the shared pool and outside area a lot! The kitchen could be better equiped. There could be some more shelves for clothes.
• Benjamin (10/5): Amazing value, great accomodations and convienient location - Well designed, great pool, secure parking, walking distance to restaurants
• Elizabeth (9/5): Relax time in the nature with all services, great place, we could come back in the next time - Great location, comfortable, cute design of the house, swimming pool.
• Leah (7/5): Stylish, modern casita in a quiet off-street location. - Stylish modern unit. Just 3 units around a pool. Clean, well-maintained property. Quiet off-street location. Secure gated entry/parking. The bed was uncomfortable. But the hostess told us that another guest had made her aware of the problem, and she was awaiting delivery of a new mattress. The only other thing I would mention is that it is not actually a one-bedroom, as advertised. It’s one room with a small kitchenette, generally called a studio.
• Victoria (10/5): Peaceful and lovely - We had a lovely stay at Tamandua Homes. This place is amazing: so clean and beautiful inside and out. The pool is perfect for a quick dip and we enjoyed lounging on our little patio watching the hummingbirds. The property is beautiful and secure, plus it's an easy walking distance to several good restaurants. The staff were helpful and accomodating, as well. This was probably one of the nicest places I've stayed and I definitely wished we had more days here!
• Magdalena (10/5): Wonderful stay, relaxation and rest! - We stayed with our 3-year daughter. The rooms were kept very clean, the beds were comfortable, everything was perfectly organized. A nice living room and two rooms. In one there was a large double bed, in the other two separate beds that could be put together. We will definitely come back there 🫶
