Guest Reviews
- Maria (8/5): Logement atypique très sympa - Proche des commerces.
Logement calme et terrasse commune. Petite piscine à disposition.
Clim fonctionnelle.
Petite cuisine avec le minimum pour se faire à manger.
Eau chaude, salle de bain propre.
Personnel très gentil. Un peu loin à pied pour rejoindre le parc national.
- Jan Paul (9/5): - Tenía todas las amenidades que necesita uno, incluyendo toma 220v para el carro
- Wes Caballero (10/5): -
- Génesis Nicole (8/5): - Habian variss cositas para utilizar en la cocina que otros lados no tienen El acomodo de la cama y que la puerta nl estaba buena del todo la de la habitación y la de la salida no cerraba bien por lo que deja un poco la inseguridad
- Greylin (10/5): - Si
- Kevin (3/5): -
- Díaz H (8/5): Recomendaciones de hospedaje - Lo cómodo a pesar que no leímos que traía la parte de los impuestos y que cobran por suministros de limpieza. Entonces de consejo leer el total de lo que van a pagar y no solo lo que indica al momento de aceptar, dan azúcar café, aceite de cocina, filtros una pequeña plantilla electrica microondas. Adicional la ducha del baño Que el mueble de cocina estaba todo caído por partes, qué estaba un poco incómodo para lavar platos, los paños estaban percudidos, y que las sábanas de la cama parecía que no la habían cambiado, adicional que el colchón se hundia en el centro entonces uno se levantaba con dolor de espalda, pero a pesar de todo si volvería es muy lindo el lugar y la atención de la miselanea muy gentil
- Melendez Campos (8/5): - La ubicación y q tiene cocina y tiene comodidad y económico me agrada La picina no pude meterme estaba bastante sucia lastimosamente seguro porque llegó muchas personas en semana santa
- Marco (10/5): -
- Pablo (10/5): -
- María Victoria (10/5): -
- Solis (8/5): - La facilidad para llegar El olor a viejo. Falto aromatizante en las habitaciones. Olía a humedad
- Allan (8/5): -
- Elena (5/5): - Il personale è stato molto gentile e disponibile, permettendomi di lasciare la valigia prima del check-in. Tuttavia, il soggiorno è stato molto deludente. Le foto online sono chiaramente vecchie e non rappresentano lo stato attuale della struttura, che appare trascurata. La cosa più grave è stata l'igiene: la sera, mettendomi a letto, mi sono accorta che il materasso e i cuscini puzzavano tremendamente di sudore. Quando l'ho segnalato, la soluzione proposta è stata di andare io stessa a prendere i cuscini da un'altra camera. Un'esperienza inaccettabile. Nonostante la gentilezza dello staff, non ci tornerei.
- Rebeca (7/5): -
- Sharon (1/5): - En realidad nada me gustó solo la atención de la muchacha del aseo Que se dejarán la mitad del dinero sabiendo que no podíamos quedarnos cuando llegamos todo estaba sucio y no contaban con aire acondicionado por fallas en la luz
- Marcelo (8/5): Nice and convenient. - Comfortable at a good price. Convenient location. Has a kitchen. A bit cluttered, but good enough. Stayed two days and the lady didn't clean.
- David (8/5): -
- Stefany (8/5): Perfecto! - Ubicación, está cerca de todo! Y también la excelente atención por parte de Greg y Ruth El llavín de la puerta costaba un poco cerrarlo y la cocina era muy pequeña, y no contaba con una adecuada ventilación. todo lo demás perfecto
- Zsófia (8/5): -
- Kattia (10/5): Recomendado al 100 - La verdad todo, desde el momento que llegamos, el recibimiento fue ameno.
- Monica (7/5): - La ubicación está bien. Que soliciten pagar en efectivo o paypal pero no se indique previamente.
- Gaelle (7/5): -
- Vargas (10/5): - Excelente ubicación, habitación muy cómoda y muy completa ..

- Ajoy (8/5): -
- Mona (1/5): Not worth the money!! Mold, old, dirty, very noisy - Wouldn’t recommend. The container was moldy, dirty and very old. Kitchen was poorly equipped. They are currently hosting some workers in the containers instead of tourists. Those workers start making a lot of noice at 5:30am. When we asked them to not sit by the pool and talk loudly or listen to music and TikTok’s on full volume at 6am at the pool because it’s waking everyone up the called us (hijo de p*ta). So when you asked for silence you are being called very bad words. Told the management about it that didn’t care. Also when you pay in local currency they make up an exchange rate which is not the accurate one so you end up paying more. Plus those containers get extremely hot without AC you die
- Gamboa Valenciano (10/5): - Super recomendado. De hecho vuelvo pronto. Me gusto la cercanía a varios lugares y el aire acondicionado enfría super rico y no suena. El lugar es tranquilo
- Eleanor (2/5): - Very good location, low cost, host quick to reply to concerns Toilet overflowed on the first morning, rang host no answer, cleaner sent in, no cleaning supplies in the room other than washing up liquid, host tried to charge us for using towels to clean up toilet mess
- Benjamin (1/5): Ekelig, schlechter Service und falsche Abrechnung! Achtung!! - Nichts. Keine Check-In Information vorab. Wir standen vor dem Komplex und mussten den Besitzer anrufen. Die Container sind rostig, alles ist heruntergekommen und alt oder kaputt. Die Zimmer stinken, die Klimaanlage funktioniert so halb. Die Möbel sind teilweise kaputt, die Matratze so eingelegen, dass man in die Mitte rollt. Sehr hellhörig, die Straße laut so dass man nicht schlafen kann. Zuletzt wurde außerdem mehr verrechnet als bei booking.com angegeben - auf uns wurden die Kommissionsgebühr illegalerweise verrechnet (Booking sieht sich den Fall gerade an). Leider sehr enttäuschend und nicht empfehlenswert!
- Ana (7/5): - O exterior é muito agradável. Gostei das luzes e das cadeiras. Não vi ninguém responsável. Perfeito para quem gosta de auto check-in.
- Danny (9/5): -
- Marco (4/5): Decepción - Ubicación Limpieza, está lleno de insectos y mal olor la habitación además las
Instalaciones están muy dañadas
- Rosa (10/5): -
- fernandez (10/5): -
- Maria Fernanda (9/5): - Era perfecto. Cerca de supermercados, cafes, restaurantes. No es cerca de la playa.
- Magda (7/5): -
- gonzalo (10/5): -
- nicole (8/5): Clean and secure - Reid location and inexpensive for an overnight. Stay just a place to sleep. This would not be a comfortable place to hang out. There’s no couch obviously and it’s right next to the road. I thought it was fine. Considering that they only carry about what’s happening on this property, there were no negative surprises.
- Sibylle (8/5): - The communication with the host was prompt, the check in super easy. Location was good, about a 20 minutes walk to the beach
- Carla (5/5): -
- Jennifer (7/5): - Proximité des commodités à pied
Piscine propre et température agréable Aucune insonorisation
1 seule Casserole trop petite pour cuisson pour 2 personnes
Couteau de cuisine en plastique
Porte qui ferme mal mal et laisse entrer des petites fourmis
- Martina (2/5): - Floor was very dirty, lots of insects and dirt all over the floor in the whole place.
There were small ants everywhere in the kitchen and bathroom. In the evening there were so many flies inside of the room even room was closed all day.
Bed sheet and towels were clean but whole place felt dirty because all insects.
- Dennis (7/5): Prima als je er voor de locatie bent! - De locatie maakt deze plek een fijn verblijf! De containers hebben hun beste tijd gehad. Ruikt en ziet er vrij vochtig uit. De foto’s van de advertentie zijn een ruime tijd geleden gemaakt.
- Daniela (8/5): - Bien equipada y super limpia. Recomendada La apariencia por fuera es poco atractiva.
- Elena (8/5): -
- Eric (9/5): - Clean comfortable room with coffee pot, microwave, soft bed, hot shower, and col air conditioning at a great price. Easy check-in and out. I had to find a place for the night after my car broke down and lucked out on this place. Very satisfied customer. Nothing not to like.
- Naranjo (8/5): -
- fabien (4/5): Passable - L’hôtelier= rapidité dans le la prise en charge des demandes (remise des clés). Pas de service proposé pour le petit déjeuner.
- Alejandra (10/5): -
- SILVIA (8/5): -
- Fernando (10/5): -
- Gamboa Casasola (8/5): Mejoras - Es la segunda vez q vamos,todo bien excepto ropa de cama
!! Que la ropa de cama estaba sucias,almohadas mal orientes.Recomendacion poner protectores .
- Katherine (8/5): Very good -
- Bradley (9/5): Superb -
- Terrence (9/5): Nice little mini apartment in town - Cute little room, conveniently located in town. There’s a little pool, AC, TV, and kitchenette. It’s close to the whale tail beach. As advertised, it is a small space.
- Robroy12 (7/5): Needs some cleaning and maintenance - You can really see that you sleep in a container. Would be nice if they put up some information of how it was build. Maybe some pictures.
There is a small pool with nice temperature water. The place is not very clean. Its dusty, hairs from others. Sliding door not working.
The welcoming of the host consists of a bunch of house rules and excuses why the place is not clean. No information about Uvita or recommendations.
Location is pretty far from the beach. It's best if you drive there by car.
Beds are not comfortable. You can feel the springs.
- Natália (8/5): Very good - The host is very friendly and in general the room is comfortable to spend a few days. The pans are news, so we could cook simple things. We stayed for 5 days and no housekeeping, but fine. When we arrived the room was smelly so we had leave for a few hours open. And the signal to pay with card was awful, so it's necessary to pay in cash.
- Mia (10/5): Stay here it is wonderful! - Excellent concept and it works great! We loved staying here and have never stayed in a 40 foot shipping container before, let alone a series of them made into a hotel complete with pool and deck! The apartment was so well done and cute. It had all the amenities we needed and was designed very nicely. Shower pressure excellent and good hot water. The little hotplate worked well and we appreciated the provision of pots, crockery, cutlery, and chopping board. We also liked that salt, pepper and cooking oil were also provided. And of course coffee and a small coffee maker. The pool was great!! And we also liked the little seating area upstairs. Alina is so nice, friendly, and helpful!! We loved our stay and the price point is very very good for what you get. I would recommend container living for anyone!!! There was nothing we didn’t like, everything was perfect!
- Keylor (9/5): Superb - Street parking
- Tanya (10/5): Exceptional - This is a super place to stay! The host and staff were so very kind and the studio just perfectly designed to feel like you were living in a small home-from-home. The internet was strong and stable: the bed posh-hotel grade and I slept like a dream. Really happy with my choice and I will definitely book here again. Everything was perfect!
- Micha (9/5): Cool experience - very creative and nice experience, we also liked the pool
- Richard (10/5): Great value for money in Uvita, and great they take dogs. I will be back. - Friend staff and not issues at all. Super clean room with hot water.
- Gregory (10/5): For a short, medium or long stay. You will not be disappointed with Emi's. Emi's Rocks. - I've needed to leave comments about my stay at Emi's Place for some time, so this is getting in a bit late - sorry about that. My stay was just a day shy of two weeks in September of 2024. The accommodations were on the money for me and my needs. I'm a solo traveler and needed first, clean facilities - check. I've lived in Costa Rica for 10 years and usually you will find most places you stay, eat or drink at - first rate when it comes to being exceptionally sanitary. I have to admit, I'm still in awe of the cleaning protocols in Costa Rica. Wherever you go, there is someone cleaning. I like that. Anyway, I'm a former Road Warrior that traveled no less that 200 nights a year for around 20+ years, know the ups and downs of the good, the better, the best and ugly of lodging accommodations in the states mostly, so yes, Emi's has this covered quite well. OK, here was something that blew me away and was a spectacular unknown bonus during my stay.....Unreal water pressure and endless on demand hot water delivered by multiple robust systems on the property. After long days of trekking to the beach and about town - well that was really appreciated. The onsite management made me feel welcome and assisted with a few requests at the highest levels during my stay . Exceptional "Customer Service" is never created equal, and Emi's will have your best lodging interest, needs and safety at the top of their client services. I will always stay at Emi's when I visit Uvita, as the repurposed "Container Lodging" establishment included an exceptionally functional kitchen where I was able to cook and prepare most of my meals, a adequate "new" fridge that keep food items and a few cervezas nice and cold for perfect consumption. The bed mattress was extremely comfortable, clean linens, comfy pillows, a nice (very clean and serviced) swimming pool in the courtyard and kick ass, off the chain WIFI. You will love Emi's. I had no problems at Emi's and it fit my needs with a laser beamed focus. On da money. Loved Emi's.
- Eva (6/5): Pleasant - We probably didn't have a luck of the room as the kitchen was full of ants. Morning there was watercut till 2 pm so we couldn't shower or splash The toilet. The girl from reception gave us some water on the bottle and apologize however they know about the problem of water cut that is happening often and also about the ants. So first renting the place I would solve the issues and have some cleaning and water tank sufficient for all rooms. The place is container close to the street and as the walls are not isolated you hear everything car passing or people only talking out.the Plece was as it is on the photos new furniture kitchen parking outside.
- Roelof (9/5): Superb - Looking for pure value for money? This is your spot! We spent 3 nights in one of the containers and were very satisfied. Comfy beds, proper wifi, a kitchenette for making coffee or a quick meal and a mini super around the corner. Thumbs up!
- Diego (10/5): Exceptional - Super easy to do the check in and out and very helpful for requests
- Micheal (8/5): Very good -
- Chantal (8/5): Great value for price! Good budget option. - Great central location, easy check-in, friendly host and great value for the price. The property is a little run down and the cleaning wasn’t great. However, for this price it’s great deal and you also shouldn’t expect too much. It’s a great budget option!
- Rebecca (10/5): We were only there for a short time to rest and get back on the road. It was clean and comfy. - Clean and comfortable with good AC.
- Someguy123 (7/5): Good - Friendly staff, A/C, free parking some hair and dirt was present in our room
- David (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect.
The concept is very original and sustainable. The rooms are repurposed shipping containers. They are all similar, with a double bed and another one above, like a bunk bed, plus a kitchen and bathroom. Everything is very clean and comfortable.
The hosts are friendly, offering advice and helping to organize tours.
The price is very reasonable, and it's just a 5-minute walk from a couple of restaurants and a supermarket.
It's a great place to stay if you want to explore Uvita and the surrounding area. Res, tot ha anat bé
- Ana (8/5): Cool concept, great price - Cool concept
