The room is very comfortable. The kitchen is simple, but well equipped. We enjoyed the pool, which was perfectly clean. The staff was super friendly and took a lot of time to explain everything to us and to give us advices. The hotel is located in walking distance to the beach, the supermarket, ATM and restaurants.

Fabulous property on a great location. Incredible price to performance, with new spacious rooms and excellent facilities. The owners are so friendly and helpful, can also arrange a variety of tours and surf lessons if needed. A special plus is the all day availability of coffee machine, some fruits and biscuits/snacks.

Hotel Faremita is a little oasis in Uvita not too far from the national park. It has beautifully designed rooms with comfortable beds and a functional bathroom. Rooms possess a nice big balcony. Tghe property has a beautiful inner courtyard with a pool to refresh yourself. At night, there is nice lightening, so you can still end the day with a dip in the water. We would definitely recommend Faremiti if you wanna stay in a cozy environment in walking distance from Parque La Ballena. We will surely revisit when travelling again to Uvita.

There's an uplifted elegant energy throughout the grounds, from the security guard to the cleaning staff. Our two story unit smelled like rich wood. The layout was excellent design for safety, privacy, and super comfortable beds, chairs. AC was great in each bedroom, fans, curtains all clean and in great condition. The bathrooms lighting, hot water and linen quality were exceptional. It is worth mentioning that there we few mosquitos for Ojochal. The space is ample and well equipped for cooking or working remotely, even if there were several occupants. I could stay here long term. My 14 year relaxed. He enjoyed the pool, and commented on how intelligent the whole plaza was with a pharmacy, spa services, bar, store and restaurant all weaved together with hotel. We cannot say enough about the restaurant and we booked another night at end of trip because my son has to come back for more. Citrus is a gem. Families can relax and enjoy pool day, see many bird and plant species.

It's a hidden gem. We regretted to have only stayed two nights. The view is amazing, there are tucans flying around in close proximity, the pool is large and there were only few other guests. The food is delicious, too, and the owners are very approachable. Waiters are very friendly and it's quite close to the Marino Ballena National Park. Book it, you won't regret it.
