A cheap option for a one- or two-night stay if you only need a place to sleep
A good and inexpensive accommodation option if you're staying in Uvita for just one or two nights and only plan to return for sleep.
- Unbeatable price.
- Friendly and helpful host.
- Good location.
- There's a kitchen and a fridge, so you can cook by yourself.
- Self check-in and check-out.
The price is great and really unbeatable, but even considering how cheap this place is, there are some significant drawbacks:
1. There's no table, bedside table, or even a small shelf. At the same time, there are gaps in the floor, with bare ground underneath. Where are guests supposed to put small items, especially things (like coins or bank cards) that could fall through the gaps in the floor?
2. Of the two shower stalls, one is practically unusable because there's no latch to lock the door from the inside. The other, usable one doesn't have a single hook. Where are guests supposed to hang their clothes? Additionally, everything in the shower stalls is rusty.
3. It's very hot during the day and cold at night, but no blanket is provided.
There are also some characteristics that aren't necessarily drawbacks, considering the nature of this accommodation, but may be inconvenient for many guests:
1. There's no any sound insulation. Sleeping here feels just like sleeping outdoors.
2. There's no hot water.

UPDATE (October 16, 2026):
After I published my original review with a rating of 7/10, the owner of "Ballena Oasis Homes & Chalets" sent me an unsolicited WhatsApp message stating: "You are 💩💩💩💩".
This happened in the same WhatsApp conversation we had used for all communication regarding my stay, including check-in, check-out, and payment.
The message appears to have been sent in response to my objective and balanced review, which described both the positive aspects and the shortcomings of the accommodation.
I consider such behavior completely unacceptable from a hospitality provider.
While the accommodation itself is basic but okay for short staying, this incident has significantly changed my overall impression of the property and its hospitality. I have therefore revised my original review and lowered my rating from 7/10 to 2/10.

Lo recomiendo
El anfitrión nos dejó entrar antes a la habitación. Los jardines son muy bonitos. Bien ubicado.
Falta una luz en la mesita de noche. Equipar mejor la cocina de la habitación. No usé la cocina comunitaria.

Very loverly expensive for a short vacation!
The garden is incredible and the feeling that you are surrounded by nature!!! Also Jorge was very helpful and kind.
I was a bit confused by wholes in the floor, thought that would attract wild life into the house but lucky not even one mosquito bothered me during my stay

Good location close to the national park, a bit of a walk to get into the centre of Quepos but there were plenty of restaurants and cafes etc nearby so not an issue. Great price. Very helpful host, let us check in early and leave our bags on the last day. All of the facilities that we needed.
We got the private cabin it was a small and basic but honestly for the price it was still great value, and what we expected.
