Sean, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great apartment. Looked very new, in secure compound. Nice looking pool , though we didn't get use it. We got there too early and the room wasn't ready, but they let us leave the car in their secure car park while we went to the beach waiting for the official check in.

Charles, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

It’s difficult for me to leave only 3 stars, as the owners truly did their best to assist us—though they stopped short of offering a refund for our remaining days so we could stay elsewhere. Positives: The property itself is beautiful and appears to be a new build, just as advertised. The pool area is small but very lovely. The location is excellent; under a 10-minute walk to the National Park and close to several decent restaurants. However, our stay was less than ideal: Three out of four towels were stained, as were most of the pillowcases. We didn’t notice the stained bedsheets until late at night, so we ended up sleeping on top of them. Even more concerning was the cockroach issue. While I understand this is Costa Rica and we were on the ground floor, this was the only place we encountered cockroaches during our entire month in the country. The owners did provide us with spray, but it was unsettling. At first, they seemed to stay in the living area, but I later found one had gotten into our laundry bag—and made the trip with us to our next destination!
Sarah, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

The apartment was really nice and spacious. I definitely recommend this place. It would be nice to have a drying rack for wet towels, etc. The road to the apartment is dirt, so when it rains the road gets very muddy and can have lots of cars, so is tricky for walking along.
Paula, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful property with 2-bedroom apartment. The pool is amazing, and the owners are lovely and accommodating.

David, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Awesome location walking distance to the beach (5 minutes). Small Apartahotel with only 8 units. Caretaker was awesome and condo was well appointed and very clean. Property is 5 years old but looks new.
Emmanuel, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very nice property, safe, very clean and hygienic. Staff is very courteous and extremely vigilant big on security. Don't worry area is safe. Walkable to local restaurants and national park (Parque Ballena). Park is about 8 min walk to entrance and a 3 min. walk to nearest restaurant (Mediterranean food) also another excellent choice friendly staff.
CALEB, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Ballena Paridise is a well designed property. It is a spacious apartment. Property is very clean and well maintained. On arrival I was given a brief orientation and a set of keys and a remote for the gate. Loved the swimming pool and the beach is a couple of minutes walk from property. If you are a fellow journey person you will also appreciate this place.

Great condo in Uvita

This is a nice, spacious apartment/condo. Don't let the dirt road it is on concern you...the apartment is newer and nice, and in a private gated compound. Rooms were clean and spacious (ours was a two bedroom). Small pool available.
