"The Hotel Ballena Ray is a gem. While the overall vibe is laid back, the rooms are perfect for a long stay with kitchenette and other basic amenities.

You can swim until 9PM, which is a nice bonus after a long day exploring the surrounding areas of Uvita, Ballena Marine National Park (5 minute walk from the property) and the surrounding areas....

Top Platanares Hotel Reviews

Bahia Selvatica Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The place is located very close to one of the two entrances of the Bahia Ballena National Park. The staff was very helpful and willing to assist in any of our requirements. The place is well maintained and very clean. The manager was very professional and kind with us."

Villas Alturas

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was very good clean, and the stuff was very friendly"

Hotel Three Sixty - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Another wonderful stay! The property was as lovely as ever and staff is superb! I love returning here each time. We had 90-minute massages that were incredible, I was so relaxed that I actually fell asleep. Can’t wait to be back there again!"

Lamangata Luxury Surf Resort - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"We had the best time at Lamangata - the hotel is stunning. You can tell Hernan & team take immense pride in the property, as it's impeccably cared for. The pool is also an absolute dream. One thing to note is that the property functions a bit like a chalet, with a setup designed to encourage interaction among guests. If you are open to this, it’s a massive highlight. The rooms are beautiful and offer sweeping views over the vast forest all the way down to the ocean. The surprising highlight of the trip was the unbelievable food. Chefs Eladio and Tony make everything from scratch, and it's all delicious. For activities, my friend took surf lessons and had a fantastic time, learning a huge amount in a very short period. Junior (the head coach) is an incredible teacher. Even though I didn’t surf this time, watching them made me want to come back for a dedicated week of learning! Location-wise, the hotel is situated up a long gravel road, so having a 4x4 is definitely helpful. However, the hotel team is also great at getting you wherever you need to go. You can't walk anywhere directly from the property, but it’s only a quick 10-15 minute drive to the nearest small town. The only minor inconveniences were that the Wi-Fi and the air conditioning in our room could occasionally be a little unreliable. However, the staff always sorted it out quickly, so it really didn't impact our stay. Overall, Lamangata is a truly special place. I can't wait to return!"

Oxygen Jungle Villas & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place to stay in Costa Rica!!! Mind blowing view of the ocean from the pool area. Amazing food and the service is 5+ We had an awesome room with an outdoor tub. Even had an iguana living in the tree above our bungalow. Will be back again one day !!!"

La Cusinga Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely property. Full of trails in its reserve. Went to the shore - 20 minutes through the woods - to the most magnificent and wild shore. Like heaven! Also went to the natural pool and waterfall - beautiful and cool! The garden, the ocean view from every spot, and the natural and simple wooden rooms - all was a great scene for nature. Dishes of the hotel restaurant (lunch/dinner), not cheap but very tasty. The only thing we missed is an umbrella (which was a must in any other hotel this time of year) for all very wet evenings that we got wet until got to the car..."

Canavida Villas & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Un lugar espectacular para vacacionar. Tranquilo, muy bien equipado, hermosa vista. Sólo que se debe mejorar las indicaciones para llegar, la indicación no es tan precisa las aplicaciones pueden llevarte por un camino más corto pero intransitable para vehículos sencillos."

Yuli Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful place to stay, we loved it."

Cristal Ballena Boutique Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed for 5 nights at the hotel. The hotel has the most beautiful view of the ocean. The restaurant was great for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The swimming pool was beautiful. We saw all kinds of birds and animals in the ground of the hotel. Highly recommend for anyone staying around the Uvita area with a car."
