A beautiful recently opened hotel, minutes away from the beach and the whales! The garden and the swimming pool are peaceful and georgeous. The guests will experience ´pura vida´! The restaurant is open and airy and serves homemade Italian food and traditional cuisine. We speak Spanish, English and German.
Everything was awesome. Clean facilities, lovely pool, super helpful host, great location from the town and the beach, powerful aircon, hot showers. Just excellent. We extended our stay twice. Super comfortable mattress and pillows, not too soft, not too firm. Also the restaurant next to the hotel was exceptional. If you want to completely unwind and just stop and take a breath for a minute, this is the place. Thank you Axel.

I loved every moment of my time here! Patricia and Felipe are wonderful and welcoming people. There is a Spanish school and waterfall within walking distance that was amazing too. The rooms are comfortable, there is a pool, aircon, and a fabulous restaurant. I daydream of returning to this magical place! Thank you! Katie

Lovely, super clean rooms with a nice little pool and seating area. The owner, Felipe, is a great guy. Knowledgeable, friendly and sociable. The restaurant is superb too. I would urge anyone to try the pescado con mariscos, it’s the best meal I’ve had in CR. The only downside was that I only discovered this dish on my last night!!! All in all, a great place.

Stayed here on a church mission trip to Refugio Solte and was pleasantly impressed with the cleanliness of the rooms in small Uvita, Costa Rica. The owners run a nice Brick Oven covered outdoor restaurant next door where the food was great including a breakfast buffet. Haven't stayed at other hotels in that area (There aren't many) but would definitely recommend Hotel Luz De Luna. A friendly Toucan perched on a branch to bid us goodbye as we left.

We loved the Best Kept Secret in Uvita, Costa Rica. Pool was refreshing and the breakfast was delicious each morning. We also ate our evening meals next door and the best pizza around the area. You have to try the famous Chicken Lasanga.

I've been traveling to Uvita for about 5 years now. Usually I stay at a friends place but I couldn't swing that this time, so I started looking for a nice hotel. When I found Luz de Luna I was instantly ready to book because I saw that the hotel restaurant is La Fogata. La Fogata is one of my favorite spots to eat in Uvita so I figured my family (who I was playing tour guide and travel agent for) and I would all be happy. We were. The staff is great, the rooms are clean and air conditioned, theres a nice pool, its not far from anything (as far as Uvita goes), and of course the breakfasts that are included are wonderful. It's operated by local Costa Ricans which is great too. It's worth the stay!

The restaurant on site had terrific food. The servers got slow after your food arrived, which made it a challenge to get that second glass of wine. The owner Felipe was awesome. I would stay there again due to Felipe, the food, and the location. You have to check it out for yourself!

Place came thru clutch when we were looking for a place last minute. The free breakfast and pool with the reasonable price was an added bonus. Only knock is that the shower wouldn’t drain but they were nice about it.

Owner , Felipe , is super nice , has a well trained friendly staff, clean rooms with TV and AC, lovely bathroom, deck and pool. Great restaurant adjacent, the food is excellent and they gave me my breakfast way beyond the “ 9 “ am time . In the evening you can relax in a cozy seating area with candles and local music - and they let me sit there even after they had left. There is parking by the hotel, Wifi not always working in rooms, but definitely in restaurant area. I stayed there last summer for 2 weeks. I will for sure stay there again.
