Had a three night stay here, it’s very close to the national park and beach in a very safe area with a lot of food options. Room was spacious, bed was very comfortable and the AC worked very well. Scott was a great host and readily available to answer any questions. As a woman, solo traveller, would def recommend.

A real oasis in Uvita. Felt like staying at a friends house. So many details on the property & inside the room showed how much fun the owner must have renting his rooms and meeting people.

Cabina D’Val is an ideal accommodation within Uvita. Wonderful individual units with all the amenities one needs for a comfortable Costa Rica adventure. Easy walking to Playa Ballena and services. Our host, Scott was the best and was always extremely hospitable. Would return in a heartbeat to enjoy the Pura Vida at Cabinas D’Val.

It's a cute, cozy, gated place with just a few rooms, a common area with a fully equipped kitchen, a small entertainment area, and a pool. There's a ceiling fan, an AC, a laundry hanger inside the room. Walking distance from a few decent restaurants and the national park beach.

This is a great place to stay in Uvita. We did not have a car while we were here but we could walk everywhere we needed to go. It is centrally located and very close to a couple of entrances to the Ballena National Marine Park as well as some food stores and several restaurants. Kinsu restaurant, which is excellent, is less than a 3min walk away. Scott is usually around to answer any questions or concerns you may have. He will arrange tours and transportation for you if required. He had to go back to the USA while we were there but he made arrangements for another man to come and stay at his place so someone was always there to look after any needs we may have had. The shared outdoor kitchen area was a great place to have lunch and breakfast; we went out for dinner each night. It was nice to be able to have fridge and freezer space in the big shared fridge in the outdoor kitchen. Our room was comfortable and we appreciated the small fridge and sock coffee maker in our room. Scott supplied the coffee and sugar. There are only 3 cabinas which is nice, people to talk to if you want but not busy. The pool is great for swimming.

The property is tidy, clean, organized, intimate and festive. There are only 3 rooms so quaint, which is appropriate for the small town of Ballena. Our room was clean, organized and well stocked for the traveler (beach towels, umbrella, hangers, drying rack, safe, mini kitchen..). AC works well and wifi is strong. There is key code for the gate so secure at night. Scott knows the quality adventure companies too! He provides detailed instructions for check in and recommendations for dining, activities, etc.

Ever stayed in cabina before so little skeptical. Owner met us in parking area, walked us through everything we needed to know about facility ,restaurants and town. 2 day stay and will return . Great pool and common area. Owner could teach small hotels/ lodges customer service skills and hospitality.

Cabinas d’Val is an amazing place to stay in Uvita! Great location, just a quick walk to the beach or into town. Lots of great restaurants nearby and so quiet and peaceful. The bed is so comfortable, I slept amazing here. The owner Scott is an amazing host and made me feel so welcome. As a woman traveling alone, feeling safe and secure where I am staying is always important and the Cabinas was perfect in this respect. I will definitely be coming back. Stay here you won’t regret it!
