everything about Yuli hotel was perfect! The staff were super friendly and helpful! The room was very spacious and clean with direct access to the pool! The restaurant at the property was great too!already planning to go back!
Our stay was fantastic! Great location if you want to enjoy the national park and local restaurants. Wonderful staff and a clean room. The restaurant was a treat!
Wonderful staff, ready to help, beautiful plants and pool! Great to have a restaurant on property with a great happy hour as well many close by. So close to the beach only con was rooms smelled damp like it had been flooded or water damage, also little soundproofing in-between units.
Yuli hotel is great,I loved my stay!
The restaurant is one of the most expensive in town though,you will get a 10% discount,but even then!
Despite that eveything was great,staff is friendly,it's clean and quiet.They let you stay at the pool on the day of check out,which I felt is generous.
You will need a car or at least a bicycle to get around.
Super close to Ballena national Park. if you’re gonna stay here, you should visit Las esferas restaurant its a 3 min walk and one of the best residence I visited in Costa Rica

Nice place, pool, close to beach. Downside is the restaurant music system which runs from 10am to 10pm. During the day it’s just loud, at night it’s blaring and pounding. First evening was merely unpleasant, second was worse as there was an event in the restaurant.
Very nice hotel, room was great, comfy location. Limited on site parking but plenty of spaces along the road. The adjoining restaurant was very good. Great location for the beach. just note that the restaurant plays music for most of the evening and people by the pool so could be quite noisy till about 10pm depending where your room is, wasn't a problem for me but maybe for some.
Beautiful place to chill and relax Helpful and friendly staff
Wonderful relaxing pool would suggest perhaps a few more loungers as they were taken very quickly
Room was wonderful we were fortunate to have a little kitchenette which was great.
In all a fabulous experience
We really liked this place. It was a 5 minute walk from the park entrance and plenty of bars and restaurants. The pool as great and never crowded at all. There is also a restaurant on site, I believe it was called Seba's, and it is absolutely fantastic. Seba's provided by far the best service we had anywhere in Costa Rica. I highly recommend staying here due to the quality of the facility, the location and the convenience of having such a great bar/restaurant on site.
We were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary upgrade on arrival, and the room itself was lovely. However, the walls are quite thin, so light sleepers may be disturbed, we could hear the neighbouring room guest snoring.
The staff were friendly and helpful overall, and the location was excellent, within easy walking distance of the national park and local amenities.
Unfortunately, the restaurant and bar were disappointing. They appeared understaffed, leading to slow service. Breakfast options were limited, substitutions were made without informing us on one occasion, and some staff seemed unfamiliar with operating the coffee machine.
Clean and big rooms however with space unused wherea sofa or a small table could fit. No TV. Nice bathroom with hot water. Restaurant on site is not property owned/managed with limited and pretentious menu, overpriced and with loud music until 10 pm. I would say that the only inconvenience at this hotel is the noise at night in case you want to rest early. Property is 4 blocks away from national park. And few Restaurants close by.
Really bad. After a long trip from Santa Teresa to Uvita we arrived at Yuli to check in. They told me they haven’t had a room for me and that my reservation was for a day after. I had my reservation confirmation and showed them it was on that day that we arrived. They didn’t had any room for us (I made the reservation one or two months before). They gave us an alternative for the night, an airb&b which was nice. Still we lost a lot of time, also for the next day we had to do the check in at yuli at 2 so we couldn’t do any long activities. I asked if they could somehow make up for it and they told me they would check and never answered anything. Also they say they have laundry service which isn’t true. They have a contact and you give her your clothes and pay extra so she picks the clothes up and brings them back. Also, our room was by the restaurant which was soooo loud.
The receptionist were really nice and friendly though and helped with the tours and everything.
Yuli Hotel was so closest the beach - it was an amazing stay - beautiful grounds - wonderful pool - the restaurant on site was so good! I would stay here again- 100%! Staff were amazing and the rooms were clean and beds were comfortable - the balcony was such a treat!
Property made me wait over an hour and tried to say they didn't receive payment the property doesnt look like the pictures the parking is absolutely terrible.
Nice hotel, nice staff good pool, good location good food. The rooms were clean and overall we had a good stay. I read reviews about the LOUD music, however this was not our experience. No loud music just some chill background music at the restaurant but nothing obnoxious
