Pros: Very cozy vibes, kind staff, comfortable common area, easy to get to know other backpackers. It's not close to the center of Uvita (main entrance national park) but 50 m from the beach (entry national park ~ 6 USD).
Cons: As the hostel is still under construction it has a lot of potential. Some recommendations: the upper bunk beds are super uncomfortable, very thin and soft matress. The lower bunk beds are very comfortable because they have two matresses. It would be helpful to have lockers because anyone could walk in there and everything is open. Please install a sink close to the toilets! ;)

Nice hostel few steps from the beach
Pros: Just few steps from the beach, the owner is super nice and offered us free rides to explore other beaches around. Just few people when I stayed there so was comfortable enough. There is a restaurant just beside, others in the area and supermarkets are 10 mins walking
Cons: If you want to rent surf boards from them pay in US dollars otherwise is not a good deal. Place is still in construction so it’s going to be more practical, with more showers and toilets.

Close to the beach, beatiful place for surfers.
Pros: Location of Nomadic Surf Camp is perfect. It is just 3min walk to the beach, you can rent surf board there. We were group of six so we can have one dormitory room for ourselfs. Owner is rally helpful and always at your service. The common areas are nice with plenty of seating space. You can enjoy your time here around noon when it is too hot on the beach.
Cons: The volunteers at the hostel were friendly, but we often encountered same time use of the kitchen, which is very small, and it often happened that we didn't get our turn to cook until late in the evening. There are a lot of volunteers and everyone cooks separately or in small groups, so the pressure on the kitchen is really high. Unfortunately, they don't clean up after themselves and often leave it up to the cleaning lady who cleans the common areas every morning. It would help if there was a separate kitchen for guests and a kitchen for volunteers. The volunteers also used the fridge for guests which was very full. In the dormitory room is only one wardrobe for all six people, so there is no space for keeping you stuff. It was fortunate that during our stay the owner attached a few more hooks to our room, so the situation improved a bit. Do not expect the hot tub in the picture to be at the guests' service. It was outside the property during our stay.

Excellent and pleasant
Pros: The kitchen is very complete, which I think is super important, and the atmosphere is very calm. The best part is that it is just steps from the beach
Cons: the sound and movement of the bed in the Mixed Dormitory Room

Nice spot, especially if you surf.
Pros: The lad who runs the place is very nice and there is an outdoor bath, which I loved in the evening. Few monkeys around and right on the beach (paid access).
Cons: A mosquito net would help.

Pros: Das Camp ist einer der besten Orte, die ich je besuchen durfte. Ich hatte eine Nacht gebucht und bin drei geblieben. Viele tolle Menschen, die Lage perfekt direkt am Meer und super ruhig in Uvita gelegen,, man fühlt sich durch die Affen und vielen Vögel wie im Dschungel...die Stimmung ist toll, der Betreiber ein genialer Typ, der hier ein kleines Paradies geschaffen hat. Wer mag, kann in der Gruppe an einer Aktivität teilnehmen, Surfstunden nehmen, sich kreativ betätigen oder einfach die Seele baumeln lassen. Der Abschied fiel hier wirklich schwer. Ich kann es nur weiterempfehlen 🙏
