We enjoyed the bar and the pool and we were within walking distance of a fabulous dining spot. ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dinia Aug 23, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff was attentive and very willing to help you…Steven was very nice and gave us a welcome tour of the property and amenities…the only draw back and it was very small..no outlet in the bathroom…other than that the price was more than reasonable for the stay..🙂 ##### Dinia Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy Mar 13, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hidden gem ##### Kathy Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Dec 1, 2024 The breakfast was amazing ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Loic Oct 10, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Fair hostel Great service, rooms were a bit rustic though ##### Loic Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jose Mar 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was my first time being in a hostel and i am happy it was at this location. Pierre and his staff were amazing. They made sure everyone was taken care of. The dormatories from what inwas told are a lot better here then your average hostel. Pierre is more than willing to help you with your itinerary and where to eat. My stay in Uvita was a lot better because Tucan. ##### Jose Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2023 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Jill Feb 22, 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities hostel type atmosphere but definitely had a focus on selling you drinks and food at high prices. In commercial area just off main road, not near beachside. Breakfast was disappointing and not comparable to other hostels; no juice. Good smoothies but other drinks were $10usd or more. Good staff but limited knowledge of area behind tours they sold. ##### Jill Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Francis Dec 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Atypique et personnel très sympathique merci Pierre pour accueil ! ##### Francis Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ellen Feb 7, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The young woman at the front desk from Argentina was very very helpful .

La déco est parfaite, les patrons et les employés/volontaires sont adorables, il y a tous ce dont on peut avoir besoin (ustensiles de cuisine, serviettes, vélos, etc.) Seul petit bémol, la route est un peu bruyante mais ca ne m’a pas dérangé plus que ça. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 4, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Tican Incredible staff running the hotel! Only down side is many dogs at the hotel that also poo wherever they like so if you don’t like dogs it wouldn’t be nice. Overall incredible place though and we really enjoyed it! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Sep 2, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had such a warm welcome at this hostel. It's a laid back place, where you can have some space and chill-out time, but also you can get some great tips from others also staying. We ate in one night and had a really great meal. The owners had just come back after a couple of years away and were beginning to make changes/update rooms. There is a great bakery opposite (try the cinnamon rolls) and the supermarket is a couple of minutes away. The kitchen facilities are ample and lots of fridge space. There are also lots of great restaurants nearby. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing service, location and food ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2019 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 8, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Cute and quaint.

The Tucan hotel is the kind of place you feel well, that you don't want to leave. We can't tell all what we like about this place, well organised, shadowed parking... near to facilities and still a quiet place to sleep. ##### Eric Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### SB Apr 24, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place. Thank to Alex, Maria and Miguel. As a team and individuel you made our stay a Fun Mémorial Vacation. My sons AJ and Karl love this place. Very convenient and affordable. Like very much the fact we can cook our meal in the commun kitchen. Plenty Space to relax and meet other travelers. ##### SB Stayed 9 nights in Apr 2018 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jan 5, 2018 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Stayed in a double room with private bathroom but was disappointed to be in a stuffy room with no air flowing and very little space. All the rooms are very dark with no natural light. Breakfast not tasty but there is a baker not far from the hotel as an alternative. Recommendations for things to do in the area were not helpful and we had to insist to be booked on a certain tour. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [HRG Condos at Los Sueños](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-HRG-Condos-At-Los-Suenos.h3849595.Hotel-Information) > - [La Mariposa Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-La-Mariposa-Hotel.h119352.Hotel-Information) > - [Los Suenos Resort Colina 8E](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-Los-Suenos-Resort-Colina-8E.h29874478.Hotel-Information) > - [Tulemar Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Tulemar-Resort.h12685352.Hotel-Information) > - [Believe Surf & Yoga Lodge Santa Teresa - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobano-Hotels-Surf-Yoga-Lodge-Santa-Teresa-Costa-Rica-Hostel.h46082350.Hotel-Information) > - [Los Altos Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Los-Altos-Resort.h3444310.Hotel-Information) > - [FLORBLANCA HOTEL ](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobano-Hotels-FLORBLANCA-HOTEL.h106700174.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Costa Verde](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Hotel-Costa-Verde.h5580910.Hotel-Information) > - [The Falls Resort at Manuel Antonio](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-The-Falls-Resort-At-Manuel-Antonio.h4112811.Hotel-Information) > - [ECOTICA Boutique Hotel & Spa.](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Byblos-Resort-Casino.h1449546.Hotel-Information) > - [Selina Manuel Antonio - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Selina-Manuel-Antonio.h16878783.Hotel-Information) > - [Casa Cedro - Portasol Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Casa-Cedro-Portasol-Vacation-Rentals.h26758340.Hotel-Information) > - [El Faro Containers Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-El-Faro-Containers-Beach-Hotel.h8249200.Hotel-Information) > - [ Luxury Beachfront Villa with private pool at Nantipa](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobano-Hotels-Villas-Nantipa.h70823032.Hotel-Information) > - [Surfside Apartments Playa Carmen](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobano-Hotels-Surfside-Santa-Teresa.h45545396.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Punta Leona](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-Hotel-Punta-Leona.h486442.Hotel-Information) > - [Mango Moon Villa](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Mango-Moon-Villa.h15203473.Hotel-Information) > - [Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Member of the Cayuga Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Arenas-Del-Mar-Beachfront-Rainforest-Member-Of-The-Cayuga-Collection.h1484897.Hotel-Information) > - [Banana Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobano-Hotels-Banana-Beach-Bungalows.h13315109.Hotel-Information) > - [Walking distance to beautiful Playa Matapalo!](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Walking-Distance-To-Beautiful-Playa-Matapalo.h30045669.Hotel-Information) > - [Barceló Tambor](https://www.expedia.ca/Paquera-Hotels-Barcelo-Tambor.h795208.Hotel-Information) > - [Punta Leona Playa Blanca COSTA RICA Sport Fishing ](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-Punta-Leona-Playa-Blanca-Herradura-Costa-Rica-Sport-Fishing.h33307490.Hotel-Information) > - [Igloo Beach Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-IGLOO-BEACH-LODGE.h46091182.Hotel-Information) > - [La Vela Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-La-Vela-Boutique-Hotel.h11881555.Hotel-Information) > - [Parador Nature Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Hotel-Parador-Resort-And-Spa.h1752985.Hotel-Information) > - [Si Como No Resort, Spa and Wildlife Refuge](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Si-Como-No-Resort.h1321388.Hotel-Information) > - [OPacifico Hotel Boutique](https://www.expedia.ca/Paquera-Hotels-OPacifico-Hotel.h36071725.Hotel-Information)
