The menu recently took a turn towards Asia. The owner is European and knows how to run a "high end" restaurant. If you are planning a "Big Night Out" this is a good choice

여행 팁
교통편
Renting a car is a good idea! BOOK IN ADVANCE
When you rent a car we suggest you rent from Alamo, National, or Enterprise. They have convenient locations near the airports and are represented LOCALLY out of one office just 5 Minutes from the Villa in Uvita.
놓치면 후회하는 장소/활동
Farmers Market in Uvita is a must!
The best fruits, vegetables, and lots more! Take a right (if you are heading South) before Maracuyo Restaurant on Saturday mornings.

If you ever have a problem with a Costa Rican due to what you consider poor service....NEVER......raise your voice. They will immediately shut down and will not attempt to resolve the situation. The best approach is to let them know you are unhappy and discuss what it will take to resolve the problem.
준비물
Sport Sandals are a great idea
Hot weather here is VERY overstated. Typically the temp YEAR ROUND hovers around 86-87 degrees with a light breeze so shorts and T-shirts make the most sense. If you are planning on doing any adventure activities a sport sandal is a great idea. I am not talking about a pair of flip flops.......try spending a few bucks and get something sturdy with some support. In general, the country is very casual so the expectation of getting dressed up at all is pretty much applicable to evening activities and is still not very common.
준비물
Casual and comfortable is pretty much the rule
When you pack for the Southern Pacific Zone..consider... shorts/Skirt and light shirts....pack a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, and bug spray..leave your loafers and button-down shirts (and Gucci bags) at home! During the rainy season bring a light raincoat!
I still have not figured it out but in the 7 years I have lived here ....biting insects are NOT very common here. Some guests disagree but in general, they are not a problem.
