Hey Reader,

We didn’t have big expectations for Uvita when we first arrived.

It was more of a stop on the way somewhere else.

A few days. Maybe a week.

That was the plan.

But pretty quickly, it turned into one of those places that just… works.

Not in an obvious way.

There isn’t loads going on.
It’s not packed with attractions.
And it doesn’t feel like somewhere you “need” to see.

But day-to-day, it felt easy.

The kind of place where:

• you’re not constantly planning
• you don’t feel rushed to do things
• and the days just settle into a rhythm

Mornings were slower.

We’d head out without much of a plan, and somehow still end up with a full day, waterfall, beach, somewhere to eat, back before it got too much.

It made us realise something we hadn’t really thought about before.

Some places are good because of what they offer.

Others are good because of how they feel to be in.

Uvita is definitely more the second.

I ended up writing out what we there is to do there, not everything, just what worked as a family.

I’ll leave it here if you’re thinking about going:

Still one of the easier places we’ve stayed.

P.S. If you’re planning travel soon, here are the things that have actually helped us this month, no fluff, just what’s been in our bags and on our screens:

• ​SafetyWing – still our go-to for long-term family coverage
• ​Airalo – eSIM that hasn’t failed us (even when buses did)
• ​Cheap car rentals on a budget – The site we always use
• ​Wise card – the one bank card we trust in South America
