LARRY LEE, Los Angeles

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
The property was recently renovated but the dining space for breakfast would be inadequate if the hotel was more than one third full. This hotel should be advertised as a Bread and Breakfast and not a Boutique Hotel. The breakfast service was inconsistent from morning to morning. The hotel advertises dinner service cooked on site but the portions are very tiny, the menu selection is sparse, the food quality could not compare with downtown restaurants and the price is totally over the top. Most of the time that I was there, I was the guest and was able to leave the room door open for ventilation with the evening winds blowing through the room. If there were other guests at the hotel, cooling the room would be done by a floor standing fan which was very loud.

Nice and clean hotel. Rooms are fine. It is a long walk to town….25 minutes. Not 15 min as we expected. The breakfast that is included is really lacking. Some mornings just one slice of turkey, tomatoes and tiny fruit cup. I gave eggs to the cook two times so we could have eggs. Last day they said we could drop rental at airport. Not possible so we had to take a taxi from rental agency.

Not a 'hotel'; this is a hostel. Bring food!! half-hour walk to stores/restaurants; most closed on Sunday. Snacks available at 7pm, but staff leaves at 3pm; so no actual snacks. Some rooms have a fridge; not all do. No hot water for coffee. Uneven stairs: older and visually impaired people should not stay here.

Nice place - very quiet
Enjoyed our stay here for a week. We were traveling with another couple. Uka Mana has a lovely common area with couches and a large tv (which we did not watch but it is there). It was a great place to get together each day with our friends and unwind and enjoy our happy hour drinks together. The staff is incredibly nice and helpful. Yes, it is a bit of a walk into the town but the terrain is flat so an easy walk. Or a taxi is $5 - $6US. We had a small refrigerator in the room. Plenty of hot water. Wifi was accessible from our room which was really nice. Electricity goes out for a few minutes now and then - but this happens all over the island and was never an issue.

You should never expect to contact the staff. Do not book the hotel unless you can make sure you will be 100 percent satisfied with this place, or they will deducte All you have paid!!! Even you have tried to contact them by both yourself and Orbits before the reschedule deadline, there is no response at all. They won’t help you address the problem but deducte your money unreasonably.

This property is not a Hotel - it's like a bed&"breakfast" (but you don't always get breakfast) - The owner Paula is nice, however since we spent 4 nights, we could see that management is not on top of this business. Good: they provide transportation from and to the airport. It's nicely decorated. Bad: Hotel is far from the center of the town (20 minutes walk to get to the main street) The bathroom has no door, the shower has no curtain. There is no TV or radio inside the room. Sometimes no internet service and usually there is nobody at reception. Towels and bed sheets are not changed everyday. By day 2 the towels already smelled. During our stay, we got to the hotel around 5pm and nobody was at reception. We wanted to call a taxi later on to go to town but there was no internet. We went to bed and the next day we didn't see anybody and no breakfast was available. I think we were the only guests. The owner came around 11am and assured us that next day her employee would be there to take care of breakfast. Next day came - her employee was not there and there was no breakfast. If you want to enjoy Easter Island, you should book a hotel in the Center or no more than 5 minutes walk - We don't recommend this bed&breakfast

Hotel Uka Mana is a lovely, quite place. We were picked up promptly from the airport and given a brief tour of the town. The hotel was extremely clean which we appreciated. Two of the receptionist spoke very good English. No one else spoke English so be prepared. The hotel is about a 25 minute walk to town. We rented a dirt bike to motor around. It was the perfect solution for our journey into town when we wanted to eat!!

Homely little boutique
We had an excellent stay at Uka Mana. Our hosts couldn’t have been friendlier or more helpful on our whirlwind tour of the island. In particular both Claudio and Francisca helped us cram as much in as possible providing useful hints, tips and organising transport for the island. The hotel itself has a homely, quirky vibe to it. It’s in a lovely quiet spot, the main sounds coming from the elements. Breakfast is basic, but exactly what’s needed to fuel up to start a day of exploring. Thouroughly enjoyed it, and the only complaint was our trip was too short.

Good service, room not so much
The original room they assigned to us was leaking water from the ceiling. The second room we were given was a lot better. Nonetheless we could use more table or flat area to put our stuff, as well as hooks to hang our jackets, etc. Location of hotel was not ideal. It is a 25 minutes walk to town, and hotel only had sandwiches.

Nice staff.
Picked up at the airport and given a quick tour of the downtown area. Streets are not named so remembering all the turns was a bit difficult. The room was very hot, we were given a fan the next night. There are no screens on the windows so everything has to be closed to keep the mosquitoes out. Walking into town is difficult if you are not in good shape. A taxi ride is necessary for getting to and from the hotel. The receptionist is very nice and helpful, she helped us set up tours and got us in touch with a taxi driver which we used several times during our stay.

Nice, Comfortable and Quiet Hotel
We stayed at Uka Mana last week. Paula and her staff were excellent hosts. They were extremely nice and accomodating. We booked our room at the last minute and she still made it to the airport to pick us up. She even showed us around town and took us to this amazing restaurant by the beach called Tataku Vave. The house is newly constructed and has very comfortable beds and nice bathrooms with hot showers. The scenery from the house is great as well. The area is very quiet, we were able to sleep like babies there. The breakfast was basic, bread, cheese, meat, juice and coffee but it did the trick. We rented a car to see the sites and it was perfect. Great place, can't wait to come back.

L'hotel est tres loin du centre et une voiture est indispensable. Si vous rajoutez 45000 a 55000 chp au prix de la chambre, il vaut mieux pour ce prix un hotel plus au centre.

Sehr schöner Urlaubsort
Dieses Hotel hat nicht ganz meinen Ansprüchen genügt. Es gab kein warmes Wasser und das Zimmer war sauber aber ohne Fenster. Um einen längeren Urlaub dort zu verbringen würde ich eine andere Kategorie von Unterkunft wünschen
Response from Victoria on Apr 27, 2018
We regret that you did not have a pleasant stay. That is the difference between the first and second floor rooms, which you reserve has a lower value, is on the first floor, has no balcony, if you swallow lights where the sun enters naturally and with a window. We have varied rooms. It was explained to him on arrival that the hotel works taking care of our planet, with solar panels that heat the water, it takes five minutes to warm up, it hurts that maybe he has not waited for those minutes.
