Featured Costa Rica Vacation Rentals

Sublime maison dans la jungle. Piscine chaude. De l’espace. Cuisine équipée. Top !

The place was very nice; it was clean, modern and well equipped. There were a couple of things to improve: 1. The house was not ready on time for the check in. 2. The A/C in one of the rooms was not working properly. 3. Around the pool it was very slippery. 4. The fridge was not cooling very well. 5. We had no water during the check out morning and couldn’t take a shower or do the dishes. In general terms, the host was very friendly and responsive. However, with the issues we encountered, they just acknowledged them but didn’t offer any solution on the spot. Again, the house was very nice tho.

The nearest beach (walking distance) is the Marino Ballena National Park beach. There will be an admission fee.

This is an absolutely stunning house. The location is incredible. Even if there are other houses nearby, you still feel as if you are in the middle of the jungle.

I think we were the first to stay there and that we had some first tenant issues. The utensils in the kitchen were worn out and dirty. The shower drains didn’t drain so you have water to your ankles in a minute. The power went out a few times, which is normal, but the property management also did not respond about it until the next day when we tried to respond to it.

If you are coming from San Jose, pay attention to the fact that they charge you an extra US$50 if you check in late, and the time you have to get from SJO to here is not enough to meet their late check-in cutoff.

It’s a great place with teething issues. Once those are ironed out, I am certain it will be much better.

Somos ticos disfrutando de nuestro país y el alojamiento fue perfecto para eso. Esta muy bien equipado, sobre todo la cocina. La cama deliciosa igual que la ducha, la piscina también. Un ambiente muy privado a pesar de que está en la orilla de la calle por lo que si se puede escuchar ruido pero no se ve nada hacia adentro. Está muy cerca tanto de las playas, el comercio y el Parque Nacional Marino Ballena. Para tomar en cuenta, la cocina es de gas por lo que el horno igualmente funciona a gas. El camino es bastante empedrado, y hay 2 entradas, Waze por alguna razón envía para entrar por la peor de las dos, por lo que decidimos utilizar la Escuela Playa Hermosa como punto de referencia para que nos enviara por el camino que tiene una parte con asfalto, ya cuando se sube por ahí ya Waze redirecciona bien al alojamiento. Disfrutamos muchísimo de la fruta fresca y el café que nos dejaron. Volveríamos sin dudarlo.

We loved the house from the moment we arrived.
It is centrally located in Uvita. You can walk to the beach and many eating establishments. We loved Carlitos. Awesome margaritas! Strong and delicious! Also the Le French Café. Lovely breakfasts and lunches. And I believe soon they will be opened for dinner! Check out Gusto up the mountain for sunset and great Italian food. The couple moved from near Tuscany. Home made pastas.
Now back to the accommodations. We absolutely loved the pool. It was just cool enough to cool off and warm enough to walk right in. My favourite spot to hangout. We weren’t there for vacation, my husband was working every day. It has a great outdoor space for him to work and excellent wifi
Things they need to do better. The kitchen needs a few more utensils, but in all fairness this was a brand new Airbnb and it is still getting established. We felt safe and enjoyed the privacy of this house. When you book here you will love your stay. We did!!!

El no tener AC es realmente un inconveniente, a pesar de tener bastantes ventiladores no ayuda con el calor y humedad del lugar. Los grifos y las duchas están bastante viejos y sucios, ninguno de los servicios sanitarios funcionaban bien, salieron cucarachas de la parrilla, las camas necesitan mejor presentación y más almohadas, el lugar donde está la TV no tiene sentido alguno pues solo se puede ver de pie frente a esta y el internet es sumamente lento.

We stayed for a little over 4 weeks and very much enjoyed the experience. The house seemed larger than it appeared in the photos we looked at prior to arrival. Everything is modern and the kitchen was better than the average rental house – we prepared many meals while there. We enjoyed walking down to the waterfall for a swim every morning. The sunsets were absolutely spectacular. We paid extra for the cleaning crew to come several times during our stay – wonderful people who do great work, and the price was very reasonable. You do need 4WD, but it’s fun – you feel like you’re on a bit of an adventure😀 We encountered a few minor maintenance issues while we were there – the property management team always responded promptly and the people they sent to the house were friendly and professional. Regarding phone and internet service, the cell signal we got at the house was 1 bar of 3G, and the house has a fast fiber optic and wifi connection, however, the fiber optic connection was not always working (the fiber optic company’s issue, not the property managers). This is perfectly fine for a relaxed vacation but may be a challenge for anyone needing to work or join virtual meetings. We experienced no crime and always felt safe – in fact, the people we interacted with were uniformly friendly and welcoming. We had a wonderful experience and highly recommend.this property.

This vacation home was beyond my expectations. The home is beautiful, spacious and comfortable. I loved the view to the ocean and the backyard is the natural habitat of Costa Rica. Loved the decoration throughout the home. Pool is amazing and if you take a dip in the pool at night you can stargaze and admire the sounds of Mother Nature. Overall, would recommend to friends and family.

This home, the views, and the wildlife interactions create an experience like no other. The home offers comfort in every aspect , and Ifeatures a modern design with high end features throughout. You are actually in the jungle and can hear the toucans sing, see the macaws fly, and watch the monkeys play. It is beyond amazing. The home is so perfect, we found it hard to leave and view the rest of Manuel Antonio. We will definitely make it an annual destination.
