What a beautiful home!!
This place has everything we needed, plus more!
When we walked up and saw the pool, with complete privacy….
We were ready to move in!
All of the amenities are here, including a washer and dryer.
This home has been built with comfort in mind.
The bed is extremely comfortable, and lots of storage space to unpack and relax.
You definitely need a 4×4 to get here, but we have found that is pretty much the norm for everywhere in Costa Rica.
Absolutely appreciated the host having beach chairs and a cooler there for our use. This has been our 5th place this summer and this is the first time there has been the chairs and cooler. Came in handy!
Suggestion would be to put down some shale rock in the area where you park, as we had ALOT of rain, and it was all mud and water.
We would 100% recommend this place to anyone coming to the Ojochal/Uvita area, and if were ever to venture back this way, we would absolutely book again 🙂
You made a week of our honeymoon very special.

This place was so amazing to stay in. The best part for us was that the whole time you can hear the bugs, birds, and rain outside which adds to the whole experience. The swimming pool was so nice to swim in and the whole house was great.

The house has everything you need during your travel: washing machine, AC, pool.
I recommend a car that is “higher” to reach the house as some rocks on the road are bigger and can scratch the car.
The pool was a nice refreshment, only the neighbouring German shepherd dog came once down into the property and started barking at us so we did not feel comfortable on going inside the pool again.
I don’t know if the dog is always there.

El alojamiento está bien y la piscina excelente, muy privado el lugar, como puntos de mejora es cierto lo del perro, ladra bastante y se escucha muy cerca, no queda claro si este puede o no llegar a la zona donde uno está y el baño le falta privacidad, puedo ver desde la cocina el sanitario y no es hermético entonces comparte olores con el cuarto

Thank you for the feedback Jose. We have notified the Owner of your report about the bathroom door and the dog. We are very sorry about that. We'd love to Host you again, perhaps at one of our other ~75 properties we manage, while those issues are resolved. Thank you again. Pura Vida! Osa Property Management

Diese Unterkunft war unser absoluter Favorit. Einfach ein Traum inmitten der Natur. Gleich in der Nähe hat es auch schöne Pubs und Restaurants. Auch Ojochal/Uvita hat uns am Besten gefallen während unserer Reise durch Costa Rica. Gern wären wir noch viel länger geblieben. ☺️

Osa property management were amazing. Checked on us regularly and so responsive to text messaging.
The house was well equipped with yoga mat, cooler, beach chairs. Pool was so clean and amazing to have after a hot day or first thing in the morning.
Kitchen was also clean and well equipped.
Although you can’t see the neighbours, you can hear them and the dogs were annoying. Osa was great and offered to try to get a hold of neighbours.
AC is only available jn the bedroom; the living and kitchen area are screen closure only, no walls. It can get quite hot in there.
The road is really rough but you get used to it after a couple days.
I would definitely return here.
Great restaurants and excellent grocery store at the entrance of the area and very competitive prices to other grocery shops.
Our favorite spots were Playa Hermosa, Cascada El Pavón, and Parque National Marino Ballena is a must see.

Exactly as advertised!!
We had a wonderful week and loved the abundance of birds and wildlife enjoyed throughout the stay.
An extremely comfortable bed and space with all the amenities that were promised.
Great beaches in the area and we felt extremely safe everywhere we traveled.
Can't wait for a return visit!!
Beautiful and Peaceful
The property was well maintained and clean. Came with everything needed for the stay. Very comfortable accommodations! Would highly recommend staying at this property. One issue was difficulty in finding the property. We drove around for an hour in the area trying to find it. Would recommend better lighting and/or signage to avoid this in the future.

Beautiful place! It’s very small but was enough for two people. We used the dipping pool a lot. Host was very responsive. When we arrived the fridge was not working properly, they sent someone to check it/fix it in 10 minutes! Would recommend. Guests from Wisconsin, USA
Endroit parfait
La villa est située dans un endroit calme et intime. Super bien équipée. Nous avons eu un problème avec internet mais Nick à réagi rapidement pour régler le problème. Je conseil fortement cet endroit

The place is located on a mountain. It is accessible with a 4x4 vehicle. The cabin appears to be a guest space connected to a neighboring property (via stairs). I recommend avoiding bringing pets, as there are large dogs from the adjacent property that roam freely and became agitated by our pet. I suggest avoiding walking around the area (one day, we had to assist a woman because a German Shepherd dog was blocking her way). The cabin itself is comfortable.
Response:
Hola Cindy! We are sorry you didn't enjoy the property as much as pervious Guests have (all 5-stars until your review). It is an independent house/property from any other property. We've had plenty of Guests bring their pet without incident - next time please let us know if you are experiencing any issues as you didn't say anything. We wish you well in your future travels!

This rustic cabin met our needs. There were a few items that are being addressed by OSA Management to make the next guests more comfortable. Very responsive on fixing internet and replacing the TV that was not working in arrival.
The location would be difficult to locate at night, suggest arrival during daytime hours. The team was very communicative. There is a sound monitor at the house, it went off frequently during heavy rains… it was a bit annoying as we weren’t at the cabin or was while we were sleeping.
Amazing stay!

Alles nötige war im Haus vorhanden und in gutem Zustand. Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt. Einmal hatten wir ein Problem, was durch Osa nicht gelöst werden konnte weil es die ganze Gegend betraf. Aber Osa hat sich sofort gekümmert und überraschend aufmerksam reagiert.

I felt right at home. The village, nestled in the heart of the forest, was surrounded by trees and birds. We slept in an extremely quiet place, serenaded by the lovely sound of a river. The place looked just like the pictures everything was in perfect condition, pristinely clean, and the host was incredibly helpful, providing us with plenty of recommendations. I hope to return again and wholeheartedly recommend this place without hesitation.

The location is beautiful! The accommodations were exactly as described & we loved the privacy of our pool! Happy with on-site laundry! We were disappointed in the lack of wildlife - think there weren’t enough trees for monkeys/sloths. Hosts were very responsive to any issues we ran into. Overall a very relaxing visit. Recommend!
Response:
Thanks for the 5-star review Carol!
In regards to seeing a sloth - those are VERY rare and most easily seen while on nature hikes (still rare) or at the Villas Alturas Nature Center.
We'd love to Host you again soon!

We absolutely LOVED our stay. The staff was always available if we needed anything and quick to address any issues. Was the perfect place to disconnect and reconnect. Close to town but far enough away to feel at home.
