La ubicación del lugar es hermososimo, vale totalmente la pena ir y recomendaría el espacio a cualquier persona, sin embargo aclararia un par de cosas. 1.las fotos dan la impresión de que el lugar es de una planta y muy amplio esto no es así, los cuartos sala comedor y cocina están en un segundo piso (y el espacio de nuevo es bellisimo!) pero para llegar a la piscina hay que bajar gradas. el espacio de la piscina es hermosisimo pero sigue bajo construcción esa área visualmente no fue agradable. Finalmente la puerta del balcon que da a la sala y comedor amanecía inundada y causo un par de accidentes.
Igual con todo esto claro recomendaría el espacio 100%

Thank you so much, Andrea, for the lovely review and for your kind 100% recommendation despite the concerns you raised — that truly means a lot to us! We’re so glad the beauty of Honu Iki and its location in Uvita left such a positive impression. We appreciate your feedback about the layout and want to reassure future guests that our listing does note that stairs are required throughout the property, including access to the pool area — we will look at how we can make this even clearer in our photos and description to better set expectations upon arrival. Regarding the pool area, we want to assure future guests that it has been fully completed and is in excellent condition — we’re not entirely sure what may have given a different impression during your visit but we’d love to follow up on that directly. We also sincerely apologize for the balcony door flooding issue and any accidents it caused — that is something we have since addressed to ensure future guests have a completely safe and seamless experience. Our goal is always a 5-star experience for every guest and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and deliver just that! Thank you for choosing Osa Property Management / Costa Rica Las Villas — we’d love to welcome you back, whether it’s to Honu Iki again or to any of our 70+ properties across Costa Rica!

We really enjoyed our stay here! Our favorite part was sitting on the balcony where we saw howler monkey’s & hummingbirds.

Setting of the house is marvellous, in the middle of the jungle. Saw howler monkeys while sitting in the pool. Interior is a bit run down, but the general atmosphere and good communication with host make up for it! Enjoyed our stay!
Be aware that you need a 4×4 car to get there.

Zuerst das Positive, der Pool und die Lage waren sehr schön.
Die Wohnung hat Potenzial, ist den Preis aber definitiv nicht wert.
Vor unserer Ankunft wurde so viel Insektenspray gesprüht, dass wir die Wohnung nicht betreten konnten und 2 Stunden lüften mussten und anschließend alle Toten Tiere aufsammeln durften. Im Bad ist schwarzer Schimmel an der Decke, bei Ankunft hatten wir genau eine Gabel zur Verfügung und die Kommunikation ist eher schwierig zu bewerten.. Morgens kam jemand um den Pool zu säubern, darüber wurden wir vorher nicht informiert, plötzlich stand jemand am Pool. Alle Fliegengitter hatten Löcher.
Der Aufenthalt war okay aber den Preis einfach nicht wert.

Thank you, Laura, for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the pool and the location.

We value the opportunity to host you and hope to provide a better stay in the future.

Beautiful property right in the jungle! This comes with some bugs we weren’t used to but you quickly adapt and is to be expected 😉 Having the pool was great to cool off. Very secluded. We had hot water the whole time and no issues. The dryer broke and the team fixed it within a few hours for us! The drive up for sure needs a good 4x4 as they suggest, it’s bumpy! Such a beautiful stay. We would stay again if we return.

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour de deux nuits dans la villa, la maison est située sur les hauteurs de uvita dans un coin de jungle, absolument splendide
Un dépaysement total, on y entend les singes hurleurs le matin et nous avons même eu la visite de deux Toucans
Le logement est bien équipé, la Laverie est un vrai plus surtout en fin de séjour
Je mettrai juste un point négatif sur l’aspect « baby friendly » si je voulais avoir un lit bébé, on me demandait 50 $ de plus, je trouve cela dommage
Dans l’ensemble, une très belle expérience

Really needed 4x4 to get there. The jungle canopies are full of Howlers, birds, flowers. Wow even the alpha Male showed Himself and little one's too.

Thank you very much, Jim, for your great review and for taking the time to write it. We’re so glad you enjoyed the incredible wildlife and natural surroundings during your stay.

We had a great time here. The house is located in the forest, you need 4x4 to reach it but totally worth the ride. It feels private, surrounded by trees, birds, monkeys and other animals. The house was well-cleaned when we arrived, we enjoyed the pool on the ground floor. The communication with the host was excellent, they responded promptly. There was a 6 hours electricity and water cut during our 6 days stay, also wifi was not working for more than 24 hours. Nothing crazy but be prepared it can happen. The host did everything to fix this with utility companies. We would highly recommend this place and hope to come back one day.

Thank you so much, Csilla, for the wonderful 5-star review and for your patience and understanding during your stay! We're thrilled to hear that Honu Iki's forest setting, the wildlife, the pool, and our team's communication all made for such a memorable experience. We sincerely apologize for the electricity, water, and WiFi interruptions you encountered — that is never the experience we want for our guests. We're happy to share that Honu Iki has since been upgraded to Starlink internet with battery backup, so future connectivity issues are a thing of the past! Our team will continue working closely with utility companies to minimize any further disruptions as well. As a token of our appreciation for your grace and understanding, we'd love to welcome you back and offer you a special discount on your next stay — because we know Honu Iki at its best is truly something special. Thank you for choosing Osa Property Management / Costa Rica Las Villas — we hope to see you back in Uvita very soon!

Beautiful, private setting just as the pictures show, nice accommodations, responsive management with the one issue we had.
Note 4w drive climb last 8 tenths of a mile, fun but real. And be prepared during cicada season they are deafening

Thank you so much, Jim, for the wonderful 5-star review! We're so glad Honu Iki delivered that beautiful private setting just as pictured and that our team was responsive in addressing the issue you encountered during your stay. We also love your adventurous spirit about the 4-wheel drive climb — you're absolutely right that it's real and it's an adventure in itself, but the reward at the top is well worth it! And thank you for the fun heads-up about cicada season — that is genuinely helpful and colorful advice for future guests planning their visit to Uvita! 🦗 Thank you for choosing Osa Property Management / Costa Rica Las Villas — we'd love to welcome you back, whether it's to Honu Iki again or to any of our 70+ properties across Costa Rica!

Die Unterkunft war etwas schwer zu finden, und man benötigt auf jeden Fall ein Allradfahrzeug, um dorthin zu gelangen, da es sonst keine andere Möglichkeit gibt. Ansonsten war die Unterkunft in Ordnung und für den Zweck völlig ausreichend.

Ein schönes kleines Haus, etwas ausserhalb gefühlt mitten im Urwald!
Ein Highlight war für uns der blitzsaubere Pool, gross genug, um ein paar Züge zu schwimmen und angenehm für eine leichte Abkühlung!
Die Strasse ist wirklich nur für Allradfahrzeuge, aber auch nach einem recht starken Regen gut befahrbar.
Wir würden hier wieder buchen!

La casa tiene una ubicación muy conveniente, cerca del centro de Uvita. La comunicación y respuesta de la persona anfitriona fue excelente. El lugar es tranquilo y tiene una vista muy bonita a un bosque que es visitado por monos y pájaros. La casa no es muy amplia y el equipamiento de la cocina es elemental/pobre. La relación precio-calidad no es buena. La decoración muy básica, la piscina es totalmente independiente de la casa (no está integrada) y se comunica por unas gradas externas. En la zona de la piscina no hay baño ni un lugar para tomar agua, tampoco una mesa que permita consumir alimentos o bebidas.

Alberto - We're sorry you didn't have an enjoyable time at this wonderful home. The swimming pool is accessible from the first floor of the property and there are chairs and tables there. You're correct about there not being bathroom next to the swimming pool. During your stay you made no mention of any inconveniences and, in fact, thanked us for bringing you a kitchen amenity you requested. We wish you the best in the future. Pura vida!

Maison superbe pour un vrai dépaysement, rien à dire sur la réactivité, tout était top mis à part le fait qu’on ait pas trouvé facilement de nuit, mais c’est de notre faute car nous avions pas de 4x4 et c’est indispensable

We experienced multiple maintenance and cleanliness issues upon arrival, which were reported immediately. While the property management team was responsive, many issues persisted throughout the stay, resulting in repeated disruptions. Kitchen appliances were difficult to use, plumbing issues occurred in multiple bathrooms, and overall cleanliness fell below expectations. Power and water outages occurred multiple times, including a prolonged outage during our only full day at the home, which ultimately forced us to leave. Due to the ongoing interruptions, we declined further service visits.

Meine Frau und ich hatten einen fantastischen Aufenthalt in der Villa. Der Unterkunft und der Pool waren sauber. Der Pool hatte eine sehr angenehme Temperatur. Sehr gut ausgestattete Küche und sehr hochwertige Einrichtung. Das absolute Highlight ist die Lage, die Aussicht und die Tierwelt in der direkten Umgebung. Wir haben verschiedene Affenarten, Nasenbären, Aras, Toucans, Agoutis gesehen und wurden von Brüllaffen an einem Morgen direkt im Baum neben uns geweckt - wirklich magisch. Wir haben die Unterkunft so sehr genossen, dass wir gar nicht mehr viel in Uivta unternommen haben, denn durch die Lage fühlt man sich wie im Nationalpark.
Für den Weg ist zu 100% ein 4x4 notwendig. Aber der Weg ist absolut machbar.

Excellent 30th Birthday Trip
I went here for my 30th birthday with three other friends and thoroughly enjoyed the stay. The house was extremely comfortable and we enjoyed sitting on the porch every morning enjoying coffee watching the wildlife. We saw macaws, monkeys, and many more critters. Check in and check out was extremely easy and the host was great at communication. Ten out of ten stay and we would love to come back some day!

Overall the place is a good place to crash. Loved the green surroundings. Had some cleanliness issues when we got there, but they came and took care of them very quickly. Management company is really responsive. My major concern with this listing is the water. Power in Costa Rica can go out - it comes with having lots of greenery and power lines. The problem is the water is run off a pump - no power, no water. That's a problem when the power is not always available. Gravity fed systems in other places I've stayed solve this problem. I can live without the lights, but it's a little harder to accommodate not having water. Otherwise enjoyed the place. If the power would have stayed on, I wouldn't even have noticed! Saw wildlife and enjoyed the area a lot.
Response:
Thank you for your review and, more importantly, your patience. We completely understand your frustration with the water pump issue. Unfortunately, the road the house is located on all use pumps - the community is in talks with the local water committee to try and get a dedicated, gravity fed system. You have rented other homes from us before and as always, we appreciate your trust with us and we're sorry we let you down with this property. We'd love to Host you again, so please feel free to contact us anytime! Pura Vida ! Osa Property Management

We took a holiday of two weeks to run away from stress, the house and location were exactly what we need . Reclusive, in the middle of the jungle with a very relaxing pool and still close to the town and the beeches, but an 4×4 vehicle is requiered.We were visited by monkeys,copaibas and white nose coati's, a lot of birds it felt like having a our personal nature park.The house and pool are just like in the pictures. And the personal from Osa help us with everything we need it..from suggestions and links for reserving excursions, to things that we need it. They were very prompt answering to our requests. For us was like a home away from home. We will always be happy to return to Casita Honu Iki. Thank you for an unforgetable holyday. Pura vida!!!!

Superbe maison . Un havre de paix et une vue magnifique sur la jungle. On y a vu des toucans, des coatis, des agoutis…
Environnement calme et paisible, on y entend les sons de la nature.
L’omniprésence des vitres est un vrai plus.
La maison était hyper propre.
Attention toutefois à ne pas négliger l’arrivée au Air bnb : la route est une piste rocailleuse avec une très forte pente, avec des virages importants. N’envisagez pas d’y arriver de nuit et 4x4 obligatoire bien sûr, mais malgré ça, la route est difficile.
Mais on l’oublie vite une fois sur la terrasse 😉.

El lugar está fantástico, muy cómodo, limpio y agradable. Un lugar para disfrutar con la naturaleza, incluso nos tocó ver una familia de monos desde la alberca así como otros animales. Toda una experiencia completa de CR 🤩

Honu Iki Casita ofrece una experiencia auténtica de conexión con la naturaleza. La propiedad es luminosa, ventilada y cómoda, ideal para descansar y desconectarse. La piscina tiene una vista preciosa, y dormir con los sonidos del bosque fue un verdadero privilegio. Durante la estancia vimos y escuchamos monos, además de guatusas y muchas aves. La ubicación es estratégica, cercana a playas y parques nacionales (Marino Ballena y Manuel Antonio entre otros), con excelente oferta gastronómica, y permite escaparse de compras a Golfito o Paso Canoas con solo 2 h de manejo. Además, el entorno transmite paz y armonía, ideal para quienes buscan una pausa del ruido citadino. El equipo anfitrión fue atento y profesional en todo momento, con comunicación clara, seguimiento oportuno y actitud proactiva. Como anfitrión, valoro profundamente ese nivel de dedicación. El detalle de bienvenida con frutas frescas fue un gesto sencillo pero muy apreciado. Volvería sin dudarlo. ¡Pura vida!

The home is very remote and directions were not completely accurate. I’d recommend arriving in daylight to avoid losing your way. Better landmarks would have been helpful as the ones identified in the guide were never located. The home is stunning, surrounded by nature with monkies and birds galore. The pool is also wonderful. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to immerse themselves in nature.

We had a fantastic stay. The house is beautiful and comfortable. We loved sitting on the balcony looking out at the trees. We saw beautiful birds, howler monkeys and white faced monkeys. The communication was great. We had no complaints. We highly recommend this place for your trip to Uvita.
