Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Bahía Ballena

Incredible place with amazing nature surroundings. Just like the pictures there's lots to see and explore and Zuray is a great host!

The stay was just great. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the time. Above all, we also liked the pool very much and it was a great refreshment after the long and warm days. Desire was always available and very helpful. Kind regards Laura & Martin

This was our first time in Costa Rica and we loved everything about this home. Be mindful you will need 4x4 because these mountains and roads are no joke. The house was absolutely beautiful, we loved having the bedrooms closed off and having the air conditioner (and bug free) and then having the living space and kitchen being open to the outside and the pool. You really do become one with nature in this home, so if you do not like bugs or insects, Costa Rica is not for you. I actually found it soothing listening to the lizards on the walls and watching them eat the other little bugs. My husband and I were able to enjoy horseback riding and a boat tour through the jungle thanks to the help of Loren, he made everything so easy for us and was always available. We got lost trying to find the house the first time after Loren showed us, but once you learn the mountain, it became easy. With the craziness of the US right now, it felt good to disconnect.

We loved our stay here, wish we could have stayed for longer. The setting is ideal, the mesh screen walls make you feel like you’re camping out in the jungle but with all the creature comforts of being ‘at home’. Wouter is a great host, friendly, kind & helpful & even gave us a lift down to the beach. If you haven’t got a car it’s still doable, Uber works here and Wouter also gave us taxi nos. So don’t worry if you’ve not got wheels, this is still a perfect option!

We really enjoyed it as a family. Everything was to our complete satisfaction.

We had a fantastic stay at Casa Colibri! The house is beautiful, well-equipped, and perfectly located—close to everything in Uvita, yet quiet and peaceful. The check-in process was smooth, and communication with the host was excellent throughout. Everything was clean and comfortable, and we really appreciated the small details—especially the box of LEGO, which our kids absolutely loved. It made them feel right at home and kept them happily entertained. Highly recommended—we’d love to return in the future. Thank you for everything, and Pura Vida!

This place was simply magnificent, with an attentive, caring host that was always there to make our stay fabulous. Carlos goes above and beyond. From the first message he sent to seeing us off when we checked out. It makes a difference. He messaged us to be sure we knew the pack of capuchin monkeys were passing through. And he always had helpful advice to our questions. Casa Harmony was everything we needed, including falling asleep to rain and waking to remarkable bird songs and insects. So grateful to be there 12 days, living Pura Vida.

We had a wonderful stay at Angela’s “casita”. It was the perfect location, situated in the jungles of the Osa, but close enough to amenities that it wasn’t “too far”. The home had a perfect two bedroom layout, both with private bathrooms. I loved the grounds and pool. I also liked to be in the same compound as Angela’s family, helping me feel that extra sense of security and hospitality. We will be back for sure for more fun!

This place is truly special. the level of isolation in the forest is really something and hiking down to the lost pools was such fun. My kids loved the pool and the kitchen area has everything you need.

It's a very nice place, fully equipped so you don't need anything and you feel right at home, the place was very clean and easy to find. I was able to take my whole family and my pets and everyone felt comfortable. In addition, the host helped me a lot by letting me in a little earlier than check-in

Incredible views and surroundings. The sounds of the jungle were AMAZING! Everything was so clean and pristine with nice furnishings and bedding! We loved our experience and would stay again when traveling to Uvita!

Fantastic stay! The pictures don’t do it justice. The pool, the interior, the views, and the vibe are all better than I expected. Joe is extremely friendly and responsive. I even requested to boost the internet speed as I run a remote business. Joe happily accepted, and the internet speed nearly doubled. It’s been one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve had. Come check this place out already.

We had a great time at the house my wife, my two kids and I. It felt very nice and peaceful to come back there after a day at the beach or on the trails. The view and surroundings are amazing. A lot of birds around and passing by including toucan and red parrots which always made the moment memorable and extraordinary. House is slightly remote but easily accessible with any 4x4. FYI the power supply is a bit unstable in case of heavy rains.

We loved the place, the house is very well equipped, everything is very close The pool to end the day was perfect

It was a nice place to stay! Really enjoy it

An excellent option to rest and have a relaxing experience. Everything was perfect. The service was very good, Helmes and his wife were helpful at all times. Communication was almost immediate. 10/10

This jungle paradise is special. You’re truly nestled within nature and you’ll never forget the visits from the monkeys. The property overall is beautiful with a view of the jungle/ocean in the distance and it’s only a couple of minutes to get down to the main road. I’d highly recommend this place for a one of a kind stay in Uvita!

Eddie’s place is a real gem. Incredible privacy and views, well appointed and comfortable home. The kitchen comes very well equipped and the beds are comfortable. Small details make his place extra wonderful. High quality linens, blankets, beautifully manicured garden and lawn. Henry, the groundskeeper is lovely. My children had so much fun playing hide and seek on the generous property and I loved waking up before sunrise, sitting on the deck and listening to a million birds beautifully singing through day break. My kids said they loved the home and want to come back!!

Wonderful! We would definitely return. This place is at the end of a dead end road so it is very private and serene. We are family of 8 with children and the pool is awesome. Found the place just as the pictures and descriptions are listed. We love nature and birds and were not disappointed. This is the dry season so the road in was fine. I believe we could have made the drive without 4x4. It does take a minimum of twelve minutes to reach the casa from the paved highway. The place was not booked much this month and Suzanne offered to let us stay longer for a discount but we had to get home but thank you anyway. The electricity went off for a couple hours one day and the internet went out a couple of times but we have been to Costa Rica three times and have come to expect a little of that. Go ahead and book this property and you will not be disappointed.

The place is a dream…. No other words needed! We bought everything we needed and didn’t leave the place for 4 days straight! I absolutely recommend 🙏❤️

Really enjoyed my stay here I will be back great hosts and the space is very comfy , And peaceful

Wonderful place with a delightful pool for the end of the day to relax in. Terrific restaurants in area. Bird watching from back porch. Easy access to beaches and area overall. Very helpful staff-Jeremy in particular. Highly recommended.

Mrs. Graciela from the beginning was Super communicative and from the entrance she was always very attentive to us. The place was not as expected, it was even better, impeccable in cleanliness and with absolutely all the amenities that are required as well as the basic things for entertainment such as tv, wifi, and in my opinion the most beautiful was the terrace that allows being in direct contact with nature, the proximity also with visiting points such as beaches, waterfalls and national parks make it definitely a great option to stay a few nights of rest. We will definitely stay with her again, WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND her STAY.

We spent 9 days at RSA, a truly unique and memorable time. The property is beautiful and buzzing with life. Being in the misty clouds felt surreal. We saw 100s of hummingbirds and many other birds, toads, insects, and butterflies. The variety of flowers and plants in the garden is amazing. Hiking the “puma trail” was like another world, with dense moss covered trees and hanging vines. We highly recommend touring the property with Fabian - so kind/knowledgeable/passionate. Jan and the caretaker family are also SO helpful and considerate. The home was sparkling clean. There is a huge library of books. The beds are comfortable. The coffee harvested on site is delicious! Mornings were especially lovely. A few things: a 4x4 with good clearance and a confident driver are a MUST as the road is quite steep and rocky; 2 of the 3 access roads were closed, so local attractions and amenities were hard to visit/further than expected; for kids under 5, the trails are too steep/muddy. Thank you! ?
