Uvita vacation rentals

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.

Loved the home, loved the hosts. Beautiful and peaceful with amazing views of the coast and surrounding mountains. Would definitely stay here again next time.

This place! Oh my goodness. Mountain paradise. Toucans and monkeys and butterflies and flowers…nature everywhere. Didn’t miss the air conditioning, house is well ventilated and actually found the transition from outside to inside so much better without the jarring cold. Slept so well. Our 8 year old was so stoked on the pool and bunk beds. It was a dream. It’s the kind of place you should stay more than 2 days…would have spent our entire vacay here had we known. The beaches the restaurants the wellness offerings the community…so wonderful, top notch. Will return asap.

The house was perfect and private. The outdoor patio and pool area was lovely and refreshing to come back to at the of the day. The kitchen was beautiful and very well provisioned. The beds were very comfortable. The house was spotless! Nancy was very responsive and helpful!

Beautiful and spacious Unit just as described. You can walk to nearby restaurants! We absolutely enjoyed our stay here!

Phenomenal property, beautiful, private, secure. We spent a lot of time in the great pool. Well appointed with every we needed. Expensive by Costa Rican standards but well worth it!

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was beautiful and peaceful. It was exactly as pictured in the photos, which made arriving feel even more exciting. The highlight was definitely the infinity pool, which offered breathtaking views and the perfect place to relax. Communication with Cindy was smooth and easy from the very beginning. I highly recommend this stay and can’t wait to come back!

Excellent option. Place is like new. How is very responsive.

We found the location great: a small convenience store close by, good Mexican restaurant two blocks and beach four blocks away. Further: view restaurants 15-20’ in both directions; life-changing sanctuaries (Alturas) and wildlife preserves (Sierpe! Playa Tortuga!) 30-60’. Variety of surfing beaches from a walk to a drive away. Great couple renting boards right at the beach entrance so no need to carry them home. We loved the outdoor shower and especially the pool, heaven on a hot day or after a warm walk or hike. We loved taking an early morning “nature walk” to see monkeys and birds as they wake and look for breakfast. Real treats: Cherrie’s Tanagers, Morpho butterflies and especially the Howlers coming through the corridor next door at 4:45am. Tropical thunderstorms with frogs calling, enjoyed from the shelter of the terrace with lightning all around, rain splashing in the pool. The local Mercado with fabulous yogurt and smoothies, fruit and bread, Wed/Sat. House a sanctuary!

Where do I possibly start my summation of this paradise? I'm writing this now while on the plane home. Reliving my experience at Chris & Kristen's propery gives me a smile on my face even when I must return home. The personal touch stood out in a magnificent way. The knowledge of the country, the region, the local places. I felt like I was the only person on their property to care for during my stay. After a rain storm, late at night... I was treated to a tour when the vegetation was at its glory. The sounds, scenery, plant life, and different species of life were amazing. The carefully planned out grounds are a treasure... And constantly being upgraded and cared for everyday. The Villa was awesome. Had everything needed. Beautifully air conditioned, and kept. Bed comfortable, great size refrigerator, and perfectly configured stove. The view from my Villa was incredible, to say the least. My new friends will see me again. Their striving for my comfort was unmatched! TY

Stuart’s place was an ideal location for a private and peaceful getaway. The property itself had great amenities - especially the pool and the surrounding landscape. It was centrally located to bars, restaurants and beaches in Uvita and two neighboring towns - but far enough away to feel like we were in the middle of the jungle. Stuart was a great host. His place definitely made our vacation!

Truly a stunning home in a very quiet, upscale cul-de-sac community. Views were breathtaking, and the home well-equipped for lazy days without big agendas. Dominical is cute and inviting, with plenty to eat and a solid infrastructure for booking adventures of multiple varieties. Sensitive travelers might want to be advised that power and water outages are part of the realities of living in such a gorgeous, remote location. Mattresses are quite firm, with the loft bed probably best suited to a child or other floor-friendly individual. Kitchen was not particularly well-appointed, so bring oil/butter and perhaps even a favorite chef's knife if you plan to cook in. Local farmer's markets do make this an appealing option, although local restaurants were generally quite decent, even coming from NYC. Above all, this is a truly impressive holiday experience, mainly for the incredible views from all floors and the abundance of wildlife right in your own back-yard. Highly recommended.

This was an amazing experience! The villa was well equipped and very beautiful. The location was amazing as well, in the middle of nature but still close (less than 10min drive) to Uvita itself. We also saw tucans and monkeys from our balcony. We would defenitily recommend this!

Perfect location for easy access to the beach entrance where surfing is best. Also right next to what ended up being our favorite restaurant. Beautiful/best part of the town in my opinion. Eric was super responsive. Beautiful property, newly redone. 100% recommend.

Incredibly good stay, definitely recommend! Will come back on future occasions!

This is nice property at the end of a court in a quiet neighborhood. Forest was great to work with. He met us in person and also gave us diverse list of fantastic restaurants to experience which was a nice touch. We recommend this place.
