About this property

This Luxury Home is located on 3 private acres overlooking the Whale's Tail, with incredible views all around. At 2000 ft above sea level you feel on top of the world, often in the clouds, and yet only 15-20 minutes away from some of the best beaches on the Costa Ballena. With the added security of being within a gated community this is one of the most sought after locations on the Costa Rica Pacific coast.

There are 2 master bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and both have stunning views of the Whale's Tail right from your bed!
The 3rd bedroom is at the rear with no ocean view and with a sofa-bed.

The open-concept home has a comfortable and inviting living room, and a well equipped kitchen. A long breakfast bar comfortably seats five, while the large dining area has a table for eight. In addition there is a large outdoor seating area and sunken bar at the pool which is probably where you will spend most of your time!

Enjoy the views of the Pacific Ocean and surrounding mountains while you relax in or around the pool. This is where memories are made.

Only the 2 master bedrooms have air conditioning units but there are ceiling fans throughout the home. At this altitude, the temperature is a few degrees lower than sea level and being on the ridge of the mountain, there is usually a gentle breeze. Most people living at this altitude don't even turn on their air conditioning.

The house itself is surrounded by 3 acres of private garden and cloud forest, but you will have access to the facilities of the gated community which include a tennis court, a gym, a helipad, all surrounded by 800 acres of conservation land.

Please note that 4x4 is essential to get to the house.

Also please note that on Mondays there is a garden maintenance team which comes from 7.30am to 4pm. There is also a pool maintenance company which comes for about 30 minutes every Monday usually in the morning. These weekly services are necessary to keep the grounds and pool in good condition. If you feel the gardeners are intruding too much you could politely ask them to work in another part of the large garden.

Best vacation ever!

First timers!! We enjoyed our stay very much. The pictures of the house does not do the justice. It’s so well maintained inside and out. I enjoyed walking around the house and discovering all kinds of plants. House was spotless!!! Pool is perfect, my 3 kids enjoyed it very much. To get to the house it is a hike, definitely 4x4 is needed, but I loved the ride. It’s approximately 15 min up the hill through the jungle :))) we loved it. We felt very safe. Stores are near by, plenty restaurants etc. every day we got to do a new activity. Explored so many beautiful water falls that are like 8 min from Uvita(closest town). I’m so glad we got to experience 1 day of rain here at the house!!! It was amazing. A true cloud forest, I have never experienced magic like that. We were in a cloud. We did see lizards and many different kinds of birds. We didn’t see any monkeys at the house but definitely heard them near by. Thank you Richard and John for your hospitality! Our first visit to Costa Rica was a dream!

Stunning Home in Costa Rica

My boyfriend and his two teenage sons stayed here for eleven days and we loved every single moment. I have friends who live in Uvita and they confirmed we were staying in a home which boasted the best views on that coast of Costa Rica. The photos of the house do not do it justice. It's absolutely gorgeous and we felt right at home- enough space for all of us. I love how you can let the outside in-- it's Pura Vida all the way. We saw Toucans, exotic birds and monkeys almost every day right there by the pool. The teenage boys were blown away and spent hours in the pool and said it felt "free" up here. The landscaping is also beautiful and I have plant envy with all the colorful flowers and greenery. The owner, Richard , could not have been nicer and gave us many tips on where to grocery shop, what beaches were good for surfing vs swimming and things to do. Everything was seamless. We had the best vacation. Every photo was Instagram worthy. There are no bad angles up here and the house is well stocked with cookware and spices. We loved the large kitchen and watched family movies on the huge sofa every night. Book this house. You will not regret it! And thank you Richard for letting us rent your beautiful home. It was the best vacation ever.

Gorgeous Home with incredible views!!

The property was absolutely incredible. We came with out younger kids and they had such a great time and loved the pool! We drove in during the night, which made it challenging to find the house. Was not prepared for the steep hills required to get to the property. Much of the drive is unpaved and nearly vertical.. definitely requires a 4x4 so be ready for that! Property management was very responsive and helped us navigate. Love the near by restaurant- Jolly Roger!

Amazing house with gorgeous viee

This house is amazing. I’ve stayed in a fair number of rental houses in Costa Rica but this one was the best. It’s a bit of a drive to get there and you need a 4x4 but the view is worth it! Looks onto the whale tail of Uvita beach from your private infinity pool. House is well equipped with everything - boogie boards, beach chairs and even pool inflatables. Highly recommend. I hope to be back. Thanks for having us. My children didn’t want to leave the house ever to do anything else.
