After wedding getaway

We stayed here after a week of events for our wedding with a few friends and it was EXACTLY what we needed to de-stress! The house is amazing! I’ve never felt so relaxed! The house is beautifully nestled on a mountain in the rainforest overlooking the ocean. Monkeys visited us every morning, as well as other local wildlife.Licho was the perfect host and was available if we needed anything. Will definitely be returning very soon!

Total relaxation

We were a group of 8 traveling to Costa Rica for the first time, ages 23-67. This home and visit surpassed all of our expectations. It started with my first communication with Nicolas who provided me contact information to help complete our travel arrangements. They have a house manager on site who is there to assist you with anything you need. His wife Darling prepared several meals which we all enjoyed. The home is positioned on the mountain side and you are immersed in beauty with a variety of birds to include toucans visiting in the evenings and howler monkeys in the mornings. We did day trips to include a ATV tour and zip lining which Licho helped arrange and then we would come back to the home to relax and enjoy our evenings. The pictures of this beautiful home are not misleading and everyday we all woke saying how fortunate we were to have this experience and to have found this home to stay at for our vacation. Absolutely a beautiful home!

Amazing Property

This was a family trip with our 6 adult children and our 2.5 year old granddaughter. Each couple had their own suite with a bathroom. There are many areas in the house to relax and enjoy private space. We loved seeing monkeys, agouti, toucan right outside our home. The caretakers were top notch.

Fantastic House in Uvita

This house was great. We loved Uvita. It had a good view of the beach. The pool was fantastic as well as all the outdoor space. We liked having two separate living areas inside the house, one upstairs and one downstairs. We found it super convenient to the grocery store, the beach, restaurants and then a short distance to the Uvita waterfall, horseback riding and surf lessons. The on-site property manager was great with answering all our questions we had through our the stay. Super fun trip!

Jungle Paradise

The house was amazing, plenty of space for everyone. The pool and patio spaces were wonderful. We woke up to birds and butterflies daily. We got lucky and got to see a troop of monkeys on the property one afternoon. The house was stocked with everything we needed. The driveway is very steep as the house is on a hill. There is a house manager on property who was helpful and kind. Be prepared to enjoy paradise.

A little slice of heaven

The home is beautiful and the view is amazing. There are several outdoor dining and "hang out" areas that just add to the experience. The pool was perfect - our family was in it all the time. It is a short drive to Uvita (5 minutes). But the best part is Nicholas, Licho and Darling. They make sure your every need is covered and make you feel like family. Would 1000% stay here again.

What a wonderful time my husband and I and our 4 kids had staying here. It's an amazing place to stay. We spent most of our time outside by the beautiful pool. There are a lot of different areas to enjoy outside and breathtaking view. We enjoyed multiple meals that we had Darling cook for us and Licho was so nice to work with.

Beautiful property! Our second time there.

The house was great. This was our second stay at La Libelula. We took our kids in 2014 and it has been our favorite vacation since so we had to go back and do it all again with them as adults. So fun! Lucho and Darling cooked for us one night and it was amazing. Probably our best meal during our stay. Views are wonderful and close to the middle of town for restaurants, groceries, beaches and activities.

Perfect for family

La Libelula was perfect for our family gathering of 8 of us. The home is located just outside of town making it convenient for us to get to stores beach etc. The large pool and many sitting areas offer a variety of cool areas to hang out. Licho was great, he was there if you needed him and made himself scarce when you wanted to be alone. The number of Toucans visiting each day was astounding. We would recommend this house for larger groups and families.

Amazing getaway!

There was plenty of spaces for our 2 families which included 6 teenagers (12-15). The villa was very clean and well maintained by Licho and Darling. They also gave us great advice for site seeing in the area. Our host Nicolas made sure to check if we were enjoying our stay. The Villa is more beautiful than the pictures. My only advice is to make sure that you have a 4x4 vehicle to access the Villa, there is a very steep hill to climb. I would recommend the Villa to all my friends and family!

Amazing property

I’m almost at a loss about where to start. The home owner has thought of everything. There is nothing we wanted for. Outdoor and indoor spaces were lovely. The pool area alone made the stay worth it. So many birds to see from the viewing deck. Toucans coming very close. A great meal from Darling, and licho was so friendly and helpful, even bringing a generator when the power was out for several hours. And their little cat added to our enjoyment. Thanks so much. We will be back!!

Beautiful vacation home

La Libelula is a beautiful 4BR, 4BA home with great views of the ocean. It's very well maintained and has a great kitchen fully stocked if you like to cook. An amazing pool, outdoor kitchen and plenty of seating for everyone. There were 7 of us and had plenty of room. It was the perfect location for all kinds of excursions! Licho provided us with rental car reservations and arranged all of our excursions. His wife Darling is an awesome cook, she'll cook your meals for $40 plus groceries, which was awesome! They were both friendly and professional, providing excellent concierge service! We had the best vacation and would highly recommend staying here! Looking forward to staying here again soon!!

Was definitely helpful to have an SUV. Licho, the host on property, was so helpful and attentive.

A magical week

We booked our week at La Libulela well in advance to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary with our two sons and daughters-in-law. When we saw the pictures of the house and its location overlooking the Pacific on the south coast of Costa Rice on VRBO, we were sure this was the place we wanted to be for our anniversary. We arrived at La Libulela in the early evening after flights from three different places, and then took an almost 4hour drive in pouring rain most of the way. Needless to say we were exhausted, but we were met by Licho at an agreed gas station, who then guided us to the house. We definitely needed our 4x4 SUV to get there, but upon arrival Licho's wife, Darling, had (by pre-arrangement) the most delicious traditional Costa Rican dinner prepared for us. She cooked for us 5 nights of our 7 night stay. All were special. The house, pool, and grounds were even beyond our expectations, which were very high. Having three king-sized beds in our three beautiful en-suite bedrooms was wonderful. Our week flew by, with walks on the beach, ATV adventures, coffee farm tour, seeing a mother and baby finback whales, water falls exploration with a sloth sighting, relaxing in and by the pool part of every day day, visits to the house by a large white-face monkey family, as well as toucans and macaws, anniversary dinner at a restaurant right on the ocean, and most especially the warmth, welcome and friendship of our hosts, Licho and Darling. Truly a magical week.

Pura Vida Paradise

We were thrilled with every aspect of our stay at the beautiful La Libelula. As beautiful as the photos are, it’s even more spectacular in person. Absolutely everything you could need for your stay is provided. The bedrooms are beautiful, spacious and comfortable with air conditioning and 3 have their own private balcony. The kitchen is well- stocked with every small appliance you would need and plenty of dishes and glassware. The living spaces provide beautiful spaces to gather with family and friends. The outdoor space and pool area are stunning, surrounded with lush tropical plants and with gorgeous views. It’s like your own peaceful, private oasis. We spent time here every day relaxing and listening to the birds and howler monkeys. We even had a group of monkeys one day in the trees right next to the house! Nicolas was wonderful as a host. Very responsive and helpful. Licho and Darling were so kind and helpful during our stay with anything we needed. We will definitely return to Costa Rica and stay at La Libelula again and highly recommend this property as an ideal place for family and friends to stay!

Paradise in Uvita

La Libelula is a very special place and we are grateful to have spent 10 days there. The home is enormous and beautiful, but the pièce de résistance is the stunning pool and garden. The landscaping is thoughtful and perfect—truly a paradise. The pool is very large and well maintained. It seems magically so, but it comes down to the care and diligence of Licho, the onsite property manager, who I saw discreetly cleaning the pool before dawn. The pool temp is perfect. From reading in the shallows to dodgeball, we enjoyed it multiple times a day. The garden has so many special places to sit that our biggest vacation challenge was adequately taking advantage of them all. Our favourite was the bird watching platform which somehow always managed to be largely shaded, and got a light breeze being perched over a large hill. We moved the rocking chairs there, under the umbrella and saw loads of birds- macaws, parrots, parakeets, toucans, hummingbirds, tanagers, great kiskadees, and more —plus howler monkeys. We also particularly loved: lunching in the rancho; the sofa area by the pool; and the hammocks. Licho and Darling are lovely people. Always there for you while affording you total privacy. We enjoyed Darling’s meals, especially her guacamole and pico de gallo. Each bed/ensuite is comfortable, large and has ample storage. Location is perfect--close to Uvita but doesn’t feel so. The home was clearly designed and built as a labour of love. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Best of Uvita!

What hasn’t been said previously? The house, outside areas, pool, and view are all beautiful - hard to capture in pictures. Licho and Darling (the caretakers who live in a house up the hill from the villa) are just wonderful people. A week prior to arrival, Licho lined up a great snorkeling/whale watching trip and an awesome ATV trip to waterfalls and a coffee plantation. He met us at the edge of town and led us to the villa. He is so warm, friendly, funny, and helpful - he really adds to the experience. We had them prepare meals for us twice, and Darling really is an exceptional cook. The chicken enchiladas in particular were out of this world - so good! They cook at their place and drop it off at 6:30. There is a menu in the kitchen to choose from - definitely worth doing. Uvita itself is small - you’ll learn your way around quickly, and there are some good places to eat. The Uvita Waterfall was a good visit. Hanging around the pool, enjoying the sights and sounds was great, too. Perfect place for that! Do get a 4x4 for your rental car - the pavement ends well before you get to the very cool automatic gates leading to the driveway and up to the house. The extra traction is nice and I’d worry somewhat going up the steep hills without it, but you really need the better ground clearance around Uvita. We had such a wonderful, relaxing stay. Even the weather was great - mostly blue skies and sunshine.

Mediocre Experience

I traveled with family, an elderly couple and teenage boys. The house is definitely gorgeous with breathtaking views and a beautiful outdoor area. I will list the good and the bad. Cons *No Central AC- ductless air conditioners are provided in each room but there is no AC on the first floor. Upon my arrival, one of the AC's would not blow cold air. A technition was out that same evening to add refrigerant. *Gate control did not work- Had to wait 8 to 10 minutes for the main gate to open and close; the control was exchanged the following day. *Indoor Jacuzzi did not work. Filled up the tub excited to relax just to find out the jets do not turn on. *Outdoor Jacuzzi did not work- notified Darling, no response. *Refridgerator leaking water/freezer shelf broken- notified Darling who placed a towel underneath to prevent any slips. *No toilterties provided such as, shampoo and conditioner. *No paper towels/napkins provided. We ordered dinner one night, which was delicious, only thing missing was napkins. *No bathroom on the main floor, bathrooms are only located upstairs. *No coffee, water filter or herbs/spices. *Power goes in and out (normal). Had to restart washer/dryer, which is located outside the home. *No light cleaning provided. Beds were never made on the second day as promoted *Beds are hard and not comfortable.
