The condo was spectacular. The view and surrounding grounds were even better. The hosts made you feel at home and were always available for assistance if you needed. Coffee early in the morning with the birds was our favorite part. One suggestion, a mattress topper would go a long way, the bed was very hard. Otherwise our stay was exquisite!

Beautiful lodging and our stay was perfect! Hosts were very nice and the woodwork of cabinets and doors was beautiful. We walked in early morning and late afternoon and saw quite a few Toucans. Also a lot of Pavones (Wild Turkeys) and a Pisote stopped by and we watched them off our porch. The drive up the unpaved road took about 15 minutes from the main road and was worth it … the high hillside had a tremendous view from our back porch and the small pool was refreshing! Great place to stay!

What a Great Ocean View from the private Pool of the House!! I also stayed in one of their apartments, their pool as well have a spectacular vie to the Pacific Ocean and breathtaking sunsets. The hosts and their team are very helpful and friendly. And the best: our dogs were welcome and enjoyed their stay as much as we did. To Dog owners: to maintain this place dog friendly control your dogs and clean up after them, thank you! Overall one of the best places we stayed in the Uvita region!

We loved it here!! The sunsets were absolutely stunning. The owner was super nice and if we had any questions or needed anything a staff member was there quickly to help. The villa had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We rented a 2x4 car and was able to get there, you just have to give it some gas in a couple of places. Highly recommend staying here.
