About this house rental

Located in Bahía Ballena, this charming house for $157 per night is a great choice for your next trip. Nestled in the mountains of Uvita with breathtaking views of the Whale’s Tail, this brand new house is surrounded by lush rainforest and is less than 2 miles away from town. Wake up to the sound of toucans and enjoy your breakfast on the open kitchen island. Open the living room’s sliding doors to enjoy the ocean breeze and expansive ocean views. Jump into the infinity pool and soak in the beauty of Costa Rica’s southern coastline. Whatever you choose to do, you can’t go wrong with Pura Uvita! ------- About the Property -------- We fell in love with the location as soon as we saw the view. We had been looking for properties all over Costa Rica, and when we found this one, we immediately knew this was it. The beauty of the Osa peninsula is breathtaking and there are no words for describing how relaxing it is to be able to look right down at the whale’s tail from the comfort of your home all while in the middle of the rainforest. If you are looking for a true Costa Rican green-lush rainforest experience, the Osa peninsula is definitely the place to go. The house was designed with a modern/industrial feel and boasts modern concrete and local wood finishes throughout. The two cedar trees that were cut to make room for the house were 100% utilized for closets, doors, and cabinets. Woods from other smaller trees were used throughout the construction process as well; our goal was to minimize waste as much as possible. We strived to create a very open floor plan which is why you’ll find ultra high ceilings and will be able to literally open up the living room into the terrace, creating a large indoor/outdoor environment and allowing air to circulate throughout the house. The design of the ceiling along with strategic fan placement help keep the house at a very comfortable temperature so A/C is not necessary (although it is available in the bedrooms). This is a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom size designed to comfortably fit 4 people (2 persons per room), but it can accommodate up to 2-4 additional people (there are 2 sofa beds in the living room). There is WiFi available as well as a flat screen internet-connected TV. The kitchen is stocked with all the utensils you need to cook. Linens and towels are provided as are shampoo, conditioner, and soap. There is an infinity pool, a large terrace and a lounging deck which could also be used for yoga. Note that due to the beauty of the area, many people are wanting to move here (or come on vacation). As a result, there may be construction going on near or around the area. Construction is now common anywhere from Escaleras all the way down through Uvita and south of Ojochal.

Everything was perfect, the location, the house, We had everything we needed. It was very comfortable and waking up everyday to the views and wildlife was just amazing. Loren the Manager was absolutely Great and helped us with any questions we had as well as recommendations to the area and restaurants. We had a beautiful anniversary dinner at the top of the mountain that treated us like royalty ! Andrea was Awesome and is correct they have the perfect place right there. I recommend this listing 100% to anyone that wants it all , comfort, views, pool, wildlife, and peace and privacy ! Waterfalls 2 minutes away! Just Perfect! Thank you so much!

We had a lovely time. House is simple but worked perfectly for our family of 4. Basic bag of coffee and some spices were at the house, and although we've definitely experienced better staples at other properties this wasn't enough of an inconvenience to distract. Internet worked well, and pool was fantastic. We did loose electricity a few times during the stay, but generally only briefly. Loren was fantastic, arranging a poolside couples massage for us one afternoon (highly recommend!). Only thing to keep in mind: If you don't like bugs and lizards in your space, you may want to look for something else.

Property was beautiful. Had amazing views of the ocean. We loved the view of the ocean , the birds, the lizards, the giant chicken, like animals that scared the hell out of us ! It Had all the amenities you would want. The only negative I think would be is that in November after like 2 o’clock in the afternoon there is full sun on the back patio where we spent most of our time, and it really would’ve been nice to have some shade.

The property was gorgeous! Well stocked with things that we needed. LOVED the bedroom armoire! Beautiful bathroom. It was exactly as advertised, pool, indoor/outdoor feel with all the glass that opens up. Enjoyed the birds and other wildlife that came to visit. The people down the mountain in the pubs, etc. were exceptionally friendly. I really minded the ride up and down but I'm a wuss. You need 4x4, no joke.

The villa is situated on the hilltop overlooking the whales tale. The pictures are exactly what you will see from the spectacular view of the patio. Lovely pool and really unique kitchen/living room area. Bedrooms are air conditioned for great sleeping and beds are very comfortable. Outdoor showers which are always fun. Laundry available with detergent. Kitchen is equipped with everything you need. It is a drive up a mountain but not impossible. After following Loren up the first day we had it figured out. Loren; the property manager is the best. He guided us to the best grocery store; close to the villa, and was available when we locked ourselves out. Only downside was the day we decided to just hang out and enjoy the pool the lawn crew arrived and the pool man arrived. Lawns need to be mowed and the pool needs to be taken care of so we understood but we were sure surprised. I was sitting outside in pjs when the lawn crew pulled up lol. Highly recommend. Owners reached out the day we checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit

My husband and I stayed in this magical property and absolutely loved it! The location and house are wonderful! We adored the stunning views and all the wildlife. And Loren, the property manager, was amazing! He had all kinds of great suggestions for things to do, was super attentive to anything we needed and was just a very cool guy in general. I could not have wished for a better place to stay on our first trip to Costa Rica!
