Elevated high above Uvita, the property extended views into both the Jungle and the Pacific Ocean below. The facilities were good and it provided us an excellent platform to explore the surrounding area. Lori was pleasant to deal with, provided good information to get there and the facilities in the local area. Note - 4x4 is a must! We hired a local guide in Uvita and were shown Sloths, Monkeys, Cayman, Macaws and a Tree Boa (Snake)! Definitely recommend this and a Whale/ Dolphin Tour. Local restaurants/ bars are good. Particularly enjoyed the Craft pub 'Uvita Beer Garden' situated off the road on the way up to the house. Also, recommend heading right out of the property, up the hill and take in sunset across the Ocean - Stunning!

Finka Khan was one of the most beautiful properties I have ever stayed at. The open air concept overlooking the ocean, in the middle of the rain forest…perfection. We saw so many beautiful birds. The hiking trails were well maintained. The location was close enough to town that you could drive to restaurants/markets. As noted by the host, you will need a 4x4.

We had the most amazing stay at this jungle retreat. Everything was as depicted. It was peaceful, beautiful, comfortable and frankly a piece of heaven on earth. We enjoyed the open concept, wildlife sights and sounds. Toucans, monkeys, blue morpho butterflies and more. My husband, daughter and I did not want to leave. Beautiful views, private and safe setting. Lori was quick to respond to any questions or needs before and during our stay. She had excellent recommendations for things to do and places to eat. We were sad to leave but hope to return someday. Thanks for a great stay!

Very clean, very open house. No walls except for the bedrooms and bathrooms. A little hard to get to even with a 4x4 but once there it was very enjoyable.

We so enjoyed our stay at Finca Kahn! The house is a dream nestled in the mountains with a water view on one side and the other up against the jungle. Lori and Bobby, the hosts were great! I would recommend this house to anyone! Pura vida!

This place is a birding paradise. But if you don’t like the heat or are sensitive with insects, I don’t think you would enjoy it. I must have missed the fact that there was no AC so it was difficult to cool down. The first floor of the house could use a big fan. The fact that all the cabinets and frig needed to be locked was inconvenient for cooking. The kitchen could use a peeler and a strainer. The driveway is very loud when others drive by. It was an experience in true outdoor Tico living!
