De accommodatie was erg mooi, schoon en comfortabel. We hadden een prachtig uitzicht en genoten van de rustige ligging, terwijl we met de auto snel in Uvita waren. De keuken was goed uitgerust, het bed lag comfortabel en de douche en airco waren erg prettig. Ook hebben we genoten van het zwembad.

De informatie op Booking kwam op één punt niet helemaal overeen met onze verwachting. Er staat dat je de hele accommodatie voor jezelf hebt, terwijl het verblijf direct aan het huis van de host vastzit. Daarnaast vonden we de communicatie van de host over veiligheid en de lokale bevolking soms ongemakkelijk en bevooroordeeld. Ook werden we na ons vertrek meerdere keren gevraagd om een review te schrijven, terwijl we hadden aangegeven dit later te willen doen.

The location was very beautiful with 180 degree view of the Pacific Ocean. The host was charming and we immediately felt at home . The garden had a lovely ambiance with many birds and visiting agouti, pezote, tamandua , and capuchin monkeys. There was an excellent restaurant within a 5 minute drive . The infinity pool was large and very clean . Everything was perfect and we will definitely stay again as this area of Uvita has many places to visit that our host recommended and are not mentioned in tourist guides. We appreciated the well informed conversations about Costa Rica we had with the host and hope she will visit us at our Cotswold Mansion in the future.

Nothing, everything was perfect and it was such good value for such a gorgeous place

Our host was an absolute gem and incredibly knowledgeable about the local wildlife. The infinity pool, views, garden and guest suite were exceptional and exceeded our expectations. We saw a lot of flora and fauna just enjoying the property.

The only thing we didn't like was having to leave but we plan to return soon and stay here again.

The house and our adjoining apartment was lovely and clean and the infinity pool and views were great

The lady who owns the property recommended her trusted taxi driver, who is the only one she uses, as we didn't have a car. Unfortunately he didn't come to collect us so we had to get an uber. (granted not her fault). We messaged each other as she wanted to know when we would be arriving and I thought we would be later than 3pm,(check in time). When we arrived at exactly 3pm I messaged her to say "we are here" and she saw it as the ticks changed to blue, and I rang twice but the gate remained locked and we assumed she was out.We had to sit on the ground in the full sun with our bags and groceries for half an hour until she came from the house and let us in saying ," oh you said you would be late". Not the best start! We were shown our nice apartment and the lady within this ten minute chat told us how unsafe Uvita was and said that,I quote "you will be mugged by the ticas" and went to describe how 'they' tie you up with cable ties and gag you with gaffa tape! This was our our last place we were staying in the month of being in costa rica and we have never really felt uncomfortable or afraid or unsafe and the locals wherever we have stayed have always been friendly and very approachable, so this from our host here was quite shocking. This really upset me and that night I felt quite anxious and I didn't sleep well that night. This was not helped by the blinds not shutting on the big patio doors next to our bed. As well as this the fridge was extremely noisy and kept waking us up throughout the night and the lack of a thin blanket with our sheets meant we were cold with air conditioning on. I asked the next morning for a blanket and to do some washing but was told the washer was broken and she didn't have a blanket but didn't offer an alternative like more sheets or towels.
