High up in the mountains we found our little piece of heaven above Uvita, surrounded by exploding nature with all sorts of birds, wild animals of all kinds... and yes, we had mariposas, too. We enjoyed every minute of our stay in deep tranquility, fascinated by what happened around us. Who do people walk for miles to see nature - here your big show comes to you... The house is super modern and equipped with all sorts of devices you can ever wish. While we spent our holidays there we made a further booking for 2025. This may give a hint to our opinion of this place. If we could we would give a sixth star for the hosts, Christine and Tom. Whatever unexpected happened - they were at our side, showing more than good will and creativity to help us - even during outages of electricity or internet connection, which was for away from their responsibility. To find managers and friends like them you have to search for a long long time...

As always, Tom and Christine, do a great job and getting you set up for a great time! The house was as listed and described! We did a whale watching tour and saw five whales and had a masseuse out to give my wife a massage and she said it was excellent. I’ve always enjoyed going to Costa Rica and this time was no different. Thanks again Tom and Christine for a wonderful time and may God richly bless you!

Tom welcome us in the village to help us fond the place and to answer our question. The view is very beautiful, its quiet like we wanted, the house is well designed, equipped and the decor the way we like. We need a 4x4 cause it is way up on the hill but the distance is worth. We spend our mornings ans evenings just to enjoy the place,

This was the perfect mix for us of privacy and resort style accommodations. Our hosts had a lot of amazing advice and put us in contact with an expedition company who made all our arrangements. The view is spectacular, even when it's raining. It's open air living in the jungle without the hassle of crowds. We saw parrots, toucans, and a coati just from our yard.

Property managers are communicative and care about their job. House in great condition. Road can be tricky to navigate at first. View and peaceful setting worth the drive from Uvita.
