The property is absolutely stunning. You can see and feel how much life the surrounding jungle is filled with, but with the comfort of a beautiful home. It was incredibly peaceful. You truly need an off road vehicle to make the climb to the house though. But it is well worth it. Owner is super easy to communicate with and easy to talk to. My only issue, which really wasn't even that big of a problem, was that it isn't quite in Uvita. It is an actually very lovely ~20min drive. If you're looking for a secluded getaway this is IT!

My husband and I are doing business in Uvita and needed a nearby place to stay. This site said "Uvita" and even had a geographic pin which I checked. Somehow both were misstated. The day before I left I learned that the house is roughly 40 minutes south of Uvita (and even further from Dominical) meaning we did a lot of extra driving throughout the week and were too exhausted to go back to the house, shower and go out again for dinner. If you really don't care where you stay, then this house is lovely with a great view. It's cozy, has all the amenities you will need and the owner was easy to work with.

This property is amazing. It’s about an 8 minute drive up the hill from the road. You WILL need 4x4. Once you arrive you will be amazed by how modern the property is and the view. The check- in process was a breeze and Jose was very accommodating. Paul was easy to get ahold of when we had questions. The kitchen has everything you will need to cook and prepare food and there’s a variety of spices in the cupboard. Pros: - The views - The pool - communication - Decor - Modern touches Cons - You won’t want to leave -Nothing else will compare Perfect for families, couples, and friends who want to get away from the rat race.

The house and property are beautiful! We enjoyed out time there and didn't want to leave. The views and wildlife can't be beat. The house is very secluded and offers peace and quiet away from it all. Coming and going to town and activities was an effort. Had we know how far it was from Uvita, we would have planned our days a bit differently and planned more meals at "home." Live and learn, and we will know for next time we stay there. We will be back for sure!

This property is heaven on earth. Once you make the harrowing drive up the long "drive way", you will never want to leave. Some days you are nestled in the clouds, other days you're overlooking a sun soaked valley. Some days you get a bit of both. This is a birdwatcher's paradise. So many different and colorful varieties to spy on. Our favorite visitors were the abundant toucans eating from the tree directly in front of the lanai. Sadly, we did not see any monkeys or sloths like others have mentioned, but we came across agoutis and possums on the "driveway" regularly. The location is fantastic. We were never far from restaurants, beaches, or activities. So much to do and marvel at in this area without running into a slew of tourists. Our favorite beaches were Ventana (fun waves with no undertow and beach stands with food/drink) and Whale's tail during low tide. We did the Kokopelli mangrove covered boat tour and saw every species of wildlife you come to CR to view. The house(s) was such a special place to retreat to at the end of the day. You are VERY isolated on that hill. There is a neighbor and his dog at the end of the driveway but you only see his house on the way up. The wi-fi was pretty much non-existent when we were there so there was no web searching or tv watching, but the description does mention the wi-fi is not always reliable. As noted, don't expect to do "work" at this location. This was not an issue for us as the kids spent all their free time in the infinity pool and we adults pretty much stayed on the deck when we were home taking in that view. The first day we arrived, we opened the accordion windows and the breeze was wonderful. I don't think the description emphasized enough that a 4x4 is a MUST. We rented a Toyota Rav 4 but did not engage the 4x4 the first trek up the "driveway". The first trip up is a little sketchy and treacherous. We were not expecting that. It's is an INCREDIBLY steep rock and dirt road up the mountain with small hairpin turns for about 1.4 Km. Don't let this steer you from the property though. Once we figured out that we actually had to engage the 4x4, it was so much FUN that I looked forward to driving up and down that hill. It was an adventure in itself. When we arrived, the local caretaker met us at the main road gate and led us up the mountain on his ATV. Mr.Beauregard was very responsive to texts and addressed all inquiries. There are numerous security cameras around the property.

I’ll had the most amazing experience ever!!!

We had a wonderful vacation at the Beauregard's beautiful home. The property is perfectly situated to enjoy stunning views and the beauty of Costa Rican wildlife. Each day brought something new to admire - words cannot express how stunning a location it is. It is a very private location but never too far from anywhere you plan to go. For all but one of us, it was not our first trip to Costa Rica, but it was our first time to the Costa Ballena area; we loved it, particularly because it is unspoiled by over-tourism while still offering plenty to do and see (and eat - the restaurants in Ojochal are amazing!) We would absolutely stay at this property again and cannot wait to visit again soon.

Montana Paraiso is an absolutely spectacular property. My family has traveled to Costa Rica from the US for 15 years, and this area is our favorite. The proximity to waterfalls, beaches, restaurants, and hiking is perfect, and the area is quiet and full of wildlife. The check in process was easy. Paul, the owner, is helpful in the weeks leading up to the trip, which was great. Adolfo showed us the property and told us that he was available for anything we might need. The property is a five minute drive from the coastal highway. Even though you do need 4WD to access the property, the road is in great condition, smooth and graded, even after a heavy rain storm. Arriving at the property, the two houses are literally floating over the amazing Costa Rica valley. The view is unparallleled... you can see the ocean, mountains, and amazing sunsets. The landscaping is gorgeous, with flowers, palms, and lush trees nearby that offer dappled shade. The house is clean, with air conditioning that works great. We also loved opening up the sliding doors in the morning and evening to enjoy the mountain breezes. The kitchen is well-stocked with spices, dry goods, and plenty of items for cooking and serving meals. All of the appliances work wonderfully well. The couch is new and comfortable, so we were able to relax inside in the evening until it was time for bed. The pool is so much fun! The waterfall was a great feature, and we spent an hour or two every day swimming back and forth, enjoying the time to cool off in the warm weather. The cabana and outdoor furniture became our favorite area to relax and read in the late afternoons. The wildlife in the area is worth mentioning. We heard the haunting calls of howler monkeys every day, white faced capuchins came by in the trees near the house, and we had a visiting coati and agouti stroll through the gardens. All of these visitors are harmless, and it’s amazing to see wildlife up close. I love seeing birds in Costa Rica and was thrilled to see so many amazing birds at this property: Violaceous Trogon, Scarlet Macaws, Great Curassow, Green Honeycreeper, Blue Dacnis, Golden-Hooded Tanager, and many other tanagers, orioles, hummingbirds, woodpeckers, woodcreepers, flycatchers, and manakins. My husband and I loved this trip. We visited the Uvita Waterfall twice, Nauyaca Waterfalls, the Pavon Waterfall, and Ventanas Beach. We went out to eat and had amazing food. What an incredible property!
