Entire house-Whale Tail/Ocean Views, Pool! Casita avail to rent for add'l fee

Casa Bambu is a 1 bedroom home situated on 1.5 acres with amazing views and an infinity pool. For guests who rent the main house a separate studio casita is also available for an additional fee (suitable for 1 to 2 adults or teenagers). The property has breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, white water beaches, Ballena Marine Park and at a distance – Cano Island and the Osa Peninsula.

The custom house is tropical design, structural bamboo vaulted ceilings and local exotic hardwoods. Unique and charming – the property sits at an elevation of 1100 ft (300 meters) – keeping the house cool and fresh during the day, with mountain downdrafts to cool at night.

A full kitchen with a gas BBQ, bathroom, living area, laundry and covered patio – all on the main floor. (The covered patio is a great for viewing songbirds, parrots, toucans, and aracaris as they visit the mango tree - not to mention the direct view of the Whales Tale and the Bahia.)

On the lower level - a spacious master bedroom with King size bed and incredible ocean views. Offering A/C, quality linens, privacy, and large en-suite, along with a walk-in closet with a safe. Patio doors lead you to a private terrace where your infinity pool awaits.

The house was designed for couples - offering the perfect amount of detail to create an escape from the everyday life of the northern hemisphere. Ideal for honeymooners, personal life celebrations, birders, those who just want to get away from the busy-ness of daily life. This property is serene, but full of plant, bird and tropical life!

You will have the whole house and grounds to yourself. The casita will not be rented during your stay at Casa Bambu.

WiFi at the house is very stable and fast Fiber Optic internet. There is a smart TV in the living room that can be used for streaming and watching movies. There is a washer and dryer at the house for the guests to use. Because the house sits at 1100 ft elevation, guests enjoy cool mountain breezes; however, we have installed air conditioning in the bedroom which can be used for a minimal additional charge based on usage and and the electric meter reading for your actual stay. Most guests who use the AC only use it to cool down the bedroom in the evening and have not gone over the budgeted allowance for electricity.

Access to this property is along an incredible jungle road. (It does have a couple of steep sections to it and requires a 4WD SUV.) The house is about a 15 minute drive from town up a mountain road. There is a locked gate to enter the property and there are security cameras for the entrances and driveway to the property. There are no cameras in the house or pool area.

Our property manager, Trina – will meet you in town and escort you to the property.

We stayed at casa bambu for our honeymoon and could not have been happier with our choice. The property was beyond beautiful, private, clean, and just right for a couple to stay. Listen to the host about getting a 4x4 car for the long drive up. The owner and property management were both very responsive to questions before and during our stay. Thank you Peg, Trina & Jorge! We plan to stay again on an anniversary trip :)

We love Casa Bamboo. This was our 3rd time staying in this lovely home and it NEVER disappoints! This year we had incredible wildlife visitors daily. The weather was perfect. Sleeping and waking with the sun to the jungle sounds is healing for the nervous system. Highly recommend!

Loved!

Casa Bambu is a cozy, beautiful home with absolutely gorgeous views! The drive up and down the mountain is no joke, but you will get used to it after a few times. Just make sure you have 4x4 and hold on! The hosts have thought of everything—the kitchen is well equipped, they have boogie boards and beach chairs, and the towels and linens are fresh and crisp! Our stay was short but lovely!

Holiday in the JUNGLE!! 5 Stars!!

Amazing time in Costa Rica! The property is located in the middle of the jungle with amazing views!! This is the first property I stayed at in Costa Rica that had actual screens on the doors and windows that worked! So no worries about any insects or animals getting into the house. The house is extremely clean and well maintained. The property manager is also amazing. She can answer any questions you have and point you in the right direction. She lives a few mins away and checked in with me a few times during my stay. Definitely an amazing time!!

Didn't want to leave!

The pictures did not do this place justice. We woke up to breathtaking views of the ocean every morning, which made it difficult to leave. In the evenings you could sit on the covered porch and listen to the rainfall or watch the birds (we saw a toucan). At night, we fell asleep to the sounds of what sounded like a hundred different types of insects and reptiles (including frogs!). It was so peaceful. The area itself has beautiful beaches (out favorite was Whales Tail). The local restaurants were delicious, including the many sodas. I also loved that the area wasn't very touristy, we were forced to communicate in Spanish which was pretty fun! The rental had everything we needed, we used the full kitchen & many candles to make romantic dinners, used the BBQ for grilling up some of the local produce we picked up, took the cooler and beach chairs to the beach for an evening lunch. The only negative was there were some bugs that made there way through in the upstairs area, but then again we were in the jungle. Also, you need a car (and a sturdy one) to get up and down this mountain as the roads are a little rough (but in an adventurous way). Loved loved loved this place and will be back again. Thank you Jacqui and Randy!

An oasis for the mind, body and soul.

My girlfriend and I spent two weeks at Casa Bambu, and literally had tears in our eyes when we had to leave. If you are looking for a break from your hectic life, need to recharge, and gain some perspective, Jacqui and Randy have created a home that reflects their love of Costa Rica embracing both the serenity of the mountain and the expanse of the ocean from a truly private location. Nestle at the top of a winding road, best driven in a 4X4 , you arrive at a house meticulously cared for , beautiful gardens surround you, and an orchestra of wildlife serenades you. The kitchen is well equipped, airy, and spotless. Whether making fresh ceviche, firing up the barbecue or blending fresh fruit shakes, you won't be disappointed. Jacqui and Randy provided us with great suggestions for restaurants, but most nights we were content to create our own dinners, half the fun was checking out the farmers market in Quepos and Uvita and the local market (BM) had everything else. You can choose to spend your day on the wide veranda, overlooking the expanse of jungle leading to the Whales Tail, floating around their infinity pool, or you can make your way to any number of beaches which suit both the surfer and sun worshipper. A must do...walking the beach of Playa Balena at low tide..your footsteps may be the only ones you see..:) We would also recommend the Uvita Information Centre - very helpful and they use great tour operators. We chose to fly from San Jose to Quepos via Sansa Airlines, (an easy connection) airports are next to each other...which takes about 25 mins and saves the longer drive from San Jose 2.5 to 3 hours. The flight passes over beautiful mountain ranges leading to the sea, so you can get a great overview. We were met in Quepos (a small landing strip) by a representative of Vamos Car rental (they bring the vehicle from San Jose. We got a new automatic 4X4, which was suited to the bumpy off roads of CR. Once you get to Uvita and you head up to the property, it is steep, but well graded now and will be second nature after a couple of trips. As I mentioned earlier, we had a hard time leaving Casa Bambu. After the first night looking up at the stars, listening to all the life surrounding me, I felt like a child again, grateful to have been to given the opportunity to rediscover what so easily gets lost in our busy lives, a sense of discovery, of wonder, in a truly natural world..

6/10 Okay

Amazing house... but was mislead and ultimately disappointed...

First, the owners were a really nice and helpful couple. They would answer all my questions and really made our trip to Costa Rica enjoyable. I hate giving them a less than stellar review, but unfortunately we encountered several issues during our stay. The Good: The house is amazing and in great condition. Everything is new and clean. Juan the caretaker of the property is super nice and willing to help you with whatever. The views are spectacular. Alot of thought went into the design of the house. The Bad: This ad is misleading about a few items. The ad states you are 10 minutes from Uvita and the beaches. But in reality it takes at least 25 minutes to get to the nearest beaches. The road up the mountain is in bad condition and takes about 20 minutes to get up. You will not want to make this drive up and down multiple times during the day. The ad also describes birds singing and relaxation. Both are hard to enjoy when there are sounds of construction going on. Unfortunately there is a small boutique hotel being built about 200 yards from this property. Every morning around 6am the circular saws and hammering started, and they ended around 6/7 pm at night. I was very disappointed that we were not informed of this before arriving. Finally, my last gripe. The pictures fail to capture the other property sitting just below the sightline of the bedroom views. While this property doesnt look into the house or obstruct any views, you should know there is another house about 150 ft below. Based on the description i expected seclusion, but that is not necessarily the case. Before you rent this property, ask about the status of the hotel construction. If you dont mind a little background noise other than birds and monkeys, this is a good property for you. I would rate this property as 5 stars if we didn't have to deal with the bad road conditions or the construction. I really do hate giving a negative review because the owners were so nice. Once the construction is over and the road conditions improve, jump on this property. Until then, make sure you know what you are getting into.

Stunning views after an adventurous road!

My husband and I thoroughly researched properties in Uvita while planning our trip and are so grateful we found Casa Bambu. This jewel exceeded our expectations! The road up is no joke. We love to offroad so the 3 bumpy, curvy miles wasn't a concern for us but make sure you rent a 4x4 with low range and make the drive part of your adventure it's 15 to 20 minutes through the jungle each way. Casa Bambu is surrounded by lush trees and tropical plants with a clear view of La Ballena below. You feel completely secluded, although you may hear the buzz of saws working on properties nearby along with an occasional motorcycle blending in with the Cicadas. We woke up every morning to Aracari, Toucans and other tropical birds as we enjoyed coffee next to the pool. We ate in most nights to take in the sunset as we grilled fresh shrimp and ahi on the bbq. We'll return again to Casa Bambu for more Pura Vida!

Absolute Paradise!

Wow, wow and more wow! Casa Bambu is a special, special place, and we were so fortunate to spend 6 magical days there. Peggy was wonderful answering my questions and providing recommendations before we arrived (and yes, get the 4x4 - you need it. I’ve been driving Costa Rican roads for 14 years, and the road up is no joke. But it becomes an incredible part of the adventure!) Jorge and Trina (property managers) were amazing and answered any questions we had. And the HOUSE!! The view is spectacular. You feel really secluded in a private, natural, calm, quiet oasis. We loved cooling off in the pool, sunsets on the loungers, morning time on the covered veranda watching the toucans, beautiful dinners in the eating nook and pre-sunrise snuggles in the beautifully appointed bedroom with the spectacular view. You have everything there that you need to chill, relax, cook great meals and connect with nature. If Casa Bambu is available, grab it! You will leave relaxed, re-energized and definitely believing in magic!

The views make it tough to leave

The location lent itself to views for miles and miles and the treetops just off the balcony provided tons of bird watching. Toucans and Aracaris were close by and the occasional maccau flew by shoing off their scarlet red bodies. Bring binoculars so you can take in the colorful details of the toucans off in the near distance...there's a tree they seem to all love.Pay particular attention to the owner's plea to rent a 4x4, you'll need it and be sure to get one with a high clearance as there are potholes. If you've ever driven in the Caribbean, particularly St. John, you'll be at home driving here. Nothing treacherous, just long steep lengths of dirt roads. There is a very popular waterfall with refreshing pools at the start of the road to the home so this site couldn't be more convenient. There was a sloth hanging out there during our week's stay.The home was very comfortable and the bedroom was rather spa-like. The owner and the management team were very attentive. Definitely one of the more comfortable stays my wife and I had. And Uvita is delightful as it is not too touristy and everyone is so polite.

We didn’t want to leave!

Casa Bambú was so beautiful and comfortable, staying here was a highlight of our trip to Costa Rica. The views are just gorgeous, and we were in love with watching the colorful parade of bird visitors each day. We also loved the little geckos. The home had everything we needed, including a very well equipped kitchen that made prepping meals a breeze. I was pleasantly surprised to even find a set of yoga mats. It really feels like you are staying in a loved and well cared for home. The evening ocean breeze kept us comfy at night, we didn’t even use the AC. Peggy and her wonderful team were very helpful and proactive in communication, getting us settled in and checked out. Extra thank you to Jorge for meeting up with me afterwards to return an item I had left behind! You absolutely need a 4x4 to get there - the road is steep and rocky. We would just do one trip out for the day and got more comfortable with the road each time.
