BEST VIEW in UVITA, (See VIDEO)Oceanfront VIEWS from literally EVERY Room and Shower. on NEW improved Public Road (MAY 2021)
Kincaid design with Oriental style roof, super large bedrooms w 16' patio doors, Super LARGE Kitchen with spectacular Ocean views while you cook, Murano Italy Chandeliers, Granite, Marble, Spanish Tiles, Infinity edge lap pool and HEATED outdoor ocean view shower, located on 13 acres PRIVATE RESERVE of Primary Jungle with abundance of Toucans and Aracari, a birdwatchers paradise .The openness of the design makes you feel like you are one with nature and there are ocean views from every room including the showers. All the rooms are huge and there are very few walls which creates unique views and dimensional relationships that make one feel free and tranquil! You are 15-25 minutes drive from enough adventure tours to keep you busy for 2 weeks. The privacy afforded by our huge property is like no other home in the area , yet still close to town and fabulous restaurants.
3rd Bedroom is a cordoned off curtained portion of huge living room with a closet and 1/2 bath and outside heated shower. This is the only bedroom on that floor. See Photo.
A car with 4x4 low(we rent ours) is necessary to access all the properties in our international subdivision. We can also rent you our4x4. Turbocharged diesel 7 passenger vehicle. Our property is at1,650 elevation , with large trees and spectacular ocean views, this microclimate means that nights get very cool , there are very high ceilings, which are vented, and there are huge windows, which allow for constant airflow. The air is the freshest you will ever breathe! Open the windows on the ocean side and the mountain side and the 14,000 foot mountain range above us will push Cool air through the house at night.
Right outside the door are interior trails and just above us is some of the best hiking you will find.

Glorious Stay
Amazing property for Birthday week. The pool and whole home have the most beautiful view and is surrounded by wildlife. Internet was strong but the tv was unavailable due to no remote and the outdoor grill needs a little help. The home is like a museum to Costa Rica and Uvita....filled with awesome artwork and masks available to purchase. Del was a perfect host showing the property and full of local information. Beautiful vacation on Whalestail!

Pool Time
I’ll start at the top, no pun intended as we are up in the cloud forest! 4WD is a must. The bedroom, super comfortable beds! Great towels and bedding. Shower could use a bench for shampoo etc and in case you slip. Lots of stairs, but we enjoyed the exercise. Kitchen was well stocked and sharp knives, bonus! Plan on doing some cooking or eat out early as traveling up and down the MT in the dark is a bit scary. The outdoor living is wonderful. It could use some cozy outdoor furniture. The pool was my favorite! Laps in the morning and relaxing/reading in the afternoon. The view is spectacular looking out to the whales tail, even though no sunrise or sunset views. The birds and wildlife are fabulous! We heard many different birds and howlers. Saw frogs, toucans and coati all on the property. If you like to hike, this place will not disappoint and it can be as extreme as you want. The host is very accommodating. Adrian is the best! He’s a can do assistant and a beautiful soul! Pura Vida💕

Honeymoon Heaven
My husband and I spent five wonderful days/nights at Del Congo for our honeymoon. We are already pre-planning a future return trip and hope to bring the whole family! This place is serene and idyllic. We loved the town of Uvita, and everyone we met was so lovely. A few tips. We rented a 4WD SUV (Geely Azkarra). Don't skimp on a rental. We arrived after dark in the rain, so we were glad to have this vehicle on our journey up the mountain. It also had a hill assist feature which was a blessing for our brakes. But don't let the tales of the road scare you away from this property. It is totally doable and honestly a fun part of the adventure. I also recommend having Alicia prepare at least one meal for your party! She's a great resource and a fantastic cook! If you want to plan an excursion, let Del handle that for you. He booked us a snorkeling trip to Cano Island and the company/guides were top notch! Aside from that, I am convinced you will not find a better vantage point for viewing the whale's tale! There are amazing restaurants and bars just down the road (Uvita Beer Garden, Los Laureles, Whale's Tale Brewery), and any essentials can be found a short drive in town. Whether you're a couple or a whole group, you will not regret staying at this gorgeous home! If you're on the fence, jump down and book this place!! Del is a fantastic host and readily available to answer any questions you may have! Enjoy your trip, Pura Vida!

Del Congo Stay
My husband and I stayed at this beautiful home and it was lovely. We enjoyed the pool and the grounds. Only special note when they say you need 4x4 they mean it! Once you get up there it is beautiful, we loved seeing the Lappas, monkeys and Tucans!

This house is special - very special. The views are better than the pictures. Seriously. It's a view that you can zone out to for 20 minutes before you even realize. The ceilings are high, and you feel at one with the jungle surroundings. Toucans & parrots fly around all day, and you can hear howler monkeys periodically. We even had a daily visits from a pizote! You are on top of a mountain, so yes the road is steep and you need a 4X4. It didn't slow us down at all - we enjoyed day trips as well as dinners out. If you are on the fence about booking this house, don't hesitate - just do it! It helps you slow down, enjoy the jungle and you will never forget your vacation. I know we never will :) Pura Vida!

Uvita Jungle House
Great house really fun really well maintained with a amazing view! Right in there with nature you can’t ask for a better setting this home is nestled in the jungle high up a beautiful mountain. Not only that it over looks this amazing national park called the whales tail, the view of the beach is second to none. Owner is super responsive and the roorrty manager is awesome as well, I highly recommend this home for anyone wanting to visit Costa Rica!!

Excellent place to stay!
We had a wonderful time and the view was spectacular. It was very private and we felt like we were part of the jungle. Howler monkeys and toucans right outside the trees in the morning with picturesque scarlet macaws flying by daily. Del was excellent and very attentive. If we need anything it was done right away. The kids loved the pool and it was great for swimming in. Extremely clean and well cared for. The grounds are beautifully maintained and it felt very safe. We can’t wait to go back.

Jungle get away with a view.
We had a great time at Del Congos Exotica. It was exactly what we were looking for, a private getaway with a great view and beautiful lush vegetation. The drive up to the house is not for the faint of heart and absolutely requires a 4x4 vehicle, but it all felt like an adventure. Oscar and Alicia were great caretakers. They were helpful and responsive to questions about the house.
