Chris and Kristen were very kind and thorough hosts. The place was beautifully and clearly well taken care of and loved. The villa was comfortable and the theming throughout was fun. Great shower and water pressure. Overall a very relaxing stay.

This spot was amazing! It feels like you have your own private oasis in the forests of Costa Rica. The grounds were incredible with tons of different plants, trees, birds, and insects all around. A short walk to the river was peaceful and there was no shortage of areas to explore on the property. I would definitely come back and bring friends next time!

Absolutely beautiful property with amazing hosts. The owners were very helpful in guiding us on the best things to do in area and helped set them up. They were on the property and available to answer questions and just chat if wanted. You don’t get that at a giant corporate hotel. We sat every morning on the porch drinking coffee and watching all the wildlife around us. Easy access to the small river to splash in and explore. Could go on and on but going to be in Uvita definitely consider staying here. You won’t regret you decision and will get to meet a couple awesome people.
