About the host

Hosted by Claire

Host profile image
Living in southern California, our family has always enjoyed outdoor activities at the Beach, swimming, surfing, snorkeling, Nature, and hiking. Our interests then were a perfect fit to purchase a home at the beach in Costa Rica on the Osa Peninsula. Our favorite beaches near Villa Kristina Maria are Playa Ballena, Playa Ventanas, and Playa Hermosa.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the spectacular views and surroundings of the Rainforest gorgeous scenery and natural wildlife in this secluded gated community in the Uvita area in the Southwest Pacific region of Costa Rica. The Costa Rican people are very warm and friendly, and made us feel welcome.

This private wildlife reserve where Villa Kristina Maria is located offers an abundance of wildlife day and night. Being surrounded by Nature is a peaceful and renewing experience.

The home was designed by our friends Steve and Kathy and constructed by Ecomaderas, a local Tico contractor. We are thrilled with the way the home blends so seamlessly into the Rain forest.

What makes this property unique

We have a property manager who lives in a home nearby and can assist you during your stay with questions, home maintenance, and regular pool cleaning.

Relax during the daytime and fall asleep at night to the mesmorizing sounds of the jungle. Awaken to the distinct loud voices of Howler monkeys as they traverse through the jungle, and the squawking of green parrots flying overhead. Often you can hear the waves crashing on the beach.

Included in the vacation rental is access to our private Beach Club. The Beach Club has a nice restaurant and bar, swimming pool, shower, and restroom facilities with private access to the beach in Marina Ballena National Park. It is a beautiful tropical beach with views of Tres Hermanas rocks and Isla de Cano. The ocean water temperature is a warm 80-85 degrees year-round. Monkeys and scarlet macaws are often sighted in the trees surrounding the beach.

Villa Kristina Maria is located in the Uvita area in a private, gated, and protected wildlife reserve. It is an ideal setting for viewing the flora and fauna of more than 100 acres of primary and secondary Rainforest, streams, waterfalls, and hiking trails.
