About this property

This home located in the popular and trendy Costa Ballena, boasts spectacular ocean, jungle and sunset views. It has a seamless indoor/outdoor open floor plan. You can mix a drink at the accessible wet bar, fold the doors back and step out onto a covered deck to the amazing infinity edge pool or lounge on the sundeck while watching the sun drop into the Pacific Ocean. Walk up the beautiful wooden staircase to the second story to find a comfortable loft area where you will find yourself taking a siesta, reading a book or simply gazing out a floor to ceiling window to the ocean. Two large master suites each have private viewing decks overlooking the pool area where you will wake up to vistas of Cano island, the Tres Hermanas and Isla Ballena. A 5 minute drive off the paved road, this gated home is on a very private and quiet gravel road (4x4 accessible). You and your friends/family will enjoy cooling mountain breezes after spending your days on eco tours, surfing, outdoor adventures or walking the many lush beaches within 5 minute drive on the main highway including the Ballena National Park, Playa Pinuela, Playa Ventanas and Playa Tortuga. You will hear the soothing waves while relaxing on the deck or in the pool.
With unobstructed ocean views, you will feel like you own the mountain in this comfortable, beautifully decorated home and very quiet jungle setting. The property sits directly on a monkey trail, so Monkeys, Toucans, Maccaws, parrots and all other local wildlife are frequently seen in the trees surrounding the property. The modern design is in itself calming and peaceful, and when combined with this spectacular setting you will find yourself completely relaxed.
Perfectly situated between the towns of Uvita and Ojochal, you will love all of the spectacular restaurants with international cuisine in Ojochal or Uvita. Within 20-25 minutes, Dominical, a local surf town, has a reggae vibe and fun, eclectic restaurants as well.
We look to sharing our lovely new with you and your guests.

A Spectacular Place to Stay!

As soon as we arrived at the property we were amazed by how spectacular both the view and the home were. We lived in the home for 6 weeks and we loved every minute of it. The home is in a perfect location between Uvita and Ojochal providing access to both towns within minutes. The road leading up to the house is great, with many sections paved and very well maintained, as well the home is not too far off the main highway, but far enough up the mountain to get a nice breeze and is in a quiet area. The home is beautiful, so well thought out and has everything you could possibly need. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and incredibly comfortable, with phenomenal balconies and views. The main floor is completely open concept leading out to the amazing pool which we swam in every single day we were there. Kitchen has every possible item you need. Living room is super comfortable and the "widow" to the ocean is a really cool feature. We loved sitting out by the pool watching the spectacular sunset each night. Lots of beautiful birds and monkeys around the property as well for all the photographers out there. We worked remotely for 6 weeks, Wifi is excellent and with the back up battery pack you never loose Wifi even if the power goes out. Hosts are super responsive and will help with anything needed. We highly recommend this home!

Absolute Heaven

The home, view, and surroundings are stunning. Our stay was profoundly peaceful. The photos can't even do it justice. This is a magical place and if you're considering staying here, just do it. It's the ultimate.

Great vacation In Uvita, Costa Rica

The house is very comfortable, the location is great, nestled in between Ojachal and Uvita, with plenty of beach choices. We especially loved beginning our day and coming home to the pool and deck area with its breath-taking views of the Pacific. The downstairs large open space is very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped and easy to work in. The house is well stocked with plenty of towels and linens. The beach chairs and umbrella were very handy. The house has 2 large master bedrooms, layout works well for 2 couples. There is also a daybed in the upstair hallway. Chris, our caretaker, was very willing and able to answer any questions we had throughout our stay. We had a very nice stay and would highly recommend this house.

Gorgeous sunset

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house is beautiful, the views spectacular, and the property manager, Chris, was very helpful. The kitchen was very well equipped too. The house is conveniently located between Ojochal and Uvita. You definitely need a 4x4 to get the house.

Sunset Paradise

This is a lovely property with fantastic views of the sunset over the ocean. We stayed for 3.5 weeks and had friends visit for a few days. It is very private, up a road not far off of the Panamerican Highway. A 4 wheel drive vehicle is a must. The house is very well maintained and clean and surrounded by beautiful gardens which ensure many butterflies and some hummingbirds. On hikes nearby, we saw coati (the Ticos call them pizote) and agoutis along with Toucans and many other beautiful birds. We only used the air conditioning in the bedrooms the first night, as fans and the breeze through the many screened windows keep things very pleasantly cool. There is a new water system, which experienced a couple of glitches during our visit, but Chris, the property manager, was incredibly responsive for those issues, as well as anything else that arose, and he provided great advice about things to see and do. There are many spectacular local waterfalls (with pools for swimming) and great beaches. The house pool is wonderful. The property is very well appointed (but bring your cocktail shaker!) with lovely dual primary suites. Our only negative was that the water pressure for the showers was pretty low, but this was far outweighed by the many positives of this wonderful villa.
