We loved it here!! The sunsets were absolutely stunning. The owner was super nice and if we had any questions or needed anything a staff member was there quickly to help. The villa had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We rented a 2x4 car and was able to get there, you just have to give it some gas in a couple of places. Highly recommend staying here.

Our favourite stay while in Costa Rica. The villa was absolutely wonderful. We had everything we needed and more. We had an amazing panoramic view with lots of wildlife. I already miss my morning coffee on the patio with the amazing view and nature sounds.

Canavida has got to be the best place to stay in Uvita. Staying here included an exceptional view from the condos, a very clean room and the most accommodating and kind owners. It is clear that the owners love taking care of their customers and accommodation. We asked for a second mattress as we found the sofa bed uncomfortable and they personally delivered a second mattress to our room. In addition the communication from the staff at Canavida was exceptional. My favourite part of our stay was the gorgeous sea view from the condos, especially during sunset. My only regret is I didn’t book a longer stay at Canavida.

Love this property! This is our second time staying here and highly recommend. The property has amazing views, the rooms/villa are all new and well appointed with all you may need. I recommend a 4x4 as it is up the hill but the drive is well worth it. Communication is always amazing.

Although the location is a little out of the way, about 5km up the mountain on a rocky road, the view was amazing! Rooms were clean and employees were helpful! We had a little trouble with the ac but they were very attentive and brought fans right away until we got it squared away. They also helped with activity recommendations and bookings. We had in room massages that were awesome!

We stayed for 8 nights in the Caracara house. It had everything we needed and had a great stay! Alberto and all the staff were helpful, friendly and amazing. The views were breath taking. We stayed in June 2025, during the rainy season and were so thankful we rented a 4wheel drive vehicle. We explored a lot and had a blast!

Absolutely amazing location with stunning views. The property is new, well maintained, clean and has everything to need for your stay. We stayed in the Tucan villa, the pool was perfect and the covered deck was great on warm rainy days. The staff was super friendly and easy to connect with through What’sApp. Uvita beach is a short drive away, lots of good restaurants nearby. We stayed 12 nights and didn’t want to leave! We will definitely come back here if in Costa Rica again.
