Pura Vida!
This is a beautiful house with a great view. Lots of space. The host has a lot of good information and ideas. When told you may want a flashlight it is good advice to take. The neighborhood does on occasion loose power. Which is out of the hosts control. Good news the water works even when the power does not. Unlike, where we come from. Do also be sure to have 4 wheel drive for the driveway. We saw many new animals and insects. The pool was a great way to cool off. We would stay again.
Fun location for adventurous family w 4x4. Larger home and space than pictures. Plenty of room to spread out. Feels like the home is built into the trees. Great views and wildlife.
There are so many adventures and activities to do around the Uvita area. Claire and Bud’s place was the perfect house with a the perfect location to enjoy all Uvita has to offer. While there we enjoyed the pool and deck and were able to see lots of wildlife including sloths, monkeys, toucans, and other amazing animals. Would definitely come back and stay here if in the area.
The best time of my life!!!
This was my third stay and the other guest second stay on this property. We come back because we love the privacy and all the wildlife. Just some of the wildlife we saw: great curassows, chachalacas, crested guans, toucans, trogans, a tayra, aracacaries, coatis, and the white faced capuchins, slept in the trees next to the villa each night. The view is spectacular and the whole setting so relaxing. The pool is great for cooling down on hot afternoons and also a focus of entertainment for kids. Driving up the road into the area is part of the adventure too and everyone always watches for animals along the way. Both the casita and the villa, where we stayed, are gorgeous. We will be back!
Our stay at Villa Kristina Maria was wonderful. The homes location offers amazing views and is surrounded by jungle. We saw monkeys and toucans daily and even had some coatis visit. Hope to return in the future. Working with the owner was easy.
Stayed for three weeks and had a phenomenal time. if you like wildlife just sit out on the deck and enjoy. Toucans,monkeys, butterflies etc. The pool was great and clean. House is very roomy. Beaches unbelievable. Zip lines, waterfalls, Mangrove tour were some of the activities we did.
If you are looking for a spacious home with a gorgeous view this is the ideal location. There is an abundance of wildlife and excellent things to do in the area. This location is an experience of a lifetime. Working with Claire makes you feel at ease knowing she will help in any way possible. Thanks Claire for all the memories that will last a lifetime.
We had a most adventuresome time during our stay. We were visited by a variety of animals and enjoyed the rain that came in the late afternoon/ evenings. Claire & Bud were most gracious and helpful hosts. There was more detail than we could process, but it was all very appreciated. The food recommendations were incredible and we didn't have 1 bad meal while we were here. We loved the authentic meal we had after visiting the waterfall with Marvin. Milady is a wonderful cook. The people, the wildlife and the food, along with all the wonderful views made our time here very memorable.
We had a wonderful time in Costa Rica! Staying at Villa Christina Maria was the best decision. Very remote yet conveniently located. Our hosts were amazing. Super attentive to our travel needs before arrival. Lots of great advice and recommendations during our stay. Thank you.
