Book a ride with Baru Waterfalls Tours, only 19 miles away, and you can check out a three-tiered waterfall, eat at the seasonal open-air restaurant, and maybe even pet a visiting Toucan. If you want to get out on the water, look up Dolphin Tours, just five miles away. You might just get to see some whales in addition to those dolphins, and your snorkeling trip could yield some great meetings with white tip reef sharks or moray eels. Of course, you may just want to spend your days catching some awesome waves along the shoreline. You can visit Surf Lessons Tour (five miles away) for great lessons on riding stance, balance control, and wave-catching from seasoned instructors, or you can take out some kayaks to paddle along the coast.

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Location Great, Needs Some Things
We LOVED the location! That was the treat. Not many places around that are this close to the beach. There's a washer/dryer, it was clean, there's warm water, toiletries included, and clean linens and plenty of towels. What could be better: replacing the downstairs shower curtain (it was ripping and mostly disconnected from the rod); communication (Kevin is great, just not readily available); the kitchen sink was sort of hanging with space between the counter that water was coming out of (if you're careful you can avoid this); the fans don't have adjustable settings which can be annoying during sleep; there was no tea kettle; there wasn't much silverware; there was only a large pot to cook in, nothing small/frying pans; there were no check in instructions; it could use an outdoor fan and an outdoor shower (we were told we could use the connecting property's outdoor shower, but we didn't want to disturb the guests there). Overall we recommend, and would come back because it's a beach house right on the amazing beach! Also, we'd left an expensive charger and our host met us in Uvita to return! Fabulous!!

The house is rustic, the caretaker charming however it was impossible to find and had an extremely difficult driveway entrance. In addition there were so few screens that sleeping was not possible on the first floor. Washer and dryer were inoperable making it a hassle to get clothes laundered. Vacasa did come and launder but it was not possible to dry wet towels and hand washables.

The beach access was the only asset
I loved how close to the beach it was. The price is high for what the place has to offer. Very rustic and chic decor doesn’t mean comfort. There was no dinning table, poor to not wifi, no phone signal, the fan speed could not be regulated. There were holes on the floor, rusty nails sticking out of the floor. No security and no where to secure valued items. On our last day we went to the beach and upon returning our Bose speaker went missing, we have not heard from management about it yet. I would not rent or recommend staying here.

Beautiful place!
This place is truly a gem! We loved every minute of staying there. The sound of the waves in the morning is magical along with all the animals. We saw monkeys, although the howling monkeys do start at 5am! Francisco was great as well. We will definitely be back!

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy
Poor Equipments
There are not any table. The house need some manteinance. There was no en ought bed sheets for all guest and they were not property clean. At the check in the property did not comply with a normal cleaning standard (terrace poorly cleaned). I visited the property with family and 4 children and it was not easy to have breakfast, lunch or dinner since we did not had even enough forks. (Only 4), the Keeper Francisco then gave us from the other house which was empty, the first night.
