Holiday houses in Ballena

AMAZING! Brendon, Moises, and the area all exceeded expectations! I would give more stars on my rating if it were possible. The home is a vacation in itself and the surrounding area is full of adventures. Just from the pool area at the home, you can see mountains, jungle, ocean, river and an abundance of wildlife! Then you get in a car and drive 20min to experience all of those same things up close and personal. If you love outdoors, wildlife and you have an adventurous spirit to try new things, this is the place to be at! The region still has some of the remoteness of less developed areas alongside all the conveniences of developed areas within a short drive. This is hands down our favorite stay we have had and we have been to a lot of places! We stayed 2 weeks here and can’t wait to come back! The home is modern comfortable and has the most spectacular views I have ever seen. Loved having my coffee and just seeing all the Macaw’s, Toucan’s, parrots, and numerous wildlife every day!

This place was extremely beautiful, the pool view overlooking the mountains and the beach was really something else. It was really nice to look at the animals from the view as well. The location is pretty close to the beach as well as all the restaurants which was nice. The place itself was super clean and one of the nicest setups we’ve been to. Although our reservation didn’t go as planned, Craig was very accommodating with us and we really appreciated his understanding and kindness throughout our trip. Would definitely recommend this place and come back again another time!

Uvita is nothing short of amazing. The house is beautiful, a little wear and tear but overall a great house. Couple things to note, the sun rises around 5am and it gets bright, so bring a sleep mask if that will bother you. It gets dark early and maps are a little tricky so get comfortable with finding the house before venturing out at night. Having housekeeping was great and all the assistance for excursions, car rentals, and transfers was super helpful. Make sure you go to los laureles. Great food and wonderful people. The ATV tour was really fun, highly recommend the 2 seaters. Definitely recommend close toed water shoes, getting to the beaches in Costa Rica can be a little tricky and they’re great if you go to waterfalls (which you definitely should go to Uvita waterfall and slide down the waterfall!) use google maps, Waze will mislead you. Enjoy this beautiful country and home!

Wow!10/10…. Beatas place has been the best place we have stayed in. Not only is the design beautiful but also extremely clean and spacious. Beata is also very detailed and reached out prior to arriving to ask if a crib is needed since I was traveling with my 1 year old, very thoughtful of her, as offer the crib and fresh blankets for baby were there as soon as we arrived. I can’t say much about the area as we were in town for a wedding and all activities were planned ahead of time, but we did appreciate the closeness of many restaurants and stores, we also got to go to the farmers market on Saturday morning which was great to see. Will definitely like to come back and do a humpback whale tour when their in season and baby is older to witness.

This place is as beautiful as the photos & the view is unimaginable! It was our last stop on our tour of CR and such a beautiful and relaxing way to end our trip. The entire property management group were fabulous. We had responsive communication and great care. Do yourself a favor and book this house! Let me caution you one thing, when they tell you to make sure you have a 4 wheel drive vehicle it is NO JOKE! If it’s your first visit to Uvita, you have no clue what the roads are like there. I promise you it is worth the adventure up the hill to the house but take it from me, not just any suv will do. We ended up upgrading our RAV4 rental mid trip to a Toyota Fortuner with a proper 4 wheel drive system to enable us to actually make it to the house after our first attempt at the drive. Book this house and book the right vehicle and enjoy the amazing views!

From the moment we arrived, we were blown away! The place was exactly as pictured—spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and filled with thoughtful touches that made it feel like home (but better!). The host was incredibly responsive and kind, offering local tips and going above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect.

Amazing house, pool, and location - close to everything in Uvita, yet secluded. The pictures of the view from the deck and pool don't do it justice. The house was very clean, and the hosts were easy to communicate with. Would definitely recommend this home to others.

It was awesome. It felt like our own private nature preserve! We saw monkeys, pizote, anteaters, and SO many toucans. The space was gorgeous and we used the pool to cool down many times a day when we weren't in the ocean. The views were unmatched. Moeses was so helpful and responsive. The jungle is extremely active at night so be prepared for all the sounds. Thanks for a wonderful honeymoon spot!
