Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Rivas

Such a perfect little spot for us on our way to San Jose. Loved the convenient location and ease of getting in and out. The house is super thoughtful and well designed with lots of light, nice kitchen and bath and a beautiful green space out back. Very peaceful at night and it felt very secure with the car behind a big gate. We will be back. Thank you! Recommended!

Cynthia welcomed My wife and I with open arms. Very sweet and informative about where we were staying, local recommendations, access to a gorgeous private beach and things to watch out for during our stay!

From the moment we arrived, this home had such a beautiful, welcoming, home-y feeling. It’s located in a fantastic area—surrounded by great restaurants and plenty of things to do. The pool was warm, clean, and incredibly refreshing—perfect for relaxing after a day out. The host was amazing! She went above and beyond, offering personalized restaurant recommendations (we tried several and loved them) and sharing tons of helpful details about local excursions and activities. She even offered to help us book them! While we only had time for the 90-minute massage (which was wonderful), we could tell she really knows her stuff and is passionate about making her guests’ stay unforgettable. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a relaxing, well-located getaway with an exceptional host. We’d definitely stay again! 🌴✨

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.

Very clear instructions on where to go and how to get into the house when you arrive. Easy checking in and checking out. Location is beautiful! VERY short drive to a lot of restaurants and a large supermarket. We bought groceries and cooked breakfast most mornings and a couple of dinners. There was plenty of kitchenware, a great stove, and an outdoor grill that made cooking easy. The one thing to note if you are from the USA, is that this is a Costa Rican style home. There is no air conditioning in the kitchen, and no indoor living room. Sitting spaces are outside with no climate control. The bedrooms are spread out, and the only access to most bedrooms is from the exterior balcony or patio. All bedrooms had their own air-conditioning units and were very comfortable to sleep in at night. The neighborhood is very quiet and the property is gated. We felt completely safe staying there with seven kids in our group. If we’re ever in the area again we would definitely stay again!!!

Such an amazing oasis! Lori was such an amazing host. She walked us around the property and was always available. We woke up to howler monkeys and toucans. The home was clean and well equipped! Perfect for two couples! We will definitely be back to visit!

If you're looking for peace & quiet with a stellar view - look no further! The bed was comfy, the blankets were cozy, & it had everything needed for a relaxing getaway. Directions to find the place we're spot on. There's a small amount of gravel road that I needed to navigate but it was in good shape (4x4 wasn't necessary). If you're expecting hot & humid, this isn't your place. It's cool in the mornings & evenings but nothing a sweater can't handle. There's a super cozy fireplace that really allows you to settle in for some Netflix at the end of a busy day of tours or hiking. Very private - I only saw cars in the road but heard nothing but birds & nature. This place is exactly as described & so lovely. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again! Ricardo was a superb host - kind, generous, & hospitable. He made sure I had everything I needed. There's some great restaurants nearby & every morning Turrialba Volcano greets you in the distance.

Daryl fue muy amable y comunicativo, el Airbnb estaba muy limpio y organizado, me gustó que es moderno y brinda bastantes comodidades. Sin duda volvería nuevamente con mi familia. Gracias por todo ❤️

Loved our time there! We loved being surrounded by the nature and the animals such as chickens cows. We even saw a couple of monkeys swinging from palm tree to palm tree right outside our window. The kitchen is fully stocked and ready to be used. We loved having a breakfast made by the hosts mom (it was delicious). The only thing was that there wasn’t any soap, but we had our own so no problem. Very central to quepos, jaco, dominical and uvita. Very near gorgeous beaches!

We loved this Airbnb! If you’re planning to spend time in Dominical, this location is perfect. Steps to the beach, steps to restaurants and bars…perfect. The unit was clean, comfortable, and quiet at night. Communication with Teri was fantastic. Her check-in instructions were, by far, the most detailed I have seen. Lovely pool, bikes were a nice touch. All in all, a 5-star Airbnb.

I couldn’t be happier with this Airbnb!! My husband and I booked Brian & Karla’s Casita for a week to enjoy our honeymoon. I wish we’d booked it even longer. This place has a way of making you feel completely unplugged from society, all the while being as modern as it gets. Pictures don’t do it justice! The wrap around balcony was perfect for evening sunsets, and the inside of the Casita was a perfect place to relax after adventuring Costa Rica. The Casita is a short drive down the mountain to Dominical, which has tons of local restaurants - Brian’s recommendations were spot on! You are also super close to Nuayaca Waterfalls, Uvita, and Manuel Antonio! Brian is an amazing host and quickly responded whenever we had questions. Him and his wife even made us dinner one night. We highly recommend this airbnb and we would book at Brian’s 1000x over! Pura Vida

Fue un excelente hospedaje. La canina estaba impecable al llegar y siempre que necesitamos contactarlos estaban atentos a ayudarnos. El lugar aparte de estar muy bien cuidado y rodeado de maravillosa naturaleza, cuenta inclusive con todos los utensilios necesarios para cocinar, teniendo aún la delicadeza de poner a disposición diversos aceites o sazonadores para cocinar. Las camas estaban impecables, el baño igual, con los paños a disposición doblados de una manera muy elegante y la ducha contaba con champú y acondicionador. Asimismo tienen un “brochure” en inglés y español sobre lo que se puede disfrutar en la zona, ofreciendo su ayuda de ser necesario! Al igual que cuentan sobre los diferentes restaurantes que hay cerca y cuentan con una opción en la cual los huéspedes pueden pedir brunch para entrega en el lugar de un restaurante local. En síntesis, fue una excelente experiencia que todos disfrutamos y 100% sus instalaciones son PetFriendly!

La anfitriona muy amable y comunicativa. El lugar precioso, una vista estupenda del mar, muy ordenado, limpio, muy tranquilo, la naturaleza hermosa.

Tolles AirBnB-Zimmer in einer Hotelanlage. Sehr toller und grosser Balkon mit super Blick über den Garten und das Meer. In Mitten von Tieren und wunderbarer Vegetation. Tolle hoteleigene Trails und sehr schöner Poolbereich. Sehr gutes Essen und freundliches Personal. Sehr schnelle Reaktion auf Fragen und sehr hilfreiche Hinweise. Sehr empfehlenswert !

Un lugar muy acogedor,tranquilo,seguro y limpio, cuando entras a la villa huele muy rico y está equipada con lo necesario para pasar una buena estadia. Aprovechamos la piscina y el rancho para hacer una carne asada. Cuando necesitamos ayuda,rapidamente nos solucionaron

Outstanding view. Everything was clean, the canavida team was very responsive all time. We had a seamless self-checkin. I definitely recommend the place. I loved it.

Good value, and helpful host. Would stay again

Por encima de todo fue excelente Nos sorprendió llegar y ver un lugar tan hermoso, ordenado, organizado y limpio, la piscina es bastante honda (Unos 1.70cm ya que mido 1.47 y no alcanzaba el fondo) Lo cual es bastante comodo para nadar a gusto y sumergirse un rato, la cocina está muy muy bien equipada⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Con el Victor no tuve que esperar ni 2 minutos a que me respondiera, siempre dió con el resultado de mis consultas, y Gabriela sin duda a alguna muy muy amable y atenta a nuestras necesidades, el lugar está igual que en las fotos, cerca de playas y el lugar es muy muy tranquilo para darse una caminata, ir a comer, playa e incluso cataratas(a 10 minutos en auto) Lo recomiendo bastante, en definitiva volveremos algún día⭐⭐⭐⭐

Marlene went above and beyond during our stay. If I come back to Uvita, I am definitely going to come back to this place!

Great communication with Joe and his caretaker Yony, who is available and very helpful. It is an excellent rental choice for someone who wants to work and enjoy at the same time. Upon arrival, the fridge made a loud sound, and when asked, Joe immediately suggested I switch to another unit until he could fix the issue, which was perfect. During my one-month stay, I had a noise issue (a neighbor in a house nearby who was listening to loud music for one day), but Joe and Yony solved the problem immediately. I asked Yony several times about things, and he always helped me. Knowing Costa Rica for years, I value this quality of service and responsiveness much more than a better price or more amenities. This is why I highly recommend this rent, especially if you want to stay more than 1 or 2 nights.

Diana’s place was absolutely amazing. Pictures do not do it justice. The views were incredible in the morning with all the glass windows. Diana was the Most helpful host we have had, giving us extra blankets, binoculars for the kids, and beach chairs and toys. U will not regret this stay! Cant wait to come stay again.

I came for a yoga and meditation retreat. This was the perfect 1 bedroom home to base myself, kitchen to cook each day, nice hill to go for morning walking and hikes, large lounge and balcony to practice my morning yoga. Good internet to do my work at the computer. Good air conditioning to keep cool when in the house. Lizzet was always responsive and helpful. High recommend.

This place is exactly as it looks and is described, which makes it a good Airbnb and good value (at the price as of April 2025 at least). Carles and his co-host communicate well and everything about the place is easy (easy to find, check-in, care for, etc). It isn't fancy but it is nice/well-built (small things like the shower water doesn't get all over the bathroom like with many similar shower setups) and comfortably arranged for 1-2 people with 2 desks for working etc. Would absolutely return. Downsides, if you want to know them: the immediate surrounding area is nothing special (it's in a nondescript small development), and there was quite a bit of noise in the morning, including starting at 5:30am on Saturday (this may be temporary/construction). It didn't interfere with my enjoyment, but it is good to know.

We enjoyed our time in Uvita! The space was comfortable! Marlène was prompt in responding! The pool was fabulous after our adventures on hot days! The location was great! 15 minute casual walk to Marina Ballena National Park (The Whale’s Tail)! I would definitely stay here again when in the area!
