Casa Toucan, Secluded Jungle Setting with Ocean View & 40 foot Pool | House in uvita
3 Bedroom House in Ballena, uvita
Conveniently located 1000 feet above the village of Uvita, where the mountains go right down to the coast, this private 2000 square foot villa is nestled in a secluded jungle setting with ocean views from the house, patio and pool. Our property manager will meet you on your arrival to Uvita, orient you to the area, and escort you up to the house. He will drive his own vehicle up to the house and you will follow in yours. Due to the rapid rise in elevation, a 4x4 SUV will be needed. Rolando will be available to you by text, email or phone call throughout your stay for questions and issues that may arise. He will attend in person when needed.
There are ocean views across the entire west side of the house: kitchen, dining area, living room and veranda. One of the two bedrooms is set behind the veranda and can open up on it, allowing for an ocean view from bed. You do not need to bring much clothing because we have a dedicated laundry room and even provide the detergent. If you want to stay connected in the wilds, bring your laptop. The villa has WiFi. We have a Smart TV so bring your passwords for Nextflix or Amazon or take a look at our extensive film collection which you can play on our DVD. There is also a stereo system which plays Bluetooth only.
Hike right from the front door down to a nearby river, a 10 minute walk away, for a swim in a waterfall pool. Or make the 10 minute drive down to the village. Uvita is a multi-cultured community which serves as the shopping hub for the area. There are restaurants, supermarkets, a tourist information center, cafes, boutiques and shops. There is a beautiful farmer's market every Saturday morning where many local artisans sell their wares. Uvita connects to Bahia, the entrance to Marino Ballena National Park which has the Whale's Tail, a nearly 700 meter long and 250 meters wide sandbank, the third largest in the world.
Tour operators here will bring you snorkeling right off the coast at Ballena Isla or to the famous Cano Island for scuba or snorkeling. They also offer tours to Corcovado National Park across the bay for a day of hiking in one of the few primal forests left in the world. Or choose a day of deep sea fishing or tour Uvita's 1000 acre wildlife preserve. There are zip line tours and ATV tours. Go 5 miles down the Costanera to kayak on the Terraba River in the largest mangrove in all of Central America. We also have several wonderful waterfalls which you can walk to or rent a horse and ride there. The Whale's Tail divides the endless coastline of beaches into two distinct kinds. On one side, enjoy vigorous surf for both swimming and surfing. And on the other side, enjoy the calm water ideal for snorkeling.
The town of Uvita has a modern Urgent Care Center open 24/7 and has had excellent reviews. Most issues can be taken care of there but in the event of anything major they have ambulances to bring you up to the major medical center in San Jose.
With ocean breezes all day and cool mountain air at night, there is no need for air conditioning (although one bedroom has an in-wall unit). The two large bedrooms have queen sized beds (one bedroom has an additional single bed), private baths, and are separated by a spacious living room with dining area. All closets are dehumidified. Fully equipped kitchen and vaulted ceilings with palm frond ceiling fans give this home both comfort and beauty. Incredible wildlife and spectacular sunsets make Casa Toucan unforgettable. Wake up to the calls of howler monkeys and have sunset cocktails with resident toucans by your 40 foot ocean-view, very private swimming pool.
