Description
Welcome to Paradise!
This craftsman inspired tropical Villa is nestled on approximately 4 acres of a private paradise in the Rainforest jungle above the town of Uvita. The panoramic views of the ocean, Isla Ballena, Cano Island, Tres Hermanas (Three Sisters rocks), Osa Peninsula, and the Rainforest are breathtaking!
The Villa is ideally located at a comfortable elevation of 750 feet in a private gated wildlife reserve surrounded by 100+ acres of Rainforest.
Built in 2008, Villa Kristina Maria has 4 spacious bedrooms (including two master suites), 3.5 bathrooms, over 2350 sq. ft. of indoor living space plus 1500+ sq. ft. of covered wrap around decks with lounge chairs and rocking chairs for relaxing and enjoying the scenery.
The Villa offers a truly unique and private location with a spacious open floor plan designed for indoor/outdoor living, lots of windows with screens, and ceiling fans in every room and on the decks for panoramic ocean views from every room.
Relax as you sip a drink at the bar on the palapa covered deck adjacent to the sparkling tiled swimming pool that features a serene rock waterfall surrounded by lush tropical plants and flowers. The palapa deck has a wet bar with a refrigerator, several bamboo bar stools, bamboo lounge chairs, a settee, and arm chairs. You'll never want to leave!
The Villa is tropically furnished with locally crafted bamboo furniture and beautiful artwork by Costa Rican artisans. Each of the four bedrooms has an ocean view with its own covered outdoor deck and a queen sized bed, pillow top mattress, bamboo headboard, mirrored armoire wardrobe, an arm chair, ceiling fan, and private views of the jungle.
The kitchen features stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, tropical designed dishes, a breakfast bar, and is fully equipped with a toaster, electric coffee maker, blender, pots and pans, linens and cooking utensils.
The dining room with its large octagon bamboo dining table seats 6 to 8 people. You can also dine al fresco at the bamboo table on the deck, or at the palapa bar.
Enjoy the sights and sounds of nature: Howler monkeys, white-faced capuchin monkeys, white-nosed coatimundi, iguanas, toucans, parrots, many other exotic birds, beautiful butterflies including the spectacular blue morpho, dragonflies, frogs, lizards, and other jungle wildlife.
Hike to beautiful waterfalls in the nearby eco-community of the private reserve. Relax in a lounge chair and enjoy the tranquility and soothing sounds of the Rainforest, or read a book in a comfortable bamboo rocking chair on the deck.
Minutes to beautiful tropical beaches where the jungle meets the shore, and the ocean temperatures range from 80-88 degrees year around!
Convenient to delicious restaurants in Uvita, Ojochal and Dominical, banks, grocery and convenience stores, gas station, and a multitude of nearby activities that include swimming, surfing, horseback riding, whitewater rafting, fishing, boating, kayaking, snorkeling, zipline canopy tours, hiking, exploring ocean caves and rainforest waterfalls, ATV tours, learning about jungle flora and fauna on a guided hike at Hacienda Baru Wildlife Refuge, Don Lulo's horseback riding tour to Nauyaca Waterfalls, visiting Reptilandia (a reptile zoo), and shopping for souveniers at beachside open market on Playa Dominical, or at the Community Market in Uvita on Saturday mornings.
Guests who rent our Villa enjoy free use of beautiful beaches with our membership in the local Beach Club. The Beach Club has a restaurant, swimming pool, bar, restrooms, parking, and a private access to the beach in Marino Ballena National Park.
With so many dirt and gravel roads in the area, a 4-wheel drive vehicle is necessary. We would be happy to refer you to a reputable and reasonable rental car company. We also provide our guests with contact information for making reservations for nearby activities and excursions.
