The listing pictures of this home are beautiful, and it somehow is even more beautiful in person. The views of the ocean and the rain forest are magical. The whole home is designed to engage you with nature, yet is still quite comfortable. Unforgettable, once in a lifetime experience.

Home with a View
Loved this place, the master bath floor has a giant king bed with a morning view of the ocean that is unmatched. Two additional bedrooms on the lower floor that the kids stayed in without great views and a little darker which the kids liked so they could sleep in after a long day of travel the day before. On the way in Googlemaps had us turn off the highway one dirt road earlier than necessary which doubled our dirt road travel to the subdivision. The guards were ready for us and promptly let us in. Another 10 minute ride within the subdivision and we were at the lot private gate. Four wheel drive is definitely necessary. We headed out the next day and hiked the Whales Tail which was nice. Not much wildlife and lots of people, you generally park in town and directly enter the beach area with limited walk distance through the forest. Found a fruit stand on the main road very close to the dirt road that leads back to the property (Closest Dirt Road has a sigh for the Jolly Roger bar and restaurant, unfortunately didn't test it out, looked like it has some hot wings, cold beer and great views) There was another soda for breakfast on the same dirt road for consideration. The second night we took up the owner Thomas's suggestion and had Lupita a private chef cook us dinner onsite. She did a great job on shrimp tacos, a mix of chicken and fresh snapper, and a dairy free ice cream and fruit. We had a friend from the US join us for a few Imperials and dinner

True Paradise
This house is truly incredible. The first morning I woke up to the sweeping view and sounds of the jungle I couldn’t stop smiling. Pay attention to the requirement for a 4 wheel drive car. The drive into the neighborhood is no joke. If my husband didn’t have off road experience I would not have done it. The room set up worked great for us (2 adults, kids 16, 14 & 8) but if I had younger kids the separate rooms would have felt too far from the primary suite. We spent hours in the pool, watching the jungle wildlife and enjoying the relaxing vibe. Tom, the owner, was incredibly helpful and communicative.

The Perfect Getaway
The experience we had last week was, in a word, perfect. The pictures of Villa Sea Forever are accurate but do not do the view and the experience justice. We felt like we were at the edge of the world with our own view of paradise. The Villa itself is incredible, very thoughtfully designed to bring the view in and extremely well stocked for a relaxing experience. We loved leaving the screens open at night, taking a dip in the morning and enjoying our coffee with the sunrise and the views. And the location is perfect for hiking, surfing, diving, ATVs, any number of tours, the beach, waterfalls, too much to list. The Owner was extremely attentive and very helpful. The Welcome letter was very detailed and easy to understand, finding the Villa was easy with Waze and questions were answered very quickly and he gave many recommendations on actives, dining, etc. It is clear they love the place and it shows with the attention to detail and their willingness to ensure guests have a great experience. Anyone looking for an amazing Costa Rican experience, look no further. We can't thank them enough for a great week.

Unique house with incredible views
Paradise. Tranquility. Jungle house with endless ocean views. The only drawback was that it took 25 minutes of heroine 4X4 driving on an incredibly steep road to get to the house from the main road. That ruled out a quick morning surf or walk on the beach and back to the house. You drive down and up once per day. You need a 4x4 vehicle with good power and good clearance and do NOT arrive at night. It took us +4 hrs of drive time between house and San Jose airport so plan accordingly. The mornings and evenings by the infinity pool were magic. We saw many animals in the jungle around us.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! SPECIAL EXPERIENCE!
Extraordinary is the word that comes to mind. We loved this place from the view to the energy to the vibe to the privacy and tranquility. If you want to get away to a stunningly beautiful and serene place, this is it. You DEFINITELY will NEED a 4x4 to access the property from the highway. So worth it though!!!! Owners are extremely attentive, thorough and responsive. This Balinese Limosan is truly spectacular in every way. We were so grateful to have this experience and to witness beautiful Toucans off the deck each day, hear the Howler Monkeys and the privacy and freedom to shower outdoors in nature. Highly, highly recommend. It’s so worth it.

Long Road to Paradise
This spectacular home is where the glory of a hundred-year-old Balinese Limasan meets the modern amenities of a luxurious outdoor shower with the most stunning ocean views! Just come prepared for the road to get there, which can be a bit scary, especially when you come home after dark and the fog has rolled in! A very good four-wheel drive is a must. Due to the location, plan to either stock up on groceries and chillout for a few days (nothing wrong with that), or if venturing out, plan to be out for the day. Don’t plan to go hiking or swimming at the beach, etc. and then go back to shower before heading out again for dinner. One trip down, and one trip up the hill is enough for a day. But the beauty, and peace and quiet of this location make it more than worth it! Very private and luxurious. Lastly, the host, Thomas, was super responsive and accommodating.

Spacious and open with everything drawing you the beautiful view. The space is perfect, only what you need and amazing details in the construction and decor. The perfect get away house. You need a 4x4 to get to the location as it's up in the steep hills on mostly non-paved roads. The power went out once but only for a short time.

Amazing place and views, but a journey
The house was beautiful and well appointed. It is magical to wake up from your bed and see the Pacific! The location provided beautiful views and intimate privacy but you have to be willing to take a 15-20 minute harrowing drive one way to get to the house or back to the main road. This makes a daily “daytrip” the most plausible option where you leave in the morning and return after dinner. We got evening rains regularly so the drive back up was even more interesting. The area is fantastic however, with many different beaches, nearby towns and restaurants.

Place out of a dream!
My husband and I spent a few days here on our honeymoon. Thomas’s place is nothing short of divine! The sheer beauty and peace of this property is indescribable. While the location feels completely remote and isolated, there is a phenomenal restaurant, store, and cafe just around the corner! It is also super close to Dominical, which is an enchanted little surf town at the bottom of the mountain. Thomas was completely reachable and even provided a hand drawn map from the gate of the neighborhood to the house location. If you want an out-of-this-world experience, look no further!

The drive to the main road is around 15 minutes, yes it is steep, but not unusual for Costa Rica, don’t let that keep you from experiencing this wonderful property. Hope to return again sometime.

Vacation in Heaven
My husband and I fell madly in love with this property and Uvita. Leaving SJO was scary due to traffic but once we got out of the city we felt better. The drive is about three hours from SJO so I would suggest making sure you have daylight your first day finding the home. You do need a 4x4, 4WD to get up the mountain. We honestly didn’t want to come back home to Texas once our 6 days were up. A Coati came up on the patio one morning while I was sitting in a chair. We slept with the glass doors open every night while having the fans on and it never got hot. We both slept so good each night. The sunrise and sunset every day is breathtaking. You can hear the monkeys in the trees right in front of the home. The first night it scared me but once I realized they are harmless I enjoyed them. I cannot say enough positive things about this home and it’s perfect location. We will definitely be back to CR and we will be staying at this home again.

Magnificent Hidden Retreat with Priceless Views
This was a much-needed get-away I couldn't have asked for a more perfect retreat. If you love and appreciate nature, this is the place to be; the views were incredible to say the least, and the breezy, jungle life welcomed us each and every morning (visits from Toucan Sam himself) and into the gorgeous night. Arriving was easy and made pleasant with walking into a spotless home. It had everything we needed to cook a few meals in and relax and enjoy the day without feeling the need to rush and sightsee. The owner even stopped by, after asking us if it was okay, to ensure we had everything we needed while sharing some must-see local attractions with us. I highly recommend this place for a short or longer stay as the value far exceeds what we paid and the experience was beyond my expectations. I am already set on staying here again when I return to Costa Rica for the second time this year!

Nice view but fell short of basic expectations
This was our 5th time to CR. The view from the house is great. Off to the right, the sunset is obscured by a section of jungle. Something to keep in mind if you're after epic sunset photos. The property has minimal landscaping and a large bare lawn with one main tree. The reasons for the removal of two stars is 1. the house was not cleaned when we arrived, 2. kitchen sucked, and 3. privacy interruption. We arrived at check in time (2pm) and stepped in poop in the entryway while taking in the view. This could have happened after cleaning but it was a shock. We first found the kitchen counters were dirty, as were coffee maker and top of microwave. The kitchen trash was not taken out and had old coffee grounds. The large outdoor trash can was almost full from last guests. The toilet room was not cleaned and I’ll the spare the details. After over an hour of cleaning, we FINALLY were able to relax. I took photos of most of the issues before we resolved them. I contacted the owner and was told if I had checked in early, then it was our fault it wasn’t cleaned. We arrived at check in time, listed as 2pm. Then he said the prior guests had checked out very late and this made cleaning impossible. This story later changed and I was told it actually was cleaned and everyone was “very confused”. I almost felt as if we were blamed for the state of the place. I stated several times we wanted uninterrupted privacy and additional cleaning was not needed. The manager showed up 8am Friday, no mask, while I was undressed. Luckily, the door was closed and my boyfriend went outside so he didn’t come in any further. This was day 7 of our stay and we were not told he was coming. The kitchen is not adequate for preparing more than coffee and cereal. The dishes are not microwave safe, the can opener had the thickest coat of rust I’ve ever seen. We threw it away and bought a new one. There’s no large knife, the only straight blade is jagged from years of use. These are safety issues. They list an oven but there isn’t one. The listed grill is filthy. These issues can easily be remedied. The sponge was moldy and hadn't been replaced in at least several stays so we also replaced. We ate out most meals as a result. I hope this feedback is used to make it better for future guests. I hope to not hear we are not "adventurous" enough for this rustic rental, which is quite far from the truth. If the view is the only redeeming quality, well you're in CR, epic views abound.
