About this property

Stylish Home - Steps to Uvita's Best Beach! Playa Colonia

Perfectly situated in the heart of Playa Colonia, one of the best beaches in town for surfing and wildlife watching, this property offers easy access to everything you need for a memorable vacation.

No need to worry about hills or long walks to the beach - this house is conveniently located just a short 10-minute walk from the doorstep to the sandy shores of the Pacific Ocean. The house is situated on a safe, quiet street with sidewalks, making it easy to explore the surrounding area.

The fully equipped kitchen is perfect for cooking up delicious meals with local ingredients, while the private pool, BBQ grill, and outdoor living space offer the perfect place to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. Bikes are available for rent, making it easy to explore the area on two wheels.

Perfect Uvita Spot
We loved the location of this home as it is convenient to the beach and adventures. Lots of good restaurants around but we took advantage of the nearby fish market to grill. The house was clean and comfortable and we found everything we needed for our week stay.

Perfect vacation rental in my favorite town in CR
We are a family of 4 that has done multiple month-long stays in vacation rentals. I speak from experience when I say that this is as close as you can get to a perfect vacation rental. Highlights include: - super clean - very responsive rental manager - has all the kitchen supplies you will need (we cooked a lot) - large fridge - air conditioning in each space keeps place cool - great internet - we had no issues with ants, spiders, roaches etc - great street with lots of nice homes. Not a busy street. - easy walk to the beach and to the grocery store - nearby Mexican restaurant has yummy food and great cocktails I love the town of Uvita too. The walking distance beach is really special and there are tons of nearby beaches to drive to and discover. There are quite a few good food options. I also love that there is food, excursions, and grocery stores that cater to tourists but there’s also a very obvious Costa Rican local culture that you can enjoy.

Wonderful!!
We were so sad to leave this place! The house is just as pictured on the website, but even more beautiful in person. It was spotless, contemporary and so incredibly easy to live in and just enjoy. There were toys and books for the kids and the kitchen was extremely well stocked. Our kids loved spending the morning at the beach and then coming back to the house to spend the afternoon in the pool. It was pure relaxation. We enjoyed exploring the beach and found the path along the beach that connects playa Colonia to Playa Chaman was perfect (great spot for monkey watching). We walked over often to get ice cream, french fries and yummy pizzas and empanadas at El Hornito (about a 10-15 minute walk). We also ate at La Choza del Alejo about 5 times during our stay-super good Mexican food just around the corner. We did a couple of grocery shops at the BM on the highway, but also used the small supermarket between the house and the beach. While we were there, the large MaxiPali (like a Walmart) opened up down the road and that was also a short walk away for groceries. The house manager in town, Stephanie, was also great-she was always a text away and was there to answer any questions. Be sure to have lunch or a sunset dinner/cocktail at the Aracari restaurant-amazing ocean views just a 5 minute drive away from the house. Good food, too! Overall, our stay was excellent and we would love to return.
