Our Bungalow Punta Uva • 3BR Beachfront with A/C - Houses for Rent in Puerto Viejo de talamanca, Limón Province, Costa Rica

Beautiful home with just as beautiful yard. Kitchen was well appointed with appliances and utensils but you do need to get cooking oil etc if you plan to cook. Steps from the breach and walking distance to a few restaurants. Easy to get to several locations right up the road. Puerto Viejo was a quick 15m drive. The beach it sits on is stunning and good for boogie boarding or strong swimmers. The amount of wildlife we saw was amazing, including a cute little black cat that would follow us to and from the beach. Home was clean and had bath towels and beach towels. There is also a dryer line at the side of the home that was well appreciated after all the beach trips. Also appreciated the water filter/dispenser right in the home. Hosts were extremely responsive had tons of local recommendations, helped with side by side rental, tour info and private transport. Every question I had during the stay was answered in minutes.

A beautiful beach house, cozy, the host is very attentive to everything, the house is super clean, everything is very nice, the beach is beautiful. I would come back again in a heartbeat.

Una casa de playa hermosa, acogedora el anfitrion muy atento con todo la casa super limpia todo muy bonito la playa hermosa volveria de nuevo sin dudarlo

house was perfect for our family of 4. we saw tons of wild life. There were 6 beautiful green parrots we saw daily. We found a sloth on the beach trail our first day and 2 more in a tree over the road right outside of the drive way. so cool!!

Location could not be better. This place was wonderful, beautiful gardens, right next to the beach, you can hear the waves from the front porch. You can walk to many places to get something to eat, but we stopped at the local store and made our own meals, the kitchen is fully equipped. We would love to come back for more ocean swims.

It's perfect and cozy; the backyard is literally the beach. It also has a large parking lot and a green area that is part of the property 😍

Es perfecta y acogedora, literalmente el patio es la playa. Además cuenta con un gran parqueo y zona verde que es parte de la propiedad 😍

Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this Airbnb. The home itself was beautiful, well-appointed, and had everything we needed to cook, relax, and feel comfortable throughout our stay. The grounds were just as lovely, with plenty of grass, hammocks to relax in, and a peaceful setting where you can sit outside and enjoy the sounds of birds and nature. But the absolute highlight is the location — you are literally about 20 steps from the beach. It’s hard to ask for anything better, especially because this is arguably one of the best beaches in Costa Rica. A local even told us they consider it the best beach in the country. The hosts and hospitality were also excellent. They were kind, responsive, answered our questions, and even helped us book excursions, which made the trip feel easy and seamless. All in all, this was one of our favorite Airbnb stays. We would absolutely love to come back and stay again. Pura Vida!

Amazing Location, unfortunately we had a power outtage for several hours but thats part of life in that area - nothing the host could have done

We loved our stay.  Definitely would recommend to my friends and family.

Very nice and clean house. Right at the beach which was THE BEST thing about this place. The beach is beautiful and easy to swim for a good swimmer. Not too many people although it’s a public beach. The beach is clean. And the people keep it clean. The house is clean and well kept. Had a very nice and relaxing stay. Thank you casas del caribe 🌷

The house is practical and location is unbeatable. The host was very helpful and responsive. Definitely worth it and highly recommended!

Beautiful house, with an excellent location facing the ocean and surrounded by nature

Hermosa casa, con excelente ubicación frente al mar y rodeada de naturaleza

Beautiful place just steps from Punta Uva public beach! Secure grounds, clean and cool home. Comfy beds, A/C, nice showers. We really enjoyed our stay! We visited Jaguar Rescue Center and Ara Manzanillo (the Green Macaw Rescue Center) both about a 10 minute drive. We made meals at the house and went to Arrecife Bar & Restaurant, just a short walk up the playa. Yum! Every morning we had howler monkeys, macaws, toucans, various songbirds, lizards, iguanas, giant crickets, & crabs. We didn’t see a sloth but other people said there was one on the beach access road. The waves on this beach are rough but we enjoyed swimming and body surfing. Friendly locals. We bought the handmade jewelry and the cold coconuts they were selling up and down the beach. My wife got her hair braided and a massage the first day. They didn’t bother us too much the rest of the time. And the sweet little black cat greeted us and stayed nearby the whole time. The kids loved her.

The property is unique and is in front of the sea, which makes the experience quite pleasant. The hosts kept in constant communication and we had no problems. The house was in good condition and had what we needed to spend time with the family. I recommend this house for anyone who wants to go to Puerto Viejo in general or if you are looking for Punta Uva.

La propiedad es única y es al frente del mar lo cuál hace que la experiencia sea bastante agradable. Los anfitriones mantuvieron una comunicación constante y no tuvimos ningún problema. La casa estaba en buenas condiciones y tenía lo que ocupábamos para pasar tiempo en familia. Recomiendo esta casa para cualquiera que quiera ir a Puerto Viejo en general o si busca que sea en Punta Uva.

The place is beautiful, with access to a dream beach. From the beginning, communication was good and fast. The house is impeccable. I would definitely go back

El lugar es precioso, con acceso a una playa de ensueño. Desde el inicio la comunicación fue buena y rápida. La casa impecable. Definitivamente volvería a ir

An ideal house to rest and have a good time with an incredible beach at the front, plenty of space to play with your pet and also have a great time having a barbecue and listening to the Sea in the background. I recommend it 20/10

Una casa ideal para descansar y pasarla bien con una increíble playa al frente, mucho espacio para poder jugar con tu mascota y también pasarla muy bien haciendo una parrillada y escuchando el Mar al fondo. Lo recomiendo 20/10

It was super good. The instructions were clear and the location is unique and spectacular. On the first night it rained too much in the early morning and a leak started falling in the main room, right on the bed; we did the report and the next morning the hosts sent staff to review/repair. We will definitely be back, we love that beach and the house really very nice, relaxing and safe. 100% recommended

Nos fue súper bien. Las instrucciones fueron claras y la ubicación es única y espectacular. En la primera noche llovió demasiado en la madrugada y una gotera empezó a caer en el cuarto principal, justo sobre la cama; hicimos el reporte y a la mañana siguiente los anfitriones mandaron personal a revisar/reparar. Definitivamente volveremos, nos encanta esa playa y la casa realmente muy muy linda, relajante y segura. Recomendada al 100%

The best part about this place is the location. It is beautiful. We loved the beach. It was quiet and restful. The beach was significantly busier on Saturday and Sunday but didn't bother us.

This house was well maintained and located but it is managed by a company called "Casas del Caribe", which is a total disaster.  First of all, they forced me to carry out communications via text avoiding the Airbnb messaging system, so they could do whatever they want away from Airbnb's supervision.  Then, they contacted me on Dec 24th to tell me my house would not be available for check-in on Dec 25th -less than 24-hour notice.  They said the owner of the house was staying in it and refused to leave.  Since they manage several other properties, they forced me to take another house of much lower quality, without AC, in a different part of town, and gave me no choice.  It was either accept what they threw at me or cancel my family X-mas vacation.  After spending the first night miserable without AC, I contacted Airbnb and their customer service support team forced them to give me the house I had reserved.  Then, they refused to pay the difference and again Airbnb had to step in to help.

Nos disculpamos profundamente lo sucedido con esta reserva y entendemos que no fue la experiencia ideal. Sin embargo, es importante aclarar varios puntos para quienes leen esta reseña. Tuvimos una emergencia inesperada con la casa original, algo fuera de nuestro control y, en plena temporada alta, ofrecimos la única opción disponible en ese momento. Era eso o cancelar su estadía, y nuestra prioridad siempre fue encontrar una solución, no dejar a una familia sin un lugar donde pasar Navidad. Al día siguiente, logramos reubicar al cliente en la casa que originalmente había reservado, y en todo momento nos mostramos dispuestos a ofrecer el reembolso correspondiente. Nunca nos negamos ni pusimos trabas. El cliente menciona que tuvo que intervenir Airbnb, lo cual es completamente falso. En ningún momento Airbnb tuvo que mediar entre nosotros. Únicamente envió una solicitud de dinero adicional, el cual nosotros aceptamos. Todo se gestionó directamente con el cliente, y siempre accedimos a sus solicitudes. Nos entristece ver este tipo de reseñas donde, después de haber hecho todo lo posible con las herramientas que teníamos en ese momento, se distorsionan los hechos para hacernos quedar mal, especialmente de un cliente que también es anfitrión y sabe cómo estas reseñas nos puedan perjudicar. Afortunadamente, nuestras demás reseñas reflejan el verdadero compromiso y el servicio que ofrecemos a todos nuestros huéspedes. Gracias por leer y confiar en nosotros. Equipo de Casas del Caribe

This place was a great little house. Right in front of the beach. I just think they should leave extra towel to shower. I had to use the same one over and over,  you do shower at least twice a day. Especially if you go to the beach. The beach was dirty, they should at least get someone to clean the area that is in front of the house. Specially  when you have all this little dead fishes all over the beach… but overall we did have a great time and I relaxed hearing the waves everyday.

Excelente Lugar wonderful location and excellent company of Casas del Caribe

Excelente Lugar maravillosa ubicación y excelente compañia de Casas del Caribe

Unbelievably nice place. We wished we had more time in the house and would highly recommend to others. Located right next to the beach. If it was for sale and I had the money, I’d buy it ten times. Great stay.

An excellent place to relax and enjoy the beach that is a few steps away, I felt right at home, everything was very clean and a very easy check-in. We had a great time, everything was just like in the pictures.

Un excelente lugar muy tranquilo para relajarse y disfrutar la playa que está a unos pasos, me sentí como en casa, todo muy limpio y un check-in muy fácil. La pasamos muy bien, todo como en las fotos.

This place was perfection. I don’t think I’ll want to ever stay anywhere else when visiting the area. The hosts were extremely helpful in arranging rentals or tours, the home itself is beautiful, spacious and the a/c made for great sleep.

Really lovely bungalow just a few steps from the beach.  Check-in was super easy, the place is spacious and nicely decorated, and the direct private access to a beautiful beach can't be beat.  The ocean directly outside was a bit rougher (there's some reefs right there) but still fine for our kids to play and jump waves, and it was just a three minute walk to a more sheltered beach on the other side of the point.  As others have noted, the kitchen was a bit barebones but we didn't really use it as it's easy to access a variety of nearby restaurants.   We were there during the week, so the beach was largely empty - as we left on Saturday it looked like a fair number of people were arriving, so weekends might be a bit more hectic. All in all, a great place to relax in Punta Uva and enjoy the vibe of the area.

The place was in a great and beautiful location. Well maintained grounds. The house was very clean. I liked it very much. The only issues I have is with the master bedroom A/C, the exhaust pipe going out the window and if the door wasn't open it didn't get very cool at all and would be extremely stuffy. Blackout curtains for the sun and for the windows along the street area is very much needed IMO. The place and grounds were great. The host is very responsive.

We loved our stay at the Bungalow. Family of 5, kids aged 14, 12 and 10. The house was very clean and had all the amenities we needed, although the kitchen is basic we didn't need anything more and ate out a lot; so many restaurants a short tuk tuk ride away, as well as two within walking distance. The beach out the front is steps away, it is stunning, it gets very busy on the weekend but we could always reserve our spot before the crowds arrived. Had a few days where it was very calm and we could go for night swims, then a few days where the waves were very big and the kids had so much fun swimming. Not great for surfing out the front, the kids had lessons at Playa Grande, highly recommend  the Caribbean Surf School. Really easy to get Tuk Tuks into Puerto Viejo, about $10USD, we much preferred Playa Cocles and Chiquita; really laid back with much nicer restaurants. Highly recommend a trip to Bri Bri waterfalls! Great family holiday, highly recommend.

Accommodation matched the description, beautiful place by the beach

Ubytování odpovídalo popisu, krásné místo u pláže

I really liked this place! Beach proximity is amazing and privacy is very good. Communication with the property manager was very good and easy. Highly recommended for spending a quiet time!

Me gustó mucho este lugar! La cercanía a la playa es increíble y la privacidad muy buena. La comunicación con el property manager fue muy buena y fácil. Súper recomendado para pasar un rato tranquilo!

Beach right out front is amazing.  Perfectly met our needs.  Could easily access everything we wanted to do.

The place is beautiful and as pictured. The location on the beach is completely unbeatable. That said, it is very expensive to get that location and some aspects don't quite hit that high price (the kitchen is ok but definitely a "beach kitchen", and the couches/living room is very makeshift, for example). I think in the end it is worth it (if you have 4-6 people) because of the beauty of the beach, but the price does make it a slight pause.

We really enjoyed the stay at this property, its location is perfect, a few steps from one of the most beautiful beaches in Costa Rica. It has air conditioning+ ceiling fans in the 3 bedrooms, water filter, equipped kitchen, blankets for the beach (in addition to bath towels), hair dryer, iron (which we did not use, but in short they have thought of everything one might need). Parking, grill with implements, hammocks and nice lighting in the external area. And it's pet friendly! :) We would definitely rent again. I did not put the 5 stars in cleaning, because in the garden we find dog droppings, it really is not their fault if other tenants do not pick up what their pets do, but it is advisable to give them a review to the garden (in addition because during our stay some neighboring dogs in the area easily entered below the wardrobe next to the harbor that faces the beach, and it is possible that they are the ones who get dirty

Disfrutamos mucho la estadía en esta propiedad, su ubicación es perfecta, a unos pasos de una de las playas mas bonitas de Costa Rica. Cuenta con aire acondicionado+ventiladores de techo en los 3 dormitorios, filtro de agua, cocina equipada, mantas para la playa (ademas de las toallas de baño), secadora de pelo, plancha (que no usamos, pero en resumen han pensado en todo lo que uno pudiera necesitar). Parqueo, parrilla con implementos, hamacas y bonita iluminación en la zona exterior. Y es pet friendly! :) Definitivamente volveriamos a alquilarlo. No puse las 5 estrellas en limpieza, porque en el jardin encontramos excrementos de perros, realmente no es su culpa si otros inquilinos no recogen lo que hacen sus mascotas, pero es aconsejable que le den una revisada al jardín (además porque durante nuestra estadía algunos perros vecinos de la zona entraban facilmente por debajo de la alambrada al costado del porton que da a la playa, y es posible que sean ellos los que se ensucien

Unbeatable location in the final one of the best beaches in the world, the incredible gardens in its surroundings. 100% recommended, the house has everything you need to spend some fun time with yours. We'll definitely be back :)

Inmejorable ubicaciónen definitiva una de las mejores playas en el mundo, los jardines increíbles en su entorno. Recomendado al 100% la casa cuenta con todo lo que ocupas para pasar un tiempo ameno con los tuyos. En definitivo regresaremos :)

We had a great visit to Punta Uva. The location of the house was great.  It was easy to get to, just a short drive off the main road. It was right on a great beach with shade, for hours of relaxation. On our daily beach walk, we saw a 2 toed sloth in a tree.  There's a long distance of beach to walk, that goes all the way to the reserve. I highly recommend the Caribeans Chocolate farm tour too. We saw lots of sloths, frogs, and toucans, and tasted lots of yummy chocolate. The house had a gorgeous yard and garden and perfect AC in the bedrooms.

Beautiful location! The house was literally steps from the beach. We felt safe and comfortable. Kitchen was small but had everything we needed to prepare small meals and snacks. Great little hike to Cueva Punta Uva- neat hole in the rock carved out by the ocean right around the corner.

Comfortable house on a secluded beach. Would definitely stay there again.

We had a great stay!  It was very peaceful and relaxing.

We really enjoyed our stay, the beach is beautiful and the location was great. Surf lessons and rentals right around the corner, restaurant two doors down, amazing wildlife, beautiful long beach walks, it was amazing! The house is minimally stocked – no games, no beach toys, no beach chairs, so make sure to bring. The house needs some work, Maya and her team helped on some of the issues, usually showing up quickly. The weekends can get very busy, as buses of people show up and overtake the beach, but the rest of the week is awesome. This place is Pura Vida!

This is the second time we have stayed, perfect private beach entrance. Dream stay in a heavenly place. Excellent maintenance of the facilities.

Es la segunda vez que nos hospedamos, perfecta entrada privada a la playa. Estancia de ensueño en un lugar paradisíaco. Mantenimiento excelente de las instalaciones.

Stayed with my family and place was very spacious. Great location right on the beach and communication/check in were fluent. Host was always available for any conocern as well. Planning to stay here next time

Great spot. House is all u need with a 5 second walk to the beach. Punta Uva beach is secluded and quiet. Bar just few steps away for food and drinks. Very happy with this Gem of a find. Pura vida amigos !

Great responsive host, we stayed two weeks and cleaners came twice during that time- great location on the beach, snorkeling at your door step. The Refuge as recommended is the place to eat. We are already booked with Maya for 2023.

Lovely place right by a beautiful beach. Lots of towels and beach blankets and chairs. Great stay!

Lovely villa, perfect location right on an amazing beach. Management company were fab and very responsive

Loved the place and the location. Communication was great and the promptness to solve any issues that came out. The house was well equipped and we felt really safe. We would love to stay there again anytime. Highly recommend this place.

We had a great weekend! The host was quick to communicate from when we booked, to when we checked out. They set up a shuttle for us to/ from SJO airport. They also can help with car rentals. The home is steps away from Punta Una beach. The property is beautifully maintained, with ambient lights and plants. It is also gated. The AC and hot water was nice. Steps from a couple of restaurants and coconut stands. It's quiet at night (we saw a mom and baby sloth coming back from dinner) and we heard monkeys in the morning. It's a 15 minutes drive to Puerto Viejo and a 10 minute drive to Manzanillo. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful place and home. One of my favorite beaches in Costa Rica and to have it right in front of your room is just magical.

*Family of 4 - kids: toddler & elementary age* This house was perfect for what we needed and the access to the beach is amazing! We loved how it was right on the beach so we could easily walk back and forth to the house to grab snacks or let the toddler nap and that we could access the other side of Punta Uva beach by following the road farther past the house. The beach also has great shade provided by the trees all day and there are plastic patio chairs that can be taken down to the beach to sit in, which was so nice. The covered outdoor picnic table area was great for meals rain or shine, or to play games at night and it worked well for us to hang a hammock there to relax close by the house while still enjoying the nature/beach sights & sounds while our toddler napped inside. The yard was also pristine and our kids enjoyed playing there in the early morning before we headed to the beach and at night. The 3 bedrooms were more than enough space for us. There was a safe in one of the bedrooms for anything valuable you may not car to leave out while at the beach or exploring, and the AC units worked really well when we used them for bedtime. We especially loved the huge master bath including outdoor shower. The kitchen is small but we thought it was just the right fit for our uses with basic skillets, pots, pans, blender, toaster, and even a rice cooker and salad spinner which we didn’t need. We primarily made breakfast, smoothies, beach lunches and snacks and did make pasta the first night. Coffee, sugar and filters were provided but if you plan to cook meals, bring the basics such as oil/butter and salt/seasonings. We arrived on a Saturday, which also happened to be New Years Day, and the gravel road leading to the house was packed with parked cars as well as cars trying to get in & out to the beach or the public parking/campground/showers located across the street behind the house. The beach itself was also very crowded with groups that day/night, and some were using the sandy space leading up to the gate entrance to the beach from the house so if you arrive on a crowded weekend day, you may not be able to set up on the beach right in front of the house. It was still crowded, though slightly less, Sunday but because the house is right on the beach we were able to claim our space in front of the house early and by Monday the crowds had cleared and it was so peaceful through the weekdays! All that to say, if you’re coming in on a weekend, just know that it could be slow/difficult to get in and out by car before dark and it may be worth it to go ahead and grab dinner or any groceries or supplies for that night before getting to the house. There is a small soda convenience store right by the turn off to the house and a larger grocery and pharmacy in Playa Chiquita close by, as well as good restaurants nearby. Our favorite was El Refugio Grill for dinner, as well as Selvins and Rio Negro beside the grocer/pharmacy in Playa Chiquita. We would definitely return to “Our Bungalow” especially during the serene weekdays! The location is so ideal for experiencing Punta Uva Arrecife!

Amazing location! On the beach, great outdoor eating area and grassy yard for young kids. Inside is t huge, but all the rooms have AC and the main bedroom/bathroom are nice and modern. Highly, highly recommend this house. Great hun for exploring Caribbean coast or just lounging at stunning beach out your front door.

Best Airbnb in Puerto Viejo!! Sits on the beach.

Definitely the best place for its excellent location just a few meters from the sea of Punta Uva, the spectacular house, a spacious main room with ocean views and spectacular decoration. The ranch is a spectacular place for afternoon siesta in the hammock and at night to share with the family. Going to the bed touched by the sound of the sea is the top point. We felt very safe in the house as it has an alarm and stable wifi for remote work. Every year I go to Limon for my birthday and without hesitation this has been the best accommodation option I had ever experienced. See you at 2022 Our bungalow

Definitivamente el mejor lugar por su excelente ubicación a solo unos metros del mar de Punta Uva, la casa espectacular una amplio cuarto principal con vista al mar y decoración espectacular. El ranchito es un lugar espectacular para la siesta de la tarde en la hamaca y en las noches para compartir con la familia. Irse a la cama arrullado por el sonido del mar es el punto top. Nos sentimos muy seguros en la casa ya que cuenta con alarma y wifi estable para teletrabajar. Todos los años voy a Limón para mi cumpleaños y sin dudarlo esta ha sido la mejor opción de hospedaje que había experimentado. Nos vemos en 2022 Our bungalow.

This is a great house that truly is on the beach in Punta Uva. We enjoyed the large yard and beautiful beach.

Let me save you time, just stay here! You won’t regret it! Beautiful clean place right on the beach! Waking up to the sound of Ocean- priceless!! I’ll be back for sure.

Beautiful location with amazing garden and access to a lovely beach. The restaurant nearby was adorable and delicious. The beds were comfortable and the house was wonderful. The hosts’ communication was top notch. I highly recommend this rental!

Piece of heaven on earth. The location is perfect - just steps away from a stunning sandy beach. The snorkeling is decent in both directions. The beach is amazingly quiet on the weekdays. Saturday was very busy and a little too much for us (think big groups, loud music). The best was early morning walks with just us and the birds. The house had everything we could have needed. Enjoyed the outside shower in the master. Other two bedrooms are decent size. Kitchen has all needed for basic cooking, including a blender for fresh fruit smoothies. We spent each evening playing cards at the outside table which has great lighting. Enjoyed the many options of restaurants. Our favorites - El Refugio Grill, Bamboocha, Koki Beach, Noa Bar Restaurant Beach Club. Also loved the Indigenous & Chocolate Tour. Communication with Maya was great. We did have a towel stolen at the beach in the early morning. Maya replaced the same day. Heed the warnings of not leaving anything unattended. We spoke with others that had things taken when left on the beach while swimming (like cell phones). You will not be disappointed if you stay at this amazing place!

The house is comfortable, clean and beautiful. The beach is perfect. We saw beautiful birds, including a pair of green macaws, and other wildlife. This place is a little piece of heaven.

The house is absolutely perfect, it has a perfect location that is 10 steps from the beach. Bedrooms are comfortable and we had a whatsapp group for communication that made things easier for us. They accept pets which was a major plus for us.

Perfect house and beach spot! 100% recommended :D

Beautiful house and only a few steps to the beach. We found upon arrival that we didn't want to leave the property once there because the location and amenities were perfect! We spent so much time on the beach because it was beautiful and not crowded; there really was no reason to leave! there is a full kitchen and hammocks to rest in. we will definitely be back!

This place cannot be described.  Magnificent location.   If you want a private, out of the way of tourists, on the most remarkable beach location … this is what u want.

Excelente ubicación. Me volvería a hospedar ahí.

This house is amazing! You cannot beat the location with direct beach access to one if the most beautiful beaches! It’s clean and has everything you will need! There is a beach bar a few houses down and a place to rent boogie boards and snorkels. We saw toucans, agouti, and monkeys from the comfort of the yard! I would highly recommend this house!!!!

The place is located steps from the beach, very safe and quiet, it has everything you need to make food, to surprise us it has a water dispenser Crystal of a bidon, the rooms have AC, the decoration, both interior and exterior lighting are great, I would definitely recommend it and I would visit it again. Thank you.

El lugar esta localizado a pasos de la playa, muy seguro y tranquilo, cuenta con todo lo necesario para hacer comida, para sorpresa de nosotros tiene un dispensador de agua Crystal de bidon, las habitaciones cuentan con AC, la decoracion, la iluminacion tanto interior y exterior son geniales, definitivamente la recomendaria y volveria a visitarla. Gracias.

This place is amazing.  It is so close to the beach you feel like you have a private beach to yourself. The house and the grounds are beautifully maintained. I really enjoyed my stay and would love to come back.

Maya is very attentive and was always in touch with us when needed

Maya es muy atenta y estuvo siempre comunicándose con nosotros cuando era necesario

Steps to the beach, great location, clean, comfortable.

A unos pasos de la playa, excelente ubicación, limpia, cómoda.

It's an amazing place! We have been hosted here on many occasions and with the improvements they made to the house, they made it a 🤩 100% recommended paradise, excellent hosts and the location unbeatable ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a gem! It’s a great location right on the beach. Lots of the other houses are across the beach on that street. It’s tastefully decorated and very comfortable and spacious. We loved the outdoor picnic table for meals. Beware of rogue crabs inside the house though!

The location cannot get a lot better than this. Charming house on the most beautiful beach in the area.

What a great place! Can't complain about anything (rather than me hitting the glass entrance door a couple of times). The location is the best, in front of one of the prettiest beaches in the Caribbean cost (Punta Uva Arrecife). All bedrooms are great, but the main bedroom is outstanding. Having the beach in front and falling asleep with the waves is something else. Great communication with the host, always willing to help out. The kitchen was a bit small, but nothing to worry about. If you see this available, book it!

Excellent place! Playa Arrecife is beautiful! The Bungalow is beautiful!

A perfect place, the beach is super close, the place itself is beautiful! Super recommended

Un lugar perfecto, la playa queda súper cerca, el lugar en si es hermoso! Súper recomendado

This house is amazing! Steps to the best part of the beach. We stayed here with our two boys ages 13 and 15 and had a wonderful time. The house is nice/modern/clean. The truly spectacular part is the proximity to a beautiful beach. The beach is amazingly quiet Monday to Friday, and is moderately busy on weekends (so plan accordingly—some may prefer the action/people watching of the weekend). The master bedroom is large with a large adjoining bathroom. The other two bedrooms are adequate. Our boys did wake up early (with the sun) but that is typical in Costa Rica. The kitchen is also adequate (we made eggs/pancakes every AM) but if you want a “chef’s kitchen” this isn’t that. Overall a very nice house in a perfect location. We would love to return.

Fantastic. Magic spot. Directly beschfront 2 the best beach around. The spot is better located 2 the beach than it looks on the photos.

The house is literally on the beach.  If you like waves, then this is the place to be.  Was pretty busy when we were there, but overall good place to come and just chill.  Pura Vida!

Great location right on the beach. Walking out onto one of the most beautiful beaches in the word with coffee in hand was our morning ritual. The house is clean and comfortable with nice open spaces. If you plan on getting work done though the internet is really slow. The kitchen is small and basic but we mostly ate at the many restaurants along the road. It does get a little crowded on the weekends but no issues. We had an amazing time here.

Great to go with the family, the location is perfect.

Excelente para ir con la familia, la ubicación es perfecta.

You can look at any other place in the region and you will never beat this location. The house is beautiful and the beach at Punta Uva is amazing ! Check in was simple and everything went as expected. Highly recommend!!

Beautiful property, steps from the sea... special details and a beautiful atmosphere.

Hermosa propiedad, a pasos Del Mar... detalles especiales y una atmósfera hermosa.

Excellent location,  beachfront. The place is very comfortable, we had a great time!

Excelente ubicacion,  frente a la playa. El lugar muy comodo, lo pasamos genial!

Maya was super easy to communicate with and was very flexible as my travel dates had to change due to COVID flight cancelations. I highly suggest staying at Maya's place. It's also RIGHT on the beach! Nothing better than waking up, walking right out to the beach and going for a dip!

This house location is OUTSTANDING. Literally your backyard is one of the most beautiful beaches in limón. Communication with Maya is easy and they prepare everything for you to have a great time. House has everything you need. Master bedroom is awesome and huge. Kitchen is fine to cook and it includes all appliances but microwave in case you need it. You can have a BBQ at the property which is great. I can't wait to come back to this house!

The location can't be beat.  You can see and hear the ocean from the back door.  And of course, Punta Uva is just a fantastic beach.  My favorite of all the beaches in Costa Rica.  Maya is quick to respond to any problems you might have.  The house has a nice back yard with a picnic table under a thatched roof with two hammocks.  Very peaceful place to relax if you want to be out of the sun.  Nice parking area as well. The house comes with a 5 gallon bottled water dispenser.   This was our second time and we hope to be back soon.

100% comfort, 100% nature, incredible beach, beautiful views, sunrise and sunset in one place, tranquility, security, excellent option.

100% comodidad, 100% naturaleza, playa increible, vistas preciosas, amanecer y atardecer en un mismo lugar, tranquildad, seguridad, excelente opción.

During the Covid 19 Pandemic a place like Our Bungalow at Punta Uva helps you keep your mind off all the problems in the world. It is a great place in front of the beach where my small children and I spend most of our time. Also it is great to spend some quality time with your spouse with your feet in the sand and all that you need just steps away in the house. We had a great time. A vacation greatly needed!

Our stay Our Bungalow was more than what we expected! Beautiful Home, yard, ranch with hamacs to listen to the nature and waves. Punta Uva Beach isn beautiful, but strong waves during our stay so we were not able to go into the ocean. Would love to go back to this place! Wonderful and perfect to disconnect from city live and Covid-19. Thank you Maya!

Beautiful place right on the beach! The local town had plenty of options for eating, shopping, and groceries.

A nice house  with an unbeatable oceanfront location!

Una linda casa  con una ubicación inmejorable frente al mar!

WOW! Paradise! The bungalow is RIGHT. ON. THE. MOST. BEAUTIFUL. BEACH. I. HAVE. EVER. SEEN. IN. MY. LIFE.  Punta Uva really is a paradise.  Great Restaurant just a few steps away. Kayak rentals just a few steps away. Market just a short 1 min drive away. Secluded beach just a few steps away. The last day there I literally spent the entire day sunrise to sunset on the beach reading/ swimming/ napping/ drinking /meditating.  Perfect beach for laying in the sun or sitting in the total shade plentiful trees with constant cool breeze blowing across your body.  This place is just perfect. House is super comfortable and has everything you need for a tropical beach getaway.  We found ourselves inconvenienced by the Coronavirus craziness and border closings and flight cancellations etc, and Maya was extremely helpful when we wanted to make changes.  I could not recommend any higher!

The house is right on a beach. It is quiet and the surroundings are very well maintained. The accommodation is accordingly clean, but also has small age-related wear and tear.

Das Haus liegt direkt an einem Strand. Es ist ruhig und die Umgebung ist sehr gepflegt. Die Unterkunft ist dementsprechend sauber, hat aber auch schon kleine altersbedingte Abnützungserscheinung.

Great location,very clean, highly recommend.

Excelente ubicación,muy limpio,lo recomiendo plenamente.

Lovely, very private home steps from the beach. If the surf is rough in front of the house, simply walk around the road less than 5 minutes to the more protected Punta UVA bay- beautiful!

This place is way better than the pictures!
