Great location, beautiful home and lovely hosts. There were some issues with the mini splits and they tried to remedy (Costa Rica isn’t always perfect so please know that and be patient). My only real suggestion is to get a more comfortable and larger couch and TV in the living room. The charcuterie platter and breakfasts she made were out of this world! The massages were awesome too! Thank you guys for hosting us and making our time memorable and special.

Perched above the ocean, this Airbnb felt like something out of a dream. From the moment we arrived, the views completely stole the show—endless blue water, lush jungle, and the kind of sunsets that don’t even look real. The space itself was just as impressive. Thoughtfully designed, open and airy, it perfectly blended indoor and outdoor living. Waking up to the sound of waves and enjoying coffee while watching the ocean each morning quickly became my favorite routine. Every detail felt intentional, from the comfortable furnishings to the seamless connection with nature all around. The breakfast each morning was incredible—fresh, delicious, and something we genuinely looked forward to. We were also traveling with our 20-month-old, and the hosts went above and beyond to make it an amazing experience for her. They provided toys and everything she could possibly need, which made traveling so much easier for us. She absolutely loved exploring the space and the surroundings.

Beautiful villa, upscale amenities, a breathtaking view, wonderful homemade breakfast, Virginie and Pascal's recommendations are excellent.

splendide villa, prestations haut de gamme, une vue a couper le souffle, un petit dejeuner merveilleux fait maison, les recommandations de Virginie et Pascal sont excellentes.

Such a beautiful place with the best view! We loved our stay!

We had a wonderful stay at Shelter from the Storm Villas and truly didn’t want to leave. The villa itself was absolutely beautiful — spotless, thoughtfully designed, and even more spacious than it appears in the photos. There was plenty of room to relax and spread out, and everything felt both luxurious and comfortable at the same time.

The breakfasts each morning were such a highlight — fresh, delicious, and clearly prepared with care. We really appreciated all the thoughtful touches throughout our stay, from the small details in the room to the overall warmth and hospitality. It’s clear a lot of love goes into the guest experience here.

We would absolutely stay again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, special getaway.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay with Pascal and Virginie — they were incredible hosts. The property is stunning with amazing attention to detail and style. It was like a tiny private resort. The shared pool and bar area are gorgeous, and the personal infinity pool was a huge highlight for our kids. The daily cleaner who refreshed towels and made beds kept the stay feeling easy. We also really appreciated the thoughtful local recommendations, which helped us explore in a way we never would’ve managed on our own. In addition we had multiple sloth and toucan sightings on the property ! We were lucky enough to celebrate Thanksgiving there with a local chef and a few other families, and it turned out to be an unforgettable evening. Everything about our stay felt warm, relaxed, and memorable. We’d love to return.

Absolutely exquisite couple amazing place state of a lifetime. Do not look any further.

Our stay was amazing! Pascal and Virginie are so sweet, kind, and caring. Where do I even start! The drive to the Airbnb from San Jose is about 4 hours long and once you get to the road that leads to the Airbnb make sure you have a 4x4 vehicle or you are NOT making it as the roads are very steep, muddy, and rocky but of course the hosts let you know of this in advance. Once you arrive you will be greeted by the most adorable and friendly doggies (about 7 haha), one cat, and they even have a neighborhood sloth that hangs out in the tree next to their house that they will show you. The place looks EXACTLY like it does in the photos and the view is absolutely breathtaking! There is a private water fall with about 300 steps to get there (I’m not kidding haha) but once you get there it is amazing and so worth it although you won’t think so on the way back up. The ONLY con is the water pressure is absolutely horrible and trying to get the sand off was impossible. But we will be back! 😁

This tropical bohemian-modern home in Dominicalito was pure magic. The ocean view from the terrace is absolutely stunning — the perfect place to unwind and watch the waves roll in. The home itself is beautifully designed, with a relaxed, artistic vibe and all the modern comforts you could ask for. One of our favorite parts of the trip was the nearby waterfall hike — adventurous, refreshing, and surrounded by lush jungle. The koi ponds and gardens on the property are truly unique and so peaceful to walk through — it felt like a hidden sanctuary. The hosts were wonderful — thoughtful, responsive, and made everything easy. If you're looking for a stylish, nature-filled getaway with incredible views and a touch of adventure, this is the place. We can't wait to come back!

Exceptional! A splendid villa and environment, facing the ocean. Upscale amenities, harmonious design decor and a very pleasant pool/kitchen-terrace common area. Thank you to Pascal and Virginie for their very friendly welcome, the private tour of their property and access to their entire estate, including the watchtower and the superb private waterfall. Everyone enjoyed this enchanted break. 🤩

Exceptionnel! Une villa et un environnement splendides, en face de l’océan. Des prestations haut de gamme, une décoration design harmonieuse et un espace commun piscine /cuisine-terrasse très agréables. Merci à Pascal et Virginie pour leur très sympathique accueil, la visite privée de leur propriété  et l’accès à tout leur domaine, y compris le mirador et la superbe cascade privée. Tout le monde a bien profité de cette parenthèse enchantée 🤩

Beautiful place with absolutely stunning view.  Wildlife galore.  Saw white face monkeys, 3 toed sloth, toucans and other tropical birds.  Fed bananas to the monkeys.  Great hosts.  They let us know when the monkeys came to their trees and showed us the sloth when we arrived.  This house gave us a true Costa Rican rainforest experience!  Hosts were very responsive and gave us suggestions of activities in the area.  We had 3 kids ranging from 12 to 2!  Since we did have kids I think it is important to know that the staircase is open on one side.  It is beautiful but we had to watch our 2 year old.  Also, our older kids were so excited about the zipline but it didn’t work very well.  They stopped about halfway down the line and had to be pulled back.  It was too much work to be fun.  The “playground” consisted of a small trampoline, a nice enclosed slide and a fisher price plastic slide.  We would definitely recommend this house and thank our hosts for such an amazing experience!

This place was absolutely spectacular! The views are incredible and the pool is refreshing! The outdoor showers are insane. Probably the best shower experience of my life. Having my doggies tag along too was a highlight. From the Japanese Garden with koi to the fresh breakfast prepared by our most gracious hosts, I can’t say enough. A first class experience. And the waterfall on property!! It doesn’t get any better. I did not have a 4x4 and made it up just fine. You can also get good delivered with Rapido!! Awesome experience! Will be back

We were overly pleased with this space! It was more than we could have hoped for. Pascal & Virginie were so friendly and accommodating. Download the Waze app to use as it was the only thing that was clear on directions. Our taxis got lost and you must have a 4x4 car to get to this location! So very pleased! Will be back!

I have stayed in dozens of Airbnbs around the world and this one was absolutely immaculate and quite possibly my favorite. The property itself has been curated with deep intention and an artistic eye. It was the first time I have ever stayed in an Airbnb that truly exceeded the expectations portrayed in the already beautiful photos. The views are some of the best I’ve ever seen, the house is stunning and impressive and brought together with a truly designer flair to it. Every detail was thoughtful and of quality. Pascal and Virginie were wonderful hosts and the home cooked breakfast they offer is phenomenal and as gorgeously prepared with the same attention to detail that the property boasts. I will be retuning and recommending this property to friends as family as well!

Pascal & Virginie’s home was simply amazing and they are phenomenal host. The house and location are better then the pictures which is almost hard to believe. The property is extremely private and had a magical sense to it. You can come here and never leave its that amazing. The amenities are plentiful with a community pool/common area, kids zip line/tree house/play area, and private hiking trail that leads to a beautiful waterfall. This property is perfect for romantic getaways and family gatherings. Pascal & Virginie are amazing host and make you feel welcomed from the moment you arrive. They have a lot of local knowledge and are easily available if needed. If available have them make you breakfast…. An incredible experience. The road to the property is a well maintained uphill dirt road. Signage and directions are very clear but 4x4 is definitely required. Dont let this dissuade you from the property. The magic of this property starts at the “Jurasic Park” like front gate.

The stay was a total success, the house is super cute, even better than in the photos, very neat, spacious spaces, the ideal pool, Virginie and Pascal super attentive! I recommend the place 👌🏼👌🏼

La estadía fue un éxito total, la casa es súper linda, aún mejor que en las fotos, muy aseada, amplios espacios, la piscina ideal, Virginie y Pascal súper atentos! Les recomiendo el lugar 👌🏼👌🏼

We loved our stay here and will definitely return. We live about two hours away and chose this place to meet up with some friends visiting from out of the country and they were so impressed. The pool, the swings, the starry effect above the pool, and of course the amazing views were so enjoyed. The beds and bedding were very comfy, and in general, being someone who lives here and understands how challenging it is to acquire quality items here, it was clear that a lot of time and energy had been put into outfitting the place with love and an eye for detail. This was everything I always hope an AirBNB experience can be.

This house was a masterpiece to say the least! When people think of a dream vacation house this is exactly what comes to mind. Every single area of the house was decorated and constructed to perfection! My favorite area was the large kitchen where I could spread out and cook with the most pristine view there is here in Uvita. Mornings here were so quiet and peaceful and the sunset was to die for! My husband and I couldn’t ask for a more memorable house to spend our honeymoon in. Our last morning we even indulged in Virginie’s exquisite breakfast which blew us away and made this the one of the best trips of our lives!

Virginie and Pascal’s property is absolutely breathtaking. We had an amazing time, enjoying the stunning views, the beautiful house, the swimming pools, and the private waterfall. They’ve clearly put a lot of care and attention to detail into creating such a wonderful space. Anyone who stays here will not regret it, and we can’t wait to return with more family and friends. Virginie and Pascal are also incredibly friendly and kind, and it was a pleasure to tour the land with Pascal and meet Virginie. Thank you both so much for hosting us, and we hope to see you again soon!

We had an amazing stay here - 10/10 - the house, interior, views and surroundings are even more stunning than in the pictures. The villa is beautifully designed with a lot of love for detail. The breakfast is outstanding. Virginie and Pascal were both very helpful at all times and gave us great recommendations for things to do in the area.

This stay was an absolute delight! The decor is timeless and beautifully curated, making the space feel both elegant and cozy. Every detail was thoughtfully designed, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The view is the highlight of but everything is such a treat. The breakfast was fresh, delicious, and made with care. It was the perfect way to start the day and added to the overall wonderful experience. If you’re looking for a stay that’s stylish, comfortable, and welcoming, this is it. I would absolutely come back and we will make sure to bring more people too! Pascal and Virginie are a delight! So grateful for their hospitality!

When I entered the villa it immediately reminded me of South France with the materials, scents and decorations they used. The combination of two of my favourite holiday destinations was incredible. The beds are extremely comfortable with high-quality linen, and when you open the remote-controlled curtains you enjoy an incredible view over the coast which makes you want to stay in bed forever. The kitchen is very spacious and modern, and the owners even lent me some bowls from their own kitchen as I had prepared a lot of food. They live on the large property as well and are super responsive, but at the same time they let you enjoy your complete privacy and I never saw or heard them unless I reached out. Even if you don‘t use all bedrooms I still recommend this villa, especially if you are planning a romantic getaway, the pool with its starlight ceiling is amazing. Thank you again Virginie & Pascal for everything, I really enjoyed my stay!

Our stay at Shelter from the Storm villas was unplanned.  We had a bad experience at another Airbnb and to save our romantic getaway to Costa Rica we checked out of it and booked with Virginie and Pascal instead.  I can’t begin to describe how great of a decision that was. Everything about this place is magical. No details were spared to provide a luxurious and peaceful retreat. The entire home is spotless and smells amazing. The views are enchanted. Highly recommend a stay here!

beautiful property and the hosts are incredible. if you stay here, get the breakfast. it is magic.

Pascal and Virginia are excellent hosts. We would have extended fed our stay longer but alas they had other reservations. Great place to kick back and relax.

Amazing, spectacular place. Very private and welcoming, with beautiful finishes. And from the owners, great hospitality. We wish to visit this magnificent place again.

Un lugar espectacular e increíble. Muy privado y acogedor, de acabados hermosos. Y de parte de los propietarios una hospitalidad genial. Deseamos volver a visitar este magnífico lugar.

Muchas gracias a ustedes.  Fue un placer de recibir ustedes y nosotros seríamos muy felices de compartir un otro momento con ustedes y los niños.  Hasta pronto 😉
