Tropical Environment
Costa Rica’s tropical climate supports a wide variety of insects, lizards, rodents, and reptiles. Although we maintain a strict pest-control plan to help keep these visitors outside the home, occasional encounters with local wildlife are a natural part of the experience and do not constitute a breach of the rental policy.
We appreciate your understanding as you enjoy the beauty of this vibrant ecosystem.

Rural Considerations
Because the property is located in the jungle, power outages may occasionally occur due to falling branches or other weather-related issues.
The local water supply comes from nearby springs and may also experience occasional interruptions. We kindly ask guests to keep these possibilities in mind as part of the rural, natural experience of staying in this beautiful area.

Beautiful property and efficient hosts! The home is better than the photos and 4x4 SUV is necessary.

Roberto and team were great. We had excellent communication before and during our trip. The views were amazing. The road up isn’t bad but you should definitely have a 4x4. The house could use some tlc but the views made up for it.

This place was absolutely stunning! The pictures don’t do it justice. The view was amazing and we saw so much wildlife while just sitting outside. The pool was great to have after a day out as well! Could have honestly just stayed there the whole time! You definitely need a 4x4 vehicle, and although it was a bit of a longer drive on some rough roads to get there, it was MORE than worth it! The team was also very responsive and would reach out to check in on us and did a wonderful job providing instructions to get there. We would stay there again anytime!

We had such a great stay here at Roberto’s place. The pictures don’t even do it justice, it was truly breathtaking. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Osa I would definitely check this one out. Roberto and his team were also wonderful with communication, if we ever had any questions they were quick to chat us with information and recommendations. Before we even arrived we had a detailed layout of how to get to the property and it made the check in process that much easier. We can’t thank them enough and we had such a wonderful time!

I’ve stayed in a lot of Airbnbs over the past 10 years and this one is my favorite! The house was spotless and had the most amazing view! The photos don’t do this home justice. We didn’t want to leave. The pool area was so relaxing. Thank you Roberto and team for making this stay so special!

We had a wonderful week a villa oro verde! It is truly a jungle paradise. The home is beautiful and location is amazing. We saw wildlife everyday including toucans, monkeys, and even a sloth crossing the road! The pool was a perfect place to relax after a fun day of exploring the uvita area. Roberto and his team were always responsive and helped us with anything we needed. We would be happy to stay here again when in Costa Rica!
