Die Unterkunft war ein Traum! Wir konnten uns an dem wunderschönen Blick gar nicht satt sehen. Olga hat uns obendrein mit super Tipps zu tollen Unternehmungen und Restaurantbesuchen versorgt. Wir hoffen, eines Tages wieder kommen zu können.

I have stayed in Airbnb‘s all around the world. I must tell you – Olga‘s home was the best I’ve ever stayed in. First, Olga is an amazing host. All of her recommendations were spot on. Her directions to the home were very detailed, and we didn’t have any trouble finding the place at all. The home is simply incredible. The views, the sounds, the design. It was truly a perfect stay. Don’t underestimate the benefit of no checkout instructions. We felt cared for in every way. It was difficult to leave such a beautiful place. Thank you, Olga!

We absolutely loved our stay at Olga’s place! The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed. It also has the best view. Our 2 kids had a lot of fun in the pool in between our outings. We also enjoyed relaxing on the terrace and listening to the morning sounds coming from the rainforest. As others mentioned, the drive up to the house, especially the first time around, is an adventure in itself but it only added to the fun. We very much enjoyed driving up and down the steep hills of Uvita. The house is close to several great restaurants, waterfalls, beaches, and you can even sign up for a chocolate tour minutes away from the house which we highly recommend. Olga was a fantastic host and we couldn’t recommend her Airbnb enough. It was an amazing vacation!

The most beautiful home I have ever stayed in! If it’s available, it’s 100% worth the stay. The drive to it is very steep. You definitely need a 4x4. Olga gave very clear instructions on how to get there. We did not lack for anything the whole time there. She even left us coconuts. Amazing, peaceful stay.

We stayed here for a week, and it was paradise! The photos don't do it justice: the ocean views are absolutely unreal, especially from the infinity pool and the living space and rooms. We'd wake up, make coffee in the fully stocked kitchen, and just sit on the deck watching the ocean through the trees. The whole place has this incredible energy: the Balinese art, the antique Indian furniture, the high wooden ceilings. It doesn't feel like a rental, it feels like someone's lovingly built dream home that you get to borrow for a few days. Olga is a fantastic host: communicative, warm, and clearly knows the area deeply. She was super accommodating and proactive, and all in all highly recommend this beautiful home in paradise.

Olga was very quick to respond to any questions we had. Her restaurant recommendations were amazing. The house, pool and views are spectacular, better than the pictures. We will come back for sure.

Absolutely stunning place! Incredible views, impeccably decorated, and well stocked with everything you could possibly want for making great meals and drinks. I booked Olga's place for my 40th birthday, and it was beyond perfect. Even better than the pictures depicted. Olga's advice about getting an AWD/4x4 vehicle is an absolute necessity. Getting up and down is an adventure in and of itself, but thoroughly worth the reward.

We had such an amazing stay! The location is perfect, close to restaurants and amenities, yet tucked away enough to feel completely private and surrounded by nature. It truly feels like a peaceful jungle oasis. The ocean and jungle views are absolutely gorgeous, and the quiet, serene atmosphere made it easy to fully relax. The home was spotless, beautifully maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Our host was incredibly kind, responsive, and supportive, and she shared wonderful local recommendations that made our trip even better. We can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!
