Whit's home was stunning and such a joy to stay in. Definitely the most beautiful pool we've ever been in! Air conditioning in every room and easy to cool off in the pool. Whit meets you at the bottom of the hill leading up to the house to make sure you find it and then gives you a tour of the house. The tour was a nice touch, although perhaps a bit long for the younger kids in our group. 😂 The place is a short drive to the beaches and cute little restaurants in Uvita. We loved the house and Uvita and would love to come back!

Whit’s villa is spectacular! It is extremely clean, has every amenity you can dream of and is a great space for large families and friends to gather and make memories. The beds are super comfortable, each bedroom has an en-suite and half baths are available on each level. The game room is a huge bonus and a great space for kids and adults. The pool, BBQ area and sunken lounge were such special and unique places to spend time together. We were able to see toucans, scarlet macaws and hear the beautiful sounds of nature. The kitchen is commercial grade. Every tool you can imagine is provided and is top of the line. Whit provides detailed information about the villa and the local communities that were extremely helpful and added a lot of value. One of our faves was his dining guide with detailed info and helpful tips. It really made our dining experiences more wonderful! Our concierge, Simone, was the BEST! She’s passionate about making your time soexial experiences

Whit’s Villa was absolutely incredible! The villa is immaculate, and Whit has thought of every possible detail to make your stay unforgettable. He personally welcomed us, showed us the way to the villa, and gave us a tour. His extensive binders filled with top recommendations around Uvita are a treasure, definitely use them! They won’t let you down. The view is breathtaking, creating the perfect backdrop to watch the sunset. Whit connected us with his amazing concierge, Simone, who went above and beyond to make our trip truly memorable. She arranged thrilling adventures for our family, from zip-lining to ATV rides. Both Whit and Simone are super responsive, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free.
