We had a great trip and loved the area! Our stay at Casa Ballena was what made our trip amazing. The view is stunning and the house has everything we needed.

An excellent place, unrivaled views! Access is by 4x4, but for me, that’s part of the experience!! I liked it and recommend it.

Un lugar excelente, una vista inigualable! El acceso es en 4x4 pero para mí es parte de la experiencia!! Me gustó y lo recomiendo.

Fernando, thank you so much for your wonderful review!   It was a pleasure hosting you, and we truly appreciate your recommendation. We’d love to welcome you back anytime. Pura vida!

Couldn’t ask for more. The hosts, the house, the pool; all details covered. Very comfortable, immaculate in a beautiful setting.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review Andy! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the home, the pool, and the beautiful setting. It means a lot to us that you noticed the care we put into making sure everything is comfortable, clean, and well prepared for our guests. It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we really appreciate your kind words about our communication and attention to detail. We would be delighted to welcome you back anytime! 😊

This property was incredible. The views are to die for, I could spend all day in that pool! Christine and Tom from jaguar management were top notch. We felt very safe here and well taken care of, they have thought of everything! Driveway requires a 4x4 but the views are well worth it. Any issues or concerns we had were immediately addressed with kindness and they even accommodated a very unexpected late check in for us. Definitely hope to visit again in the future!

Hi Chelsea, Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed the property — those views really are something special, and we love that you were able to soak it all in from the pool! It means a lot to hear that you felt safe, well cared for, and fully accommodated during your stay. Providing a seamless and comfortable experience is always our goal. We are so happy to know our efforts made such a positive impression — especially being able to assist with your check-in. We would absolutely love to welcome you back anytime. Until then, we’ll be here keeping that pool view ready for you! Christine and Tom Jaguar Property Management

Our family of eleven; 9 adults, 2 teenagers and 2 children had a wonderful 8 night stay at Casa Ballena Pacifica. The house was perfect for everyone - from the amazing Infiniti pool and patio area; the large well equipped kitchen; the bedrooms, each with their own ensuite, it was perfect! The online description and pictures are very accurate. We celebrated two birthdays during our stay and on those nights we hired Chef Wilberth to come in and cook for us. What a treat! We all thoroughly enjoyed being catered to. Highly recommend! We also used the tour company Pacific Expeditions that was recommended by Christine & Tom to co-ordinate 4 excursions which worked out very well. PE was very easy to work with and prompt in replying to any questions or concerns. We did the OSA Canopy Tour, Mangrove Tour, Snorkelling to Cano Island and the Night Tour. All were excellent. I highly recommend this accommodation and compliment Christine & Tom on this beautiful property.

Thank you Randy!  So glad you enjoyed your stay.

Took a little bit to get to location from San Jose, but once there it was perfect.  View out back is priceless and home was more than enough space for us.  House is close to lots of activities and the beaches and abundant amount of restaurants.  Plenty of wildlife to see in backyard too.

Thank you Tim, happy guests, happy life!!  Hurry  back to our corner of paradise.

Everything is very nice. Good location. Very friendly

Todo muy bien lindo. Bien ubicado. Muy amables

The view from this property is beautiful. The infinity pool and dinner with Chef Kevin were highlights—he created a delicious all‑vegetarian meal for us—and Christine was very helpful in arranging a suitable car rental. However, there were a few issues. One day, the water stopped completely, and all eight of us were unable to use the bathroom, shower, or wash our hands from 8 am - 4 pm. The hosts couldn’t give an estimate for when it would return. They kindly offered access to another property later in the afternoon, but the water had already come back, so it didn’t help much. We also had a safety concern when a glass shower door suddenly shattered while being closed, causing multiple small cuts and a very stressful moment. Someone was sent to clean up, but it made us feel that some furnishings might be worn or due for inspection. The coffee table also felt fragile, and the bed even cracked once when I sat down.

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re very glad to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful views, the infinity pool, your dinner with Chef Kevin, and the assistance you received from Christine. We truly appreciate those kind words. We’re also very sorry for the issues you experienced during your stay. The unexpected water outage was due to a community water supply disruption outside of our control, and we understand how inconvenient and uncomfortable it was for your group. We did our best to provide alternatives as soon as we had the option. Regarding the shower door, we are extremely relieved no one was seriously injured. Tempered glass failures are rare, but we take any safety concern very seriously. After your stay, we immediately inspected all similar fixtures, replaced the affected door, and scheduled an additional preventive check of furnishings. Your feedback helps us improve, and we genuinely appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention,

We had a great stay at Christine’s place. We appreciated the in person check-in with Tom. Both he and Christine were very friendly, helpful and responsive. It was a fun adventure!

Thank  you Michelle, always glad to be of service!

Great communication, directions. Beautiful spot for a family gathering. The pool and long dining table was perfect.

Dear Judy, thank you so much for your wonderful review.  We always strive to make communication as smooth as possible for a stress free vacation, so it's great to hear you felt well taken care of.   It makes us so happy to you enjoyed the outdoor space and pool.  Hope to host you again on your next trip!

Casa Ballena was a wonderful and peaceful place to stay at. Views and surroundings are breathtaking, very private and yet close by a local supermarket, few restaurants and the nearby towns. The house was very comfortable, beautiful and well equipped. Tom and Christine were great at providing many options for activities, concierge and services provided at the property. Unfortunately, the internet connection in the whole neighborhood was broken so we had a really hard time with connection. Nonetheless Christine did a great job providing us with updates and at the end provided a swift refund for the issue. I would say if you need to work/ stay online during the stay - invest in data package or some type of portable WiFi. The property was a perfect place to have a relaxing family and friends time and a perfect hub to return after a day full of adventures. Can’t recommend it enough!

Dear Kamila, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay in our corner of paradise. Yes, we had an unfortunate and unusual wind storm the afternoon of your arrival and the fiber optic line was damaged by a fallen tree branch. Normally the signal is very good and we have also upgraded to 50Mbps. We are so sorry this happened during your stay and hope you return soon and stay longer!

Christine & Tom were very accommodating! They were very responsive and recommended incredible experiences with such kind people! The house itself was beautiful and I would love to come back!

We felt very comfortable in the house. The house and views are just beautiful. We would book the house again. Christine & Tom are super great hosts, thank you very much.

Wir fühlten uns sehr wohl im Haus. Das Haus und die Aussicht sind einfach wunderschön. Wir würden das Haus wieder buchen. Christine & Tom sind super tolle Gastgeber, herzlichen Dank.

We all loved this place. It was beautiful and well stocked. The four lovely bedrooms all have patio doors to the outdoor area/pool and were comfortable and welcoming.  The kitchen and outdoor cooking and eating area are great.  The access was easy with our 4WD vehicle and the road was well maintained. It felt very secure with an electronic access gate. The location is stellar looking out to the ocean. We had macaws and frigate birds and heard the howler monkeys. The concierge service was fabulous.  They helped us find a chef for a private dinner on the patio (Chef Wilburth who was awesome!) as well as a great car rental arrangement and excursion reservations.  I have been to Costa Rica several times and this was the best AirB and B and services yet. Uvita is a wonderful place to visit and this location is a fabulous place to stay.

Glad you enjoyed your stay with us, happy guests, happy life!

I feel Christine and Thomas were amazing to communicate with and very accommodating.

Thank you Danette, so glad you enjoyed your stay.  Hope to see you soon!

The villa is amazing in the nature with the wildlife. It's perfect for 4 couples of friends or families. The exterior area is the best and the view is fantastic. You can find everything to cook ans there's also games, beach chairs, etc. Christine and Tom are quickly responsive and so kind. Thanks a lot!

Thank you Karine!  Our little corner of paradise is amazing, so glad you all enjoyed yourselves :-)

Beautiful place high a top a hill with great view of jungle and ocean.  Thoroughly enjoyed the house and pool.  Plenty of room for large family with many bedrooms and lofts in some of the rooms.  Very friendly hosts.

This house was outstanding, peaceful and remote.  Beautifully designed inside and out.  Well stocked kitchen and everything impeccably clean and in working order. Christine and Tom were responsive and friendly.   Super helpful and recommended a great service for arranging our excursions. Christine even intervened when the car rental place gave a car we did not reserve.  READ ALL EMAILS she sends.  An AWD vehicle probably will not make it up the driveway.  We were finally given a true 4x4 the next morning thanks to Christine.  We used Chef Chino a couple nights which was so nice to not cook after long days exploring.  Highly recommend this home.

Spectacular, beautiful and modern house with a breathtaking view. Super well-arranged Gardens and the very well-equipped house, with everything. Very good appliances. Location is a little outside the center of Uvita, but it is (VERY) worth the trip. Tom and Christine were always very helpful and made us very comfortable if we needed anything. We also suggested the best restaurants and beaches. We were very happy in your house! Thank You Regards of Portugal

Casa espetacular, bonita e moderna, com uma vista arrebatadora. Jardins super bem arranjados e a casa muito bem equipada, com tudo. Eletrodomésticos muito bons. A localização é um pouco fora do centro de Uvita, mas vale (MUITO) a pena o trajeto. O Tom e a Christine foram sempre muito prestáveis e deixaram-nos muito à vontade caso precisassemos de alguma coisa. Também nos sugeriram os melhores restaurantes e praias. Fomos muito felizes na vossa casa! Obrigada Cumprimentos de Portugal

Awesome house. Very comfortable and luxurious. Fantastic ocean view. I would stay there again. You definitely need a four-wheel-drive vehicle to get up the hill.

My group and I had such an excellent stay at Casa Ballena Pacifica. With its breathtaking views and ultra-comfortable accommodations we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Tom and Christine provided lots of material ahead of time for us to know exactly how to meet them and prepare ourselves for our stay. Every room has excellent views and layouts so everyone is happy. The kitchen is perfectly stocked. We enjoyed cooking several meals there with products from the local markets. It’s in a quiet area without noise or traffic, and you can hear the ocean in the distance at night under the constellations. Definitely you’ll want a 4x4, or at least a light load in a less-equipped car. Thank you, Tom and Christine!

Thank you Jennifer, hurry back and stay longer :-)

This was a great home to spend a couple weeks in with family. The bedrooms a setup perfectly for comfort with en-suite bathrooms and some with lofts for additional sleeping space. The pool was excellent and a welcome relief from the intense heat during our trip. We loved birding from the back and front yards every early morning and late afternoon- there is a lot to see! The kitchen and grill made cooking easy and the grocery store is about 10 minutes away. The concierge was very helpful with arranging some transportation, as well as excursions and all the guides we had were great.  Finally , Tom and Christine were super organized and helpful. They waited as we got groceries on our arrival and helped us build confidence driving up the steep rode the first time around. In addition they quickly responded and helped resolve any issues in the house. We hope to stay again sometime. Thanks for a great trip!

Thank you Apryl, hurry back and stay longer next time!

The house, pool and location are stunning. As others have noted, the drive takes some getting used to but is 100% worth it. We highly recommend private chef JuanPablo. The experience and value exceeded expectations. Christine and Tom could not be more attentive hosts. We highly recommend booking this property. Thank you!

Beautiful house with an amazing view. Everything about this house was perfect for us. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and planned days to stay at the house just relax in the pool. PERFECT!!

Thank you Kelly, so happy you had a great vacation!  Hurry back :-)

Hill house with nice ocean view, surrounded by nature. Very well equipped kitchen. Nice pool. Nice finishes.

Casa en colina con linda vista al mar, rodeada de naturaleza. Cocina muy bien equipada. Piscina agradable. Buenos acabados.

We stay 7 nights at this beautiful house. The view from each room is incredible. Comfortable and spacious house. The only thing we could change is to have a heated pool. It was chilly on cloudy days. Besides that, I would recommend to stay in this house.

The place was amazing. Christine made our experience. her responsiveness to any of our needs was incredible. She was also incredibly generous with her time and resources. The view, rooms, and everything else was just as pictured. Actually WAY bigger than how it seems in the photos. The kitchen had everything our private chef needed to feed my retreat group for the week. Even beautiful serving platters. I would definitely stay here again! And i will for my next retreat :) things to know before booking: the wifi is very likely to stop responding multiple times a day, but it is very easy to just unplug and reset. the lofts are significantly warmer than the rest of the bedroom (that’s inevitable as heat rises but just a forewarning), and nothing is walkable so rent a car!

Dear Lea, thank you for being our guests!  Glad you had a great time, nothing makes us happier than folks who enjoyed their stay with us.  Hope to see you soon!

This place is absolutely gorgeous inside and out. It’s like something out of a magazine.  When you walk through the the front door you’re looking through the retractable wall out to the infinity pool on a mountain side overlooking the ocean, breathtaking! The house is large, very clean and modern. Christine and Tom are so helpful and very responsive.  I highly recommend booking this place and We will absolutely book this place again.

Dear Matt, what wonderful guests you are!  So happy you had a great time.  Paradise misses you!

This is an amazing house, perched high above the Pacific with endless views to the southwest. The pool is perfect and a welcome relief on toasty days. The house was immaculate and had every convenience including 2 clothes washers. The kitchen was well-equipped. Our chef for 3 dinners (the first dinner was so good, we kept him busy for 2 more) was super-friendly and the food delicious. The drive to the Whale's Tail (national park + beach) was easy and, once there, we were greeted by monkeys and friendly park rangers. The beach is expansive and water very warm. Take goggles to see the marine life out toward the tail part of the beach. Highly recommend this home!

Dear Nadine, thank you for being such great guests!  Happy guests, happy life. Hope to see you again soon!

This is a lovely home in a lovely location. The view can't be beat. The house is very clean and well laid out. There are 4 separate suites so we felt like we could have our privacy need be or join with everyone in the shared living spaces. The pool is amazing and we spent most of our time in it. The hosts are very responsive and take great care of this property. I would love to come back.

There is no better compliment than a guest that wants to return! Thank you soooo much Maria.  Hurry back and stay longer :-)

Incredible view, location, great hosts. Already planning a 2024 return :)

Thank you so much Louise!!  We can't wait to see you all next year :-)

An incredible house with a great view, the hosts are very attentive to any questions.

Una casa increíble con gran vista, los anfitriones muy atentos a cualquier duda.

As a family of five with three grown sons this was the perfect property for our family. Having four bedrooms with king beds was wonderful -- everyone had their own space and no one had to sleep on a pull out sofa. The home itself is beautifully decorated, well designed, clean, and functional. The pool area and view were big hits and provide that "wow" factor. Christine is great to work with and provides lots of information in advance and is happy to answer questions during your stay. The drive up/down the mountain does require a bit of getting used to, but it did not deter us or impact our overall impression. We enjoyed structuring our days to head out in the morning, explore the area and try various activities, then return before sunset for a dip in the pool and a family meal at the house. The BM Grocery in Uvita had a great selection of groceries and wine; everything we needed to cook and relax at home. Don't hesitate to book; the pictures are stunning but it's even better in person.

Thank you so much Elizabeth, we are so happy you enjoyed your vacation with us!!  Hurry back and stay longer ;-)

Really Nice stay, views were exceptional.  We loved this place!

Thank you Jeff, wishing you  safe travels home and a speedy return to our little corner of paradise!

A beautiful house, all as described - and more: very well and thoughtfully equipped all around, incl. Beach chairs, cooler and boogie boards! Very personable check in and check out and excellent directory available

Dear Lydia, thank you for being our guest. We're so glad you enjoyed your vacation with us!  Come back soon :-)

This house is divine! Our family of 6 stayed for two weeks and adored every minute. The pool is absolutely dreamy and kitchen is well stocked.  The beds are all comfortable with fresh bedding, plus bath and beach towels are all great.  The drive up the mountain becomes "old hat" after about drive 3, but the need for a 4x4 vehicle is no joke!  There are amazing beaches all up and down the highway making it a less than 20 minute drive from home to beach chair on the sand. They also have the house stocked with great beach chairs, boogie boards, and a cooler. We definitely plan on coming back! Be sure to hit up the Uvita Farmer's Market on Wednesday mornings and the BM Supermercado has everything you need for easy living. Plus, there are super restaurants all over the cute town. Enjoy!!!

Dear Leah, thank you for being our guest. We're so glad you enjoyed your vacation with us!  Hurry back and stay longer ;-)

The house is more beautiful in person than in the pictures!  Tom and Christine are there to greet you at the check-in and respond quickly to any questions during your stay.  The kitchen is well-stocked with essentials and beyond for cooking or grilling.  We spent most of our time at the house on the patio absorbing the view and wildlife or swimming in the pool. The location is convenient to beaches and activities (surfing, snorkeling, waterfalls) and great local restaurants.  We can't wait to come back!!

Dear Debbie, we're so happy you enjoyed Casa Ballena Pacifica!  Hope you return very soon.

The pictures don’t do this beautiful home justice! From the moment you walk in and see the picturesque views of both the jungle and the ocean, you don’t want to leave! The house had everything we needed and comfortably fit our group of 12.  The kids loved the lofts and the pool and the adults enjoyed the lounge chairs and relaxing nature surrounding us.   Christine was wonderful and very responsive to anything we needed, and checked in on us.  The drive is a bit daunting the first time, but you become an old pro quickly (4x4 is a must!).  But to get those views, it’s worth it!

This place was stunning! Great views and easy access to Ojochal in the south, Uvita and Dominical slightly north. We've been to this area before and were very happy with the place. Everything was brand new and they went out of their way to make us feel at home. Christine and Tom made this seamless and easy. They also provided a concierge service that really delivered. We had a private chef for 8 people and massages in house several times on our stay. The pool is wonderful and most times you don't want to leave! We'll be back! We had a group of 8 adults and a baby. They were even able to provide a play pen and high chair so we didn't have to travel with one. Howler monkeys, toucans, scarlets and many other birds were observed from the pool/outdoor eating area. Fantastic all around.

Great home,  amazing views.  Pool was so refreshing.  Not far from town.  Thomas was very helpful upon our arrival.  We would definitely come back.

Literally made our trip. Such an amazing house with all the amenities you could possibly want or need. We wanted a dream vacation and we got it. 10/10 would recommend and stay again.

This property is ever more beautiful than in the pictures. My family and I just spent a week enjoying Uvita and the surrounding area. The hosts, Tom and Christine make check in a breeze and can help provide guidance on tours for the surrounding area. The property is up a small mountain road, but the view is totally worth it!

Dear Dave, we are so pleased that you enjoyed your vacation at Casa  Ballena!! There is so much to do and see, you could spend weeks here. Hurry back and stay longer ;-) Christine and Tom, Jaguar Property Management

Christine & Tom are very helpful and keep an open line of communication that makes it easy when you have any questions. Not to mention the property is absolutely stunning!

Thank you for being our guest Amanda, so glad you had a great time!!!

Absolutely incredible! This is the one and only place to stay!! The house is brand new and perfectly equipped with everything you could need. There are quite a few towns nearby to drive and enjoy a meal out or adventures during the day. Christine and Tom are the perfect hosts and have thought of everything to make their guests feel 100% at home. The location is perfect. Unbelievable views from every room in the house. Open the doors and enjoy outdoor living 24/7. It IS up a very steep rocky road so make sure your car rental is a 4x4!! But if not, Christine and Tom have a couple of recommended drivers who are excellent as well. Truly don’t have a single negative thing to say about this rental. We’re already booking for next year!

Dear Katelyn, we are so happy you loved Casa Ballena Pacifica!  The best compliment ever is to have guests that want to return.  Happy guests, happy life!!  We are so looking forward to meeting your families next year ;-) Christine and Tom, Jaguar Property Management
