Very private setting with awesome view. My wife & I stayed on the property for almost our entire visit to Costa Rica with the exception of making a couple of trips down the mountain to get groceries. It made for a great vacation to reconnect, relax, & lounge in the pool.

Stunning views after an adventurous road!
My husband and I thoroughly researched properties in Uvita while planning our trip and are so grateful we found Casa Bambu. This jewel exceeded our expectations! The road up is no joke. We love to offroad so the 3 bumpy, curvy miles wasn't a concern for us but make sure you rent a 4x4 with low range and make the drive part of your adventure it's 15 to 20 minutes through the jungle each way. Casa Bambu is surrounded by lush trees and tropical plants with a clear view of La Ballena below. You feel completely secluded, although you may hear the buzz of saws working on properties nearby along with an occasional motorcycle blending in with the Cicadas. We woke up every morning to Aracari, Toucans and other tropical birds as we enjoyed coffee next to the pool. We ate in most nights to take in the sunset as we grilled fresh shrimp and ahi on the bbq. We'll return again to Casa Bambu for more Pura Vida!

Absolute Paradise!
Wow, wow and more wow! Casa Bambu is a special, special place, and we were so fortunate to spend 6 magical days there. Peggy was wonderful answering my questions and providing recommendations before we arrived (and yes, get the 4x4 - you need it. I’ve been driving Costa Rican roads for 14 years, and the road up is no joke. But it becomes an incredible part of the adventure!) Jorge and Trina (property managers) were amazing and answered any questions we had. And the HOUSE!! The view is spectacular. You feel really secluded in a private, natural, calm, quiet oasis. We loved cooling off in the pool, sunsets on the loungers, morning time on the covered veranda watching the toucans, beautiful dinners in the eating nook and pre-sunrise snuggles in the beautifully appointed bedroom with the spectacular view. You have everything there that you need to chill, relax, cook great meals and connect with nature. If Casa Bambu is available, grab it! You will leave relaxed, re-energized and definitely believing in magic!

The views make it tough to leave
The location lent itself to views for miles and miles and the treetops just off the balcony provided tons of bird watching. Toucans and Aracaris were close by and the occasional maccau flew by shoing off their scarlet red bodies. Bring binoculars so you can take in the colorful details of the toucans off in the near distance...there's a tree they seem to all love.Pay particular attention to the owner's plea to rent a 4x4, you'll need it and be sure to get one with a high clearance as there are potholes. If you've ever driven in the Caribbean, particularly St. John, you'll be at home driving here. Nothing treacherous, just long steep lengths of dirt roads. There is a very popular waterfall with refreshing pools at the start of the road to the home so this site couldn't be more convenient. There was a sloth hanging out there during our week's stay.The home was very comfortable and the bedroom was rather spa-like. The owner and the management team were very attentive. Definitely one of the more comfortable stays my wife and I had. And Uvita is delightful as it is not too touristy and everyone is so polite.

Casa Bambu - Home Away from Home
Casa Bambu was a great home base for our stay in Uvita. The property had amazing views and was secluded yet close enough for us to get to all the activities we had planned. Trina and Jorge were very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We would definitely recommend Casa Bambu for your stay in Uvita!

This was the perfect place to spend a few days in Uvita! Located right in the town, it is close to everything but secluded in the hills with amazing views. The house was stocked with all of the essentials, and was a comfortable stay. Communicated with the hosts was great throughout our stay.

Casa Bambu is a cozy, beautiful home with absolutely gorgeous views!
The drive up and down the mountain is no joke, but you will get used to it after a few times. Just make sure you have 4x4 and hold on!
The hosts have thought of everything—the kitchen is well equipped, they have boogie boards and beach chairs, and the towels and linens are fresh and crisp!
Our stay was short but lovely!

We didn’t want to leave!
Casa Bambú was so beautiful and comfortable, staying here was a highlight of our trip to Costa Rica. The views are just gorgeous, and we were in love with watching the colorful parade of bird visitors each day. We also loved the little geckos. The home had everything we needed, including a very well equipped kitchen that made prepping meals a breeze. I was pleasantly surprised to even find a set of yoga mats. It really feels like you are staying in a loved and well cared for home. The evening ocean breeze kept us comfy at night, we didn’t even use the AC. Peggy and her wonderful team were very helpful and proactive in communication, getting us settled in and checked out. Extra thank you to Jorge for meeting up with me afterwards to return an item I had left behind! You absolutely need a 4x4 to get there - the road is steep and rocky. We would just do one trip out for the day and got more comfortable with the road each time.

Perfect Stay in Uvita
This was our first time to Costa Rica and we were so lucky to be able to rent this property. 9 days was not enough and we're already planning our next trip!
From the start of the trip, Jorge met us at the base of the mountain and escorted us to the home. He walked us through the property and ensured that we understood how the water heater and stove worked (which was super simple). Jorge and Trina were always quick to respond to our questions via Whatsapp.
The home was well appointed and had everything we could possibly need. I loved that the living area was separate for the bedroom - I was able to wake up early and get breakfast going while my wife slept in for a while longer.
We had coffee on the porch every morning while listening to the howler monkeys in the distance. Multiple species of birds were spotted from the top deck including multiple fiery billed aracaris and a yellow throated toucan that visited often.
The pool was perfectly clean and an excellent break from the mid-day heat. A cleaner came by at some point during the trip, but I they were so non- intrusive that I didn't even realize he was there until I noticed the handful of leaves were gone.
The drive up the mountain takes about 20 minutes and you'll definitely need a 4-wheel drive for some of the steeper sections. We never felt unsafe on the drive, it is just a little bumpy.
Speaking of safety, the home has a huge gate but we never felt unsafe at the home or in town.
It was a perfect trip!

Total Tranquility. Beautiful Home.
This is a beautiful home and we enjoyed our stay so much. I wanted to get "totally away" for my 60th birthday and this place was perfect. The home is located up the mountain, so be prepared with a 4x4 and a fun, bumpy ride! We loved it! We saw so many birds every morning and evening we became "birders". We loved hearing all the wildlife every day. We fell asleep listening to the frogs. The house is well equipped to cook with many utensils and an outdoor grill. The pool is a delight after a day out exploring and the sunset each evening was glorious. We made sure we were back for sunset each evening; it was that good! The house managers, Trina and Jorge were helpful, and things went very smoothly with check in/out. Jorge showed us the way up the mountain the first day, which was helpful. The owner was also really helpful pre-trip with suggestions for the area. Communication was smooth with everyone. We did the Jungle ATV tour and it was a blast.We went to two waterfalls and a coffee farm. Highly recommend doing this. We also drove to Manual Antonio and hiked at the park and ate lunch in the area. Another highlight was walking on the Whale Tail at low tide. It was a beautiful day and fun to look up into the mountains trying to find our place. If you want a peaceful vacation home, this is your place. Be prepared to not want to leave Uvita!

Listen to the host about getting a 4x4 car for the long drive up. The owner and property management were both very responsive to questions before and during our stay. Thank you Peg, Trina & Jorge!

We have stayed in many vacation rental homes over the years. This place -Casa Bambu - was one of the best we have ever experienced. The house is lovely, well equipped and spotlessly clean. The whale’s tail view is spectacular. We spent 4 nights here and most of that time was spent on the upper deck or poolside patio. There are plenty of seating options for sun or shade. The pool is clean and cool. Many different bird species visited every day and we also so saw frogs and a very large green iguana. The kitchen was well equipped and easy to cook in. As mentioned in other reviews, the road up is a little challenging especially the first time and we appreciated Jorge meeting us at the bottom of the hill and guiding us up. The management team was easy to contact and extremely helpful. This was without a doubt our best stop in our 3 week visit to Costa Rica. We would come back in a heartbeat and would recommend without hesitation to anyone visiting the area.

Perhaps the best VRBO experience we’ve ever had
Exceptional property with management and customer service to match. From our pre-booking Qs, to the moment we checked out, we were so impressed with the communication and professionalism of the process. The home has a classy, understated, functional design that blends wonderfully into its setting. The infinity pool is just the right size and has great views. The AC in the bedroom was nice when we needed it - but the airy, mountain breezes kept our stay comfortable all the rest of the time. Any cooking tools we needed were there, including smoothie blenders, pots, fry pans, juicers and toasters. We found that, given the mountain location and 4x4 road, we limited our trips out to 1 per day for whatever excursions we had planned or eating out we wished to do. The upside to that was that we really enjoyed our mornings and evenings at the property. We will definitely be staying here again.

Rainy season stay
While it was not a typical rainy season according to the locals this year, it was definitely a wet one. We had rain for nearly all day every day. So we weren't able to take full advantage of the pool while there.
The house is set in a very scenic area of the mountain, when renting a car to arrive...make sure it's 4x4 but also has good ground clearance. The road is very uneven and difficult to manage in places. We had a Mitsubishi asx and it had trouble due to ruts at times.
The property is absolutely beautiful. We heard monkeys 🐒 and birds nearly all morning when having coffee on the porch. A few hummingbirds even visited inside on a morning flyby.
Local restaurants are amazing and the locals were always helpful. We traveled to dominical a few times as well for the beach and food. Then down to Marino ballena for a day trip (spoiled by rain unfortunately)... but found an amazing spot for bagel sandwiches at Bagel Time.
Jungle atv tours near the house made our day as well. The tour was great and had so much to offer and well worth every penny. We stopped at a coffee farm, and at 2 waterfalls that were absolutely beautiful.
I know we traveled in the rainy season, which is not new to us. While we understood the chance of rain was a possibility, this trip was literally rained out. We had to limit our time off the mountain due to road conditions and limitations on visibility when driving. We heard over and over this was the most rain they have seen in Oct in nearly 3 yrs.
I will say this bring a sleep mask if you're not an early riser, sunrise was 5am, and sundown 530pm. The bedroom offers some shading but not much in the early morning.
Overall the house was perfect. Couldn't ask for more. Communication with Trina and Jorge the house managers was on point and easy. Even when we locked the keys inside 🤦♀️...trust me it happens.
If you're looking for a private place with no need for the outside world, this is definitely a great option.
Thank you for letting us experience your home.
