With pool views of the iconic coastal features of the Whales Tail , Ballena Island and Three sisters rock formations. Costa Rica living is all about encountering nature in all its forms, soft breezes and rain, bright sunshine and dappled shade, clouds passing through the great room while you cook breakfast; morning birdsongs, accompanied by howler monkeys in the distance; toucans flying from branch to branch and hummingbirds from flower to flower; hawks and kites soaring high above the treetops; the evening chorus of frogs and insects; and myriad stars splashed across the midnight sky—all this is part of the Casa Carmel experience. The house is perfectly located to make exploring the glories of southwestern Costa Rica as simple as a series of easy day-trips.

Amazing view, absolutely beautiful
We stayed for a week and had such a beautiful peaceful time. Being immersed in the rainforest with a view of the ocean is paradise.
We love the bumpy drive up the road, and the option of stopping at Scala for dinner or grabbing a quick coffee. Close enough to drive to Dominical or Uvita for beach time, yoga, restaurants, etc.
You can’t go wrong renting here!

Idyllic
This property is 15 minutes off the road on a narrow steep dirt road. The gated community has a guard in the station who opens the gate upon leaving or entering.
The house is amazing! Great views, well stocked with kitchen equipment, opens up to allow the breezes in. Be sure to close bedroom doors so the air conditioning works in the rooms. It is isolated, quiet so we enjoyed just hanging out there.

Amazing view and perfect home for a family
The views are staggering with peaceful and serene property. The house has a great layout with lots of space for a family and entertaining. Corrine, the owner, is incredibly responsive and helpful when we had questions.
The drive to the house is for those who are comfortable with driving on typical Costa Rican roads that are steep and narrow. You must have 4wd to access the property and the roads to the home are well maintained. We will be back!

Dream vacation spot - Casa Carmel
Casa Carmel is nothing short of a dream vacation spot! The house ticked every box—breathtaking views, thoughtful amenities, and a setup that allowed for both adventure and quality family time.Casa Carmel is incredibly spacious and well-equipped. With 3 bedrooms, 3 showers (including a fantastic outdoor shower), and 4 beds plus an air mattress, the house easily accommodated our group of 6 adults. Note: The climb to the house is no joke—make sure you follow the map closely and you MUST have 4 wheel drive! Once you’re there, you’re surrounded by nature, with sightings of toucans, vibrant birds, and even giant leaf cutter ants adding to the magic.Casa Carmel is a place to unwind, reconnect, and experience the beauty and tranquility of Costa Rica. We can’t wait to return!

Perfect Family Getaway
Our family had a fantastic time staying at this home for the New Years holiday! The house was clean and comfortable, and the views were spectacular! It was quite and private, and we enjoyed taking walks around the neighborhood each morning. The owner was easy to work with and provided a lot of good information before we arrived.
We enjoyed doing excursions in the morning and then coming back to swim and relax during the heat of the day. Because this home sits higher up a mountain, it was the perfect temperature (not too hot, not too humid).
It was also really convenient to have two restaurants (Scala and Sibu Cafe) and a small store down the hill from the house.
We saw lots of birds, could hear the howler monkeys in the distance and had a sloth in the tree outside the kitchen window one day. It was the perfect family getaway!

Heavenly Adventure
Our stay was in the rainy season and it was very enjoyable. Early sunrise offers an amazing tranquil view of the Pacific Ocean, Low tide Whale’s Tail rock shoal, and Osa Peninsula. Each afternoon after hiking the area waterfalls, visiting parks, and indulging in delicious food we watched the afternoon rains and relaxed in this peaceful home in the clouds.
Driving the Costa Rica Mountains is an adventure! As mentioned in the listing: 4 wheel drive and day time arrival (at least the 1st day) is not optional (check sunset before booking flights and vehicle rental) we needed 5.5 hrs from out of country SJO arrival to the driveway. Downtown Uvita is a side street off of 34 with The Bakery, Farmstand, Smoothie cafe and local waterfall about 20 mins. Our favorite restaurants were: Pura Videa at Cristal Ballena, La Cusinga at Aracari, La Percela, NFusion, Citrus and of course super close Scala.

Beautiful and Relaxing vacation
We (my husband and another couple) had a relaxing week at this house. It has beautiful views of the ocean and is high enough above the coast that you can watch birds, and some people! gliding. We saw lots of birds including toucans and hummingbirds and so many blue morphos when we went for walks around the estate. The house is well appointed/provisioned (with two puzzling exceptions below). You definitely need a 4x4 and the drive is not for the faint of heart (20-25 minutes of rugged, twisty, narrow roads).We took advantage of the restaurant a relatively short drive down the road - called Scala - which was excellent.The puzzling things:1) nowhere to hang clothes in the ‘master’ bedroom. Really - no hooks, except a few in the bathroom for towels and no closet. I think the actual closet was locked for the owners belongings (which is not unusual) but there wasn’t any attempt to replace it with somewhere to hang the few things we did want to hang. We resorted to leaving the dresser drawers open and draping things over the edge of the open drawers. There is a closet with a few hangers in one of the other bedrooms, but nothing in the third bedroom either.2) nowhere to hang wet suits and towels outside. We enjoyed the swimming pool and tried hanging things in the bathrooms but they really needed the sun to dry between swimmings. It seemed odd to us to have a pool and not provide a place to hang wet things.

Beautiful spacious house near beaches
The house is about 20 mins form the Costanera (main highway) and have to go through steep hills to get there, so definitively a 4x4 vehicule is needed.
The gated community is very private and beautiful, and so is the house. Just as it is shown in the pictures, all rooms are are confortable and common areas are well thought and spacious.
There is ac in the bedrooms, but because of the breeze that you get in the mountain and the fact that you can open large doors leading to the pool and leave screens close to get protection from insects, we almost did not use the ac at all.
The house is very clean and very well maintained, so everything works great. If there is something that you need, John the property manager is available and will do his best to help in a very short time.
If you are planning to cook you own meals, the house has the best equipped kitchen, and even and outdoor grill for BBQ.
My family and I had a great time, and will recommend this property to anyone wanting to relax and enjoy both mountain and beach in Costa Rica.

We enjoyed our stay at Casa Carmel. You cannot beat the views and privacy. The drive up to the house was bumpy and took 20 min, but on the way we saw toucans, javelinas, crazy bees and a coati. We enjoyed every sunrise and sunset - always different. The stars were stunning too - we saw the Southern Cross. Casa Carmel is in a great location for local day trips to Manuel Antonio (ziplining and kayaking), Hotillo (hot springs), and the beaches of Dominical and the Whales Tail. It was a great choice for my family of four.

Beautiful view of the whale’s tail and the surrounding mountains
This 3 bedroom home in gated Costa Verde Estates was perfect for our family. We had excellent communication from the beginning with the owner and then the property manager upon arrival. We saw a lot of birds, parrots, toucans, and heard the Howler monkeys a couple mornings! The yard was beautiful with a large space to workout and do yoga. It’s in a great location about half way between Uvita and Dominical. The kitchen has all one needs for meal preparation. You need a 4x4 to get to the house, but that is very normal for any of the homes with the great views in the mountains. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a clean home with excellent views and a large kitchen and living space to hang out!

A true Costa Rica experience
We stayed at Casa Carmel for 6 nights and we did not want to leave. Corinne, the owner, and John the property manager went out of their way to accommodate us last minute. The property has amazing views, a fully equipped kitchen with all appliances (and a blender to make smoothies), and peace and quiet.
Things to know: you definitely need a 4x4 to get up the hill, eat at Scala restaurant about 1/2 way up the hill (not cheap but worth every penny), and RELAX on the patio overlooking the whale tale. Pura Vida all the way.

Beautiful Light Filled House with all you need
This house was perfect for our few days in Uvita. Clean, simple, elegant, not filled with lots of personal things from the owners. I felt like I walked in a minimalistic gorgeous landscape with all we needed. You definitely need a good 4 wheel drive and it is a trek from the main road, yet we loved it. It is safe and secure in this gated community, with space from other houses. We would stay there again.
