"One of the best properties in the world. Everything is world class and you truly feel special. The rooms are spacious and elegant. Everyone knows your name and you have all your needs addressed before you can even think about it!"

"My husband and I came here on our honeymoon mid June. This place is wonderful. It feels so incredibly private and peaceful. In fact, we hardly even saw other guests while there. The villas are lovely and the views are phenomenal. The villas have a kitchen which is fully stocked (plates, silverware, pots, etc) as well as complimentary drinks inside the fridge each day. The outdoor shower and tub are great. The staff are lovely. They take the time to get to know you and your names. They are very kind. The food was great. If you haven’t figured it out from other reviews, you absolutely need to have a 4x4 vehicle to get here! I will admit the drive up was kinda scary sometimes, but it gets better after you do it a few times. There are pretty steep dirt roads to get here. And have good brakes on the car for the way down! A few tips: -bring bug spray, there are lots of insects everywhere. -bring earplugs if you need to sleep in quiet. The wildlife can be loud at night! -there are shades over the windows in your villa, but they don’t really block light. The sun rises very early and it gets very bright. Bring a sleep mask if that’s something you need! -we shopped at the BM Supermercado right in Uvita, it was very convenient. We saw toucans and other amazing birds right from the hotel. You truly are in the jungle here, it’s amazing! I would definitely recommend staying here. Out of all the exploring we did while in CR, Uvita was definitely the best place to be!"

"The 24/7 front counter is a great feature, the pool is nice, the suite upstairs had all we needed in the kitchen, and hot water with good pressure in the shower. The fridge came in handy for leftovers from our favorite restaurant just a few minutes up the street. We met friendly travelers and had a fantastic visit."

"Beautifully furnished and comfortable condo nestled in a jungle setting overlooking the ocean. Sparkling clean infinity pool, full kitchen, BBQ pit on back patio, excellent service from host and staff. The 5k maintained rock road to get there from main hwy is a bit of a rough drive but well worth it. This was our 5th trip to Costa Rica and we have stayed at many wonderful places- but none as amazing as CanaVida. Only stayed 2 nights- wish we had stayed 2 weeks! "

"Picture this: waking up in a cozy house perched high on a mountain in Costa Rica, where the air is crisp and the views are endless. You spend your days exploring hidden waterfalls, and sipping coffee grown from the locals. Evenings are all about watching the sunset paint the sky over the ocean and the twinkling lights of the town below. It's a serene escape that combines nature, adventure, and breathtaking scenery. Del and Adrian were amazing hosts. If you are planning a stay in Costa Rica I hope you book this amazing home. Waking up to the fresh breeze, overlooking the town below and the whales tail is a memory you will never forget. "

"Beautiful eco conscious property, luxurious rooms with amazing views of the surrounding forest and the ocean, excellent chef on property and very friendly staff. The owners made a point of greeting each guest personally. It was truly a 5 star experience."

"Experience of feeling like you are in the middle of a jungle when you are are not…😉 Staff was excellent and very accommodating. Shout out to Manuel who helped my husband find several species of frogs."

"Property was beautiful. Room was private and very nice. Staff was amazing. Meals were wonderful. We will definitely return. "

"We loved our stay. All of the on-site meals were delicious and there were so many options to choose from. There were also a variety of unique drinks at the bar. Property grounds are beautiful with many plants and birds. The lounge net in front of the pool is a great place to watch the sunset with views down the mountain of Uvita beach. There is also a gorgeous yoga shala with the same views and yoga props available if you wish to practice on your own, plus yoga classes according to the schedule. We had a blissful stay! Note that you will need a 4x4 to get to the property. "
