Casita avail to rent for add'l fee Casa Bambu is a 1 bedroom home situated on 1.5 acres with amazing views and an infinity pool. For guests who rent the main house a separate studio casita is also available for an additional fee (suitable for 1 to 2 adults or teenagers). The property has breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, white water beaches, Ballena Marine Park and at a distance – Cano Island and the Osa Peninsula. The custom house is tropical design, structural bamboo vaulted ceilings and local exotic hardwoods. Unique and charming – the property sits at an elevation of 1100 ft (300 meters) – keeping the house cool and fresh during the day, with mountain downdrafts to cool at night. A full kitchen with a gas BBQ, bathroom, living area, laundry and covered patio – all on the main floor. (The covered patio is a great for viewing songbirds, parrots, toucans, and aracaris as they visit the mango tree - not to mention the direct view of the Whales Tale and the Bahia.) On the lower level - a spacious master bedroom with King size bed and incredible ocean views. Offering A/C, quality linens, privacy, and large en-suite, along with a walk-in closet with a safe. Patio doors lead you to a private terrace where your infinity pool awaits. The house was designed for couples - offering the perfect amount of detail to create an escape from the everyday life of the northern hemisphere. Ideal for honeymooners, personal life celebrations, birders, those who just want to get away from the busy-ness of daily life. This property is serene, but full of plant, bird and tropical life! You will have the whole house and grounds to yourself. The casita will not be rented during your stay at Casa Bambu. WiFi at the house is very stable and fast Fiber Optic internet. There is a smart TV in the living room that can be used for streaming and watching movies. There is a washer and dryer at the house for the guests to use. Because the house sits at 1100 ft elevation, guests enjoy cool mountain breezes; however, we have installed air conditioning in the bedroom which can be used for a minimal additional charge based on usage and and the electric meter reading for your actual stay. Most guests who use the AC only use it to cool down the bedroom in the evening and have not gone over the budgeted allowance for electricity. Access to this property is along an incredible jungle road. (It does have a couple of steep sections to it and requires a 4WD SUV.) The house is about a 15 minute drive from town up a mountain road. There is a locked gate to enter the property and there are security cameras for the entrances and driveway to the property. There are no cameras in the house or pool area. Our property manager, Trina – will meet you in town and escort you to the property. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Massage - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Concierge services - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board - Safe ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near the bay - Near the marina ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Rafting nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 900 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96770000/96762600/96762528/b2dc43f0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Uvita Beach House: Your ideal hub for Exploring the Lush Southern Zone of CR Uvita - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 40 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-18&endDate=2025-12-19&selected=96762528&PinnedHotelID=96762528&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![An infinity pool, a lap pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/41000000/40200000/40190600/40190567/71630c7c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxury Jungle Villa\~Honeymoon Privacy\~Ocean View\~Infinity Pool\~Wildlife\~A/C Dominical - Ocean view - Pool - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 86 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-18&endDate=2025-12-19&selected=40190567&PinnedHotelID=40190567&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool, an infinity pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18770000/18762200/18762139/27165e15.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pura Uvita - Whale's Tail Ocean View, Modern home w/ salt water pool Uvita - Ocean view - Pool - Kitchen - Washer 9.6 Exceptional 65 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-18&endDate=2025-12-19&selected=18762139&PinnedHotelID=18762139&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/77000000/76340000/76335100/76335098/54da2bd1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Private Jungle Villa w/ Pool + Ocean Views, Uvita Uvita - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 10 Exceptional 64 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-18&endDate=2025-12-19&selected=76335098&PinnedHotelID=76335098&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool, an infinity pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/93000000/92550000/92544900/92544878/5333a44f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fantastic Ocean View Villa Dominical - Ocean view - Pool - Kitchen - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 20 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-18&endDate=2025-12-19&selected=92544878&PinnedHotelID=92544878&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100160000/100157600/100157573/8e76f45c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Most luxurious Villa closest to National Park 250m!

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! ##### Lisa T. Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jesse S.

Clean, well equipped and a wonderful view! Only the way to get there should be considered. It is not very difficult, but it takes some time to get up or downhill to go shopping or out for dinner. But it is definetely worth it! But it is definetely wortth it! ##### Nils G.

Wildlife, pristine views. All of the Whales Tail, in Uvita, is visable. Our favorite memory is going to sleep and waling up to the sound of monkeys and toucans. The road to the mtn. top is challenging for most, but worth the effort. Trina took care of everything to make our visit perfect. We look forward to our return. Internet is not dependable, a hot spot is helpful. ##### Linda H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Riva A.

Super communicative and was totally open to my many many questions lol! Arriving there, Jorge drove us up the insanely steep awesome mountain to this beautiful property! He showed us around and made himself available for any help we needed during our stay. I I can't even tell you with words how beautiful this place and the view is! There's no way anybody would be disappointed by staying here. Thank you so much for an enchanted experience! I can only hope to one day be able to return. PURA VITA! ##### Riva A.

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! ##### Bari A. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher H. Jan 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Christopher H.

Amazing time in Costa Rica! The property is located in the middle of the jungle with amazing views!! This is the first property I stayed at in Costa Rica that had actual screens on the doors and windows that worked! So no worries about any insects or animals getting into the house. The house is extremely clean and well maintained. The property manager is also amazing. She can answer any questions you have and point you in the right direction. She lives a few mins away and checked in with me a few times during my stay. Definitely an amazing time!! ##### James N.
