About this property

Villas Licuala, situated on a paved road five minutes from Uvita, is a meticulously designed private three bedroom home. Set on three acres of landscaped botanical gardens that offer sweeping ocean views to one side and primary rain forest on the other, this secluded and luxuriant hideaway is totally attuned with its environment. The 500 million year old tropical rainforest dictated the design, use of materials, services and general ambiance. The result is ultra-deluxe comfort laced with total guest privacy in a low-key casual atmosphere.
The informal and accommodating owners live on the second and third floor of the pagoda style home that sits 75 meters to the South and are friendly and full of information.

Beautiful House in need of some love and care

This mansion is a jewel of architecture and gardening. 2 master bedrooms are perfect but room 3 has not a queen size bed but only 140cm wide and the bathroom needs fixing. Not OK for larger European folks! The kitchen needs an upgrade and the owner knows that. The pool is perfect. Want to sleep next to the jungle?Book this!

Amazing property!

Three separate suites, each with ensuite. Extremely comfortable and spacious. Definitely recommend an SUV for the drive up! Would return.

Stunning!

This property surpassed our expectations. It’s unique design with outdoor living, pool, views… I could not ask for more! The jungle is lush and the property really beautifully planted. Jason is a gracious host, easygoing, there for whatever you need. We feel so fortunate to have been able to spend a week there. Ps. Prior reviews suggest the road is bad. We did not find that to be the case. We were able to drive the road without 4WD, just take your time.

About the host

Hosted by Jason or Victoria Hughes

Victoria and Jason moved to Costa Rica in Victoria's mother's footsteps. They built their home in 2006 and live there with their two children.

Why they chose this property

The property is one of the few ocean view lots that has a paved road and is close to town (less than 5 minutes). It is also the first lot in the development that is flanked by primary rain forest. This property is 5 minutes by car to the nearest beach called Hermosa.

What makes this property unique

The property is very close to town but definitely removed from the commercial center. Most ocean view homes for rent in Uvita require 4 wheel drive and involve rather long drives up steep slopes (at least 15 minutes up a hill for the majority of Uvita ocean view homes). This is one of the primary reasons Jason and Victoria bought here. Add in the primary forest laced with an ocean view and a paved road and there was really no other option that even remotely compared. There are also strong winds here that are unique and cool down the property by at least five degrees relative to the rest of Uvita.
