Amazing Whitewater View Of The Ballena Marine Preserve Islands

Important points below! Pura Vida!

This is the Costa Rican expression for everything that is good. It translates as pure life and is used as a greeting and a salutation. It is always spoken with a smile. Costa Rica is rated as one of the happiest places on earth. You can discover why.

Imagine secluded beaches where the jungle meets the sand, monkeys and toucans greeting you each morning, or swimming under warm waterfalls. All this happens everyday in the unspoiled beauty of Uvita.

Our rental home is situated in an old growth jungle minutes from the beach on the Pacific coast in Marino Ballena National Park, the only national marine park in Costa Rica. Ballena translates to whale. Humpbacks from the southern and northern hemisphere travel thousands of miles to have their babies in this area. Excellent whale watching, snorkeling and diving! We are halfway between Manual Antonio, the most popular park in Costa Rica, and the famous Osa Penninsula. National Geographic named our area one of the most bio-diverse areas on the planet. From the house and pool you can see the ever changing pacific ocean, local islands, incredible wildlife, rainforest, and beautiful sunsets.

The food in the area is the best in Costa Rica and maybe some of the best we have ever had - think Napa in the South Pacific. Expats from around the world have created amazing culinary delights. We can recommend at least 10 restaurants in the area. You can drink the water and eat the food and not worry.

The home has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a newly-completely remodeled full gourmet kitchen, laundry room, two outside patio areas, a modest infinity pool, and a stone BBQ (boogie boards, beach chairs, beach and pool towels, a cooler, a telescope and monkey-finding rubber boots are in the the bedroom closets). Listen to the waves crashing on the shore from bed as you awake to howler monkeys calling in the trees. The jungle is right outside the door. Take a walk and see all the wonders you expect from Costa Rica.

The house is an easy accessible drive from the main road with a wide, short maintained road leading to the house. This should not be underestimated. Most homes in the area take a long drive up a steep, single lane, winding road taking up to 20 minutes from the main road, especially difficult at night. Look next to the map on the listing to where the closest beach is. If it more than .5 miles from the beach you will regret it. We are .3 miles to the beach. There will be no anxiety driving to this house. Rent a 4x4 or all wheel drive to get the most out of your trip in this area.

This is not a resort town. It is an agrarian area with beautiful farms and unspoiled beaches and jungle. It is a place to explore and discover. It will excite your inner adventurer. 5 islands are visible from our home. I don't now of anyone else that can boast that!

We would love to welcome you as our guest to Casa Ballena.

Pura Vida!

Proud of this review. It is what we strive for.
Best Vacation Rental We Have Ever Booked!
5/5 Stayed Jan 2023
Janet M.
I have rented over 30 vacation homes throughout Costa Rica, Europe and Australia and I owned my own vacation rental which has made me rather picky and critical. It takes a lot to impress me. But this property really impressed me! The attention to detail is outstanding. This is a lovely home is set in a gorgeous setting with outstanding views. The house has everything you could possibly need, is very comfortable, very clean and we felt very safe. The outdoor furniture is very good quality and comfortable. We never wanted to leave the awesome pool. It is very conveniently located to beaches and the towns of Uvita and Ojochal. The kitchen is very well stocked - which is rare! The fact that Mark provides boogie boards, beach chairs and a good supply of beach towels speaks volumes. Communication with Mark was excellent and he provided all kinds of information. He has a full binder of information on the house and recommendations on what to do in the area - perfect! We loved this place and will certainly stay here again when in the area.

Perfect and relaxing getaway
This property is just as described and reviewed by many others: clean, comfortable, well located and with amazing ocean views. We were a family of 4; 2 adults and two children. The pool is small, but clean and perfectly located to enjoy both sun and view. It was truly a must for us! The beds are comfortable and the AC in the bedrooms is appreciated during warmer nights. The location is far enough to enjoy privacy, but close enough to town in case you need something quicker. We saw countless birds including scarlet macaws, green macaws and toucans. Excellent quality versus price property and we would without a doubt highly consider it again on our next trip to Costa Rica. Thanks again!

Great house and central location
Webhad a great stay at this house. We appreciated the large gathering spaces, the well equipped kitchen, the view from the pool, and the good AC in the bedrooms. The best part was the view and the sunsets sitting in the pool. The house is located close to all the best beaches and restaurants. All in all we had a great stay!

Pura Vida in Costa Ballena
Our family has stayed at many properties in the area. This location of this house is what sets it apart for us. We've gone a half hour up the mountain to get to houses, this was 1 minute. There's a little highway noise because of it, but not annoying enough to take away from the close proximity to everything and the amazing view. We would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic!
My husband and I spent 5 wonderful days at this property in Uvita. The house is beautiful and very well appointed. The host provided a treasure trove of information about the area, activities and other information that was especially helpful for us since we had never been to Costa Rica before. In fact, the information was so thorough, we even ended up helping out some locals we met on Ventanas Beach! The access point they normally used to come to the beach was closed for maintenance and they weren't sure how to get back to their car. Mark's "alternate route" saved the day! We also had several lovely meals at host recommended restaurants and tours by local, recommended guides. The property has stunning views of the ocean and you will see (and hear) plenty of local wildlife right from the patio. Truly paradise and a host who goes above and beyond!

Just book it already
We spent the week sitting on the patio or soaking in the pool, watching and listening to wildlife, from monkeys and agoutis to toucans, hummingbirds, and all kinds of other exotic and rare birds (you should seriously consider downloading the Merlin Bird ID app!). We watched humpback whales breaching in the sea, enjoyed the company of geckos and basilisks, and were very happy with the level of comfort and privacy. It was quiet but not far from groceries and anything else you want/need while in the country. We've stayed at 7 or 8 villas/houses in Costa Rica, and this is the one we''ll go back to. Everyone was very responsive and made the entire process seamless. We can't recommend this place enough.

Can’t wait to go back!
I can’t begin to describe our vacation at Mark and Allison’s place. The house was perfect, beautiful, welcoming and warm, like being in your own home. It had everything we needed and more. We had more than a few hiccups during our stay that included a couple of urgent care visits but Mark was there to help us every step of the way. We loved the location and ease the home provided us in doing all the things we planned and still was an oasis to stay in and relax while taking in all the beauty the home provided. My daughter is a zookeeper and was up early every morning to go see what birds or wildlife she could see on the property. It was so tranquil in a way that you couldn’t help but get caught up in the sounds, sights and smells that Costa Rica has to offer. As I said in the subject line, we can’t wait to go back and will definitely be staying here again.

Paradise!
We had the best time in Costa Rica! This house is exactly as described, however, the view! The View is way better in person. Everything about our stay was smooth and so easy. Mark gives a very robust document of tips, directions, information, recommended excursions and so much more. I planned everything based on Mark’s rec. We did snorkeling at cano island, a Jungle ATV tour which included a stop at a coffee farm and the horseback riding to Nauyaca falls. These were fantastic trips with guides that not only did their job but talked to you and got to know you! The Costa Ricans are so proud of their beautiful country and want to share it with you! We hiked at La Cosinga Lodge and saw monkeys. We managed to hit Playa Arco and the Whale tail at low tide- highly recommend both! Last but not least we stopped in to see Playa Ballena, Playa Pinuelas, and Playa Ventana - all at high tide but got to see three different and beautiful beaches!

I'm not sure I can describe how much my husband and I enjoyed our stay! The house is wonderful, all you could possibly need, well stocked kitchen, grill, beach towels and chairs, comfy bed, lush gardens, and an amazing pool. It's the perfect home base for so many activities but you may not want to leave the pool and porch. We loved listening to the birds each morning with coffee and in the evening with a drink. We were amazed by the birds, especially loved seeing the yellow-throated toucan. Mark provides wonderful information on excursions and restaurants. We hope to visit again!

This was our second time staying at this fabulous house. It has great views and an infinity pool from which to enjoy them after a day at the beach or exploring the area. The house is a short drive to a few beaches and great restaurants, supermarkets, etc. The property manager is nearby. Our flight to CR was delayed by over 24 hours and we got to the house late. The property manager met us at the house and made sure everything was ok. We had one small problems with the house and he came by to fix it withing a couple of hours. We hated for this vacation to end!

Best Family Vacation Ever
You will not be disappointed! Everything you see listed is exactly as it is and more. The home is wonderful with everything you'll need for cooking, relaxing, swimming, etc. The views are amazing! The location is extremely close to amazing beaches as well as outdoor/nature experiences, sometimes only a few min away. We hired a driver for the week which made it even more relaxing as to not have to worry about directions and he also gave us a lot of history, plus help in the language in getting things like chairs/umbrellas at the beaches for the right price. Even last minute restaurants, that were great, after the beach since it was New Years and not everything was open. The food in Costa Rica is also amazing! We've stayed in central Costa Rica before but were looking for a more family/outdoor/relaxing experience for the whole family (two young children and two adult children came with us so there were 6 of us comfortably staying for 9 days). We have 2 boys (11yr and 12yr). One with special needs that requires more flat land while the other seeks adventure. The house, grounds, location, and beaches met both of their needs. It was great waking up to the sounds of nature and coming back after a long day to get in the pool for cool relaxation. When we come back we will look to stay at Mark's place again! Thank you Mark for sharing your home & for all of the attention and help you provided us preparing for our vacation. Everything Mark recommends for food and fun is spot on!

Lovely house with an amazing view
We love this house and location so much!!!! This was our second stay at Mark's house. The first trip it was just my husband and I with our teenage daughter. This trip we included our other college age daughter and both of our mom's. Considering the grandma's are a little less mobile, we spent more time around the house this trip and it was just as nice. The birds and wildlife combined with the iguanas in the tree made every morning magical. We especially enjoyed the sunsets with the amazing view of the Pacific. We will be back!

This was my parents first time to Costa Rica and we wanted them to have a wonderful experience. Ballena did not disappoint. The house was well appointed, clean and spacious... and the views - just amazing. But it was the morning and sunset experiences that made this a great experience. The sounds and sightings from the birds, iguanas, howler monkeys and agotis made it extra special. The sunset views are the best too! We hope to visit again Ballena.

This is one of the best stays we've ever had. The view is spectacular, the grounds are beautiful and Mark is the best host. He has an extensive guidebook for the area and is super informative about the house. We took a few day trips to the beaches and did some fun excursions - boogie boarding, hiking to the whales tail, seeing the animal sanctuary....But we also loved lounging in the pool and watching the beautiful birds come and go. We also saw an iguana in the trees. My family and I highly recommend!!!

The best experience!
This was our first ever VRBO rental and wow did we make the right choice. We chose this property for the view but it was the hosts that really made it special. The attention to detail, the professionalism and concern that they showed is truly exemplary. The house is close to great restaurants, beaches and stores. We were traveling with children and an elderly person and found the house had everything we needed. Mark and Allison provided us with a very detailed information packet that was incredibly helpful. It saved us a lot if time looking up places to eat and things to do. The hosts were available for any questions or concern we had, they responded in minutes. It was truly the most wonderful experience and we cant wait to go back and stay at this property again!

We couldn't have dreamed that we would love the home and setting as much as we did!!! Glorious views of the ocean, coast and sunsets. Peaceful, spacious and elegantly appointed home that had all that we needed. Gorgeous, plush garden and yard. Ideal access to great restaurants and stores. Abundance of enchanting bird watching... and the pool was perfect to cool off in after a full day of adventure. Mark and Allyson were amazing hosts and such a great resource to enhance our experience! They were always available to address questions both prior to and during our stay. Thank you to both!

Costa Rican Adventure
Mark and Allyson's beautiful home is why we were lucky enough to land in Uvita, Costa Rica. The home was exactly how the pictures described it. Mark was a great communicator from the moment we booked our trip. He sent a Trip Planning Guide which we were able to use to plan our stay from beginning to end. We were able to witness two unbelievable sunsets which made up for the cloudy rainy sunsets while we were there (beginning of rainy season). Loved having the pool to come home to after all our excursions. The restaurants and all our tours were were top notch. We did not have one bad experience. Here is what we recommend. Breakfast-Bagel Time and Sibu Dinner-Sebas, Pizza Time, Ballena Bistro, Beehive, Aracari and Citrus Osa Canopy Tour-Ziplining Jugle ATV Tour Nauyaco Waterfall/Cataratas Nauyaco-Horseback Riding to the Falls Bahia Adventuras-Private Fishing Excursion-we saw a whale and her calf.
