The home is located in Ballena, just south of Uvita.

Uvita is one of the Central Pacific's best kept secrets. The beaches are beautiful, the hills are lush, wildlife is abundant and its the perfect place to surf, horseback ride or just relax. There are wonderful restaurants, banks, grocery stores, bakeries and several National Parks.

If you are looking for a beautiful beach destination that is far less developed than Manuel Antonio, Uvita is a fantastic alternative. The highlight is Marino Ballena National Park, featuring the famous sandy "Whale Tail" where migrating humpback whales can be seen just offshore. You can whale watch, dolphin watch or snorkel.

Uvita also makes a great base for exploring Dominical (12 miles North) which is a fun, funky hippie and counterculturist enclave with great shops, dining, live music, candlelight yoga, spas, bars and beach.

The tiny town of Ojochal is 9 miles to the South and is known as one of the best foodie town in Costa Rica. Ojochal also offers easy access to Playa Ventanas, a small and beautiful beach famous for its sea caves.
For those who enjoy golfing, the southern pacific’s only golf course, Osa Golf Course, is an easy 20 minute drive south.
Guests will meet with an Osa Property Management representative at our office in Uvita for check-in, and then be escorted to the home. Check-in must be completed by 8 pm. If guests will be arriving between 8 pm and 9:30 pm, a $50 late check-in fee will be required to be paid prior to entry.

No arrivals after 9:30 pm

Osa Property Management will also be available from 8 am - 5 pm.
Ballena Bliss Estate is a private property with no shared spaces. Guests will have the exclusive use of the entire property and the swimming pool.
A private vehicle is strongly recommended.

A 4x4 vehicle is always recommended, but other 2x4 vehicles can access the property (small vehicles will not make it to the house). Osa Property Management drives a 2x4 Toyota Escort Sport that can easily make it to the home.

This part of Costa Rica does not have UBER and private taxis are not always available.
