2 Oceanview/Rainforest Houses for Rent in 1 Paraiso Road, Punta Uva - Puerto Viejo, Limon, Costa Rica

Rare Oceanview - 300 Yards From Sea - Above It All

The most highly "starred" VRBO vacation property in the area, a personal retreat in the ocean rainforest.

7km from Puerto Viejo and 5km from Manzanillo - quiet, undeveloped neighborhood with a mixture of foreign and local Tico families, close to great shops and excellent local restaurants, Punta Uva is known as possibly the most desirable neighborhood in the Caribe Sur, and it's beaches featured by magazines as some of the best in the world. But stroll down to any of the local beaches almost any day of the week and it's all yours with hardly a soul in sight!

Two (approx. 80sqm each) ideally located, high-quality, comfortable and furnished houses with gorgeous views of the Caribbean and surrounding rain forest - just a short 300 yard walk or drive downhill to the pristine beaches of Punta Uva where the jungle still greets the ocean.

Private, tranquil, secure and set in nearly an acre of lush landscaping, the property is situated 200 feet above beach level, enjoying refreshing breezes, delightful views, and the gentle sound of the ocean. Innovatively designed and built in 2005/6 by Edgar Brenes, Founder of the Tropical Architecture Masters program at the University of San Jose, both houses incorporate ecologically appropriate features, smart ventilation and water systems, anti-seismic protection, featuring many tropical climate architectural details, and warmly decorated with Spanish tile and French stucco.

Monkeys, sloths, toucans and parrots are all regular visitors, and you will wake up each morning to the sounds of rain forest wildlife in all its glory!
