Shuttle from the Airport:
We loved this shuttle company! Our driver’s name was Ronnie and he was awesome. (Everyone in Costa Rica was!).. Ronnie pulled over on the way to our Air BnB and let us check out all the crocodiles at Darcomes Bridge. (We saw 27 people!) He also stopped and bought us fresh mangos- what a guy!
Where we stayed:
Our jaws hit the floor when we took in the view of this place. It is an absolutely outstanding home. Photos and videos do NOT do this place justice at all. It is incredible. We are THRILLED we chose to stay here. With screen floor to ceiling walls, it is like sleeping in the rain forest. The SOUNDS of this place at all hours of the day I can’t begin to describe- waking up in the morning to the sounds of thousands of birds chirping and singing and the low howls of the Howler monkeys. Sleeping at night to the sounds of all the insects and wildlife. There was nothing like it! (Our host Ildiko was also incredible. We had no troubles with our rental!)
What we did:
Playa Uvita Beach! (It was really cheap to enter, a couple bucks for the day)
OSA Canopy Tour:
The Alturas Wildlife Sanctuary In Costa Rica:
The Wildlife Sanctuary was awesome. It receives animals that the government of Costa Rica confiscates from illegal situations (pet trade, or domestication by humans).. Their mission- rescue, rehabilitate and release. Amazing.

Playa Uvita, Costa Rica - City Guide Go Visit Uvita Costa Rica Travel
Described by many as one of the most biologically diverse areas in the world, southwestern Costa Rica has plenty of beautiful beaches and fantastic vistas. Of the many spectacular beaches found here, Playa Uvita is among the most stunning beaches on Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast. Located in the southern Puntarenas province roughly 16 km south of Dominical, a surfing hotspot, Playa Uvita is situated within the Marino Ballena National Park. This marine park is very popular because between the months of December and April Humpback, whales migrate here to the warm waters off the coast to mate before returning up north.Lying south of San Jose, the best way to get to Playa Uvita is to fly in to the Juan Santamaria International Airport near San Jose, and then catch a bus to Quepos, Dominical, or San Isidro de El General. From here, you can get another bus to Playa Uvita, which is a short drive away. An alternative option for tourists is to fly to the Palomar Sur Airport and then drive out to Uvita beach. Accessible throughout the year as the weather is gorgeous most of the time, Playa Uvita is a 2-mile white sand beach with moderate waves and crystal clear blue waters. Since this beach is part of the Marino Ballena National Park, fishing and hunting any marine life is strictly prohibited. However, swimming conditions are ideal here and tourists can enjoy a variety of water sports. The best feature of Playa Uvita is its beautiful landscape with estuaries and mangrove swamps as well as its lovely local village atmosphere.Horseback riding, snorkeling, kayaking and scuba diving are very popular activities here, while for those of you who prefer a more relaxed pace, you can go for long walks along the coast, sunbathe on the beach and enjoy the fabulous scenic beauty and marine life that Playa Uvita has to offer. A relatively quiet beach with not many tourists, you can also take a tour of the nearby Caño Island, Violines Island or Ballena Island, or you can hike to the forests and mountains a few miles away.

Costa Rica: Playa Uvita, Cristal Ballena Hotel
Cristal Ballena Hotel Resort & Spa: Costa Rica is located on the southwest coast in Costa Rica.
This resort & spa is nestled on top of the cliffs that over look the Pacific Ocean.
This hotel offers great access to one of the most unique parks in all of Costa Rica.
The Ballena National Park is famously known as The Wales Tale.
When tides are down, this natural formed sandbar transforms into a remarkable shape that looks just like the tale of a whale.
Around a half mile out, the visitor can get a remarkable view of the mainland from the now formed peninsula.
As the seas rise, watch the miraculous transformation of the peninsula turn into an island.
Waiting too long might result one to have to swim back to shore.
Miles and miles of beach line becomes your own personal playground. Feel free to swim in the large bays that make up the north and south side of the park.
Relax under the large palm trees that are scattered on the beaches edge and take time to explore the estuaries where the cool mountain waters from the east meet the western beaches of Costa Rica.
Coincidently this area is also one of the best places to view humpback whales migrating up and down the Pacific Coast.
Take a boat out to experience the jaw dropping size and power of these spectacular animals traveling from the cold arctic waters of the south.
After a fun filled day of whale watching and beach filled activities, relax up in the mountains at the Cristal Bellena Hotel amongst the clouds and forests.
This hotel offers breath taking views of the Pacific Ocean.
Costa Rican artifacts are scattered along the grounds of this mount side hotel.
Relax in the afternoon with a dip in the pool that overlooks the ocean. Or unwind with a drink in your hand while socializing with others around the patio.
Relax with candle lit meals with the feel of the mountain air on your back and ocean sounds ringing through the landscape.
At night sleep without a care in the world in the romantic styled rooms that offer the couple unmatched accommodations with the privacy of your own balcony.
Here at night, only the sounds of the rainforest and ocean are present.
So what is Cristal Ballena Hotel Resort & Spa? It is a marvelous hotel with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, nestled on top of a mountain side cliff which allows access to one of the most unique national parks in all of Costa Rica.
It is a destination to explore miles of undisturbed costal shores of Playa Uvita, with adventurous whale watching excursions, while still having the opportunity to unwind high up in the mountains within the grounds of the hotel.

BEST Natural Waterslide in Costa Rica - Uvita Waterfall
On our first day in Dominical, we hit off the Uvita Waterfall, a thrilling, natural waterslide in Costa Rica. Some people mistakenly call this waterfall Cascada Verde, but that is just the name of a nearby hostel. The 20 foot Uvita Waterfall is Mother Nature’s waterslide and is one of the best outdoor adventure activities in Costa Rica. There are also other, smaller pools downstream of the waterfall that are perfect for younger kids.
