About the host

Hosted by Oldrich Blaha

Host profile image
I am Oldrich, a Czech/Canadian. I love nature, peace, freedom and harmony and have come to Uvita to enjoy slower, more fulfilling days.

Why they chose this property

Uvita has both beaches and jungles and is not very commercial, giving me a real authentic experience and real sense of connection to nature. I love discovering new waterfalls and new places to dive and surf with my son. My wife prefers yoga studios and has many to recommend.

What makes this property unique

We are right in the jungle, yet a few steps from main spots. Our goal is to have all guests leave more relaxed than they arrive so we are very attentive to all little details to ensure you have a calming and peaceful stay.
