About this property

House in Tropical Eden Walking Distance to Beach

Come experience the pure life at Casa Pura Vida.

Recently renovated and just minutes from several secluded tropical beaches, Casa Pura Vida offers ideal privacy, close-to-town convenience, and first-rate facilities for travelers from all across the globe longing to experience the very best that Costa Rica has to offer.

Our guests only need to take a 12-minute stroll from the patio to get their toes in the sand at the nearest beach. And this stretch of coastline is so wide open, you could stay for hours without seeing another soul splashing in the warm waves out front.

Featuring two bedrooms in the main house and another “Monkey House” studio apartment on the opposite end of the property, Casa Pura Vida is ideal for up to 6 guests. Both bedrooms in the main house are equipped with air conditioning units, queen-sized beds and patio access featuring exquisite views of the mighty Pacific Ocean to the west.

There are one-and-a-half bathrooms in the main house. The kitchen, living area, and washer and dryer units are all located on the first floor. The villa is equipped with cable television, wireless internet and a BBQ, as well as all kinds of useful cookware for your culinary delights.

The patio at the front entrance of the villa was completely redesigned in December 2017, and with plenty of comfortable sofas and shade now available, now makes for an ideal spot to lounge around and sip coffee in the mornings or enjoy cocktails at sunset. The sounds of the local howler monkey community and the sights of toucans swooping through the trees only enhance these special moments with friends and family.

Casa Pura Vida’s swimming pool features areas that are shaded and areas that are exposed to the sun. So you can swing from a hammock above the pool while avoiding the sun rays, or you can stretch out on a lounge chair and work up a deep tan that’ll make all of your co-workers incredibly jealous. We call this having the best of both worlds. An outdoor bathroom and shower complement the pool area.

As you navigate the property from south to north, scoping out the beauty of the native plants and their incredibly vibrant colors, you’ll end up at the Monkey House. This is a spot for those that really want to be immersed in nature. The bathroom and shower are both outdoors (with plenty of privacy, so don’t worry) and the interior design is a splendid mix of river rock and native wood. And while the Monkey House may have the feel of vacationing with The Flinstones, the microwave, coffee pot and refrigerator provide plenty of 21st century conveniences as well. Where’s the best place to see monkeys on the property? Easy, the Monkey House, right around back where the creek cuts through the jungle.

In terms of location, Casa Pura Vida is located 10 minutes south of Dominical and 10 minutes north of Uvita. Dominical is a laid-back surf town with international and local restaurants, bars and lots of souvenir shopping. Uvita has great restaurants as well, and also features banks, pharmacies and larger grocery stores. Within 30 minutes of the villa are more than a dozen world-class beaches, all of which feature ocean temperatures in the mid-80s.

At YouGetHere Property Management, we strive to provide all of our clients with a top-notch vacation experience. We have an office nearby and are prepared to assist our guests with tour reservations, in-home chef services, car rental and shuttles, and any type of villa maintenance that may pop up. With more than 10 years of experience in the region, we only recommend the best, most trusted local companies for client services.

So why wait any longer? Book a stay at Casa Pura Vida today and start dreaming up the best vacation of your life.

Costa Rica visit
Wonderful location on a property well maintained garden and ample birds and wildlife. The walk to beach and it’s access was not fully explained though and that it is not really for swimming.

Wonderful stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Pura Vida. We were greeted by Alonso who was very accommodating for our arrival and throughout our stay, he answered any questions that we had very quickly and had lots of recommendations of places to eat and visit. We saw more wildlife on the property than we saw anywhere else. White faced monkeys were outside in the trees having breakfast every morning and were so adorable and curious of us watching. The only thing I would say is having a 4X4 rental vehicle is a must for the steep rocky hill to the property. We would love to return to visit one day.

Another week in Paradise
This was our second time staying at this property and it was just as fantastic as the first (hence why we came back). If you want to get away from the world for a while and immerse yourself in one of the most stunning landscapes then this is the spot. The house is fantastic and speaks to the traditional casita vibes you’re likely looking for if you’ve already stumbled upon the Dominical area. The flora of the property is next to none, I’d compare it to some of the finer botanical gardens in the world. The area is easy to get to and a short drive from town but far enough to make you feel the privacy your looking for. The area is very safe and great for surfing. The only thing we wish is that we stayed longer.

Amazing! Casa Pura Vida! Stay here, you won't be disappointed!
This is the perfect property to reconnect, recharge, relax, and experience life to its fullest! Our family loved exploring the property, enjoying the views, listening to and seeing all the wildlife, and chilling by the pool or on the beautiful deck. The Monkey Hideout was so cool! Felt like you were living in the jungle. Howler Monkeys, in the morning, get your day started! The house has all that you need for your stay. Full kitchen, laundry, and plenty of amenities to make the stay comfortable. Located between two amazing laid-back beach towns. Uvita and Dominical. Both spectacular. Close to great shopping and restaurants/bars. The supermarket is just up the road. Perfect for small families or 3 couples. Our two kids (18yr+) stayed in the main house and my wife and I stayed in the Monkey Hideout. The team at Yougethere was great to work with. They pointed us in the right direction for activities and made the check-in/out process easy. Pura Vida! We'll be back!

Wonderful Experience
Although the property was amazing with monkeys, beautiful vegetation, flowers and Toucans abundant. The VRBO could use some work. Very firm beds, leaky faucets, oven was difficult to use so we used the toaster oven. The grill needs replaced. The lock on the gate was very difficult to lock/unlock. The washer and dryer are very old. We mentioned this to the property manager, and he was receptive. Again, the grounds were amazing, the pool was awesome, it was quite an experience.
