La propiedad tiene grandes áreas abiertas donde cada casa tiene su propio espacio y privacidad y cada una es única.
La luz del sol y una sensación de ligereza definen la cabaña blanca. La cabaña está construida debajo de enormes árboles y al lado de la piscina, orientada al este para disfrutar de excelentes vistas al océano y para disfrutar de la brisa del océano. Grandes terrazas con tumbonas y hamacas hacen de este lugar perfecto para relajarse después de un largo día en la playa. Las ventanas francesas traen luz y el verde de la jungla circundante; Su interior blanco complementado con paredes de madera de teca y arte, realmente reflejan las ideas del propietario para la comodidad de la playa. El diseño de piso abierto permite una cena fácil y cómoda en interiores y exteriores. La cabaña tiene un área de descanso bien definida con cama queen size y un sofá, y cocina - comedor.

La hermosa área de la piscina, rodeada de jungla y jardines, incluye un pabellón con tumbonas y una zona de ocio con tumbonas y sombrillas. El área de la piscina es el lugar perfecto para ver grandes familias de monos capuchinos y aulladores asaltando las copas de los árboles y observar los increíbles tucanes en los árboles frutales cercanos. La propiedad es interesante para explorar. Consiste en una auténtica jungla tropical con jardines de bromelia añadidos alrededor de cada casa y plantas con muchos colores y fragancias. Los numerosos árboles de cacao y plantas de jengibre inspiraron el nombre, "Ginger & Cacao".
La propiedad es mantenida por cuidadores. Para su servicio y conveniencia, residen en una cabaña separada en la propiedad.
"Ginger & Cacao" está perfectamente ubicado a pocos pasos de la playa de Punta Uva, una de las más llamativas de la zona. Un lugar raro que aún se mantiene lo más natural posible, con un mínimo impacto negativo de sobredesarrollo. Aquí es donde la selva se encuentra con la playa de arena blanca con sus aguas color esmeralda y los almendros proporcionan una sombra natural. No está lleno de gente y es muy seguro para nadar, hacer kayak y bucear. En Punta Uva uno siente la conexión completa con la naturaleza. No hay nada más hermoso que subirse a una bicicleta y dar un paseo temprano por la mañana al Refugio de Vida Silvestre Gandoca-Manzanillo. En este momento del día, hay tanta vida y actividad en la jungla. Los monos aulladores llaman desde las copas de los árboles, mariposas y pájaros vuelan buscando comida. Punta Uva es un área muy privada, alejada del tráfico y la congestión en áreas más cercanas a Puerto Viejo. Hay pocos restaurantes excelentes y los mejores suministrados en la tienda de comestibles del área. En solo 10 minutos en automóvil, si lo desea, puede llegar rápidamente a Puerto Viejo.
Por la noche, la acción sucede aquí, en Puerto Viejo. Puede parecer un poco cutre, pero dale un poco de tiempo y crecerá en ti. El pueblo un tanto somnoliento se vuelve vibrante, lleno de vida y música, con el olor de la comida proveniente de todas las direcciones. Los bares frente al mar explotan reggae y calipso. Las tiendas permanecen abiertas hasta altas horas.
The White Cottage, individualmente y como parte de la propiedad "Ginger & Cacao", no solo ofrece un lugar elegante para alojarse en la selva, lo que es más importante, lo invita a una experiencia memorable en el Caribe de Costa Rica. Es perfecto para una escapada romántica o unas vacaciones de luna de miel.

¡Espero verte pronto!

Dear Robert, thank you for taking the time to review our property! You defined it so nicely, pretty and serene :) I'm glad you liked it. In regard to the beach access. There are four entrances to our Punta Uva beach. Three by car, at 0.6 km or further down the road, and one at walking distance from us, at about 300 m. As disclosed, the property access is off a public gravel road, not in good condition due the heavy tropical rains. I've sent you directions for the easiest access. According to our caretaker Cesar, who also tried to guide you, you ignored his help, forced your car the wrong way. And then got angrily verbal with him. We provide these directions solely to be helpful. Again, thank you for choosing us for your Caribbean vacation!
Most of our guests find these directions helpful

The property is beautiful! Our stay was perfect! We heard howler monkeys and saw macaw flying overhead. The beach that's a short walk away is breathtaking and pretty private. The town has a ton of little shops and cafés and restaurants to explore. I highly recommend this place to everyone. It's a little slice of paradise.

The pool was perfect, nice and cool and very clean which can be difficult in the jungle with the rain etc. Location was great, very close to many great restaurants. You are close to one of the best beaches in CR arrecife. Ceasar was lovely, it's clear they take incredible care of the property. highly recommend the cottage for couples.

Thank you for taking the time to review our property, Sandra. I must say though, that your comments left us terribly surprised. We invited you to sparkling clean and beautifully prepared for your stay house, that you enthusiastically said you loved. I checked on you every day, all you had to say was that you were very happy there. And I didn't doubt it. As we catered to your every need. We bent backwards to help you and satisfy your every wish, as we felt you were a lone traveller that needed more attention. Nothing was enough obviously.The caretakers were basically at your service all the time, changing bedding, towels, complimentary cleaning, entertaining you, walking around with you, keeping you company. They both were quite disappointed to hear that their job was poorly rated by you, after all the effort they invested. I obviously told them that the job they did was fine and up to the high standard we offer. And that having someone critic with no constructive grounds the service and housing, came with the territory, and it wasn't a reason to be discouraged.

Absolutely a picture of paradise. The grounds are lush and well maintained, the location felt very private even though you were steps away from the beaches and restaurants. Cesar, the caretaker went above and beyond and rescued us when we got in super late because of a flight delay and had trouble finding the property. The host contacted him and he was able to escort us to the cabin. Communication with host was excellent. We spent 11 days and did not want to leave! The previous rave reviews held true and this property was everything and more.

This property is beautiful, lush, private and serene. Nearly everything needed was at our fingertips. We give an A for almost everything. We would give a C- for communication from Zvezda: directions to the place were indecipherable, she answered us hours after we reached out to her etc. We would also give C- on the upkeep of the house and the grounds: Twice I tried to open the curtains, only to have the curtain rod land on my face or feet, our refrigerator door fell off, the hanging beds weren't safe enough for us to use during our stay. All that said, if there was more attention given to us as guests and maintenance and upkeep of everything, we would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Thank you for taking the time to review our property. I'm glad that you liked some of it :) In regard to my rating C. In addition to the driving directions provided at the listing, I sent you even more detailed directions. The same I normally send to all our guests, and they all arrive with no problem. Sent you also pictures of the location where you had to make a turn off the main road, and pictures of our entrance with access and parking instructions. I addition, I sent to your phone our location on Waze. That apparently, you didn't know how to open and use. Finally, I drove to the place you said you were, and guided you to the property. I think that for all that I did for you, I deserve at least a B :) In regard to all the else. You arrived with gastro issues and we took a good care of you. We catered to all your needs and requests. We offered you a complimentary cleaning, extra bedding and towel changes. Not sure how you pulled the refrigerator door to fall, but we didn't argue that, we just had it fixed by the end of the afternoon. Same for the curtains. However, will ask to have them checked and the rods adjusted if needed. In regard to the swinging beds. You were at no risk of falling if using them. Replacing the ropes with new ones was just part of our regular maintenance. In conclusion. I was at the property during the entire time. You didn't tell me anything of the above. By not providing your constructive critic during your stay, but sharing it here, you didn't help us to respond accordingly, and have you enjoy your stay more. But we understand, you were ill and not in good mood. Hope you feel better by now. Take care.

A Caribbean Hideaway
My partner and I spent a week at the White Cottage... aka Ginger & Cacao. It was exactly what we were looking for and needed. The property really is carved out of the jungle and the gardens surrounding the cottage are absolutely beautiful. It was very clear to us that there was considerable thought in both designing and maintaining the gardens. We also loved being able to see an incredible number of birds, monkeys, agutis, and other animals.
The cottage itself has a beautiful verandah that overlooks the gardens and pool area. It was perfect for sitting outside and relaxing... anytime of day. The cottage interior is quaint, quirky, and roomy. The local area is wonderful with beautiful beaches and restaurants. That said, you can easily spend an entire day relaxing poolside.
We would like to especially mention the excellent service and attention that the caretaker, César, provided throughout our stay. He greeted us warmly when we arrived, was very responsive, and super friendly.

Awesome place. Great location.
We loved staying here. It is as beautiful as the pictures. The onsite hosts were lovely and the owner is very responsive. You can tell she cares about this property. We stayed in the cottage and there were people in the other house only a couple of nights, so we basically had the pool to ourselves.
Closet and shower are great. The kitchen has plenty of what you need for cooking. I would stay here again.
A couple things you should realize...it IS Costa Rica. There are ants of various sizes in the cottage, especially the bathroom. Not sure there is anything that can be done about that. Also, yes, the monkeys, frogs, and various creatures can be fairly loud as they don't care about your sleep. Ha! Also, as I've found in most of CR, the bed is not that comfortable and could be softer with better blanket and pillows. But I'm a spoiled gringo, so I'm sure that's part of it.
Overall a great stay. We really enjoyed relaxing on the porch in the rain, or at the pool and cabana in the sun. The beach is an easy walk down the hill.

Dear Scott. Thank you for your review. I’m happy you liked the property and had a good time. It will be a pleasure to host you again. A couple of quick notes. The ants. Yes, being in the jungle, we are in their territory and in their way blocking their natural pass from one place to another. They show up during the rains and just pass, all of them harmless. The mattress. I’ve recently replaced the soft one with the current orthopedic one because guests were complaining that the soft one was bad for the back. Sometimes it’s kind of hard to get it right :) The pillows. The soft with natural filling are the worst to use in the super humid climate in the jungle, they absorb the humidity, develop rapidly fungus that turns to mold, the worst for everyone’s health. So I got special for humidity with waterproof protectors, probably not the softest ones, I do agree, but the best and the healthiest option. The blankets. We have two very nice and soft blankets on the shelves in the walk in closet, you probably didn’t see them. The one you used, is mostly decorative. Had you told me, I would’ve sent the caretakers with new ones. I’m sorry for the little inconveniences. I hope that our beautiful nature made it up for those. I do appreciate your comments on all as those help us improve our job as hosts. Thank you again! Take care and be well! Zvezda

Beautiful Oasis in the Jungle
We celebrated our 30th anniversary here & what an amazing adventure it was! We were greeted at the gates by Jose, his wife Carolina & their two kitties & they toured us through the property & made sure we were settled right away. The place is beautiful with a lovely pool and stunning views. We walked on our first evening to get dinner on the road below. The road to the property is a little steep so make sure to feel capable before trying it on foot & we would recommend a four wheel drive. Following the first day, we rented bicycles or a scooter nearly every day & visited most of the beaches in the area. It is a lovely ride to Punta Uva, Manzanillo, Puerto Viejo, & Cahuita Park for only $30 USD a day by scooter or about $14USD for two bikes. Such fun! The food in the area was amazing, many, many options & it was wonderful to visit w/Jose & Carolina at the end of our days out & about or relax in the pool in privacy as no one was in the other houses most of our stay. The howler monkeys were shocking on our first night but we quickly began to love the sounds of them in the nearby trees. We saw every kind of animal we were hoping to see on the property & we were able to get great pics & videos, except for the toucans would never stop long enough for us to take their pics. We cannot say enough about the kindness of the caretakers. We were even able to meet the owner Zvezda as she visited for a couple of days—she was very kind & lovely as well. Highly recommend!!!!

A cottage in paradise
We are sad to be leaving the white cottage after 4 nights here. This place is a gem in walking distance to a beautiful beach across the street. (Steep gravel road but totally doable) corner store and a couple of restaurants you can also walk to. We saw agoutis, green macaws, howler monkeys, a back and green poison dart frog, other frogs, a golden orb spider, hummingbirds, toucans, and various other birds just from the porch! The cottage itself is out of a fairy tale and has every detail you could need. Not many places we’ve stayed here has this. Pool is lovely and the gazebo has great hanging beds and sitting areas. Pablo and his girlfriend were wonderful and although we didn’t meet the owner she was always an email away with any information. I would highly recommend this place to a couple or there are two other places to rent on the property which would suit a family. An adorable cat kept us company outside as we listened to the wildlife. You should have a 4x4 to access property. We went to Pita Bonita, soul surfer, el Refugio and bread and chocolate so far which were all excellent. Wish we had booked our entire stay here but so happy we had the chance to enjoy the piece of paradise this place is. I’ll add that the ocean view in the distance is lovely and you can hear the surf.. The area is a cool vibe, different from the Pacific, which we liked and loved Cahuita National Park and the Jaguar Rescue Centre is an absolute must - best sloth experience ever!!!!! Pura Vida!

Beautiful property and amazing host!
This property was everything we wanted for our first trip to Costa Rica! The property was great and we felt very safe with the gated entrance and on-site caretakers. We saw some cool animals on the property, including poison dart frogs!
The beach was close enough to ride bikes to, which we did with bikes we rented at the bottom of the hill from the property. It was very quiet and quaint with the feeling of being in the jungle, but the luxuries of being in a beautiful home close to town. We highly recommend this property if you are considering the Caribbean side of the country!

Paradise on Earth
This place in incredible. The garden alone is worth the price of the stay. On the first day, we saw monkeys, toucans, and capybara from the porch! This home is straight out of a fairy tale, it’s so hard to fully grasp it’s beauty. It’s actually better than the pictures if you can believe it. The location is quiet and perfectly centered near multiple, extremely gorgeous beaches (that folks who stay in town would have to travel to).
There are also local markets ( and bike rentals) very close so you won’t have to eat out everyday! The neighborhood feels genuine and local and isn’t overrun with tourist attractions, which we really appreciated. Svezda, the owner was very patient with us (as our plans changed during the pandemic). She was timely and responsive, and always there for any question we had. More so, we absolutely adore the caretakers of this property. They felt like family to us and just radiated care. We felt very safe here.
I would ask, that if you are considering a stay here: please treat this place (and those who care for it) gently and with respect. I want nothing more than than the preservation of this heaven for others ( and hopefully myself again) to experience.
Pura Vida

Beautiful and serene
The unit itself was super beautiful and calming. Two big ceiling fans help keep a breeze going. Windows were mostly blocked by art/statues but a few were able to be opened, tho the curtains were a bit of a chore to navigate. During a thunderstorm we lost power but there was a flashlight handy.
When I checked in, they took us through all three buildings for us to choose which we wanted to stay in which was curious. After driving 5 hours from San Jose, I didn’t really want to be making any choices.
The driveway to get up to the unit is treacherous. Super steep and at a crazy angle with the poorly maintained dirt road. We had two cars - a sedan and a 4x4. Both made it up but was definitely easier in a 4x4.
Addresses here in general are tricky but the owner was able to send a Waze location. Only a 5 mins walk from the beach but again, super steep hill so be mindful of that. Overall, it was a great last minute getaway for a night or two.

Dear Caitlyn. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I’m happy that you liked your cottage and had a good stay with us. Few things in response to your comments. It probably was a misunderstanding between you and the caretakers who don’t speak English. They were very clear that your last minute booking was for the cottage. They couldn’t possibly offer you any other choice as the two villas were previously booked with guests already staying in. Our driveway was build with the terrain in mind with the adequate non -slippery surface. While we always maintain its good condition, we have no control over the condition of public road which is gravel, not mud :) I have disclosed the need and strong suggestion for arriving with a 4x4 at the listing, at the property description portion. What you call “crazy” curve, was designed by the structural engineer following the character of the natural terrain. Sorry that you found it difficult to navigate. I hope it didn’t disturb much your stay. Unfortunately, there’s no much I can do about it. Maybe a small price to pay for staying in the “beautiful and calming” property, to quite your nice words :) Thank you again for choosing us. Take care and be well! Best, Zvezda
