Om boendet

Eco-Home At One with Nature - total integritet

BelÀget i bergen ovanför Uvita, Costa Rica, ett omrÄde kÀnt för sitt vilda djur, orörda strÀnder och vÀnliga lokalbefolkningen, ligger "Refugio Madreselva". Detta ekohem Àr ett rymligt fyra sovrum, retrÀtt med fyra badrum som har fullstÀndig integritet omgiven av regnskog och vidstrÀckt utsikt över Stillahavskusten, inklusive nationalparken Marino Ballena och dess ikon, valens svans. Den fantastiska utsikten och utsikten tar sÀkerligen andan. Madreselva Àr mer Àn ett hem - det Àr en djurliv, som omfattar 25 tunnland skog och 2 bÀckar, och Àr kapslade in i Oro Verde privata reservat. Madreselva Àr perfekt för naturÀlskare, fÄgelskÄdare, fotograf och alla som letar efter lugn och avkoppling.

Inuti Madreselva kommer du att mÀrka att vi har ett öga för detaljer. Huset var designat för att vara i ett med naturen men ÀndÄ erbjuda alla bekvÀmligheter och charm som vÄra gÀster kanske önskar. Den öppna planlösningen utnyttjar havsbrisen, stor utsikt och otrolig soluppgÄng över bergen. Gourmetköket Àr rymligt, har avancerade apparater och bÀnkskivor i granit. Det finns ett TV-rum med en stor platt-skÀrm, kabel och DVD-spelare. De fyra sovrummen har högkvalitativa, bekvÀma madrasser som ger dig uppdaterad och redo för Àventyrsdagar. Samla din grupp tillsammans för en mÄltid vid det stora tolv personer bordet med utsikt över den vackra (uppvÀrmda) poolen, dalen och havet.

Utanför Madreselva Àr du omgiven av naturens underverk. Sitt vid poolen och titta pÄ molnen rulla förbi, vÄgor kraschar pÄ valens svans, apor spelar i trÀdtopparna och fÄglarna flyger nedanför. Palapa med halmtak (kallad "rancho" i Costa Rica) hÀnger över dalen och erbjuder sömlös utsikt och Àr ett perfekt stÀlle att njuta av ditt morgonkaffe eller en solnedgÄngskokning pÄ BBQ-grillen. UtomhusomrÄdena Àr kompletta med hÀngmattor och bekvÀma möbler som Àr perfekta för att tuppla eller lÀsa den boken du har dött för att avsluta.

Madreselva Àr den perfekta hemmabas dÀr man kan lansera ett antal spÀnnande utflykter. Du kan vÀlja mellan ett dussin strÀnder, surfing, val- och delfinbesiktning, ridning, fÄgelskÄdning, forsrÀnning, kajakpaddling, zip-foder, fiske och dag samt naturrundade naturturer. NÀra oss kan du vandra till 3 magnifika vattenfall genom primÀrskogen, samt simma och leka i den lokala floden.

Stunning Property

our stay at Madre Selva was absolutely wonderful. the house was spacious, clean, and surrounded by wilderness. Every morning started with an orchestra of birds and beautiful sunrises. Highly recommend taking advantage of Carolina’s expertise, cooking, and planning. We had a fabulous time and will be coming back!

Amazing stay

We traveled to Costa Rica and stayed at Refugio Madreselva the last week in December. We were 2 families traveling together with kids ranging from 7-13. Everyone (adults and kids) both LOVED staying here. Carolina was so great with communicating prior to the stay and assisted w/ booking care rentals, airport transportation and excursions. She made us feel welcome and her and her husband prepared delicious breakfasts and dinners for us. The kids and adults loved just spending time at the house watching all the birds, admiring all the vegetation and most of all taking in the view of Whale Tail Beach. This is definitely on our list for a repeat trip. 5/5 recommend.

This property, house and staff was absolutely wonderful!!

We stayed as 2 families with kids 15, 11 and 6 for 3 nights. The gorgeous pictures do not do this place justice. Beautiful property and views! We spent much of our time in the pool, hammocks and exploring the trail. Carolina was a wonderful host and made us delicious breakfasts in the mornings as well as a couple of wonderful dinners. She was so helpful and engaging. We can’t wait to return to Madreselva and the exciting drive up the mountain!

The best house ever! The property and views are so beautiful, the pictures don’t even do it justice. We woke up every morning with the incredible sunrise and with the sounds of howler monkeys and other animals on the property. Carolina was also amazing! The drive up to the house is steep but with a 4x4 and experienced driver it was fine, and so worth it for the views and privacy. There is so much to do in the area as well. We would love to come back!

Spring break visit

What a week at Madre Selva! Carolina and Rumenigg treated us like family and were such wonderful hosts. Breakfast each day was delicious and the house is clean and comfortable. The ride up and down the mountain is definitely treacherous, but we got the hang of it after a few runs. This location is fairly remote and requires a long drive from San Jose, but the views are worth it. The views are even better in person than the pictures online! Overall our stay exceeded my expectations- thank you!

Special house

This house is beautiful, well-made, and you can feel the love of the owners. Both Claudia and Carolina were very attentive and generous. The beds and pillows are wonderfully comfortable. I did find the drive to be a bit exhausting. Make sure you are comfortable with four-wheel drive roads before booking this location. If you do stay here, I highly recommend going to the local water hole. It was gorgeous and we had it entirely to ourselves. Carolina is a great help with anything you need. Overall this is a very special place!

Spectacular mountain retreat!

We had an ideal family vacation in December at Madreselva . The view was spectacular from the house, and the house itself was tastefully decorated and spacious with lots of options for togetherness and privacy both indoors and outdoors. ( We were a family of 5 adults). Rosi the housekeeper was superb at preparing our breakfast, daily housekeeping and providing us with local contacts and arrangements for activities. Claudia's guide to the house and the area is very thorough and informative , and both Claudia and Rosi were very responsive to any questions or help needed. Would definitely recommend for a stay and would love to return!

Gorgeous house with stunning views. Claudia was a gracious host who patiently answered our many questions. Rosiess breakfasts were delicious and she also provided dinner on our arrival after a long travel day. During our stay we saw whales, dolphins, waterfalls, tons of wildlife, took surfing lessons and caught sailfish, mahi-mahi and dorado during a fishing excursion. There were many different unique and beautiful beaches to explore each day. The drive from the house to the main road was an easy drive and quite fun. This was an amazing vacation and I would absolutely love to stay at this property again. Pura Vida!

An INCREDIBLE property/one of a kind views!

We were so excited to stay at this house. The pictures made it seem like the most incredible property and even as great as those pictures were, the actual views and property far exceeded our expectation. There are views from every spot in the house. The kids spent the entire time in the pool. Having 2 master suites was perfect for us and our friends to each have our own private space. The journey to the house made the trip even more epic. It felt like an adventure each time we drove up to the house. If you have the chance to have Carolina and her husband cook for you, definitely take it. The food was amazing. WE had the chicken and rice with homemade brownies and it was the best meal we had while visiting Costa Rica. My kids haven't stopped talking about it. Carolina was great to work with and very accommodating. If you're in the Uvita area, I can't recommend this place enough. We hope to plan a return trip soon.

A Pura Vida Paradise

We had a family/friend group of 10, 6 adults and 4 teens. This house was absolutely perfect. The views, the gardens, the outdoor spaces, and the extra large, well stocked kitchen made our stay wonderful. Of course, the icing on the cake was Carolina and her husband, and the amazing meals they cooked when we wanted a break. Carolina's organization in advance of our trip was so helpful, she communicated with local tourguides and made sure we had a perfect itinerary, even when we needed to make changes and adjustments. Can not say enough good things. We loved waterfalls, scuba, snorkeling, fishing, zip lines, and everything about Costa Rica. Grocery stores are convenient, and well stocked. Definitely do not ignore the guidance about a good 4 wheel drive vehicle. The first time up the hill was a little scary but it got much easier after that. Pura Vida!

Magical family vacation!

We had a wonderful stay!! Madreselva is such a beautiful, spacious home with incredible views. Going to sleep and waking up to the sounds of the wildlife was incredible. Carolina is the house manager and made our stay even more special--she made wonderful food, was so friendly and fun to talk to, and quickly made inquiries and arrangements for any activities we wanted to do. Before our trip, she responded to any questions, and helped with our van and rental car arrangements. Our group was comprised of two families with a total of 3 teens. Our activities included: the nearby waterfall hike with the Nunez brothers which was so much fun, a half day at the "whale's tail" beach, a day trip to Manuel Antonio National Park, and a half day inshore fishing trip. We were all happy "lying around" the house too--with the gorgeous pool and plenty of space for everyone to go off and read or take a nap. We hope to be able to return to this amazing place!

Nature and hospitality

Communication with Carolina, (the property host) was excellent before and during our stay. She helped to coordinate our staggered arrival to the property, arrange some of our adventures. We had some quirky issues with the property gates and security alarms when we arrived, but Carolina was attentive to getting everything straightened out with just a phone call. The house was situated in the middle of the forest, with the view of the ocean and surrounded by the sounds of nature. It was cloudy for much of our visit so some of the nights were interrupted by the sounds of the generator located outside of our beautiful bedroom window. But the memories of the howler monkeys, toucans and other tropical birds prevailed. We appreciated the delicious breakfasts prepared by Carolina as well as the dinner the night before our departure. Our bilingual children and grandchild enjoyed conversations with Carolina and Rume in Spanish, and were pleased with Carolina's clear English for the others. The beautiful infinity pool was the desired spot for the grandkids, and perfect for our 5 year old to perfect his newly acquired swimming strokes. The hammocks were in constant use for relaxing. The bedroom on the back of the house with the queen bed and one twin bed was “less than ideal” as there was no cross ventilation and didn’t have an en-suite bathroom. The grounds were beautifully maintained and we enjoyed everything the house had to offer. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

A True “piece of Heaven on earth”
..

Madreselva is truly an Architectural Gem which captures the character of the valley as well as the sea view!! The “breezeways”make the whole place come together and work very well. Loved the property trail to the waterfall and the pool and gardens are magnificent! Start your morning early as it is the Best part of the day, and Carolina’s Hearty breakfasts are Amazing
The changing weather is Beautiful from the mountain view, and more fun anyway than straight sun. Lots of local adventures to be had and Carolina can organize them all for you. Both Carolina and Claudia were delightful company and VERY helpful. Lots of wildlife to see ( toucans,coati,tayra,) and hearing the howlers are a great way to start each day! Carolina and Rumenigg made us a Wonderful fresh dorado dinner for a Lovely and quiet romantic evening ( with background music from the frogs and howlers!) Very much Looking forward to our next adventure at beautiful Madreselva

Amazing vacation home

If you enjoy nature book this place , The house is stunning waking up every morning to the sounds of birds also sleeping at night with just the screens open so you can listen to all the wildlife at night . The house is landscaped so it attracts butterflies, hummingbirds and lots of other bird species . The view is unreal you can literally sit in the pool and birdwatch. The porch off to the side is also an excellent place to just sit and watch the jungle . The nature trails right on the property are a big bonus as well. I saved the best for last , Carolina and Rumenigg the property managers were a huge help with booking tours and organizing excursions,recommending restaurants etc. I had a flat tire which Rumenigg repaired for me and got me back up and running . The waterfall tour is really exceptional and just up the road .The only tour I did not have a good time was the one I booked by myself without Carolinas help. Her meals were amazing and she is just a pleasure to be around . Mucho Gracias Amigos Darrell and Nicholle

Trip of a lifetime!

There were 8 of us, 4 couples (all women) and we had a fantastic time. The scenery, the bird watching, the views and the weather were very accommodating. Rosi and Yanan were fantastic hosts who were there for our every need. The drive up is not for the weak of heart, however, so be prepared for eye popping excitement on your daily trek. We rented two 4 wheel drive vehicles, but one had barely enough power to get us up the mountain. I would recommend making sure you have something with good power. At the end of the trip we loved the drive and had made a fun game of it. We did, however, limit the number of drivers as it took some getting used to. The pool was leaking from a recent earthquake and they did their best to keep it with enough water to enjoy it. Rosi's breakfasts were terrific. We felt very safe and welcome. It was hard to say goodbye.

Amazing Property and Stay

This is the best VRBO property and experience our family has had. Hands down. Please do not pass this amazing property up if you are considering a Costa Rican vacation! The house, the grounds, the pool, and all the wonderful accommodations this place provides are all top-notch. An amazing house, with an amazing floor plan, perched high on a hill in an amazing jungle setting, and it all overlooks the wondrous Pacific Ocean and Marino Ballena National Park's Whale's Tail. What sets this VRBO apart, though, is how awesome Carolina and her husband, Roman, are and the wonderful care they showed us. Carolina was so instrumental and helpful in planning our excursions, the rental cars, and the transportation to and from the SJO airport. It made our experience so much easier with her leading the way. And she and Roman are such wonderful people - it was truly a pleasure to get to know them over the 8 days we were there. Their hospitality is unmatched! We made such great memories at Madreselva and I'm so thankful for the experiences we had. Our family would go back to this wondrous place in a heartbeat - it was that great! Thank you so much! Warmest Regards, The Catlin and Stickel Families

Paradise

My family and I stayed at Madreselva for 8 nights in July and had a wonderful time! The views were absolutely amazing and constantly changing as the weather changed. I probably have 8 versions of the same picture from the pool area...each stunning. The house was exactly as the pictures showed and perfect for our group of 8 ("kids" from 17-23 and three parents). The house was set up perfect for our needs with shared space for hanging at the pool, eating and playing games after dinner.....but also enough separation to allow the kids an escape to their rooms when needed. Carolina was so helpful from the time we first booked the trip, to planning our adventures, and helping us with everything in-between. We were supposed to land in Costa Rica at 1:20 p.m. and she had a driver waiting to pick us up and bring us to the house. However, after flight delays and rerouting, we didn't arrive until after 9:00 p.m. She was in constant communication with us to make sure we were ok and that our driver was ready whenever we were. When we finally made it to the house around 1:00 a.m. Carolina and her husband were waiting for us with the 4-wheel drive vehicles to bring us up the mountain! Was so appreciative for their patience and help after such a long and stressful day. Would recommend the house to anyone and hope to return some day!
