A little slice of heaven
The home is beautiful and the view is amazing. There are several outdoor dining and "hang out" areas that just add to the experience. The pool was perfect - our family was in it all the time. It is a short drive to Uvita (5 minutes). But the best part is Nicholas, Licho and Darling. They make sure your every need is covered and make you feel like family. Would 1000% stay here again.

We absolutely loved our stay! The home is simply fabulous! The many outdoor spaces were the highlight of our trip! We loved spending our afternoons hanging out in the pool and enjoying the sounds of the rainforest! Licho and Darling were so sweet and handled all of our requests within minutes! This home is the definition of Puravida! We are already making plans to return!

Paradise in Uvita
La Libelula is a very special place and we are grateful to have spent 10 days there. The home is enormous and beautiful, but the pièce de résistance is the stunning pool and garden. The landscaping is thoughtful and perfect—truly a paradise. The pool is very large and well maintained. It seems magically so, but it comes down to the care and diligence of Licho, the onsite property manager, who I saw discreetly cleaning the pool before dawn. The pool temp is perfect. From reading in the shallows to dodgeball, we enjoyed it multiple times a day. The garden has so many special places to sit that our biggest vacation challenge was adequately taking advantage of them all. Our favourite was the bird watching platform which somehow always managed to be largely shaded, and got a light breeze being perched over a large hill. We moved the rocking chairs there, under the umbrella and saw loads of birds- macaws, parrots, parakeets, toucans, hummingbirds, tanagers, great kiskadees, and more —plus howler monkeys. We also particularly loved: lunching in the rancho; the sofa area by the pool; and the hammocks. Licho and Darling are lovely people. Always there for you while affording you total privacy. We enjoyed Darling’s meals, especially her guacamole and pico de gallo. Each bed/ensuite is comfortable, large and has ample storage. Location is perfect--close to Uvita but doesn’t feel so. The home was clearly designed and built as a labour of love. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Amazing property
I’m almost at a loss about where to start. The home owner has thought of everything. There is nothing we wanted for. Outdoor and indoor spaces were lovely. The pool area alone made the stay worth it. So many birds to see from the viewing deck. Toucans coming very close. A great meal from Darling, and licho was so friendly and helpful, even bringing a generator when the power was out for several hours. And their little cat added to our enjoyment. Thanks so much. We will be back!!

We spent 10 days here and would recommend it to anyone. We travelled with 3 other couples (8 people total) and the house was perfect. Some house highlights we loved were the massive pool, outdoor dining areas, open air main floor and that every bedroom had an ensuite with ice cold air conditioning. We enjoyed seeing monkeys pass by the pool daily in the late afternoons as well as toucans and macaws. An absolute must is ordering dinner from Darling and Licho, they were incredible hosts and a real asset to have. They live next door and have perfected making you feel like you’re in your own private oasis while also making sure your stay is tidy and the property is maintained flawlessly. We can’t wait to return.

Mediocre Experience
I traveled with family, an elderly couple and teenage boys. The house is definitely gorgeous with breathtaking views and a beautiful outdoor area. I will list the good and the bad. Cons *No Central AC- ductless air conditioners are provided in each room but there is no AC on the first floor. Upon my arrival, one of the AC's would not blow cold air. A technition was out that same evening to add refrigerant. *Gate control did not work- Had to wait 8 to 10 minutes for the main gate to open and close; the control was exchanged the following day. *Indoor Jacuzzi did not work. Filled up the tub excited to relax just to find out the jets do not turn on. *Outdoor Jacuzzi did not work- notified Darling, no response. *Refridgerator leaking water/freezer shelf broken- notified Darling who placed a towel underneath to prevent any slips. *No toilterties provided such as, shampoo and conditioner. *No paper towels/napkins provided. We ordered dinner one night, which was delicious, only thing missing was napkins. *No bathroom on the main floor, bathrooms are only located upstairs. *No coffee, water filter or herbs/spices. *Power goes in and out (normal). Had to restart washer/dryer, which is located outside the home. *No light cleaning provided. Beds were never made on the second day as promoted *Beds are hard and not comfortable. Pros- *Exceptional property management-Darling and Licho *Location- Center of Uvita *Beautiful Property-layout, view, outdoor area *Food-PrivateChef 10/10

Best of Uvita!
What hasn’t been said previously? The house, outside areas, pool, and view are all beautiful - hard to capture in pictures. Licho and Darling (the caretakers who live in a house up the hill from the villa) are just wonderful people. A week prior to arrival, Licho lined up a great snorkeling/whale watching trip and an awesome ATV trip to waterfalls and a coffee plantation. He met us at the edge of town and led us to the villa. He is so warm, friendly, funny, and helpful - he really adds to the experience. We had them prepare meals for us twice, and Darling really is an exceptional cook. The chicken enchiladas in particular were out of this world - so good! They cook at their place and drop it off at 6:30. There is a menu in the kitchen to choose from - definitely worth doing. Uvita itself is small - you’ll learn your way around quickly, and there are some good places to eat. The Uvita Waterfall was a good visit. Hanging around the pool, enjoying the sights and sounds was great, too. Perfect place for that! Do get a 4x4 for your rental car - the pavement ends well before you get to the very cool automatic gates leading to the driveway and up to the house. The extra traction is nice and I’d worry somewhat going up the steep hills without it, but you really need the better ground clearance around Uvita. We had such a wonderful, relaxing stay. Even the weather was great - mostly blue skies and sunshine.

Beautiful vacation home
La Libelula is a beautiful 4BR, 4BA home with great views of the ocean. It's very well maintained and has a great kitchen fully stocked if you like to cook. An amazing pool, outdoor kitchen and plenty of seating for everyone. There were 7 of us and had plenty of room. It was the perfect location for all kinds of excursions! Licho provided us with rental car reservations and arranged all of our excursions. His wife Darling is an awesome cook, she'll cook your meals for $40 plus groceries, which was awesome! They were both friendly and professional, providing excellent concierge service! We had the best vacation and would highly recommend staying here! Looking forward to staying here again soon!! Pura Vida!!

Perfect for family
La Libelula was perfect for our family gathering of 8 of us. The home is located just outside of town making it convenient for us to get to stores beach etc. The large pool and many sitting areas offer a variety of cool areas to hang out. Licho was great, he was there if you needed him and made himself scarce when you wanted to be alone. The number of Toucans visiting each day was astounding. We would recommend this house for larger groups and families.
