À propos de cet hĂ©bergement

Eco-Home Un avec la nature - Confidentialité totale

SituĂ© dans les montagnes au-dessus d'Uvita, au Costa Rica, une rĂ©gion connue pour sa faune, ses plages immaculĂ©es et ses habitants chaleureux, se trouve le «Refugio Madreselva». Cette maison Ă©cologique est une retraite spacieuse de quatre chambres et quatre salles de bain qui bĂ©nĂ©ficie d'une intimitĂ© totale entourĂ©e de forĂȘt tropicale et d'une vue imprenable sur la cĂŽte du Pacifique, y compris le parc national de Marino Ballena, et son icĂŽne, la queue de baleine. Les vues et les panoramas Ă©poustouflants vous couperont le souffle. Madreselva est plus qu'une maison - c'est un refuge faunique, englobant 25 acres de forĂȘt et 2 ruisseaux, et nichĂ© Ă  l'intĂ©rieur de la rĂ©serve privĂ©e d'Oro Verde. Madreselva est idĂ©ale pour les amoureux de la nature, les ornithologues amateurs, les photographes et tous ceux qui recherchent la paix et la dĂ©tente.

À l'intĂ©rieur de Madreselva, vous remarquerez que nous avons le souci du dĂ©tail. La maison a Ă©tĂ© conçue pour ĂȘtre en harmonie avec la nature tout en offrant toutes les commoditĂ©s et le charme que nos clients peuvent dĂ©sirer. Le plan d'Ă©tage ouvert profite des brises de l'ocĂ©an, de grandes vues et d'un lever de soleil incroyable sur les montagnes. La cuisine gastronomique est spacieuse, bĂ©nĂ©ficie d'appareils Ă©lectromĂ©nagers haut de gamme et de comptoirs en granit. Il y a une salle de tĂ©lĂ©vision avec un grand Ă©cran plat, le cĂąble et un lecteur DVD. Les 4 chambres ont des matelas confortables de haute qualitĂ© qui vous laisseront rafraĂźchi et prĂȘt pour des jours d'aventures. Rassemblez votre groupe pour un repas Ă  la grande table de douze personnes qui surplombe la magnifique piscine (chauffĂ©e), la vallĂ©e et l'ocĂ©an.

En dehors de Madreselva, vous ĂȘtes entourĂ© par les merveilles de la nature. Asseyez-vous prĂšs de la piscine et regardez les nuages passer, les vagues se brisent sur la queue de la baleine, les singes jouent dans la cime des arbres et les oiseaux volent en dessous. La palapa au toit de chaume (appelĂ©e `` rancho '' au Costa Rica) surplombe la vallĂ©e et offre une vue sans faille, et est un endroit parfait pour profiter de votre cafĂ© du matin ou d'un barbecue au coucher du soleil sur le barbecue. Les espaces extĂ©rieurs sont complets avec des hamacs et des meubles confortables parfaits pour faire la sieste ou lire ce livre que vous avez envie de finir.

Madreselva est la base idĂ©ale pour lancer un certain nombre d'excursions passionnantes. Vous pouvez choisir parmi une douzaine de plages, le surf, l'observation des baleines et des dauphins, l'Ă©quitation, l'observation des oiseaux, le rafting, le kayak, la tyrolienne, la pĂȘche et les visites guidĂ©es de la nature de jour comme de nuit. PrĂšs de nous, vous pouvez marcher jusqu'Ă  3 magnifiques chutes d'eau Ă  travers la forĂȘt primaire, ainsi que nager et jouer dans la riviĂšre locale. Vous pouvez Ă©galement profiter de nos sentiers pour faire de la randonnĂ©e, observer les oiseaux ou prendre des photos de notre faune diversifiĂ©e.

Notre personnel est prĂȘt Ă  vous chouchouter et Ă  rendre vos vacances inoubliables. Rosibel, notre gouvernante, est disponible de 7h Ă  13h (du lundi au vendredi) pour vous prĂ©parer un dĂ©licieux petit dĂ©jeuner Ă  base d'ingrĂ©dients locaux. Elle effectuera Ă©galement un nettoyage lĂ©ger qui comprend le rangement, la prĂ©paration des lits et une lessive par jour pour votre groupe. Tout cela est inclus dans le prix. Si vous souhaitez des services supplĂ©mentaires, comme une lessive supplĂ©mentaire, des courses, la prĂ©paration d'autres repas ou la garde d'enfants, veuillez nous le faire savoir. Nous sommes heureux de vous aider.

Uvita n'est qu'Ă  quelques minutes en voiture et offre un large Ă©ventail de services, notamment des supermarchĂ©s, des banques, une clinique de santĂ©, un dentiste, une pharmacie, un vĂ©tĂ©rinaire et bien plus encore. Il y a plusieurs bons restaurants dans notre rĂ©gion, et Ojochal, la prochaine ville au sud, a plusieurs excellents restaurants qui reçoivent des critiques Ă©levĂ©es. Si vous ĂȘtes golfeur, le parcours de golf 18 trous de San Buenas est Ă  seulement 25 minutes.

Madreselva est une «maison verte» - nous sommes fiers de compter sur l'Ă©nergie solaire pour l'Ă©lectricitĂ© et l'eau chaude. La maison a Ă©tĂ© construite selon les normes Ă©cologiques les plus Ă©levĂ©es et les meilleures pratiques en architecture tropicale. Le toit est en plastique recyclĂ©, les tuiles de piscine sont en verre recyclĂ© et le bois dans toute la maison provient de bois local, certifiĂ© comme Ă©tant rĂ©coltĂ© de maniĂšre durable. MĂȘme la table de la salle Ă  manger a Ă©tĂ© fabriquĂ©e Ă  partir d'un arbre en bois dur qui est tombĂ© sur la propriĂ©tĂ© il y a des dĂ©cennies.

Nous espérons que vous choisirez Madreselva pour vos prochaines vacances, réunions de famille ou retraite de yoga / méditation. Les brises douces, le cadre privé et la jungle luxuriante vous laisseront détendu, rafraßchi et impatient de votre prochaine visite dans notre beau pays.

Important: Notre route de gravier privée (1 mile), bien qu'en excellent état, est raide et vous aurez donc besoin d'une voiture 4x4 pour accéder à notre propriété.

Amazing Stay

Our stay at Madreselva was magical. Carolina took care of us like we were family. The house had plenty of room for our group of 9. We were concerned about there not being air conditioning since we are from TX but it wasn’t needed at all. The driveway was long and twisty but 100% worth it for the views.

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!

Mountain Jungle Paradise

This home is exactly as described; private, scenic, and serene. You sit at the top of a mountain off the beaten path yet not too far from area attractions which are accessible. The scenery from the home is constantly changing and the views are endless. You can see the whales tale, past Playa Ventanas, down to the Corcovado area, and maybe Panama:) The views toward San Josecito are equally impressive. Around the property you will find well manicured grounds, fruit trees, animal spotting, and plenty of areas for relaxation. The home is well stocked and maintained. Carolina and Rume are top notch and fully available all times of day. They are wonderful people and we enjoyed our time with them. Carolina is excellent; proactively coordinates things in advance of arrival, manages excursions, had good contacts and recommendations, provided beneficial feedback, and was very nice to have around. The excursions Carolina organized were private family outings - she has good contacts and goes out of her way to schedule and organize itineraries. Rume tends more to the property but is present for dinners and we enjoyed him equally as much. Both were great to interact with. All meals Carolina and Rume prepared were great. As others have mentioned, the drive to the house is an adventure and part of the experience. You will need 4x4. Be sure to visit Santa Lucia Falls - excellent excursion and very nice family. Miss the howlers - mornings are magical. Stargazing is amazing too!

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!

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.

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!

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!

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!

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

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.

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.
