My husband and I had read about Uvita (and Dominical) and wanted to visit this area this trip. We did the six hour drive down from La Fortuna and it was very easy. The drive down the coast was beautiful. Finding Tikivillas was very easy using GPS most of the way and then the directions from the Tikivillas website were... More

We were looking for a private, short getaway at the beach when we reserved at TikiVillas in January. Judging by all the excellent reviews they received here on Trip Advisor, we had high expectations. On arrival we found access from the Costanera road to be quite easy and we had absolutely no problem finding the entrance. Even though a 4x4... More

Me and my boyfriend had the best time here at TikiVillas during our Costa Rica trip! The rooms are jaw dropping, very modern style, everything is clean and the view is amazing. The rooms are very spacious and the balcony is huge. If you leave the doors open, what we did, you are literally in the jungle, hearing all the... More

My wife and I were here for a week at the end of January 2012 (80's-90's daily). We love this area and recommend TikiVillas as one of the best places to stay while in Uvita. Need 4x4 to stay here. Thomas and Cindy are delightful hosts, the tranquil atomsphere they create in the main house reminds you that you're on... More

The short version: This place would be a steal at twice the price. You will not regret staying here, my wife and I didn't. The long: From the great private lodges, to waking up to nature's alarm clocks (howler monkeys), to the incredible FREE breakfast, the great drinks, the beautiful pool, and two owners who understand hospitality. The location is... More

We had a reservation for 3 days at TikiVillas, but we liked it there so much that we stayed for five. The room's fold away walls open up on two sides to the rainforest with a view of the ocean. Normally when traveling, I don't spend much time in my room because I want to go see the place I've... More

My husband and I stayed in Villa 5 for nearly a week in December. The location was super for touring and dining options from Dominical to Ojochal. We found the owners and staff to be quite agreeable and our comfortable villa kept spotless.

My wife and I stayed at TikiVillas in December 2011. The property is tucked into the jungle in a beautiful setting. It's a beautiful region in Costa Rica. The property includes five individual bungalows and a common "lodge." The lodge includes a common seating area, small bar and infinity pool. The pool is definitely a highlight of the property; you...
