About Uvita:
Set in one of the most biologically diverse regions of the world, Playa Uvita is among the most stunning beaches on Costa Rica’s southern Pacific coast. Located about 15 km south of Dominical, Playa Uvita is situated within the Marino Ballena National Park, a marine park that is very popular because of the annual Humpback whale migration. Uvita also hosts 2 annual music festivals, the Best Fest & Envision Festival.
Uvita de Osa is a small village in the Puntarenas province, and is notable for being home to the Cola de Ballena, or the Whale's Tail, one of the most striking and recognizable costal formations in the country. While surfing enthusiasts prefer Dominical, Uvita has become the tourist tour hub of the Costa Ballena region, largely due to it's proximity to National Park. Uvita is considered the commercial center of Costa Ballena, and has grown very much over the years where many expats from Europe and North America have made Uvita their home.
There is a lot to do and see in this amazing part of the world, like whale watching, surfing, diving & snorkeling and ATV tours, horseback riding and kayaking to name only a few. Lots of hotels, B&Bs, rustic lodges and beach cabinas are available for rent, and there's lots of local restaurants, bars and street side cafes that serve up delicious local fare.

This is a well developed single family, ocean view property that offers numerous creative building possibilities, located just minutes from the town center of Uvita Costa Rica complete with a year 'round river song due to the Rio Cortezal that wraps around 2 sides of this property. There is plenty of room for a primary home as well as a guest house, pool and gardens on this property. The infrastructure is all in place and it is ready to build. It is not hard to imagine a floorplan that extends out over the middle building platform from the spacious primary building site. This could be a large, open air patio with the ocean view, and sound from the river. It feels like one is surrounded by the gentle murmur of the river. The middle building site is where you drive up onto the property (where the car is in the photos), so the resulting cantilevered patio from the above primary building site could be used as the ceiling for the garage & storage/work areas. This is just one possible approach. The entry could be re-worked for an entirely different experience.

Gorgeous ocean views, excellent infrastructure, lush jungles and abundant water, thanks to the nearby river. Whales Tail Garland is an excellent value for the nature lover. Located about 12 minutes up the mountain road from Uvita's town center where most of life's necessities and conveniences can be had. The area is known for being attractive to tourists due to the interest (or need?) to connect with nature from all parts of the world. Under $100,000 ocean view properties are diminishing and will soon to be a thing of the past. This is an excellent choice for the price as well as the quality of life that it offers. Uvita is located in the heart of the Costa Ballena which translates to "Whale Coast" and is descriptive of why many people flock to the area - whale watching. But you can add to that the consistently heard statement that "I have finally found Costa Rica" due to the verdant and canopied jungles that cloak the mountains, as well as the ever increasing wildlife that is seen in those jungles. There is plenty to do and so Uvita enjoys repeat visitors, year after year, along with a growing crowd of first-timers. The property slopes down from the access road. The pictures and video give a good lay of the property. At a lower part of the property there is a trail head that provides access to a network of trails that residents of the development can use to get down to the falls of the Rio Cortezal. There are 7 mountain lots in the development and all have access to the trails. All of the lots have sold at least one time. This one is a re-sale.
