These intimate and tropical cabinas are located in Bahia Ballena a 5 minute walk to one of the most pristine beaches in Costa Rica (Playa Chaman) and the Marino Ballena National Park with the famous Whale’s Tail formation. Also walking distance for guests to restaurants and shops nearby. Plus a short few minute drive to all the amenities of Uvita.

The pool is perfect for guests to cool off after a day at the beach or out on adventure tours. There is a covered rancho next to the pool with outdoor kitchen and BBQ area for all guests to enjoy.

In the rear of the property is the owner’s home; which is split into two sides connected by a breeze way. One side has a full kitchen and 2 bedrooms (1 being used as an office with A/C) and 1 full bathroom.

One side of the home could be converted into a 5th rental unit if you desired to increase the revenue. Or rent the home on Airbnb if you lived off site or do not plan on moving here full time. Could also rent the entire property to yoga retreats or other tourism groups looking for plenty of space.

“A tropical oasis in the middle of Uvita….
This little oasis is absolutely beautiful and in a lovely part of Uvita. It is heaven from the second you come through the front gate. The cabinas are absolutely beautiful with the most gorgeous bathrooms very tastefully decorated. The bed was so comfy, I wish I could bring it home with me! There’s a fully stocked kitchen if you wish to cook (which we didn’t!!) Scott, the owner, was extremely helpful and friendly and around if we needed anything. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone . I loved it!!”

“This place really hit the spot. First, location: In the thick of the Bahia section of Uvita, minutes walking from the stunning national park and Whale Tail. And convenient by car to every awesome thing in the area. Second, amenity: great bed, great shower, great AC, cooking facilities that are well stocked and supported, even floating drink holders. Third hospitality. The host was first rate with great local tips…. Do your vacation a favor and book here!”

“We loved our stay!! The hosts are so nice and know lots about the area. The property is beautiful and includes a pool and really cool area outside for communal cooking so that you can hang out in comfy chairs in the shade while eating, or sit by the pool. The rooms are clean and well stocked with cutlery, plates, glasses, etc, and have a mini fridge, microwave, kettle, and a chorreador. The nearby beach Playa Uvita isn’t crowded at all and stretches on for miles. You can walk all the way down to the whale tail if you want. While we stayed at Cabinas D’Val, we went on a great snorkeling trip to Cano Island (through Bahia Adventures). Definitely a great place to stay if you want proximity to this tour, or are interested in a few relaxing beach days. Thanks:)”

“Feeling of intimacy, only a few cabinas in a nice garden where you can observe birds and iguanas in the surrounding trees. Good size pool, air conditioned rooms, plenty of filtered water available. On the patio you can cook, have a few drinks, read, listen to some music… there is also documentation about the regions and animals/plants. We could walk to the beach (sunsets!!) and to a few good restaurants. We really enjoyed spending a week there. Hosts are super nice and helpful.”
