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.

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!

Our group of 10 enjoyed the views from this beautiful home! There was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy this slice of paradise. We enjoyed watching the sunrise and animal spotting on the property. The hammocks were occupied whenever we were home. The road up was not bad if you have 4- wheel drive and a confident driver.
Prior to arrival Claudia sent a comprehensive Welcome letter and FAQs that provided lots of information on the house and things to do in the area. It was extremely helpful in planning our trip. Carolina was a master at coordinating our complex transportation needs, as we had people coming and departing from different areas on different days. It was great taking a shuttle to the house and then having our rental car delivered.
We did the Santa Lucia waterfall hike. The waterfalls were incredible, and we had them all to ourselves! The hike itself can be rough in parts, as you walk across some slippery wet rocks and uneven, muddy trails. My mom couldn’t make the hike, so Carolina arranged a massage for her at the house while we were gone, she loved it! The boat trip to Cano Island was a highlight of our trip as the snorkeling was spectacular. We got lucky and had great visibility even during the rainy season. We also spotted a mama humpback whale and her baby along the way!

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…🙏

This was one of our favorite trips yet - beautiful location, kind people, welcoming & stunning home.
After researching hundreds of homes & having an age spread of 3.5 to 70+, we needed to find a place that would be accommodating for the entire family. We settled on Madreselva after reading so many positive reviews & speaking with people who highly recommended the Uvita area.
The owner provided useful information about the home & the area. Carolina (house manager) was VERY helpful with the planning/booking of transportation & activities. We added on 2 dinners during our stay - the Arroz Con Pollo was SO good! The provided breakfast was a bonus, too. The home was always clean & straightened & they even provided fresh beach towels each day. Carolina made sure we could reach her anytime.
Large kitchen is very well stocked. Bedrooms & bedding were quite comfortable (2 main bedrooms offer breathtaking views). Temps on the mountain were VERY comfortable! Our twin nieces spent most of their time in the pool. You do need TRUE 4-wheel drive - driveway is long & steep, but no scary drop-offs & you get used to it quickly. There are bugs - but nothing like I was expecting! A healthy coverage of sunscreen & Repel kept us bite free the entire trip.
We are grateful to Claudia for making Madreselva available for others to utilize & appreciate. We made many special memories, & several dreams came true. Thank you to Carolina & her husband - we truly look forward to seeing you again soon!

This property is gorgeous!!! You truly feel like you're up on the mountain in nature, away from the city. It was so very peaceful and fun looking down at the "whales tale" below. We stayed here with our 4 boys (ages 11,9,8, and 5) and our favorite part of the home was the patio with its view.
Carolina was such an amazing host - she was so helpful booking things beforehand for us and made delicious food for our family. I was not expecting some of the little details and effort that she put into making our stay special - our boys loved the towel animals she made and had on the beds at arrival, and she had vases of beautiful tropical flowers in multiple rooms. It was a treat to walk into the house after a day of hiking to waterfalls and find a load of clean clothes neatly folded on the table. My husband unfortunately had a little accident and needed to get to the clinic and was unable to drive and Carolina's husband didn't think twice about taking us. The way they treated us made us feel like family friends, which was amazing and above and beyond what I expected from a VRBO rental.
The only thing I would note about the house for family's with younger children - all the bedrooms are separate and open onto a covered outdoor breezeway, which I didn't realize beforehand.
The area is beautiful. The home is beautiful and a true gem! Thank you Claudia and Carolina!!

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!

All we can say is WOW!!!! Not only is the house and view unsurpassed, but wonderful Carolina & Rume we’re the best! Their food is fabulous, and they took care of us like family! In addition, Claudia was so wonderful and welcoming we can’t say enough about them all! This property is at the top of an incredible mountainous dirt road that is absolutely worth the drive! You end up in the jungle with the toucans and howlers monkeys! We travel a lot, and this was our favorite trip ever! Thank you again, Carolina and Rume! We will see you again soon! ❤️🙏🏼

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!
