Description:
Inspired by the timeless elegance of Mediterranean seaside estates, Casa Cola Ballena boasts unparalleled views of the iconic Whale Tail, unmatched in the area. Nestled into the mountainside, this luxurious villa seamlessly blends with the natural landscape, offering privacy and breathtaking panoramic views of the southern coastline stretching 180 degrees.
Enter through the gated driveway, where the meticulously landscaped grounds welcome you to this exceptional property. Every detail has been designed to enhance both beauty and function. Built to maximize its enviable setting, the home features wraparound terraces, a spacious pool patio, and a teak deck perched amidst the trees—perfect for witnessing toucans soaring in at sunset.
Spanning 1.6 acres, this estate serves as both a private residence and a thriving luxury rental villa, complete with a proven income record and glowing guest reviews. The expansive grounds even offer potential for an additional guest house with its own secluded setting.
The heart of Casa Cola Ballena is its open-concept kitchen and dining area, designed for both functionality and connection. The kitchen features expansive granite countertops, a full suite of appliances perfect for preparing large family meals, and a spacious peninsula where guests can gather, chat, or enjoy casual dining. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area provides the ideal setting for shared meals or lively game nights with loved ones. Adding a cozy touch to this space is a charming reading nook, thoughtfully tucked beneath the grand granite staircase, offering a quiet retreat within the home’s vibrant social hub.
The villa’s main floor features the first of three generously sized bedrooms, with direct access to the pool terrace and a serene outdoor teak and stone shower. The ensuite bathroom boasts a double vanity, a separate shower, and a large soaking tub to relax after a day of exploration. Outside, the soothing sounds of the whale’s tail fountain create a tranquil ambiance.
Up the sweeping granite staircase, two additional suites await, each offering private balconies and ensuite baths. Guests will appreciate the privacy and comfort of having their own luxurious spaces. It's rare to find a home where all three bedrooms are master suites, making this property truly one of a kind.
The home’s top floor offers a unique retreat: a 120-square-foot open-air “yoga nest.” Perched high above the landscape, this breezy space offers the same awe-inspiring views found throughout the property. Whether left open for meditation and relaxation or choose to enclose it with retractable windows, it could easily transform into an office, art studio, or even a playful hideaway for children or teenagers. The property also includes an enclosed, oversized one-car garage—a rare and highly sought-after feature in this region, offering secure storage and convenience, with direct access into the hub of the home.
The iconic Whale’s Tail reef view, visible from nearly every corner of the property, offers a constantly changing spectacle as the tides reveal and conceal the natural formation.
The Area
Located on the sought-after Bejuco Road, Casa Cola Ballena is surrounded by upscale homes and boutique hotels that reflect the area’s exclusivity. Just 10 minutes from Uvita’s town center, the property enjoys proximity to gourmet dining, adventure tours, and essential services. Uvita has become a hub for expats, offering everything from organic farmers’ markets to pharmacies, grocery stores, and medical care. Drive off in the opposite direction, and enjoy hundreds of miles of adventurous back roads through the real rural countryside of Costa Rica. Stop at coffee plantations, small family run “Sodas” (Restaurants) and take in the stunning views of the Talamaca mountain range, and continue on to San Isidro, Costa Rica’s second largest city.
This is more than a home—Casa Cola Ballena is a gateway to a lifestyle of unparalleled beauty, relaxation, and opportunity.
