Dear Sheri,
Your home is absolutely wonderful, It is so much
bigger, nicer & better than the two previous ones
we stayed in!.
The upstairs veranda is spectacular with its ocean
views and breeze.
Everyday we would sit and listen for the monkeys
who always ended up in the big tree to the right.
Oh the Toucans my favorite bird! I have a photo of
six of them all sitting in your tree...
Cocktails in your pool at sunset were great. I even
had the pleasure of swimming with a sloth who was
sleeping on your pool steps.
Anyone wanting to experience the jungle and
unspoiled beauty of Costa Rica I highly recommend
this property.
We will be back again next year.

We really enjoyed our stay in your house. The location, the sounds of the jungle, the early morning tea while watching the toucans fly from tree to tree and the sunset in front of the pool, all were just delighful moments that we'll long remember. We didn't see the howling monkeys, but we did hear them no doubt!
This was a very special experience for us as we never had holidays like this.
We don't have a car in Paris and driving a 4WD up the hill was a challenge, but we especially loved driving through the river bed on our way down.
We were only three in a huge house and we wish we were more since the house is so confortable!
Que les francophones n'hésitent pas! C'est un endroit merveilleux, perdu dans la jungle et pourtant si confortable qu'on se prend à paresser la journée entière entre la piscine et le jardin... |

We were pleasantly surprised with how beautiful your house and property are. We rode our motorcycle up the 2 mile driveway and made it ok. What a gorgeous mountain you live on. The are is so nice and natural. We hope you welcome us back soon.
All the best...

This is an absolutely beautiful and comfortable home with a phenomenal view of the beach. Secluded and surrounded by lush foliage, you feel embraced by the jungle . . . beautiful birds of all kinds, the occasional monkey sighting . . . all while lounging in the pool.
I highly recommend this house and the experience of Uvita, a beautiful and very welcoming beach community. |

| I am a very seasoned traveler and would rate this villa in my top three! The accommodations were superb and did not lack for any creature comforts!! The early morning and evening sights and sounds around the property were more than I ever anticipated. The black sand beach was private and one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever been on. There were plenty of local restaurants (two of them with five-star chefs) and any tourist attractions safely within driving distance. For the more adventurous types you can drive to San Isidro where the views were spectacular or take a trip to Panama and visit local beaches along the way. I would highly recommend this to anyone wishing to see Costa Rica and will definately be back again myself! One of the most affordable vacations I have taken to date. |

Hello Margaret, I did not get the pleasure of meeting you, but I heard you are a pleasure to have as a guest. We are glad you got the chance to experience the reason we own a home here. It is true paradise in the rainforest, very enchanting. We hope you come again. Pura Vida, Sheri Robbins

| This is one of the great places to stay anywhere: gorgeous surroundings where you can wake up to see howler monkeys, toucans and stunningly beautiful blue morpheous butterflies literally at your doorstep; privacy that lets you - and I confess - enjoy a risque skinny dip in the pool; incredible ocean views; and proximity to excellent restaurants and leisure activities. Frank and Sherry's house is a paradise for both couch potatoes like me, and those active naturalists or adventure seekers who can't sit still. I make it a point to stay there whenever I'm in the area, and can count on the house being immaculately kept and inviting. Thanks, guys! |

Dear Sheri,
Your gorgeous villa is away from high tourist areas and set in an unspoiled part of Costa Rica. It is spacious, well appointed and has everything we could have needed for our stay. In fact, the photos do not render justice to your property. For us, it outshined by far the other Costa Rican villas we have rented before. We want to thank you for sharing such a great place.
We were impressed by many other things. The ocean, jungle and mountain views from the pool deck or from the master bedroom deck are unbelievable. We kept our wildlife guide and binoculars out constantly and enjoyed bird watching, as well as viewing howler monkeys play nearby. We were amazed how much wildlife there is around the villa.
The early morning walks for watching birds and the jungle coming alive followed by a dip in your very private and topnotch pool were one other big part of it. Overall, your property makes a great spot just for swimming, sunbathing and gazing. It's simply Pura Vida.
The local French bakery in Ojochal made the best bread we ever had in Costa Rica. The local wine and cheese shop has unexpected gourmet food items and very good wine choices. It did contribute pretty well - along with the firefly shows - to our magnificent evenings. The mangrove boat tour on Terraba River delta with Jorge was undoubtedly worth seeing.
Add to these beauties the kindness of everyone we met. Ann and Ted thoughtfulness and friendliness (and the useful information and knowledge of the area) help create one of our most memorable vacations in Costa Rica. Please thank Ann, Johan and Kumari for all they did.
Let it suffice to say that we would definitively stay at your villa again and strongly advise anyone that is thinking of coming to this beautiful part of Costa Rica to seriously consider your villa as their base.
Thank you again,
Yves, Canada
P.S. We have traveled all over the word and we have been to Costa Rica several times.
