The Dominical- Uvita area of Costa Rica is one of most beautiful places to visit
Dominical and Uvita are situated along the South Pacific coastline, and are thought to be among the most novel travel destinations in Costa Rica; Dominical for surf entusiasts and Uvita for those who are looking for a stunningly beautiful swimming beach.
In recent year, the area has experienced gradual developmental growth, but it still remains charmingly pristine and untouched in many zones. Its extensive tropical forests rise along the entire coastline, together with dozens of solitary beaches that form unmatched scenery which shows off Costa Rica’s wild nature.
Warm waters and great marine riches fostered the creation of Marino Ballena National Park, home to hundreds of protected species, but principally the humpback whale.
Dominical and Uvita, about fifteen minutes apart, also present ideal conditions for a variety of water sports such as sport fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving and surfing. Lodging and dining options are diverse, with high standards that satisfy the demands of the most discerning travelers; those in search of adventure and local flavor, without forfeiting comfort and luxury.
Spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean in an elegant setting may be found at Oxygen, a hotel inspired by traditional Indonesian design, but with a hint of modernism. Its comfortable villas present a terrace and spacious doorways that invite the fresh ocean breeze into the room.
Perched high in the rainforest, overlooking the Costa Rican South Pacific coast, Kura’s minimalist architecture offers a luxurious jungle experience with breathtaking ocean views.
The 6 open-plan villas blend with the natural beauty of this area, but with contemporary design elements such as floating beds, open showers and 2-person hammocks on spacious private balconies.
Exhibiting spectacular views of Marino Ballena Park, Osa Peninsula and Caño Island, Cristal Ballena Hotel is one of the best lodging options south of Uvita.
Built atop a small hill, surrounded by lush tropical rainforest, the hotel offers spacious and comfortable Mediterranean style suites with balconies and scenic views of the verdant forest and the majestic Pacific Ocean below.
