Oxygen Jungle Villas

Top choice in Uvita


Twelve smart mountaintop cabins constructed almost entirely of glass and overlooking the mountains and sea. The transparent and sumptuous digs allow guests to feel like part of the rainforest even from a plush, four-poster king bed. After a waterfall trail, have a spa treatment, then retire to the sundeck’s infinity pool or the alfresco restaurant.

There are abundant Balinese-style statues and a postcard-perfect view of Bahía Ballena. Service is impeccable.
