Zarezervuj si to, pokud You want a sex-appeal-heavy, adults-only jungle hideaway where you can skinny dip in your private plunge pool while watching toucans.

Proč to lidé milují

  • Strict 18+ policy ensures total tranquility (no splashing kids)
  • The 'Whale's Tail' ocean view is one of the best in Costa Rica

Rychlý přehled: A masterclass in jungle luxury that forces you to rent a 4x4 but rewards you with the kind of privacy usually reserved for celebrities.

Recenzoval @thetraveldoc1: I stayed at Golden Pineapple Villas and was blown away. My room had glass walls that slid open completely, merging the bedroom with the terrace. Spending hours in my private plunge pool watching the whales in the distance was the highlight of the trip.

The hype

Reviewers are obsessed with the private pools and the staff (Jessie and Leonel get shoutouts), calling it a 'slice of heaven' that ruins you for other hotels.

Reality check

The drive up is terrifying for the uninitiated, and a few guests wished the mattresses were softer.

  • You are on a honeymoon or romantic escape
  • You value privacy above all else
  • You love nature but hate 'roughing it'

Pokoje k vyhnutí

Časté otázky a skryté tipy

Vše, co opravdu chcete vědět, než si zarezervujete.

Do I really need a 4x4?

Yes. Do not try this in a sedan. You will get stuck and the tow truck will cost a fortune.

Is there a spa?

There isn't a large spa facility, but they offer in-room massage services and treatments.

How far is the beach?

You can see it, but it's a 15-minute drive down the mountain to actually touch the sand.

Is the internet good enough for work?

Yes, Starlink/fiber is common in Uvita now, and reviews mention reliable WiFi even in the villas.

Can I walk to dinner?

No. You are isolated. You eat at The Crown (on-site) or drive down into town.

Are there bugs in the room?

It's the jungle. You will see geckos and insects outside. Keep your glass doors closed at dusk to keep them out.

Insider tipy

  • ✨

    Ask for a 'Pineapple Mimosa' upon arrival if they don't offer one immediately.

  • ✨

    The 'Whale's Tail' beach is best visited at low tide—check the tide charts before driving down.

  • ✨

    Order the Costa Rican breakfast; it's consistently rated better than the continental options.

5 věcí, které byste měli vědět, než se vydáte

  • 💡The outdoor bathtubs are amazing but take a while to fill—start the water early.

  • 💡You might get a visit from a coati (looks like a raccoon/monkey mix) on your deck.

  • 💡The driveway is so steep it feels like a rollercoaster launch.

  • 💡There are only 7 villas, so the staff knows exactly who you are and what you like.

  • 💡The 'gym' is minimal—don't expect a full Equinox setup.
