Kura Villas
Good to Know
Perched high in Uvita’s mountains, Kura Villas offers a private, romantic escape with expansive Pacific views. This 5-star adult-only boutique retreat features eight ocean-view villas, each designed for two guests aged 16 and above. Guests can enjoy a saltwater infinity pool, fusion dining, and on-site jungle trails, all within an eco-conscious setting. Kura Villas provides a luxurious sanctuary where the hotel itself becomes a central part of the journey.
A private Pacific outlook above Uvita
High in Uvita’s mountains, Kura Villas gives the Pacific a generous place in the stay. Ocean-view villas, a saltwater infinity pool and forest surroundings invite a vacation with time to linger: a swim, a terrace afternoon, a meal with the horizon close by. This boutique retreat is especially appealing when the hotel itself is part of the reason for the journey.
A villa designed for two
Each rainforest villa accommodates only two people, and the minimum age is 16. Those boundaries help define the atmosphere and are important when deciding whether Kura fits your party. Open-floor accommodation pairs a king bed with a spacious private terrace and a double rain shower with an ocean view, bringing the outlook into quieter parts of the day. Bamboo ceilings, Energy Star-rated ceiling fans and low-energy air conditioning connect the open interiors with the hotel’s environmental approach. Free wireless internet, an espresso machine, a private minibar and wine cellar, bathrobes and towels, a personal safe and binoculars provide the comforts for settling in properly.
Choose the largest Luxury Master Suite when you want more space for a honeymoon or time together. Tropical Infinity Villas emphasize extra-wide terraces for lingering over the horizon, while minimalist Junior Suites sit within the forest. With in-room binoculars, look for toucans, parrots, cusingas, hummingbirds and birds of prey; the pleasure is in watching closely, with sightings left to the wildlife.
Give the hotel its own place in the itinerary
The saltwater infinity pool is a natural place to enjoy an unhurried afternoon, with the outdoor lounge offering another space to take in the setting. On-site jungle trails bring movement into those hours, while spa treatments and the Sky Lounge offer other ways to relax. The restaurant serves fusion cuisine, and Diablo’s Bar adds a place for an evening drink.
Kura’s eco-conscious approach, membership in the Cayuga Collection and Virtuoso Preferred partnership are part of its boutique identity. The mountain setting keeps the Pacific in view while creating a private retreat above the coast, particularly appealing for a honeymoon or romantic getaway when the two-person occupancy and minimum age of 16 fit your plans.
Beyond the mountain retreat, Uvita’s beaches, sunset cruises and dolphin- and whale-watching outings bring the Pacific into the trip. Scuba diving and snorkeling around the reefs of the Marino Ballena area offer another perspective on the coast, while rainforest canopy adventures, nature hikes and beach horseback riding let you vary the days. Plan those excursions around time at your villa and pool, with marine-life sightings remaining an opportunity.
Choose Kura for time together, privacy and an ocean outlook you can enjoy throughout the stay. Leave enough room around the outings for the terrace, pool and a leisurely meal. Those moments are central to the experience.
Choosing Kura Villas
- A mountain outlook over Uvita: private Pacific views and rainforest surroundings make the hotel itself a substantial part of the vacation, rather than simply a base for beach trips.
- Two-person villas and minimum age 16: every villa is for two guests, and travelers must be at least 16. Choose another property for a larger shared villa or a party with younger children.
- Private terrace living: open-floor accommodation, king beds and double rain showers with ocean views bring the setting into the room as well as the outdoor space.
- Different villa personalities: the Master Suite is the largest option, Tropical Infinity Villas emphasize wide terraces, and Junior Suites sit in the forest with opportunities for birdwatching.
- Saltwater infinity-pool days: the pool, Sky Lounge, spa and on-site jungle trails give you several reasons to leave time free at the hotel.
- Fusion dining and an evening drink: the restaurant and Diablo’s Bar create an appealing on-site rhythm after a terrace afternoon or a coastal outing.
- Eco-conscious boutique identity: membership in the Cayuga Collection and Virtuoso Preferred partnership accompany the hotel’s sustainability focus.
- Coastal excursions remain separate outings: Uvita beaches, sunset cruises, marine-life tours, diving, snorkeling, canopy activities and horseback riding add adventure beyond the mountain retreat. Wildlife is an opportunity rather than a guaranteed sighting.
