My husband and I spent five wonderful days/nights at Del Congo for our honeymoon. We are already pre-planning a future return trip and hope to bring the whole family! This place is serene and idyllic. We loved the town of Uvita, and everyone we met was so lovely.
A few tips. We rented a 4WD SUV (Geely Azkarra). Don't skimp on a rental. We arrived after dark in the rain, so we were glad to have this vehicle on our journey up the mountain. It also had a hill assist feature which was a blessing for our brakes. But don't let the tales of the road scare you away from this property. It is totally doable and honestly a fun part of the adventure.
I also recommend having Alicia prepare at least one meal for your party! She's a great resource and a fantastic cook!
If you want to plan an excursion, let Del handle that for you. He booked us a snorkeling trip to Cano Island and the company/guides were top notch!
Aside from that, I am convinced you will not find a better vantage point for viewing the whale's tale! There are amazing restaurants and bars just down the road (Uvita Beer Garden, Los Laureles, Whale's Tale Brewery), and any essentials can be found a short drive in town.
Whether you're a couple or a whole group, you will not regret staying at this gorgeous home! If you're on the fence, jump down and book this place!! Del is a fantastic host and readily available to answer any questions you may have! Enjoy your trip, Pura Vida!
