Contemporary Jungle Villa in Uvita with Private Pool and Expansion Potential

Property overview

This contemporary 2-bedroom villa in Uvita is built on multiple levels that adapt to the natural topography rather than flattening it — each floor shifts the relationship between the interior and the surrounding jungle in a way that feels architectural rather than incidental. Floor-to-ceiling glass and folding doors open the main living space completely to the outdoors, blurring the boundary between inside and the surrounding forest. Light and ventilation move through the home organically.

The kitchen anchors the open-concept social level with natural stone countertops featuring organic veining that ties the interior to the landscape. A floating wooden staircase connects levels while maintaining visual continuity and introducing double-height spaces with shifting jungle perspectives. The two bedrooms function as private retreats with ensuite baths, cross-ventilation, natural materials, and direct green views. Bathrooms incorporate stone, wood, and large windows — immersion without sacrifice.

Outside, a private pool sits surrounded by mature tropical vegetation, creating a resort-style atmosphere for a property that is privately held. The architectural profile — dark sloped roof with low visual impact, natural finishes — is designed to recede into the landscape rather than impose on it.

The 8,655 m² lot includes a build-ready upper parcel that expands the property's long-term potential significantly. As a high-end Airbnb or vacation rental, the villa's design and privacy are precisely what the international rental market seeks. As a personal residence, the 150 m² layout is efficient without feeling compressed. The upper lot allows a future owner to grow the compound on their timeline, making this one of the few properties in Uvita that offers both immediate livability and defined future expansion.
