Up House | Caribbean Retreat w/ Pool · 4 guests

Summary:

Up House is a cozy Caribbean-style home in Playa Chiquita, perfect for up to 4 guests. The house features 2 bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other with a queen bed, both with AC. Surrounded by tropical nature, you can often spot monkeys, sloths, agoutis, and colorful birds while enjoying the private pool. Located within walking distance to Playa Chiquita, restaurants, and local shops, it’s the perfect place to relax and experience the Caribbean lifestyle.



The Space:

Located in the heart of Playa Chiquita, just 650 meters from the beach, Up House is a tropical retreat designed for travelers seeking comfort, privacy, and an authentic Caribbean experience surrounded by nature.



The main house features two cozy bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other with a queen bed, both equipped with AC and flat-screen TVs with Chromecast. The home also offers one bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and an open living and dining area that connects seamlessly with the tropical garden and private pool, creating a bright and relaxing atmosphere.



Bath and beach towels are provided. The dining area includes a Bluetooth speaker, and the terrace features a hammock — perfect for relaxing while enjoying the sounds of the jungle and the peaceful Caribbean atmosphere.



Up House shares the property with Mini Up!, a second private rental home for two guests. Both houses share the main entrance and parking area, but they are separated by a lush vertical bromeliad garden and have independent entrances, allowing privacy and comfort for all guests.



The property features dedicated symmetrical fiber optic internet, ideal for remote work, as well as a 24/7 security system for added peace of mind during your stay.



Nature is part of the experience. During your stay, it’s common to spot howler monkeys, sloths, toucans, oropendolas, blue morpho butterflies, green macaws, and agoutis visiting the garden daily, making every morning feel magical.



Located within walking distance to Playa Chiquita, boutique restaurants, cafés, and small supermarkets, Up House offers the perfect balance between nature, comfort, and convenience.



Your stay also includes personalized concierge service to assist with transportation, tours, private chef experiences, massages, yoga classes, and unique local experiences to help you discover the best of the South Caribbean.



A space designed to relax, disconnect, and experience the Caribbean in a truly special way.
