About this property

Welcome to your own private tropical retreat in the heart of Ojochal—one of Costa Rica’s most sought-after communities. Built in 2020, this beautifully designed 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom modern casita offers the perfect combination of style, privacy, and convenience on approximately ½ acre of flat, fully usable land.

Whether you’re searching for your first home in Costa Rica, a vacation getaway, or an income-producing Airbnb, this property checks every box. The level lot provides ample room to expand with an additional guest casita or main residence while enjoying the existing home immediately.

Surrounded by mature tropical gardens and backing onto a lush jungle hillside, the property offers an incredible connection to nature. Wake each morning to the sounds of howler monkeys and tropical birds while enjoying frequent visits from toucans, scarlet macaws, blue morpho butterflies, parrots, iguanas, and other local wildlife—all from the comfort of your covered outdoor living area.

The thoughtfully designed interior features an open-concept floor plan with stylish tropical-modern finishes, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, propane stove and oven, air conditioning in the bedroom, high-speed internet, and quality furnishings, making this a truly turnkey opportunity.

Outdoor living is where this home truly shines. The spacious covered rancho overlooks a refreshing saltwater pool with an energy-efficient solar-powered filtration system, outdoor shower, beautifully landscaped gardens, and numerous mature fruit trees including mango, avocado, coconut, soursop, starfruit, lime, and lemon. It’s the perfect place to relax in a hammock, entertain friends, practice yoga, or simply enjoy Costa Rica’s year-round outdoor lifestyle.

The fully fenced property provides privacy and security with a custom iron entrance gate and plenty of parking. An additional covered outdoor structure offers exciting potential to be converted into a guest suite, studio, or additional rental space.

Conveniently located just 250 meters from the paved road on a flat gravel road, the home enjoys easy year-round access with no 4WD required—a rare advantage in the area.

Located just minutes from Ojochal’s renowned restaurants, grocery stores, and everyday conveniences, you’ll also be close to some of the Southern Zone’s most beautiful beaches, including Playa Ventanas, Playa Piñuela, Playa Tortuga, and Marino Ballena National Park with its famous Whale’s Tail sandbar. Nearby waterfalls, hiking trails, and endless outdoor adventures complete the lifestyle.
