About this property

Rainforest Retreat with a Forested Setting and Good Rental History in Lagunas

Nestled in the peaceful hills of Lagunas, this private jungle retreat sits on a generous 20,187 m² (nearly 5 acres), offering tranquility, natural beauty, and excellent expansion potential. Enjoy a quiet setting while still being only ~15 minutes to the beaches and the bohemian surf town of Dominical.

Step outside and enjoy the true “fruits of your labor” with mango, avocado, lemon, lime, banana, plantain, pineapple, and papaya growing right on the property. The grounds have been thoughtfully improved with mature fruit trees, living walls, stone pathways, and landscaping throughout, creating a turnkey tropical sanctuary.

Cool evenings are best spent gathered around the stone, wood-burning fire pit near the pool house—an ideal space for entertaining friends and family. With plenty of usable land, the property also offers room for gardens, additional structures, guest units, or future expansion, making it a strong option for a full-time residence, vacation home, or income-producing investment.

Inside, the home features 3 bedrooms plus a 4th room currently used as a DRY room for storage, and 1 bathroom with a unique indoor/outdoor shower complete with a steam generator, bringing the jungle experience into daily living. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the home with natural light and create immersive forest views, while the open layout connects indoor comfort with outdoor living.

Every wood fixture and furniture piece has been custom-crafted, featuring striking live-edge countertops and bespoke furnishings made from reclaimed wood sourced directly from the property, creating a seamless connection between the home and its surrounding landscape.

Outdoor living is paramount here. The private pool area and outdoor rancho provide a perfect place to relax and enjoy the setting. The pool house includes a partial bath, space for additional storage, and a sleeping loft, adding flexibility for guests or rental use.

Designed to embrace the natural setting, the home includes floor-to-ceiling windows that fill the living spaces with natural light and provide immersive jungle views. The open layout creates a seamless connection between indoor comfort and outdoor living.

The property is serviced by a legal ASADA water connection, and includes a carbon water filter system at the kitchen sink, plus fiber optic internet.
