About this property
Rare 86-Acre Ocean View Estate Bordering Hacienda Barú – A Unique Opportunity for Conservation and Development
Welcome to one of the last remaining large land parcels near Dominical — a breathtaking 86-acre estate that strikes the perfect balance between development potential and ecological stewardship. Nestled adjacent to the protected lands of the renowned Hacienda Barú Wildlife Refuge, this extraordinary property offers a rare chance to own a piece of Costa Rica’s pristine natural beauty while unlocking a world of possibility.
A Landscape of Diversity and Opportunity
Spanning rolling hills, flat expanses, and lush jungle, the property encompasses a rich mosaic of ecosystems, including approximately 19 hectares of primary forest (46 acres) and diverse secondary growth, crisscrossed by internal roads and natural trails. The terrain is dotted with eight ocean-view building sites, each offering sweeping vistas of the Pacific, ideal for luxury residences or eco-conscious villas.
Strategic Frontage and Commercial Potential
Boasting over 400 meters of public road frontage, the estate offers easy access to water and electricity, making it highly viable for both residential and commercial development. The cleared, flat areas near the highway are perfect for higher-density projects and already include two dedicated commercial building sites — envision boutique shops, wellness centers, or a charming jungle hotel with ocean access just minutes away.
A Visionary Development Awaits
The property lies within the Paso de la Danta biological corridor, one of the most biologically important regions in Central America. With an environmental impact study required for future development, this land is primed for thoughtful development that respects and preserves its extraordinary surroundings.
A Tico-style home is already situated on the property, offering a base of operations for future plans. Two natural springs enhance the land’s value, adding to the sustainability and allure of the estate.
An existing development concession application is underway for the creation of a small eco-hotel, private homes, swimming pools, and a restaurant, providing a head start for visionary investors seeking a blend of income, impact, and personal enjoyment.
