About this property
Prime Ocean View Land in Uvita, Costa Rica
Located in the highly desirable San Josecito area of Uvita on Costa Rica’s South Pacific Coast, this exceptional 13.92-acre ocean-view property offers a rare opportunity to build a private residence in one of the most sought-after regions of Costa Ballena real estate.
Positioned at a comfortable cool elevation, the property enjoys refreshing mountain breezes, sweeping tree-top views stretching to the Pacific Ocean, and a direct sightline toward the iconic Whale’s Tail formation in Marino Ballena National Park. The setting captures the essence of the Costa Rica lifestyle — peaceful, private, and immersed in nature while remaining just minutes from the vibrant beach town of Uvita.
A Private Setting Surrounded by Nature
Bordering the Borucayan Reserve, the property benefits from a protected natural backdrop that preserves both the privacy and long-term view integrity of the land and clean spring water. The surrounding forest attracts abundant wildlife, including toucans, monkeys, and scarlet macaws, creating a tranquil jungle environment with breathtaking sunsets over the Pacific.
The lot sits within a secure gated enclave of only three properties, offering exclusivity and peace of mind while maintaining a small, private community atmosphere.
Despite its secluded feel, the property is just a short drive from the paved road, providing quick access to the region’s top amenities.
