About this property

Welcome to Sueños de Mariposa, a stunning boutique retreat nestled in the tranquil hills of Lagunas. Perched above the lush valleys and dramatic mountain landscapes, this 1-hectare property offers a true escape into nature—where mist rises from the valley at dawn, birds glide at eye level, and rainbows stretch across the horizon. Every sunrise greets you with the vibrant sounds of the jungle, creating a daily symphony that redefines paradise.

Just 20 minutes from the vibrant beach town of Dominical, Sueños Mariposa enjoys the best of both worlds—seclusion and serenity, with easy access to world-class surfing, waterfalls, restaurants, mangrove tours, and farmers markets. At this elevation, enjoy cooler temperatures year-round, eliminating the need for air conditioning and inviting you to live in harmony with the natural surroundings.

Property Features:
• At the front ridge of the property sits the charming owner’s one-bedroom home, featuring:
• A spacious kitchen
• A cozy living area
• An expansive deck, perfect for morning meditation or sunset cocktails
• A master suite with panoramic views and a luxurious ensuite bathroom with double vanity
• Ample storage space throughout
Guests will be equally impressed by the two private villas, each designed for comfort and privacy:

• Villa Two: A versatile two-bedroom layout that can serve as a complete living unit or be adapted to expand shared space for larger groups. Includes a full walk-in storage area—perfect for long-term stays.•
Each villa is tastefully decorated and offered fully furnished, making it easy to continue the successful turnkey rental business.
• Outdoor Living: At the heart of the property is a welcoming central gazebo, complete with full cooking facilities and spacious seating areas—ideal for entertaining, family dinners, or lively game nights. Nearby, a large fire pit sets the scene for evening storytelling under the stars, drink in hand.
• Wellness & Recreation: A dedicated workout space (equipment not included) allows guests or owners to stay active while enjoying mountain and jungle views.
• Infinity Pool: The breathtaking infinity-edge pool overlooks the expansive valley and surrounding mountains—a serene spot where the jungle seems to flow right into the water.
• Lush Grounds: Wander through meticulously maintained paths lined with thriving flora, producing fruit trees, and majestic bamboo. The vibrant landscaping is a haven for birds, butterflies, and other wildlife—enhancing the magical atmosphere of the estate.

Whether you envision a private family compound, a thriving boutique rental business, or your personal sanctuary with room for guests, Sueños Mariposa is a rare and remarkable opportunity.
