About this property
Perched above the lush coastline of Playa Hermosa in Costa Rica’s Southern Zone, this two-acre mountain-top estate parcel offers breathtaking panoramic ocean views. Situated just five minutes from the beach and conveniently located between Dominical and Uvita, the property provides a unique blend of privacy, accessibility, and natural beauty, along with long-term investment potential in the rapidly developing Ballena Coastline. The expansive building site boasts sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, directly facing the iconic Whale’s Tail of Marino Ballena National Park. Year-round sunsets, layered mountain backdrops, and refreshing coastal breezes create an exceptional environment for a luxury private residence, tropical retreat, or high-performing vacation rental. The property has been thoughtfully designed with long-term vision and engineering considerations. Extensive infrastructure work has already been completed, including professional terracing, reinforced drainage systems, French drains, concrete water mitigation, vetiver stabilization, bamboo retention systems, and electrical service suitable for a luxury home. A fully approved and functioning legal water well is also present, a rare and valuable asset in Costa Rica that alleviates years of permitting uncertainty and development risk. Mature tropical landscaping enhances the land, featuring ornamental palms and fruit trees such as mango, orange, and star fruit, allowing the estate to develop into a lush private sanctuary over time. A private forest trail leads into the lower jungle area of the property, providing a secluded natural space ideal for a yoga platform, meditation area, outdoor lounge, or wellness retreat amidst the rainforest canopy. Access to the property is remarkably convenient for a mountain estate, located just fifty meters from paved road access with quick connections to the Costanera Highway, beaches, waterfalls, restaurants, shopping, surf breaks, and all modern amenities in the Ballena Coast region. Uvita offers banks, boutiques, restaurants, and internationally accredited bilingual schools while preserving the authentic coastal charm and natural beauty that attract families, retirees, and investors from around the globe. As Playa Hermosa continues to emerge as a premier luxury lifestyle destination in the Southern Zone, architecturally significant homes and high-end estates are increasingly defining the area’s future. This is a rare chance to acquire a fully prepared ocean view estate parcel with extraordinary views, proven infrastructure, immediate build readiness, and one of the most commanding vantage points in Playa Hermosa.
