About this property
This 72-acre farm in Costa Rica offers a unique opportunity to own a developed ecotourism property centered around a Waterfall Sanctuary. Located in the farming community of La Gloria, Puriscal, it is approximately 37 miles south of San José and about 12 miles from the Central Pacific coast, making it a popular area for tourism near Jaco/Los Suenos and Quepos/Manual Antonio. The property features lush mountainous terrain, rainforest corridors, mirador overlooks, two river systems, swimming holes, and five large natural waterfalls that cascade through the land. Access to the property is excellent, situated just off a main road that connects the beach and the capital city of San José, which is currently being paved. A short secondary gravel road leads to the site, and during the wet season, a 4X4 vehicle may be needed for access within the property. The property includes a network of waterfalls that provide natural swimming pools and the potential for spa and wellness features. There are multiple hiking loop options through the forested land, suitable for guided walks or meditation paths. Existing infrastructure includes visitor facilities, restroom/shower/changing areas, parking, paths, entry gates, and a kitchen/dining gazebo that is currently operational. Caretakers live onsite to manage security, maintenance, guest reception, tour guiding, and meal preparation. On-site museum exhibits focus on water science, sustainability, and cultural water traditions, enhancing the educational aspect of the property. Elevated ridgelines offer scenic views over valleys toward the coast, providing a solitary ambiance and wildlife corridors. This property is well-suited for various uses, including ecotourism and wellness retreats, education and research centers, boutique resorts or glamping, event venues, and conservation efforts. It is a turnkey operation, providing a working museum and sanctuary with established visitor flow, systems, signage, and brand recognition.
