Just minutes from several beaches!!!

This beautiful lot is located in the peaceful and naturally stunning area of Esterones, just minutes from some of the region’s most spectacular beaches, including Playa Buena Vista and Playa Barrigona. A true surfer’s paradise, the area is also perfect for fishing, long beach walks, and enjoying the relaxed coastal lifestyle Costa Rica is known for.

The property measures 2,781 m²/29,934 sqft and offers a great development potential. Approximately 1,000 m²/10,763 sqft are flat and ready to build, making construction straightforward. The land begins with a level section directly along Route 160, creating an excellent opportunity for possible commercial development in addition to residential use.

This area is just beginning to grow. Currently, you’ll find a small supermarket, a hardware store, and a handful of local restaurants and sodas nearby — enough for daily needs while still maintaining the area’s quiet charm.

From the road, the property gradually rises toward the top of the hill. Along the way, there is a smaller elevated platform ideal for a guest house. Continuing upward, two additional terraces could easily be used for parking areas or even a pool. At the very top, the main building site offers a nice ocean view, providing the perfect setting for the primary residence.

The land is dotted with impressive native trees, including several majestic Guanacaste trees, offering natural shade and helping stabilize the hillside while preserving the authentic character of the property.

A water meter is already installed, and electricity is available directly in front of the property line. Zoning allows for up to 70% construction coverage, with both residential and commercial use permitted.

This is a promising opportunity in a fast-emerging coastal area — ideal for a private home, rental project, or mixed-use development. Don’t miss the chance to explore the potential of this property.

Good to know

Buying in Costa Rica

Can foreigners own property here?

Yes. Foreign nationals have the same ownership rights as Costa Rican citizens and can hold titled property in their own name, a company, or a trust - no local partner required.

What are the typical closing costs?

Closing costs are largely set by law and usually total around 3.5-4% of the price, covering transfer tax, stamps and notary fees, plus legal due-diligence.

How does the buying process work?

Usually 45-90 days: a letter of intent with a deposit in escrow, title due-diligence by your attorney, a purchase agreement, then closing before a notary who registers the transfer.
