Details
Exceptional 105.22-hectare (approximately 260-acre) property located in La Frontera, Sierpe, Osa, Puntarenas, Costa Rica. This large landholding offers a rare combination of primary tropical forest, permanent natural water sources, streams, waterfalls, open areas and spectacular panoramic views toward the Pacific Ocean.
The property is located outside National Parks and Forest Reserves, while being strategically positioned within the Osa region, one of Costa Rica's most biodiverse and environmentally significant areas.
A major highlight is the property's approximately 180-degree panoramic view, combining rainforest, the Sierpe River and mangrove ecosystem, coastal landscapes and the Pacific Ocean. Depending on weather and visibility, views extend toward areas including Isla de Violines, Playa Dominical, Golfo Dulce, Punta Uvita, Marino Ballena and the mouths of the Térraba and Coronado rivers.
The property contains areas of primary tropical rainforest with abundant vegetation and wildlife, together with several permanent natural water sources. Streams and waterfalls are found throughout the property, creating an exceptional natural environment and adding significant appeal for conservation, private use or nature-based projects.
The property also includes areas currently occupied by pasture and natural vegetation, offering potential for carefully planned infrastructure and development, subject to applicable zoning, environmental regulations, feasibility studies and government approvals. Potential uses could include eco-tourism, boutique hospitality, wellness retreats, private estates, sustainable tourism, conservation projects, agroforestry or other low-impact development concepts.
Access
The property offers multiple access alternatives.
By road: From San José, travel south toward the Osa region and continue through the La Chacarita/Alto San Juan area toward Miramar de Sierpe, Alto El Faro and Bahía Drake. The property is approximately 300 meters from the access route. A second route is available from Sierpe, following approximately 15 kilometers of gravel road toward the Alto El Faro/Bahía Drake junction, with the property approximately 300 meters from the junction.
By river: The property benefits from proximity to the Sierpe River, providing access by small boats with outboard motors toward Sierpe and other destinations in the regional river system, with routes toward Bahía Drake and Isla del Caño, subject to local conditions.
By air: The property has three existing terraces that provide potential for helicopter access. Domestic air connections are available through locations including Palmar Sur, Puerto Jiménez, Golfito and Bahía Drake.
Services
Cellular telephone service is available. The nearest community, Bajo San Juan, is approximately 1.5 kilometers away and provides basic services including a health post, church, local grocery store, elementary school, community development association and access to the electrical grid.
Location and Natural Attractions
The property is surrounded by some of Costa Rica's most important natural destinations, including Sierpe Mangroves, Bahía Drake, Corcovado National Park, Isla del Caño, Golfo Dulce, Piedras Blancas National Park, Marino Ballena National Park, Uvita and the Southern Pacific beaches.
With approximately 260 acres of land, ocean views, rainforest, permanent water sources, waterfalls and multiple access options, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial property in one of Costa Rica's most remarkable natural regions.
The property offers excellent potential for a private estate, conservation project, nature-based tourism venture or carefully planned sustainable development, subject to all applicable Costa Rican regulations and permits.
