Cloistered in the coastal mountain range above the growing beach town of Uvita, this rare gem of a property awaits.

The property is bordered by a large river with a stunning waterfall, providing a peaceful natural soundtrack of flowing water.
Long Description
Located in the coastal mountain range above Uvita, this exceptional 101.31-acre farm offering privacy, and natural features that are increasingly rare in Costa Rica’s South Pacific Zone. Large parcels of this size are becoming difficult to find!
Set at approximately 1,700 feet above sea level, the property enjoys cooler temperatures and consistent mountain breezes throughout the year. Scenic mountain roads provide convenient access both to the beaches and services of Uvita just 5.5 Km away.
A strong, year-round river borders the property, accompanied by a striking 40 foot waterfall that creates beautiful swimming holes with crystal clear water. Enjoy swimming with family and friends with no one around for miles!
Approximately 50 acres of the property are enrolled in Costa Rica’s FONAFIFO forest conservation program, generating carbon credits and an annual conservation payment from the government that covers your property taxes.
The remaining ~51.3 acres are available for development, agriculture, or a combination of both. Mature fruit trees, forested areas, and abundant water attract a wide variety of wildlife, highlighting the region’s exceptional biodiversity.
Public Road & River Frontage No Building Restrictions
With extensive public road frontage, the property offers full flexibility for development, without restrictive building covenants. Multiple natural building sites can be easily prepared and enjoy sweeping mountain views and ocean vistas over Marino Ballena National Park, including clear views of the iconic Whale Tail formation.
This farm is well suited for a boutique hotel, a low-density residential or conservation-focused community, or a strategic subdivision designed to maximize return on investment. It also lends itself perfectly to self-sustainable living, permaculture, or an eco-oriented project that takes advantage of the land’s water resources and conservation status. The South Pacific Zone continues to gain international attention as a premier destination for nature-based tourism and long-term living.
