- Land: 23 hectares (58 acres)
- Bedrooms: 1
- Bathrooms: 1
Get away from it all with your own 58 acre natural playground with a number of areas of flat usable land, a river running through the property, and a mountain side of pristine forest. Perfect property for a self-sustainable eco-lodge that is remote enough to feel secluded, but close enough to amenities just in case you need to go to the neighborhood super market. Located less than 5 minutes from El Silencio; which is a small local town 6 kms from the paved coastal highway and 20-25 minutes from Quepos Regional Airport, Pez Vela Marina, and Manuel Antonio National Park. Plus only 30 minutes from Playa Dominical and you can also be at Playa Matapalo beach in about 15-18 minutes from the property.
The property consists of both sides of the Guaba River with a peaceful and serene setting. The public road runs along the flat usable area of the farm and gives access to a rustic cabin on the property. The cabin was built from hard woods on the property and rocks from the river. This is the ideal side of the farm to create an eco-lodge or private retreat with fruit trees, Tilapia ponds, free-range chicken, and could even have a few dairy cows or goats. About 10-12 acres of usable terrain for numerous cabins if you wanted to operate a B&B or eco-lodge business. Or could be subdivided into river front lots along the public road, all with their own entrance. The Guabo River also runs the length of this usable area and guests or residents will take pleasure in swimming and fishing in the clear invigorating waters. Install solar power or set up hydro-electric to be fully self-sufficient!
The Guabo River divides the usable land from the rain forest mountain on the other side with a clean mountain stream cascading into the river’s edge. This same stream has more waterfalls and cascades and originates on the property. The natural springs with in this forested area could be utilized for clean drinking water and gravity fed to the cabin and rest of the property. There are also some areas that are reforested and have building sites with ocean views. However, access is by hiking trails only and getting a road to these sites would be very difficult to accomplish. The jungle side of the land is best used for hiking trails to a waterfall and ocean view look out spots for future guests to enjoy.
