A strategic retreat in a changing world

A place for exceptional quality of life – with the independence, resilience and security that truly matter in the long run.

This rare private finca on the Nicoya Peninsula in the Quebrada Honda area uniquely combines space, comfort and strategic future security.

Situated at an altitude of only 63 meters above sea level, the property enjoys a safe, low-lying location with no risk of flooding or landslides. At the same time, it benefits from a warm, pleasant tropical climate that is significantly more temperate than on the coast and free from the cooler temperatures of higher mountain regions.

The property

The finca comprises 12 hectares of private land with no direct neighbors and offers absolute peace and quiet amidst nature.

• Approximately 8 hectares of natural forest with high biodiversity
• Rich wildlife including birds, small mammals and numerous native species
• Approximately 4 hectares of well-maintained pasture and green areas
• Suitable for horses, cattle, goats or other farm animals

The property offers views of the Gulf of Nicoya and Chira Island. At night, the lack of light pollution provides a spectacular starry sky with a clearly visible Milky Way.

Buildings & Infrastructure

The semicircular arrangement of the buildings creates a sheltered courtyard and includes:

• Two main residential units
• An additional apartment
• Four guest rooms, each with its own bathroom
• Office space
• workshops
• Storage rooms

All buildings were constructed to a high standard and are in excellent condition.

Water and energy supply

The water supply is ensured by year-round available private water sources, several storage tanks and efficient rainwater management.

An existing solar infrastructure and extensive expansion possibilities enable a high degree of energy independence.

Self-sufficiency & Agriculture

The property includes:

• An established aquaponics system
• A large pool (currently used as a tilapia tank)
• Extensive vegetable and food gardens

This means the finca offers real opportunities for self-sufficiency without having to forgo comfort.

Ideal for full-time or part-time use

The property is suitable both as a permanent residence and as a second home.

For owners who do not wish to be permanently on-site, a proven caretaker and management solution, including on-site accommodation, is already available. This ensures that remote management remains straightforward and stress-free.

The environment

The neighborhood consists of small rural properties and quiet local families – farmers, agricultural workers, and commuters from the nearby city of Nicoya.

It is a stable, peaceful region that is not heavily influenced by tourism.

• No resorts
• No nightlife
• No mass tourism
• No rush

Instead, you can expect an authentic rural community.

Nature & Views

From the courtyard and the main terraces, the view sweeps across the surrounding jungle to the Gulf of Nicoya and Chira Island.

In the morning, the calls of howler monkeys accompany the start of the day. In the evening, flocks of small green parrots ("Pericos") often fly over the property.

The finca conveys a constant feeling of connection with nature, without implying isolation or loss of comfort.

Space, tranquility, and biodiversity shape everyday life more than traffic or infrastructure.

Strategic location

Despite its privacy, the finca is located near numerous natural attractions in Costa Rica:

• Pacific beaches: 60–90 minutes
• Barra Honda National Park with cave systems and viewpoints
• Palo Verde National Park and the Río Tempisque with its significant wetlands
• Volcanic regions such as Rincón de la Vieja and Tenorio: 2–3 hours
• Monteverde and its famous cloud forest: approx. 2 hours

The Nicoya Blue Zone

The Nicoya Peninsula is officially one of the five globally recognized „Blue Zones“ – regions known for exceptional longevity, health and quality of life.

This makes the property particularly attractive for people who not only seek privacy and independence, but also value long-term well-being, living close to nature and healthy aging.

This is not a typical beach house.

It is a strategic second location for people who value independence more than dependence – a long-term retreat that combines security, health and quality of life.

Long-term investment & forestry potential

Besides residential use, the finca offers significant long-term investment potential.

Various rare and valuable hardwoods grow on the property, including Cocobolo (rosewood) and other native hardwood species.

This opens up the possibility of a specialized forestry project focusing on high-quality hardwoods instead of conventional teak monocultures.

One such approach:

• Promotes biodiversity
• Maintains ecological resilience
• Creates a sustainable tangible asset with long-term value appreciation potential.

The finca is ideally suited for a regenerative forestry model that combines nature conservation and strategic investment.
