A rare and extraordinary opportunity awaits in Costa Rica’s southern zone. This 343-hectare estate, located just minutes from the coastal town of Dominical and the peaceful village of Barú, is a pristine showcase of the country’s rich natural diversity. Known as “A River Runs Through It,” this expansive property is graced by over kilometers of the Barú River winding through its heart. This stunning feature enhances its ecological value and visual allure.

In addition to the Barú River, the estate includes multiple year-round rivers and freshwater springs, breathtaking waterfalls, internal roadways, and panoramic views that stretch from the Pacific Ocean to the lush, jungle-covered mountains. It is a true sanctuary of privacy, nature, and scale.

The land benefits from well-planned internal infrastructure, providing seamless access throughout the property. As you traverse its network of internal roads, you’ll counter diverse environments—from vibrant jungle trails and tranquil, creek-fed valleys to breezy ridgelines and elevated plateaus. Several prime locations offer commanding ocean views, while others immerse you in the soothing sounds of waterfalls and abundant wildlife, creating an ideal setting for a wellness retreat, luxury eco-lodge, or private conservation estate.

What truly sets this property apart is its rare combination of seclusion and convenience. Despite its private, nature-immersed setting, the estate is just a short drive to Dominical’s shops. Nearby access to schools, medical services, and regional transportation hubs adds a layer of practicality to its vast potential. Whether your vision includes a high-end eco-resort, a reforestation or sustainability initiative, or a holistic sanctuary, the land’s expansive expanses can support ambitious development while preserving its natural essence.

This is one of the region’s last large, legacy properties — a legacy investment opportunity that aligns with environmental, spiritual, residential, or commercial ambitions. Few properties offer this size, water resources, infrastructure, and coastal proximity in such a biologically rich and sought-after region of Costa Rica.
