Set in the desirable mountain community of San Salvador de Barú, this exceptional 22-acre property offers some of the most inspiring west-facing views in all of Pérez Zeledón. From its elevated perch at approximately 800 meters above sea level, the land opens to sweeping panoramas of the Pacific coastline, layered mountain ridges, and the kind of dramatic sunsets that light up the entire horizon each evening. Whether you envision a private residence, a boutique retreat, or a sustainable homestead, this location provides the perfect blend of beauty, climate, and practicality.

One of the defining features of this parcel is its very large, flat building area—an increasingly rare asset in the coastal mountains of southern Costa Rica. This natural building pad offers more than enough room for a main home, guest house, gardens, a pool, or future expansion, all while maintaining unobstructed ocean and sunset views. The gentle contours of the surrounding land make development straightforward, setting the stage for a project that can grow over time according to your vision.

The mid-elevation climate is ideal: comfortably warm during the day, cool in the evenings, and refreshed by consistent breezes. The property is already established with a diverse collection of fruiting trees, taking advantage of the region’s fertile soil and reliable rainfall. This natural abundance makes the land especially appealing for those interested in permaculture, hobby farming, or simply enjoying a sustainable lifestyle in tune with the environment.

Water is one of the property’s strongest assets. A legally concessioned spring located on the land provides a clean, reliable, and sustainable water source—an increasingly valuable feature in the region. Electricity is available at the entrance road, allowing for easy connection while keeping the heart of the property peaceful and private.

Access is both convenient and scenic. Downtown San Isidro, with its full range of supermarkets, medical services, banks, and commerce, is just 25 minutes away. The beach town of Dominical, known for its surf, restaurants, markets, and laid-back atmosphere, is only about 35 minutes down the road. From there, additional beaches along the Costa Ballena are an easy onward drive. The property is also close to spectacular natural attractions, including the Nauyaca Waterfalls and the towering Diamante Waterfall.

San Salvador de Barú has become a focal point for sustainability, wellness, and back-to-nature living. The area is home to organic farms, eco-homesteads, yoga and meditation centers, and a vibrant community of like-minded residents. Each week, the nearby Tinamastes Organic Market brings together local growers, artisans, and neighbors in a lively gathering centered on healthy, intentional living.

For those seeking incredible views, usable land, abundant natural resources, and a supportive community, this 20-acre San Salvador de Barú property is an exceptional opportunity. It offers the rare combination of natural beauty, practicality, and the chance to build a life connected to the land yet close to everything you need.
