Description

Positioned along the serene banks of the Barú River, just minutes from the coastal village of Dominical, this distinctive property is a rare find that merges natural charm, functionality, and built-in revenue potential. Offering paved road access—a true rarity in the region—it combines convenience with the immersive experience of riverside living in the heart of Costa Rica’s Southern Zone.
The main residence is open and inviting, designed to maximize airflow, natural light, and connection with the surrounding environment. It offers generous indoor-outdoor flow and is well suited for full-time living, a family base, or hosting small groups and retreats. The home is nestled within established tropical landscaping, where native plants, fruit trees, and ornamental flora create a private, tranquil setting that feels both curated and wild.
Flowing pathways lead through the gardens and down to the river’s edge, where you can fish at dawn, take a refreshing swim in your own stretch of river, or paddle a kayak straight into Dominical. Wildlife thrives in this corridor — howler monkeys, vibrant birds, and butterflies regularly pass through the property, adding a dynamic and ever-changing connection to nature.
In addition to the primary home, a self-contained one-bedroom casita offers additional comfort and privacy, ideal for hosting friends, accommodating long-term guests, or creating an inspiring studio or workspace. The property also features three independent rental units, currently operating and income-producing. Whether your focus is vacation rentals, digital nomads, or longer stays, the configuration allows for flexibility and autonomy, with private spaces and shared natural amenities.
At the heart of the riverside area sits an impressive open-air rancho and bar, perched to take full advantage of elevated views and cool breezes off the water. Fully equipped and beautifully positioned, this structure is perfect for entertaining, outdoor dining, or running small events such as wellness workshops, chef’s dinners, or group retreats. It offers a functional yet atmospheric space that enhances the overall guest and host experience.
The location is another standout feature: peaceful and secure, yet only five minutes from the energy of Dominical — a town celebrated for its surf breaks, eclectic dining, wellness scene, and international appeal. Whether by the paved access or a scenic riverside trail, reaching town is effortless, allowing residents and guests to enjoy both seclusion and connection.
With its income-generating elements, turnkey infrastructure, and one-of-a-kind riverfront access, this property presents a compelling opportunity for entrepreneurs, nature lovers, or anyone looking to live a more grounded, intentional lifestyle. It’s the kind of place where you can spend your mornings in the water, your afternoons working from a hammock, and your evenings entertaining under the stars — all while generating income from the comfort of your own land.
